Hi Robert
You should probably post the driver for review. A well written driver
should not even need t
more annoying pedantry ... from include/uapi/linux/if.h:
* @IFF_RUNNING: interface RFC2863 OPER_UP. Volatile.
however, both the code in net/core/dev.c:
/**
* netif_oper_up - test if device is operational
* @dev: network device
*
* Check if carrier is operational
*/
static
