Any progress towards getting the netdev_ops into 2.4? I have several patches that would benefit (in that no new ioctls would be needed) if this goes in. Thanks, Ben -- Ben Greear <greearb@xxxxxxxxxxx

If anything, it's going to go into 2.6.x first, and then backported to 2.4.x after it's had a few months of testing and tweaking.

Not really. Nobody is really helped with this, not even you. It makes almost no sense to make a driver only work with a 2.4.x kernel that has this netdev-ops-lite thing patched into it, because then

Your patch adds ethtool stuff, which works perfectly fine on all platforms, even sparc64 when executing 32-bit binaries. Just add it to your drivers if you want them supported in 2.4.x You're not add

Making ethtool interfaces available on every net device is not right, what about the ISDN folks? What if they specifically want ethtool ioctls to fail for their devices? How can one accomplish that a

This is not for you to decide. That is the driver author's choice. Also, succeeding for _ANY_ ethtool command is going to give a tool the impression that other basic ethtool commands should work too.

Precisely yes, this is why they have the option of not providing the ->get_stats() method by leaving it set to NULL. Nice cop out. Netlink is the standard method to obtain information about network d
