* net: on ifup -a only detect devices when necessarySascha Hauer2018-04-091-0/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | For network boot we once used to hardcode eth0, but in latest changes this was changed to work with different network devices and the 'ifup eth0' was replaced with 'ifup -a' which lead to the result that we now detect all devices in order to eventually also bring up USB network adapters. In most of the cases this is not desired. When a board has internal network support this is likely to be used. With this patch we only detect all devices when we do not have a network device already. For the unusual case in which a USB network adapter shall be used even when an internal network interface is present we introduce the global variable "global.net.ifup_force_detect" which can be used to force detection of devices.
