Why do you need both an ioctl and a netlink interface?

Well, I would like to keep support for both netlink and ioctl.
Internally we are using a netlink interface, and oFono is using ioctl to create interfaces.

we could try to convert oFono in using netlink. Shouldn't be that hard
as long as it is RTNL. Only the generic netlink is painful in userspace
applications with a mainloop.
