net_device structure and initilization

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

 



Hi all,
I read following statement in linux device driver 3 for network device driver.

"struct net_device is always put together at runtime; it cannot be set up at compile time in the same manner as a file_operations or block_device_operations structure."

can anybody plz explain me the runtime and compile time behaviour of all these devices.

Thanks and Regards,
Deepak Joshi.
