There's a chapter in "Understanding The Linux Kernel" that talks about signal.
Just a simple example:
sig_send(SIG_xxx, process, 0);
You have to decide how best to find out which process you want to send the signal to.
Btw, I added signal sending into the netif_carrier_on, so that I can receive a signal whenever the computer reattaches to the network.
Is there any other way where I can monitor the bits for the link on without the ugly hack or constant polling using netif_carrier_ok?
thanks in advance!
