Subject: Q: netdev: generate kobject uevent on network events.
Date: Wed, 9 Dec 2009 18:02:51 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20091209170251.GA11650@sig21.net> (raw)

Hi Stephen,

about a year ago you posted a patch which allows to manage
network hotplug via udev (or busybox mdev), which is useful
for low-end embedded platforms that don't want to run ifplugd.

http://article.gmane.org/gmane.linux.hotplug.devel/13386

The patch still works with 2.6.32.  Can it get merged or
were there any issues with it?  It seems the discussion
just stopped and the patch was forgotten...


Johannes
