Welcome to strace!
As I said in a previous post, the structured output is not for the
faint of heart as it would touch a
_lot_ of strace code.
Check the mailing list archive for related discussions and patches. [1]
You can also check pointers in the wiki pages [2]

Unrelated, your post subject seems to be about sockets and netlink,
not a structured output.
