Hi,

how is a daemon supposed to get informed that a network interface has been
created? I had hoped, that an RTM_IFINFO message would be created on the
routing socket, but this is not the case. If an interface is destroyed,
the routing socket gets a message for whatever reason. Wouldn't it be
simple to just create an RTM_IFINFO message?
