## Netlinker
TinyGo's network device driver model comprises two Go interfaces: Netdever and
Netlinker. This README covers Netlinker.
The Netlinker interface describes an L2 network interface. A netlink is a
concrete implementation of a Netlinker. See [Netdev](../netdev/) for
the L4/L3 network interface.
A netlink can:
- Connect/disconnect device to/from network
- Notify of network events (e.g. link UP/DOWN)
- Send and receive Ethernet packets
- Get/set device's hardware address (MAC address)
