From 9f4d26d0f3016cf8813977d624751b94465fa317 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Mark McLoughlin Date: Mon, 19 Jan 2009 17:09:49 -0800 Subject: virtio_net: add link status handling Allow the host to inform us that the link is down by adding a VIRTIO_NET_F_STATUS which indicates that device status is available in virtio_net config. This is currently useful for simulating link down conditions (e.g. using proposed qemu 'set_link' monitor command) but would also be needed if we were to support device assignment via virtio.
