       The  genl  utility  provides  a simple frontend to the generic netlink library. Although it's designed to
       support multiple OBJECTs, for now only the ctrl object is available, which is used to query  the  generic
       netlink controller.

   ctrl
       The generic netlink controller can be queried in various ways:

       help   This command just prints a help text for the ctrl object.

       list   Show the registered netlink users.

       monitor
              Listen for generic netlink notifications.

       get    Query the controller for a given user, identified either by name or id.
