http://bugzilla.xensource.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=706 Summary: [PATCH] netfront: support ethtool's get_link() Product: Xen Version: unstable Platform: All OS/Version: Linux Status: NEW Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: Guest-OS AssignedTo: xen-bugs@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx ReportedBy: markmc@xxxxxxxxxx http://lists.xensource.com/archives/html/xen-devel/2006-07/msg00532.html Attached is a very simple patch to support ethtool's get_link() operation. This allows things like NetworkManager's and anaconda's carrier detection code to work with netfront. It seems sane to take the simple approach of reporting the link as active as soon as we've connected to the backend device. It's irrelevant whether the physical device in dom0 has link, since there could well be someone else on the bridge responding. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.xensource.com/bugzilla/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the assignee for the bug, or are watching the assignee. _______________________________________________ Xen-bugs mailing list Xen-bugs@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.xensource.com/xen-bugs
