I've inherited an LKM that implements a proprietary tunneling protocol. I've noticed that it never calls any netif_*_queue() routines. For example, the driver doesn't call start/stop queue from its open/cose routines. I can understand not doing flow control, since there's no physical device. I just want to make sure the open/close logic is correct. I could simply add the start/stop queue calls, but the driver needs to be source-code compatible to both 2.2 and 2.4 kernel streams. I'd rather not clutter it up with ifdefs if I don't have to. It seems to run fine. Do I leave it as-is or go to the trouble? -- Gary Cote Transat Technologies, Inc. - : send the line "unsubscribe linux-net" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
