Hello, How should we use dev_get_by_name ? What should be the 1st parameter should it be a pointer ? (without allocation required) ? struct net_device *dev_get_by_name(struct net *net, const char *name); I get an exception when using it for unallocated pointer in 1st argument, but succeeded with the following: ndev = dev_get_by_name(&init_net, "eth0"); Is it alloweed to use init_net ?
