+ * Data Structures:
+ *   struct nlattr			netlink attribute header
+ *
+ * Attribute Construction:
+ *   nla_reserve(skb, type, len)	reserve room for an attribute
+ *   nla_reserve_nohdr(skb, len)	reserve room for an attribute w/o hdr
+ *   nla_put(skb, type, len, data)	add attribute to skb
+ *   nla_put_nohdr(skb, len, data)	add attribute w/o hdr
+ *   nla_append(skb, len, data)		append data to skb

+ *   NLA_PUT_MSECS(skb, type, jiffies)	add msecs attribute to skb
+ *
+ *   The meaning of these functions is equal to their lower case
+ *   variants but they jump to the label nla_put_failure in case
+ *   of a failure.
+ *
+ * Nested Attributes Construction:
+ *   nla_nest_start(skb, type)		start a nested attribute
+ *   nla_nest_end(skb, nla)		finalize a nested attribute

+ *   nla_strlcpy(dst, nla, size)	copy attribute to a sized string
+ *   nla_strcmp(nla, str)		compare attribute with string
+ *
+ * Attribute Parsing:
+ *   nla_ok(nla, remaining)		does nla fit into remaining bytes?
