Issue #9779 has been updated by Orion Poplawski.
Wired:
# cat em1/uevent
INTERFACE=em1
IFINDEX=3
Wireless:
# cat p1p1/uevent
DEVTYPE=wlan
INTERFACE=p1p1
IFINDEX=4
I also have an irda0 interface for infrared. Looking at some distinguishing
characteristics:
# cat {em1,irda0,lo,p1p1}/type
1
783
772
1
No idea where these numbers come from.
uevent is the same:
# cat irda0/uevent
INTERFACE=irda0
IFINDEX=2
The address and addr_len are different too. Not sure how useful that is.
