Hello,

Apologies in case, this is not the right list of this question.

I wanted to check, How can i find out if a network status has changed

1. How can the user application find out if the link status has changed?
2. what changes do i need to add in the driver to indicate to the user
applications that ethernet cable has been plugged in or unplugged.

3. How should a user application know the status change (Should the
userapp poll on the interface/is there an uevent interface to indicate
the link status change)

Thanks.
Sriram
