Currently, rtnl_fdb_dump() assumes the family header is 'struct ifinfomsg',
which is not always true -- 'struct ndmsg' is used by iproute2 ('ip neigh').
The problem is, the function bails out early if nlmsg_parse() fails, which
does occur for iproute2 usage of 'struct ndmsg' because the payload length
is shorter than the family header alone (as 'struct ifinfomsg' is assumed).
This breaks backward compatibility with userspace -- nothing is sent back.
Some examples with iproute2 and netlink library for go [1]:
1) $ bridge fdb show
33:33:00:00:00:01 dev ens3 self permanent
01:00:5e:00:00:01 dev ens3 self permanent
33:33:ff:15:98:30 dev ens3 self permanent
This one works, as it uses 'struct ifinfomsg'.
fdb_show() @ iproute2/bridge/fdb.c
"""
.n.nlmsg_len = NLMSG_LENGTH(sizeof(struct ifinfomsg)),
...
if (rtnl_dump_request(&rth, RTM_GETNEIGH, [...]
"""
2) $ ip --family bridge neigh

This one fails, as it uses 'struct ndmsg'.

This one fails, as it uses 'struct ndmsg'-based.
