结构体net_device在2.6.31中函数接口的改动
struct net_device在2.6.31中删减了很多，其函数接口用一个
struct net_device_ops封装成一个独立的结构体，其结构如下：
struct net_device_ops {
int (*ndo_init)(struct net_device *dev);
void (*ndo_uninit)(struct net_device *dev);
int (*ndo_open)(struct net_device *dev);
int (*ndo_stop)(struct net_device *dev);
int (*ndo_start_xmit) (struct sk_buff *skb,
struct net_device *dev);
u16 (*ndo_select_queue)(struct net_device *dev,
struct sk_buff *skb);
#define HAVE_CHANGE_RX_FLAGS
void (*ndo_change_rx_flags)(struct net_device *dev,
int flags);
#define HAVE_SET_RX_MODE
void (*ndo_set_rx_mode)(struct net_device *dev);
#define HAVE_MULTICAST
void (*ndo_set_multicast_list)(struct net_device *dev);
#define HAVE_SET_MAC_ADDR
int (*ndo_set_mac_address)(struct net_device *dev,
void *addr);
#define HAVE_VALIDATE_ADDR
int (*ndo_validate_addr)(struct net_device *dev);
#define HAVE_PRIVATE_IOCTL
int (*ndo_do_ioctl)(struct net_device *dev,
struct ifreq *ifr, int cmd);
#define HAVE_SET_CONFIG
int (*ndo_set_config)(struct net_device *dev,
struct ifmap *map);
#define HAVE_CHANGE_MTU
int (*ndo_change_mtu)(struct net_device *dev,
int new_mtu);
int (*ndo_neigh_setup)(struct net_device *dev,
struct neigh_parms *);
#define HAVE_TX_TIMEOUT
void (*ndo_tx_timeout) (struct net_device *dev);
struct net_device_stats* (*ndo_get_stats)(struct net_device *dev);
void (*ndo_vlan_rx_register)(struct net_device *dev,
struct vlan_group *grp);
void (*ndo_vlan_rx_add_vid)(struct net_device *dev,
unsigned short vid);
void (*ndo_vlan_rx_kill_vid)(struct net_device *dev,
unsigned short vid);
#ifdef CONFIG_NET_POLL_CONTROLLER
#define HAVE_NETDEV_POLL
void (*ndo_poll_controller)(struct net_device *dev);
#endif
#if defined(CONFIG_FCOE) || defined(CONFIG_FCOE_MODULE)
int (*ndo_fcoe_ddp_setup)(struct net_device *dev,
u16 xid,
struct scatterlist *sgl,
unsigned int sgc);
int (*ndo_fcoe_ddp_done)(struct net_device *dev,
u16 xid);
#endif
};
不难发现，很多原来的结构前面都在原来的基础上增加一个前缀ndo_，其原来的struct net_device结构体变为：
