Subject: Are there events when eth carrier changes state?
Date: Fri, 21 Nov 2008 18:24:24 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1227291864l.18799l.3l@mofo> (raw)

Hi,

I see that eth0 has a ATTR{carrier}.
Are there any events that could be used
to trigger RUN rules when that changes?

How about ATTR{operstate}?

If not, is there somewhere I should be
looking besides udev?

There's a comment in the list archives
back in 2001 from Andrew Morton saying
that "better netdevice manageability"
is a goal, but I can't find any
further reference.

Thank you.
