hardware not raising interrupts

2001-01-30 Thread Suma H R
Hi, We are writing a network device driver for an ethernet interface network card. The hardware IRQ status register shows an Interrupt to be Pending. But, vmstat -i doesn't show any interrupts from our device. Any idea why it could be happening? Thanks, Suma To Unsubscribe: send mail

Pseudo ethernet interface

2001-01-24 Thread Suma H R
Hi, Is it possible to provide pseudo ethernet interfaces? Can we associate an IP and MAC address with a psuedo ethernet interface to facilitate data packet transmission & reception through that? If so, how does it work? Pointers to any documentation in this regard will be appreciated. Tha
