# 207554 03-May-2010 sobomax

Add new tunable 'net.link.ifqmaxlen' to set default send interface
queue length. The default value for this parameter is 50, which is
quite low for many of today's uses and the only way to modify this
parameter right now is to edit if_var.h file. Also add read-only
sysctl with the same name, so that it's possible to retrieve the
current value.

# 199542 19-Nov-2009 jhb

Several fixes to these drivers. Note that these two drivers are actually
just two different attachments (EISA and PCI) to a single driver.
- Add real locking. Previously these drivers only acquired their lock
in their interrupt handler or in the ioctl routine (but too broadly in
the latter). No locking was used for the stack calling down into the
driver via if_init() or if_start(), for device shutdown or detach. Also,
the interrupt handler held the driver lock while calling if_input(). All
this stuff should be fixed in the locking changes.
- Really fix these drivers to handle if_alloc(). The front-end attachments
were using if_initname() before the ifnet was allocated. Fix this by
moving some of the duplicated logic from each driver into pdq_ifattach().
While here, make pdq_ifattach() return an error so that the driver just
fails to attach if if_alloc() fails rather than panic'ing. Also, defer
freeing the ifnet until the driver has stopped using it during detach.
- Add a new private timer to drive the watchdog timer.
- Pass the softc pointer to the interrupt handlers instead of the device_t
so we can avoid the use of device_get_softc() and to better match what
other drivers do.


# 195049 26-Jun-2009 rwatson

Use if_maddr_rlock()/if_maddr_runlock() rather than IF_ADDR_LOCK()/
IF_ADDR_UNLOCK() across network device drivers when accessing the
per-interface multicast address list, if_multiaddrs. This will
allow us to change the locking strategy without affecting our driver
programming interface or binary interface.

For two wireless drivers, remove unnecessary locking, since they
don't actually access the multicast address list.

Fix preprocessor code to check for a symbol being defined prior to checking

# 152296 11-Nov-2005 ru

- Make IFP2ENADDR() a pointer to IF_LLADDR() rather than another
copy of Ethernet address.

- Change iso88025_ifattach() and fddi_ifattach() to accept MAC
address as an argument, similar to ether_ifattach(), to make
this work.


# 148887 09-Aug-2005 rwatson

Propagate rename of IFF_OACTIVE and IFF_RUNNING to IFF_DRV_OACTIVE and
IFF_DRV_RUNNING, as well as the move from ifnet.if_flags to
ifnet.if_drv_flags. Device drivers are now responsible for
synchronizing access to these flags, as they are in if_drv_flags. This
helps prevent races between the network stack and device driver in
maintaining the interface flags field.

Many __FreeBSD__ and __FreeBSD_version checks maintained and continued;
some less so.

# 148654 02-Aug-2005 rwatson

# 147256 10-Jun-2005 brooks

Stop embedding struct ifnet at the top of driver softcs. Instead the
struct ifnet or the layer 2 common structure it was embedded in have
been replaced with a struct ifnet pointer to be filled by a call to the
new function, if_alloc(). The layer 2 common structure is also allocated
via if_alloc() based on the interface type. It is hung off the new
struct ifnet member, if_l2com.

This change removes the size of these structures from the kernel ABI and
will allow us to better manage them as interfaces come and go.

Other changes of note:
- Struct arpcom is no longer referenced in normal interface code.
Instead the Ethernet address is accessed via the IFP2ENADDR() macro.
To enforce this ac_enaddr has been renamed to _ac_enaddr.
- The second argument to ether_ifattach is now always the mac address
from driver private storage rather than sometimes being ac_enaddr.

# 106937 14-Nov-2002 sam

network interface driver changes:

o don't strip the Ethernet header from inbound packets; pass packets
up the stack intact (required significant changes to some drivers)
o reference common definitions in net/ethernet.h (e.g. ETHER_ALIGN)
o track ether_ifattach/ether_ifdetach API changes
o track bpf changes (use BPF_TAP and BPF_MTAP)
o track vlan changes (ifnet capabilities, revised processing scheme, etc.)
o use if_input to pass packets "up"
o call ether_ioctl for default handling of ioctls

Change callers of mtx_init() to pass in an appropriate lock type name. In
most cases NULL is passed, but in some cases such as network driver locks
(which use the MTX_NETWORK_LOCK macro) and UMA zone locks, a name is used.

# 69152 25-Nov-2000 jlemon

Lock down the network interface queues. The queue mutex must be obtained
before adding/removing packets from the queue. Also, the if_obytes and
if_omcasts fields should only be manipulated under protection of the mutex.

IF_ENQUEUE, IF_PREPEND, and IF_DEQUEUE perform all necessary locking on
the queue. An IF_LOCK macro is provided, as well as the old (mutex-less)
versions of the macros in the form _IF_ENQUEUE, _IF_QFULL, for code which
needs them, but their use is discouraged.

Two new macros are introduced: IF_DRAIN() to drain a queue, and IF_HANDOFF,
which takes care of locking/enqueue, and also statistics updating/start
if necessary.


# 60753 21-May-2000 hoek

Uh, ya, sure this almost compiled for __bsdi__. NOT!

Note that __bsdi__s_/_i_/_os_/__ has moved this file to dev/ic/ and
has completely removed the non-compiling function from pdq_ifsubr.c and
has completely removed this function and placed it into netinet/if_ether.c
(if, in fact, it wasn't there the whole time). I was tempted to simply
remove this __bsdi__only__ function.

The function is arp_ifinit().

# 51646 25-Sep-1999 phk

Remove NBPF conditionality of bpf calls in most of our network drivers.

This means that we will not have to have a bpf and a non-bpf version
of our driver modules.

This does not open any security hole, because the bpf core isn't loadable

The drivers left unchanged are the "cross platform" drivers where the respective
maintainers are urged to DTRT, whatever that may be.

Add a couple of missing FreeBSD tags.

Make INET a proper option.

This will not make any of object files that LINT create change; there
might be differences with INET disabled, but hardly anything compiled
before without INET anyway. Now the 'obvious' things will give a
proper error if compiled without inet - ipx_ip, ipfw, tcp_debug. The
only thing that _should_ work (but can't be made to compile reasonably
easily) is sppp :-(

This commit move struct arpcom from <netinet/if_ether.h> to
<net/if_arp.h>.

Catch up with the moving target: merge the change from rev 1.19 of the
now dead sys/pci/if_pdq.c which has been committed about by the same
time i made my tests with Matt's code.

LINT should compile now again.

Well, that's a clear case where ``CVS writer locks'' would certainly
(not) have helped. :-]


# 21830 17-Jan-1997 joerg

This mega-merge brings Matt Thomas' 960801 FDDI driver (almost) up
to -current.

Thanks goes to Ulrike Nitzsche <ulrike@ifw-dresden.de> for giving me
a chance to test this. Only the PCI driver is tested though.

One final patch will follow in a separate commit. This is so that
everything up to here can be dragged into 2.2, if we decide so.

Finally import the 960801 of Matt Thomas' DEC FDDI driver. I'm
