RedBoot_init macro, defines 'struct init_tab_entry' variable in
'ecos.table' section. Pls correct me here...my understanding is that
RedBoot_init(net_init, RedBoot_INIT_LAST) expands into
"struct init_tab_entry _init_tab_9999net_init", where this struct
has 1 member, which is a function ptr.
I am going thru the redboot/src/net files, but i am unable to find
any place, from where _init_tab_9999net_init->net_init is called.
i.e, who calls net_init and from where?
Thanks and Regards
