Hi

After loading pci driver for proprietary ethernet card, i dont see the  few module detail in in /sys/module/<module-name>/drivers/pci:<module-name>/net  .

Can someone tell what APIs should be used to get the ethernet  interface name , mac address details .

Thanks

You probably want to grep/google for rtnetlink. I am pretty sure the iproute2 ip command uses it to generate output like this:

$ ip link show dev lo
1: lo: <LOOPBACK,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 65536 qdisc noqueue state UNKNOWN
    link/loopback 00:00:00:00:00:00 brd 00:00:00:00:00:00
