+ * General overview:
+ * full generic netlink message:
+ * |nlmsghdr|genlmsghdr|<payload>
+ *
+ * payload:
+ * |optional fixed size family header|<sequence of netlink attributes>
+ *
+ * sequence of netlink attributes:
+ * I chose to have all "top level" attributes NLA_NESTED,
+ * corresponding to some real struct.
+ * So we have a sequence of |tla, len|<nested nla sequence>
+ *
+ * nested nla sequence:
+ * may be empty, or contain a sequence of netlink attributes
+ * representing the struct fields.
+ *
+ * The tag number of any field (regardless of containing struct)
+ * will be available as T_ ## field_name,
+ * so you cannot have the same field name in two differnt structs.
+ *
+ * The tag numbers themselves are per struct, though,
+ * so should always begin at 1 (not 0, that is the special "NLA_UNSPEC" type,
+ * which we won't use here).
+ * The tag numbers are used as index in the respective nla_policy array.
+ *
+ * GENL_struct(tag_name, tag_number, struct name, struct fields) - struct and policy
+ *	genl_magic_struct.h
+ *		generates the struct declaration,
+ *		generates an entry in the tla enum,
+ *	genl_magic_func.h
+ *		generates an entry in the static tla policy
+ *		with .type = NLA_NESTED
+ *		generates the static <struct_name>_nl_policy definition,
+ *		and static conversion functions
+ *
+ *	genl_magic_func.h
+ *
+ * GENL_mc_group(group)
+ *	genl_magic_struct.h
+ *		does nothing
+ *	genl_magic_func.h
+ *		defines and registers the mcast group,
+ *		and provides a send helper
+ *
+ * GENL_notification(op_name, op_num, mcast_group, tla list)
+ *	These are notifications to userspace.
+ *
+ *	genl_magic_struct.h
+ *		generates an entry in the genl_ops enum,
+ *	genl_magic_func.h
+ *		does nothing
+ *
+ *	mcast group: the name of the mcast group this notification should be
+ *	expected on
+ *	tla list: the list of expected top level attributes,
+ *	for documentation and sanity checking.
+ *
+ * GENL_op(op_name, op_num, flags and handler, tla list) - "genl operations"
+ *	These are requests from userspace.
+ *
+ *	_op and _notification share the same "number space",
+ *	op_nr will be assigned to "genlmsghdr->cmd"
+ *
+ *	genl_magic_struct.h
+ *		generates an entry in the genl_ops enum,
+ *	genl_magic_func.h
+ *		generates an entry in the static genl_ops array,
+ *		and static register/unregister functions to
+ *		genl_register_family_with_ops().
+ *
+ *	flags and handler:
+ *		GENL_op_init( .doit = x, .dumpit = y, .flags = something)
+ *		GENL_doit(x) => .dumpit = NULL, .flags = GENL_ADMIN_PERM
+ *	tla list: the list of expected top level attributes,
