[patch 4/6 v2] Wait for link ready before use the interface

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Some network driver will take long time to initialize. We have an example
in a HP machine which take about one minute for this. The callback such as
"ip link set <dev> up" will fail, afterwards setup for network will also
fail.

Fix this by add a new function wait_for_if_link, wait the link ready before
use it.
