This is a pretty useless message, in that it will mean nothing to a
user who sees it.  It would be better to set ret = -ENOMEM and not
print the message, I think.

Generic PPP over HDLC in the 2.6 kernel?

Can anyone please update me on the state of generic ppp over wan hdlc
in the 2.6 kernel?

I'm wanting to do this for a ppc 2.6.14 kernel, and am only just
coming up to speed on the issues of pppd not working hdlc, and the wan
hdlc stuff only being sync ppp oriented.

Trawling the mailing list I came up with Dan Eble's 2.4.21 patches of
2003, but I don't know enough about the subtleties of 2.4 vs 2.6
kernels to know what success I might have had crafting his work into a
2.6 kernel.  One set of patches he supplied was for a HDLC plugin to
pppd 2.4.1/2 - I should be fine with these, it's just the kernel stuff
that I'm unsure of.

Cheers,
Ron Kellam

[RFC PPP]: carrier/operstate support

[PPP]: carrier/operstate support

Add support for setting carrier state and operstate of ppp devices.
The patch works as follows:

- Initially, ppp devices come up with carrier off and npmode set to NPMODE_DROP

- In non-demand mode (dialin or permanent connection), when the IP*CP
  protocols transition to UP state, the ppp daemon will change the npmode
  to NPMODE_PASS, at which point the carrier state is set to "on".
  On hangup the ppp daemon will change it back to NPMODE_DROP and the
  carrier state is changed back to "off".

- In demand mode, the PPP daemon will set npmode to NPMODE_PASS immediately
  (moving the interface to "carrier up" state) and set the SC_LOOP_TRAFFIC
  flag until demand is signalled. While SC_LOOP_TRAFFIC is set, the interface
  is put in dormant state. As soon as demand is signaled this flag will get
  cleared and npmode set to NPMODE_QUEUE (which is unsupported by the kernel),
  so the carrier state is changed to "off" until the IP*CB protocols
  transition to UP.

So simply put: a non-demand interface in in "carrier off" state until its
able to pass traffic, demand interfaces are in "carrier on, dormant" state
while waiting for demand, "carrier off" state while connecting and "carrier on"
state when able to pass traffic.
