From 3de21a8990d3c2cc507e9cc4ed00f36358d5b93e Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Stanislaw Gruszka Date: Mon, 12 Feb 2024 17:16:13 +0100 Subject: genetlink: Add per family bind/unbind callbacks Add genetlink family bind()/unbind() callbacks when adding/removing multicast group to/from netlink client socket via setsockopt() or bind() syscall. They can be used to track if consumers of netlink multicast messages emerge or disappear. Thus, a client implementing callbacks, can now send events only when there are active consumers, preventing unnecessary work when none exist.
