I'm reading audit messages through a netlink socket but it seems that in
Jessie running linux 3.16.0-4 the message length in the message header does
not account the payload size, always get sizeof( struct nlmsghdr ) no
matter how many bytes is read from socket.

Someone can point me in the direction to check this messages in the other
end of this socket?
