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.
* Some dummynet code incorrectly handled a malloc()-allocated pseudo-mbuf
header structure, called "pkt," and could consequently pollute the mbuf
free list if it was ever passed to m_freem(). The fix involved passing not
pkt, but essentially pkt->m_next (which is a real mbuf) to the mbuf
utility routines.
* Also, for dummynet, in bdg_forward(), made the code copy the ethernet header
back into the mbuf (prepended) because the dummynet code that follows expects
it to be there but it is, unfortunately for dummynet, passed to bdg_forward
as a seperate argument.

type of software interrupt. Roughly, what used to be a bit in spending
now maps to a swi thread. Each thread can have multiple handlers, just
like a hardware interrupt thread.
- Instead of using a bitmask of pending interrupts, we schedule the specific
software interrupt thread to run, so spending, NSWI, and the shandlers
array are no longer needed. We can now have an arbitrary number of
software interrupt threads. When you register a software interrupt
thread via sinthand_add(), you get back a struct intrhand that you pass
to sched_swi() when you wish to schedule your swi thread to run.
- Convert the name of 'struct intrec' to 'struct intrhand' as it is a bit
more intuitive. Also, prefix all the members of struct intrhand with
'ih_'.
- Make swi_net() a MI function since there is now no point in it being

following changes:
socket.h: define SIOCSIFLLADDR
if.c: add support for SIOCSIFLLADDR, which resets the values in
the arpcom struct and sockaddr_dl for the specified interface.
Note that if the interface is already up, we need to down/up

You can now force the MAC address on any ethernet interface to be

we don't actually reprogram the EEPROM or anything.) Actually, you
can reprogram the MAC address on other kinds of interfaces too; this
shouldn't be ethernet-specific (though at the moment it's limited to
6 bytes of address data).
Nobody ran up to me and said "this is the politically correct way to

I could have done it more elegantly. Consider yourselves lucky I didn't

possible for a panic to occur if BPF is in use on the interface at the
time of the call to if_detach. This happens because BPF maintains pointers
to the struct ifnet describing the interface, which is freed by if_detach.
To correct this problem, a new call, bpfdetach, is introduced. bpfdetach
locates BPF descriptor references to the interface, and NULLs them. Other
BPF code is modified so that discovery of a NULL interface results in
ENXIO (already implemented for some calls). Processes blocked on a BPF
call will also be woken up so that they can receive ENXIO.
Interface drivers that invoke bpfattach and if_detach must be modified to
also call bpfattach(ifp) before calling if_detach(ifp). This is relevant
for buses that support hot removal, such as pccard and usb. Patches to
all effected devices will not be committed, only to if_wi.c, due to
testing limitations. To reproduce the crash, load up tcpdump on you
favorite pccard ethernet card, and then eject the card. As some pccard
drivers do not invoke if_detach(ifp), this bug will not manifest itself
for those drivers.
