NETIF_DORMANT_ON(9)	    Network device support	   NETIF_DORMANT_ON(9)

NAME
       netif_dormant_on - mark device as dormant.

SYNOPSIS
       void netif_dormant_on(struct net_device * dev);

ARGUMENTS
       dev
	   network device

DESCRIPTION
       Mark device as dormant (as per RFC2863).

       The dormant state indicates that the relevant interface is not actually
       in a condition to pass packets (i.e., it is not ´up´) but is in a
       “pending” state, waiting for some external event. For “on- demand”
       interfaces, this new state identifies the situation where the interface
       is waiting for events to place it in the up state.
