Subject: imx28evk: Ethernet Plug/Unplug Event not working

Hello Friends,

I am using Linux kernel 3.10.32 on I.MX 28 EVK board. On that I couldn't able to get any netlink messages from kernel on Ethernet Plug/Unplug event.

I am using opensource program netlink.c (http://pastebin.com/CA8NThAS) to listen on all the netlink messages from kernel.

root@...28evk:~# ./netlink
[   79.971113] libphy: 800f0000.etherne:00 - Link is Down
[   85.291482] libphy: 800f0000.etherne:00 - Link is Up - 100/Full
...

There is also udev rule defined as below which is not called: 
root@...28evk:~# cat /etc/udev/rules.d/autonet.rules
# Handle network interface setup
SUBSYSTEM=="net", ACTION=="add" RUN+="/etc/udev/scripts/network.sh"
SUBSYSTEM=="net", ACTION=="remove" RUN+="/etc/udev/scripts/network.sh"

Could anyone share what I need to add to Ethernet driver to enable the kernel to send the messages?

Please share if you need more information.

Regards,
Ankur
