hi...
i am asking this question in the wrong group..bear with me..
i am writing a driver for USB device in linux.i need to get the usb interface up from the
probe(this is because i cant assume that the usb device is attached when the driver is installed
and also for plug 'n' play).
is there anyway by which i can invoke a script from a module in kernel space!!!
You could implement a userspace module that would get triggered by events in the kernel
module, and one such trigger can configure the interface for you. I can think of ioctl or
sockopts as some abstracts. May be you are looking for this.
whenever i plug out the device and plug it in again i dont want to explicitly bring the device up
using 'ifconfig' which is what i am doin now and is painful...is there anyway out,,,
thanx in advance
