From 4d019b3f80dc147fd9d177e7e0337fc66e3c0032 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Chris Novakovic Date: Tue, 24 Apr 2018 03:56:38 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] ipconfig: Create /proc/net/ipconfig directory To allow ipconfig to report IP configuration details to user space processes without cluttering /proc/net, create a new subdirectory /proc/net/ipconfig. All files containing IP configuration details should be written to this directory. Signed-off-by: Chris Novakovic Signed-off-by: David S.
