4a0d6638b3 - Store pointer to the link-level address right in "struct ifnet"
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.

d09ed26fd8 - 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.

fc74a9f93a 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.

b8b3323469 Add a new driver to support IP over firewire. This driver is intended to
conform to the rfc2734 and rfc3146 standard for IP over firewire and
should eventually supercede the fwe driver. Right now the broadcast
channel number is hardwired and we don't support MCAP for multicast
channel allocation - more infrastructure is required in the firewire
code itself to fix these problems.

212b6d5244 + rename and document an unused field in struct arpcom (field is still
there so there are no ABI changes);
+ replace 5 redefinitions of the IPF2AC macro with one in if_arp.h

Eventually (but before freezing the ABI) we need to get rid of
struct arpcom (initially with the help of some smart #defines
to avoid having to touch each and every driver, see below).

Apart from the struct ifnet, struct arpcom now only stores a copy
of the MAC address (ac_enaddr, but we already have another copy in
the struct ifnet -- if_addrhead), and a netgraph-specific field
which is _always_ accessed through the ifp, so it might well go
into the struct ifnet too (where, besides, there is already an entry
for AF_NETGRAPH data...)

Too bad ac_enaddr is widely referenced by all drivers. But
this can be fixed as follows:

#define ac_enaddr       ac_if.the_original_ac_enaddr_in_struct_ifnet

(note that the right hand side would likely be a pointer rather than
the base address of an array.)

868d8b6286 - Use if_broadcastaddr from struct ifnet rather than relying on
extern 'etherbroadcastaddr'.
- Make 'etherbroadcastaddr' static.

e1e1452d61 Make the ng_ether(4) node type dynamically loadable like the rest.
This means 'options NETGRAPH' is no longer necessary in order to get
netgraph-enabled Ethernet interfaces. This supports loading/unloading
the ng_ether.ko and attaching/detaching the Ethernet interface in any
order.

Add two new hooks 'upper' and 'lower' to allow access to the protocol
demux engine and the raw device, respectively. This enables bridging
to be defined as a netgraph node, if so desired.

664a31e496 Change #ifdef KERNEL to #ifdef _KERNEL in the public headers. "KERNEL"
is an application space macro and the applications are supposed to be free
to use it as they please (but cannot).  This is consistant with the other
BSD's who made this change quite some time ago.  More commits to come.

This  is for various Olicom cards. An IBM driver is following.
This patch also adds support to tcpdump to decode packets on tokenring.
Congratulations to the proud father.. (below)

7fa939e201 Fixed change prerequisites for <net/if_arp.h>:
- don't declare `struct arpcom' except in the kernel, so that there is no
  dependency on <net/if.h> except in the kernel.  This may break something
  else.
- spell ETHER_ADDR_LEN as 6 again, so that there is no dependency on
  <net/ethernet.h> even in the kernel.

1d5e9e2255 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>.
