Netlink has a confirmation/error reporting mechanism for the sent messages. Kernel explicitly acks each messages if requested (NLM_F_ACK) or if message processing results in an error. Similarly, for multipart messages - typically dumps, where each message represents a single object like an interface or a route - another message, NLMSG_DONE is used to indicate the end of dump and the resulting status. As a result, successfull dump ends with both NLMSG_DONE and NLMSG_ERROR messages. RFC 3549 does not say anything specific about such case. Linux adopted an optimisation which suppresses NLMSG_ERROR message when NLMSG_DONE is already sent. Certain libraries/applications like libnl depends on such behavior. Suppress sending NLMSG_ERROR if NLMSG_DONE is already sent, by setting newly-added 'suppress_ack' flag in the writer and checking this flag when generating ack. This change restores libnl compatibility.

FreeBSD Source:
This is the top level of the FreeBSD source directory.
FreeBSD is an operating system used to power modern servers, desktops, and embedded platforms. A large community has continually developed it for more than thirty years. Its advanced networking, security, and storage features have made FreeBSD the platform of choice for many of the busiest web sites and most pervasive embedded networking and storage devices.
For copyright information, please see the file COPYRIGHT in this directory. Additional copyright information also exists for some sources in this tree - please see the specific source directories for more information.
The Makefile in this directory supports a number of targets for building components (or all) of the FreeBSD source tree. See build(7), config(8), FreeBSD handbook on building userland, and Handbook for kernels for more information, including setting make(1) variables.
For information on the CPU architectures and platforms supported by FreeBSD, see the FreeBSD website's Platforms page.
