From f5bb1c558405aaac41b08b2ea71137db9db46e72 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: =?UTF-8?q?R=C3=A9mi=20Denis-Courmont?= Date: Wed, 9 Sep 2009 00:00:05 +0000 Subject: Phonet: back-end for autoconfigured addresses MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit In some cases, the network device driver knows what layer-3 address the device should have. This adds support for the Phonet stack to automatically request from the driver and add that address to the network device. Signed-off-by: Rémi Denis-Courmont Signed-off-by: David S.
