About this package

Native libnl P/Invoke surface for Netlink.Managed.

libnl-dotnet

libnl-backed .NET 10 bindings and high-level helpers for Linux netlink/rtnetlink operations (VRF, bridge, veth, VXLAN, addresses, routes).

Requirements

Runtime:

• Linux
• .NET 10 runtime
• libnl-3 + libnl-route-3 runtime libraries

Runtime policy:

• Production/native mode is supported on Linux amd64 only.
• On Linux amd64, platform initialization validates required libnl libraries/symbols and fails fast when missing.
• On non-Linux hosts (for example Windows development in Visual Studio), the platform runs in documented no-op mode.
• Linux non-amd64 runtimes are not supported for native operations.

Development / CI:

• .NET 10 SDK
• iproute2 / ip
• pkg-config
• gcc (for ABI probe compilation in integration tests)
• libnl development headers
  • Rocky: libnl3-devel
  • Ubuntu 24.04: libnl-3-dev, libnl-route-3-dev
  • Debian 13: libnl-3-dev, libnl-route-3-dev

Helper setup scripts:

• ./eng/setup-rocky.sh
• ./eng/setup-ubuntu.sh
• ./eng/setup-debian.sh

Native library resolution policy (Linux amd64):

• libnl-3.so.200 (fallback: libnl-3.so, nl-3)
• libnl-route-3.so.200 (fallback: libnl-route-3.so, nl-route-3)

Projects

• src/Netlink.Managed.Native
• src/Netlink.Managed
• tests/Netlink.Managed.UnitTests
• tests/Netlink.Managed.Fuzz
• tests/Netlink.Managed.IntegrationTests

Running

Build:

dotnet build libnl-dotnet.slnx

Fast local validation:

./eng/test.sh fast

Full artifact run (root, Linux):

sudo ./eng/test.sh full

Targeted root suites:

sudo ./eng/test.sh abi
sudo ./eng/test.sh integration
sudo ./eng/test.sh stress
sudo ./eng/test.sh leak

Legacy direct runners remain available:

• ./eng/run-tests-with-artifacts.sh
• ./eng/run-root-integration.sh
• ./eng/run-fuzz-smoke.sh

Artifacts for full mode are written to artifacts/test-runs/<timestamp>/ and include per-suite TRX/logs, summary.txt, and run-manifest.json.

The ABI suite builds libnm_abi_probe.so from tests/Netlink.Managed.IntegrationTests/native/abi_probe.c using gcc + pkg-config.

NuGet Packaging

Create packages:

./eng/pack-nuget.sh

Version override (applies to both Netlink.Managed.Native and Netlink.Managed):

PACKAGE_VERSION=1.0.1 ./eng/pack-nuget.sh

Outputs:

• NuGet packages in artifacts/nuget/
• Release bundle directory in artifacts/release/netlink-managed-<version>/
• Release tarball in artifacts/release/netlink-managed-<version>-nuget.tar.gz
• Release zip in artifacts/release/netlink-managed-<version>-nuget.zip (when zip is available)
