Steps: 1. create some network aliases. ifconfig command returns list eth0 eth0:0 eth0:1 lo 2. create AF_NETLINK socket and send RTM_GETADDR message to it 3. received events: RTM_NEWADDR IFA_LABEL : "lo" ifa_index : 0 RTM_NEWADDR IFA_LABEL : "eth0" ifa_index : 1 RTM_NEWADDR IFA_LABEL : "eth0:0" ifa_index : 1 RTM_NEWADDR IFA_LABEL : "eth0:1" ifa_index : 1 4. delete network alias "eth0:1", than "eth0:0" 5. received events RTM_DELADDR IFA_LABEL : "eth0:1" ifa_index : 1 RTM_DELADDR IFA_LABEL : "eth0:0" ifa_index : 1
Is there a way to get right address index? I want to make one-to-one correspondence between address and data pointer. Without right address index I cant use simple dynamic array. I have to perform event's address hashing and use hash table or tree.
