Subject: [PATCH] make ibmveth link always up
Date: Tue, 16 Nov 2004 18:05:00 -0600 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <419A95AC.9030201@us.ibm.com> (raw)
[-- Attachment #1: Type: text/plain, Size: 345 bytes --]
Andrew,
The attached patch makes the ibmveth driver indicate that its link is
always up rather than always down, thus allowing the userspace side of
booting to configure the network interface correctly.
Please apply,
