/**
 * @ingroup rtnl
 * @defgroup neigh Neighbours
 * @brief
 *
 * The neighbour table establishes bindings between protocol addresses and
 * link layer addresses for hosts sharing the same physical link. This
 * module allows you to access and manipulate the content of these tables.
 *
 * @par Neighbour States
 * @code
 * NUD_INCOMPLETE
 * NUD_REACHABLE
 * NUD_STALE
 * NUD_DELAY
 * NUD_PROBE
 * NUD_FAILED
 * NUD_NOARP
 * NUD_PERMANENT
 * @endcode
 *
 * @par Neighbour Flags
 * @code
 * NTF_USE
 * NTF_PROXY
 * NTF_ROUTER
 * @endcode
 *
 * @par Neighbour Identification
 * A neighbour is uniquely identified by the attributes listed below, whenever
 * you refer to an existing neighbour all of the attributes must be set.
 * Neighbours from caches automatically have all required attributes set.
 *   - interface index (rtnl_neigh_set_ifindex())
 *   - destination address (rtnl_neigh_set_dst())
 *
 * @par Changeable Attributes
 * \anchor neigh_changeable
 *  - state (rtnl_neigh_set_state())
 *  - link layer address (rtnl_neigh_set_lladdr())
 *
 * @par Required Caches for Dumping
 * In order to dump neighbour attributes you must provide the following
 * caches via nl_cache_provide()
 *  - link cache holding all links
 *
 * @par TODO
 *   - Document proxy settings
 *   - Document states and their influence
 *
 * @par 1) Retrieving information about configured neighbours
 * @code
 * // The first step is to retrieve a list of all available neighbour within
 * // the kernel and put them into a cache.
 * struct nl_cache *cache = rtnl_neigh_alloc_cache(sk);
 *
 * // Neighbours can then be looked up by the interface and destination
 * // address:
 * struct rtnl_neigh *neigh = rtnl_neigh_get(cache, ifindex, dst_addr);
 * 
 * // After successful usage, the object must be given back to the cache
 * rtnl_neigh_put(neigh);
 * @endcode
 *
 * @par 2) Adding new neighbours
 * @code
 * // Allocate an empty neighbour handle to be filled out with the attributes
 * // of the new neighbour.
 * struct rtnl_neigh *neigh = rtnl_neigh_alloc();
 *
 * // Fill out the attributes of the new neighbour
 * rtnl_neigh_set_ifindex(neigh, ifindex);
 * rtnl_neigh_set_dst(neigh, dst_addr);
 * rtnl_neigh_set_state(neigh, rtnl_neigh_str2state("permanent"));
 *
 * // Build the netlink message and send it to the kernel, the operation will
 * // block until the operation has been completed. Alternatively the required
 * // netlink message can be built using rtnl_neigh_build_add_request()
 * // to be sent out using nl_send_auto_complete().
 * rtnl_neigh_add(sk, neigh, NLM_F_CREATE);
 *
 * // Free the memory
 * rtnl_neigh_put(neigh);
 * @endcode
 *
 * @par 3) Deleting an existing neighbour
 * @code
 * // Allocate an empty neighbour object to be filled out with the attributes
 * // matching the neighbour to be deleted. Alternatively a fully equipped
 * // neighbour object out of a cache can be used instead.
 * struct rtnl_neigh *neigh = rtnl_neigh_alloc();
 *
 * // Neighbours are uniquely identified by their interface index and
 * // destination address, you may fill out other attributes but they
 * // will have no influence.
 * rtnl_neigh_set_ifindex(neigh, ifindex);
 * rtnl_neigh_set_dst(neigh, dst_addr);
 *
 * // Build the netlink message and send it to the kernel, the operation will
 * // block until the operation has been completed. Alternatively the required
 * // netlink message can be built using rtnl_neigh_build_delete_request()
 * // to be sent out using nl_send_auto_complete().
 * rtnl_neigh_delete(sk, neigh, 0);
 *
 * // Free the memory
 * rtnl_neigh_put(neigh);
 * @endcode
 *
 * @par 4) Changing neighbour attributes
 * @code
 * // Allocate an empty neighbour object to be filled out with the attributes
 * // matching the neighbour to be changed and the new parameters. Alternatively
 * // a fully equipped modified neighbour object out of a cache can be used.
 * struct rtnl_neigh *neigh = rtnl_neigh_alloc();
 *
 * // Identify the neighbour to be changed by its interface index and
 * // destination address
 * rtnl_neigh_set_ifindex(neigh, ifindex);
 * rtnl_neigh_set_dst(neigh, dst_addr);
 *
 * // The link layer address may be modified, if so it is wise to change
 * // its state to "permanent" in order to avoid having it overwritten.
 * rtnl_neigh_set_lladdr(neigh, lladdr);
 *
 * // Secondly the state can be modified allowing normal neighbours to be
 * // converted into permanent entries or to manually confirm a neighbour.
 * rtnl_neigh_set_state(neigh, state);
 *
 * // Build the netlink message and send it to the kernel, the operation will
 * // block until the operation has been completed. Alternatively the required
 * // netlink message can be built using rtnl_neigh_build_change_request()
 * // to be sent out using nl_send_auto_complete().
 * rtnl_neigh_add(sk, neigh, NLM_F_REPLACE);
 *
 * // Free the memory
 * rtnl_neigh_put(neigh);
 * @endcode
