What did you do?
Hello. I want to be able to detect if network interface is physical or virtual.
In Linux, there is a special LOWER_UP
flag that indicates that NIC is physical, not virtual.
Currently, net
package exposes only a few flags, but not LOWER_UP
flag:
const (
FlagUp Flags = 1 << iota // interface is up
FlagBroadcast // interface supports broadcast access capability
FlagLoopback // interface is a loopback interface
FlagPointToPoint // interface belongs to a point-to-point link
FlagMulticast // interface supports multicast access capability
)
LOWER_UP
is described as IFF_LOWER_UP
at include/uapi/linux/if.h
What did you expect to see?
Can you add please LowerUp
flag to net
package?
