Hi Andy,
After trace the log of HAL we found
nt_dev=0x00000000
04:19:14.933 [I] hotplug.c:138: /sys/devices/virtual/misc/apm_bios is a
device (subsystem)
04:19:14.933 [I] device.c:4306: add_dev: subsys=misc
sysfs_path=/sys/devices/virtual/misc/apm_bios dev=/dev/apm_bios
parent_dev=0x00000000
04:19:14.934 [I] hotplug.c:138: /sys/devices/virtual/net/eth0 is a
device (subsystem)
04:19:14.935 [I] device.c:4306: add_dev: subsys=net
sysfs_path=/sys/devices/virtual/net/eth0 dev= parent_dev=0x00000000
the parent_dev is NULL and so that HAL will not detect it.
compares to usb0
04:19:14.575 [I] hotplug.c:138:
/sys/devices/platform/s3c2440-usbgadget/gadget/net/usb0 is a device
(subsystem)
04:19:14.576 [I] osspec.c:966: hal_util_find_known_parent:
'/sys/devices/platform/s3c2440-usbgadget/gadget/net/usb0'->'/sys/devices/platform/s3c2440-usbgadget'
04:19:14.577 [I] device.c:4306: add_dev: subsys=net
sysfs_path=/sys/devices/platform/s3c2440-usbgadget/gadget/net/usb0 dev=
parent_dev=0x00081bb0
Thanks OLV's support :)
I don't know who is taking care of this part, Andy would you help?
Thanks,
