--- Comment #2 from Petr Pisar <ppisar at redhat.com> 2012-03-30 04:51:10 EDT ---
The t/20io-socket-netlink-generic.t:55 test checks serialization of

my $message = $genlsock->new_message(
   nlmsg_type => 30,
   cmd => 1,
   version => 2
);

netlink(7) defines netlink header as:

struct nlmsghdr {
  __u32 nlmsg_len;    /* Length of message including header. */
  __u16 nlmsg_type;   /* Type of message content. */
  __u16 nlmsg_flags;  /* Additional flags. */
  __u32 nlmsg_seq;    /* Sequence number. */
  __u32 nlmsg_pid;    /* PID of the sending process. */
};

So I think the expected

00 00 00 14 00 00 00 1e 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00

is wrong since the type (30 = 0x1e) should occupy two bytes only. Here it spans
to nlmsg_flags field.
