It should be documented somewhere, but at present it's only implemented for the bcm kernel, and raspberry pi doesn't have a plan9.ini.
I think that cmdline.txt should be described in plan9.ini(8)
(It should be possible to move etherusb.c to /sys/src/9/port and use it on other platforms too. But it's a bit of an ugly hack.)
The performance of the usb/ether driver without etherusb is much, much worse. I think is a good idea to move it to port. Those devices are very common nowadays, and can save your day if your ethernet card breaks, or if your new computer has incompatible drivers, etc. What I would love to see is the kernel creating the '#l' device when a usb ethernet card is attached, and destroy it when the card is unplugged. But that's the dream of an ignorant, that would already been done if it were feasible, I suppose. ------------------------------------------ 9fans: 9fans Permalink: https://9fans.topicbox.com/groups/9fans/T668643d11149fab4-M7a30ac10a19a0a86b37f471e Delivery options: https://9fans.topicbox.com/groups/9fans/subscription
