Netlink

Netlink is like a secret telephone line that different parts of a computer can use to talk to each other. It's like how you might have a special phone that only your best friend can call you on. Netlink is kind of like that, but for computer parts.

For example, if one part of the computer wants to know some information from another part, it can pick up the "netlink phone" and make a call. The other part can then answer the call and send over the information.

Netlink is really useful because it means that different parts of the computer can communicate without having to use lots of complicated code or workarounds. It's like having a secret back door that certain parts of the computer can use to bypass any obstacles in their way.

Overall, netlink is just a way for different computer parts to stay connected and work together, making things run smoother and more efficiently.
