// https://docs.kernel.org/userspace-api/netlink/intro.html

// - netfilter generic message [4 bytes]
// struct nfgenmsg (definition: https://github.com/torvalds/linux/blob/v6.7/include/uapi/linux/netfilter/nfnetlink.h#L32-L38)

//
// Attribute Components:
// - length [2 bytes]
// length includes bytes for defining the length itself, bytes for defining the type,
// and the actual bytes of data without any padding.
// - type [2 bytes]
// - data [variable-sized]
// - padding [optional]
//
// Example. Counter{Name: "dummy-metric", Packets: 123, Bytes: 54321} in netlink message:
//
// struct nfgenmsg{
// __u8 nfgen_family: AF_NETLINK
// __u8 version: nl.NFNETLINK_V0

// }

// __u16 nla_len: 13
// __u16 nla_type: NFACCT_NAME
// char data: dummy-metric\0
// }
//
// (padding:)
// data: \0\0\0
//

// __u16 nla_len: 12
