Subject: [PATCH net-next 2/5] net: rpmsg-eth: Add basic rpmsg skeleton
Date: Wed, 23 Jul 2025 13:33:19 +0530 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250723080322.3047826-3-danishanwar@ti.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20250723080322.3047826-1-danishanwar@ti.com>
This patch introduces a basic RPMSG Ethernet driver skeleton. It adds
support for creating virtual Ethernet devices over RPMSG channels,
allowing user-space programs to send and receive messages using a
standard Ethernet protocol. The driver includes message handling,
probe, and remove functions, along with necessary data structures.
