I saw your patch "net: Add DEVTYPE support for Ethernet based
devices"[1] for the 2.6.32 linux kernel. Do I guess correctly you
submitted that one for getting connman ready to identify devices
right? There is at least some code in udev.c which parses this
DEVTYPE attribute but the systype test is before the DEVTYPE test.
The hso.c driver sets the dev->type to APHRD_NONE (0xfffe) and not to
APHDR_ETHER as expected by add_net_device. I'm not where to fix this
problem. Should hso.c use APHRD_ETHER as connman expects this or
should add_net_device accept others types?
thanks,
daniel
