[PATCH net-next v4 07/10] netlink: specs: rt-route: add route notifications

From: Yuyang Huang

Date: Wed Jul 29 2026 - 08:52:39 EST


Declare the RTM_NEWROUTE and RTM_DELROUTE notifications and the route
multicast groups, so that generated clients can subscribe to route
changes. Both notifications reuse the getroute reply attributes.
