# libgtpnl - netlink library for Linux kernel GTP

In order to control the kernel-side GTP-U plane (`gtp` driver), a
netlink based control interface between GTP-C in userspace and GTP-U in
kernelspace was invented.

The encoding and decoding of these control messages is implemented in
this *libgtpnl* (library for GTP netlink).

libgtpnl is part of the [Osmocom](https://osmocom.org/) Open Source
Mobile Communications project.
