Subject: "eth%d" - net dev name in 2.6?
Date: Tue, 9 Mar 2004 18:33:08 -0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20040310023308.GU31326@mvista.com> (raw)
With swarm running on 2.6 I just saw the net dev names are
not set correctly. See below.
eth%d: SiByte Ethernet at 0x10064000, address: 00-02-4C-FE-0C-B2
eth%d: enabling TCP rcv checksum
It appears alloc_netdev() assigns this initial name and nobody
later resets it to a more meaningful name.
Any body has a clue here? I don't think it is driver's job though ...
Thanks.
Jun
