Re: Making Two ethernet interfaces up in Linux

From: Antonio Di Bacco <hidden>

         We are trying to port Linux on Xilinx Board XUPV2Pro which is
similar in most aspects to the Xilinx ML300 board. Linux is up and
running for the original board i.e. having only one ethrnet interface.
Now since we wanted to have the board working as router, we designed a
daughter board with two ethernet phy interfaces. The MACs required for
that are instantiated in Xilinx ....
You have already the driver for the first MAC, then you should start from that 
modifying the init procedure for example and all the others. Your driver 
should initialize both the MACs and also create two devices calling 
init_etherdev tow times. If you post your driver I can suggest what to 
change. It is not so difficult. 

Bye,
Antonio.
