Subject: netdev + callout rules
Date: Thu, 01 Apr 2004 10:13:31 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <406BEB4B.5030805@suse.de> (raw)
Hi all,
I'm not sure whether I'm following the netdev change for udev. AFAIK
udev has been changed to also handle net requests, so that the interface
name of a new interface can be changed nameif-like within udev.
Ok so far.
But: What if one assumed that the add net device event will also setup
the interface itself via a call to 'ifconfig' or 'ifup'?
Do we have a callout rule in udev which is run _after_ the device node
(or, in this case, the nameif call) has been run?
Otherwise I don't really see much point in running udev for net events,
as our current ifup already uses nameif to rename the interface ...
But who knows, maybe there is something totally obvious which I'd
overlooked.
Cheers,
Hannes
