rtnl_link_get_stat(link, RTNL_LINK_RX_PACKETS) returns zero in libnl-3.5.0

Question: Retry when MSG_CTRUNC without checking for flags?

1

I was reading the code for `nl_recv` and https://github.com/thom311/libnl/blob/397d880a884866100270fec1899b7edbc2c2fa9f/lib/nl.c#L720-L737 is it correct to retry the read without first checking for `flags`? wouldn't you discard the packet?
