Hello,

I have a fairly quick one: Is there an ioctl flag/call which can be used
to find out the "type" of the interface being used ?
I would like to somehow be able to tell in my application whether the
interface in question is of type ETHERNET or ATM or FRAME_RELAY etc.

Any/all help will be greatly appreciated.

See net/core/dev.c:dev_ifsioc + SIOCGIFHWADDR + include/linux/if_arp.h
+ google/search?q=linux+ioctl+device+hardware+type&btnG=Google+Search
+ man ioctl_list
