Subject: Only allow hardware families we know we can work with by default.
X-Git-Tag: v5.0.8~10
X-Git-Url: http://git.ipfire.org/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=a74873aebad463c70fbff15bb4ee6287a109fa47;p=thirdparty%2Fdhcpcd.git

Only allow hardware families we know we can work with by default.
If an interface with a different hardware family is requested by the user then
emit a warning.
