1/* dummy.c: a dummy net driver 2 3 The purpose of this driver is to provide a device to point a 4 route through, but not to actually transmit packets. 5 6 Why? If you have a machine whose only connection is an occasional 7 PPP/SLIP/PLIP link, you can only connect to your own hostname 8 when the link is up. Otherwise you have to use localhost. 9 This isn't very consistent. 10 11 One solution is to set up a dummy link using PPP/SLIP/PLIP, 12 but this seems (to me) too much overhead for too little gain. 13 This driver provides a small alternative. Thus you can do 14 15 [when not running slip] 16 ifconfig dummy slip.addr.ess.here up 17 [to go to slip] 18 ifconfig dummy down 19 dip whatever 20 21 This was written by looking at Donald Becker's skeleton driver 22 and the loopback driver. I then threw away anything that didn't 23 apply! Thanks to Alan Cox for the key clue on what to do with 24 misguided packets. 25 26 Nick Holloway, 27th May 1994 27 [I tweaked this explanation a little but that's all] 28 Alan Cox, 30th May 1994 29*/ 30 31#include <linux/module.h> 32#include <linux/kernel.h> 33#include <linux/netdevice.h> 34#include <linux/etherdevice.h> 35#include <linux/init.h> 36#include <linux/moduleparam.h> 37#include <linux/rtnetlink.h> 38#include <net/rtnetlink.h> 39#include <linux/u64_stats_sync.h> 40 41#define DRV_NAME "dummy" 42#define DRV_VERSION "1.0" 43 44static int numdummies = 1;
