Most\nprominent are WiFi and WiMAX based devices. However for userspace\napplication it is important to classify these devices correctly and\nnot only see them as Ethernet devices. The daemons like HAL, DeviceKit\nor even NetworkManager with udev support tries to do the classification\nin userspace with a lot trickery and extra system calls. This is not\ngood and actually reaches its limitations. Especially since the kernel\ndoes know the type of the Ethernet device it is pretty stupid.\n\nTo solve this problem the underlying device type needs to be set and\nthen the value will be exported as DEVTYPE via uevents and available\nwithin udev.\n\n # cat /sys/class/net/wlan0/uevent\n DEVTYPE\u003dwlan\n INTERFACE\u003dwlan0\n IFINDEX\u003d5\n\nThis is similar to subsystems like USB and SCSI that distinguish\nbetween hosts, devices, disks, partitions etc.\n\nThe new SET_NETDEV_DEVTYPE() is a convenience helper to set the actual\ndevice type. All device types are free form, but for convenience the\nsame strings as used with RFKILL are choosen.\n\nSigned-off-by: Marcel Holtmann \u003cmarcel@holtmann.org\u003e\nSigned-off-by: David S.
