Date: Sat, 4 Aug 2018 11:30:37 -0400 (EDT) From: "Robert P. J. Day" <rpjday@...shcourse.ca> To: Linux kernel ntedev mailing list <netdev@...r.kernel.org> Subject: for newbies, it would be useful to document values of netdev_state_t i'm sure this is second nature for the experts here, but in netdevice.h: /* These flag bits are private to the generic network queueing * layer; they may not be explicitly referenced by any other * code. */ enum netdev_state_t { __LINK_STATE_START, __LINK_STATE_PRESENT, __LINK_STATE_NOCARRIER, __LINK_STATE_LINKWATCH_PENDING, __LINK_STATE_DORMANT, }; it would be handy to have a short explanation of what each state represents, perhaps what combinations are possible and how one moves from one state to another. rday -- ======================================================================== Robert P.
