+ * This structure defines the management hooks for network devices.
+ * The following hooks can bed defined and are optonal (can be null)
+ * unless otherwise noted.
+ *
+ * int (*ndo_init)(struct net_device *dev);
+ * This function is called once when network device is registered.
+ * The network device can use this to any late stage initializaton
+ * or semantic validattion. It can fail with an error code which will
+ * be propogated back to register_netdev
+ *
+ * void (*ndo_uninit)(struct net_device *dev);
+ * This function is called when device is unregistered or when registration
+ * fails. It is not called if init fails.
+ *
+ * int (*ndo_open)(struct net_device *dev);
+ * This function is called when network device transistions to the up
+ * state.
+ *
+ * int (*ndo_stop)(struct net_device *dev);
+ * This function is called when network device transistions to the down
+ * state.
+ *
+ * void (*ndo_change_rx_flags)(struct net_device *dev, int flags);
+ * This function is called to allow device receiver to make
+ * changes to configuration when multicast or promiscious is enabled.
+ *
+ * void (*ndo_set_rx_mode)(struct net_device *dev);
+ * This function is called device changes address list filtering.
+ *
+ * void (*ndo_set_multicast_list)(struct net_device *dev);
+ * This function is called when the multicast address list changes.
+ *
+ * int (*ndo_set_mac_address)(struct net_device *dev, void *addr);
+ * This function is called when the Media Access Control address
+ * needs to be changed. If not this interface is not defined, the
+ * mac address can not be changed.
+ *
+ * int (*ndo_validate_addr)(struct net_device *dev);
+ * Test if Media Access Control address is valid for the device.
+ *
+ * int (*ndo_do_ioctl)(struct net_device *dev, struct ifreq *ifr, int cmd);
+ * Called when a user request an ioctl which can't be handled by
+ * the generic interface code. If not defined ioctl's return
+ * not supported error code.
+ *
+ * int (*ndo_set_config)(struct net_device *dev, struct ifmap *map);
+ * Used to set network devices bus interface parameters. This interface
+ * is retained for legacy reason, new devices should use the bus
+ * interface (PCI) for low level management.
+ *
+ * int (*ndo_change_mtu)(struct net_device *dev, int new_mtu);
+ * Called when a user wants to change the Maximum Transfer Unit
+ * of a device. If not defined, any request to change MTU will
+ * will return an error.
+ *
+ * void (*ndo_tx_timeout) (struct net_device *dev);
+ * Callback uses when the transmitter has not made any progress
+ * for dev->watchdog ticks.
+ *
+ * struct net_device_stats* (*get_stats)(struct net_device *dev);
+ * Called when a user wants to get the network device usage
+ * statistics. If not defined, the counters in dev->stats will
+ * be used.
+ *
+ * void (*ndo_vlan_rx_register)(struct net_device *dev, struct vlan_group *grp);
+ * If device support VLAN receive accleration
+ * (ie. dev->features & NETIF_F_HW_VLAN_RX), then this function is called
+ * when vlan groups for the device changes. Note: grp is NULL
+ * if no vlan's groups are being used.
+ *
+ * void (*ndo_vlan_rx_add_vid)(struct net_device *dev, unsigned short vid);
+ * If device support VLAN filtering (dev->features & NETIF_F_HW_VLAN_FILTER)
+ * this function is called when a VLAN id is registered.
+ *
+ * void (*ndo_vlan_rx_kill_vid)(struct net_device *dev, unsigned short vid);
+ * If device support VLAN filtering (dev->features & NETIF_F_HW_VLAN_FILTER)
