semantics.
- Stop testing bpf pointers for NULL.  In some cases use
  bpf_peers_present() and then call the function directly inside the
  conditional block instead of the macro.
- For places where the entire conditional block is the macro, remove the
  test and make the macro unconditional.
- Use BPF_MTAP() in if_pfsync on FreeBSD instead of an expanded version of
  the old semantics.

Since DELAY() was moved, most #includes have been

unnecessary.

- Store pointer to the link-level address right in "struct ifnet"

2005-11-11T16:04:59+00:00

  rather than in ifindex_table[]; all (except one) accesses are
  through ifp anyway.  IF_LLADDR() works faster, and all (except
  one) ifaddr_byindex() users were converted to use ifp->if_addr.

- Stop storing a (pointer to) Ethernet address in "struct arpcom",
  and drop the IFP2ENADDR() macro; all users have been converted
  to use IF_LLADDR() instead.

Make sure that we call if_free(ifp) after bus_teardown_intr. Since we

2005-09-19T03:10:21+00:00

could get an interrupt after we free the ifp, and the interrupt
handler depended on the ifp being still alive, this could, in theory,
cause a crash.  Eliminate this possibility by moving the if_free to
after the bus_teardown_intr() call.

Propagate rename of IFF_OACTIVE and IFF_RUNNING to IFF_DRV_OACTIVE and

2005-08-09T10:20:02+00:00

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.

Stop embedding struct ifnet at the top of driver softcs. Instead the

2005-06-10T16:49:24+00:00

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.
