This allows reading and updating of existing entries, as well as creating new ones (and new expect's) via nfnetlink. Please note the 'strange' byte order: nfattr (tag+length) are in host byte order, while the payload is always guaranteed to be in network byte order. This allows a simple userspace process to encapsulate netlink messages into arch-independent udp packets by just processing/swapping the headers and not knowing anything about the actual payload.
