Hi Dave,
It is easier for some applications to deal with text based
interfaces
like uevent, rather than using netlink to listen for events.
Note, this does not deal with network namespaces but that is a
generic
problem that already exists with kobjects (see rename events).

...
do we wanna copy just what ifconfig shows or do we might be a more
intelligent and have separate variables like RUNNING=1 etc.?
Was arbitrary choice to just use same flags as existing ifconfig.
What ever feels best I guess...
So what do folks want me to do here? Should I put Stephen's
latest patch in, or do we want to make some kind of flags change?
I am thinking of using per value variables. My personal choice.
Kay, any pointers or opinions from you?
Regards
Marcel
