> Usage
> =====
> - Load module:
>     modprobe flame [debuglevel=]  [flm_topo_timer=]
>       : debug level, default: 1
>       : topology check timer (in seconds), default: 5
> - Open/close a device with:
>     echo "up   []" > /proc/net/flame/cmd
>     echo "down " > /proc/net/flame/cmd
>       : name of FLAME device, e.g. flm0
>       : comma-separated list of MAC devices (at least one) that are
>       used below the FLAME device. All of these must be up.
>     : comma-separated list of MAC addresses of devices
>       for which traffic should be ignored; each MAC address should
>       be a semicolon-separated list of 6 hex-pairs
> - Get current forwarding info from FLAME:
>     cat /proc/net/flame/fwd
> - Get nodes/cost information from MACINFO:
>     cat /proc/net/macinfo


Use of /proc for an API is no longer desirable. Please rewrite.
