The following change would primarily interest people using linux on
embedded boards, but should be usable by any system.
This patch creates one new entry in the proc filesystem.
"/proc/net/bootpc" is now created and contains information if the
kernel received a bootp packet during bootup. The output format is
identical to the "bootpc" userspace program. On an embedded system,
this can save 10-15 seconds from boot time (if running 'bootpc' as one
of your init scripts). Also, this removes a possible point of failure
during bootup.
We think this patch would be useful to put in the 2.4.x stream.
But there's no reason it can't also go in 2.5.x as well. We also have
a 2.2.x version availble if there's any interest in that as well.
So what do people think? Should this go in 2.4 or 2.5?
Is this worthwhile to pursue putting this in (it's very useful to us,
so we figured others could use it)?
Should i send this to Linus for 2.5 inclusion as well?
Here's some sample output from the code:
bash-2.04$ cat /proc/net/bootpc
SERVER='10.40.4.101'
IPADDR='10.40.14.83'
BOOTFILE='/tftpboot/core_24work'
NETMASK='255.255.255.0'
GATEWAYS_1='10.40.14.1'
GATEWAYS='10.40.14.1'
YPDOMAIN='locoland'
HOSTNAME='somecard'
T129='configfile_1a'
NTPSRVS_1='10.40.4.101'
NTPSRVS='10.40.4.101'
Patch is below. Thanks.
