Under Linux IFNAMSIZ is 16, whereas this is 18 characters. Since our suffix is "-emu" we are adding 4 to the original 14, so we could/should pick a 2 character suffix to distinguish PV from emulated interfaces. "-e" perhaps? It looks like the suffix is in both tools/hotplug/Linux/vif-common.sh and tools/libxl/libxl_internal.h:TAP_DEVICE_SUFFIX. We could perhaps arrange somehow that only the hotplug scripts needed to know this, allowing this to be a more localised decision but it would no doubt involve a bunch of faff. I'm inclined to suggest we just change the suffix globally. Ian. _______________________________________________ Xen-devel mailing list Xen-devel@lists.xen.org http://lists.xen.org/xen-devel
