Hi,

I wish to find out exactly when my network card come up. I'm using the
e1000 driver/intel card and find that the driver is instantiated after
2-3 seconds after it is located. The dmesg then  shows the following
message:

 e1000: eth0: e1000_watchdog: NIC Link is Up 100 Mbps Full Duplex

Is there anyway to figure out when this condition is true? I used
netif_carrier_ok() and netif_running(). Both return true but the link
is not up and the packet i send does not get sent. Any ideas on any
function I can loop to check if the link is actually up?

Regards,
Asim
