My real purpose is to read driver-specific /proc file, e.g /proc/net/PRO_LAN_ADAPTERS/eth0.info for e1000 driver or /proc/net/sk98lin/eth1.info for sk98lin driver. To do that, i have to know what file read for a given interface. I'd prefer to use ethtool ioctls, but there are drivers that do not implement them.
Thanks.
Felix.

Hi, folks
What is the standard way to find correspondence between
device (e.g. eth2) and driver name (e.g. eepro100) in a
system where several drivers may be loaded ?
I assume you are speaking for user space scripts. I think the best way to find out what network your packets to ethx will go to is to check MAC addresses.
