Hello,

I see I may not send the message here, but I have been confused for a long time.  As I am developing the ethernet frontend driver for a nonLinux OS, it is really opaque to me that how register_frontend_driver()
work? And what kind of  tasks must be done for the frontend driver in the registration stage? Does it create new node and write some entries to Xenstore in this stage?

Any suggestion would be greatly appreaciated!!

Thanks,
-zheng
