Hi,
I'am doing my first steps in the world op kernel programming.
And i'am trying to port a 2.0 patch to a 2.4.20 kernel.
And somewhere in the patch is see the following code
in net/core/dev.c
<code>
struct device *main_dev = net_alias_main_dev(dev);
+ if(main_dev->do_ioctl==NULL)
+ return -EOPNOTSUPP;
+ ret=main_dev->do_ioctl(dev, &ifr, getset);
+ break;
</code>
What does this net_alias_main_dev() function do?
And does it still exists in 2.4 or is it replaced by another function.
I can't seem to find something about it in my 2.4.20 src
groet
Leo
