+Subject: [PATCH] examples: genl: fix wrong attribute size
+
+This example no longer works on more recent kernels:
+
+genl-family-get
+error: Invalid argument
+
+dmesg says:
+netlink: 'genl-family-get': attribute type 1 has an invalid length.
+
+Fix this and also zero out the reserved field in the genl header,
+while not validated yet for dumps this could change.
+
+Upstream-Status: Backport [https://git.netfilter.org/libmnl/patch/?id=54dea548d796653534645c6e3c8577eaf7d77411]
