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 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)
