e3c1388bba PR: kern/10570
Submitted by:	adrian@freebsd.org

Change reference count in struct ifaddr to a u_int, to be able
to handle more than 2^16 routes to the same interface.

Fix suggested by Andrew Bangs <andrewb@demon.net> in PR kern/10570.
Tested by <adrian@freebsd.org> and me under -current.

if/else nesting.

6182fdbda8 Bring the 'new-bus' to the i386. This extensively changes the way the
i386 platform boots, it is no longer ISA-centric, and is fully dynamic.
Most old drivers compile and run without modification via 'compatability
shims' to enable a smoother transition.  eisa, isapnp and pccard* are
not yet using the new resource manager.  Once fully converted, all drivers
will be loadable, including PCI and ISA.

(Some other changes appear to have snuck in, including a port of Soren's
 ATA driver to the Alpha.  Soren, back this out if you need to.)

This is a checkpoint of work-in-progress, but is quite functional.

The bulk of the work was done over the last few years by Doug Rabson and
Garrett Wollman.

e8c2601dbf Generalize the if_up() and if_down() functions under the names
if_route() and if_unroute().

This is first step towards sanitizing IFF_UP and IFF_RUNNING

ed7509ace4 Go through the loopback code with a broom..
Remove lots'o'hacks.
looutput is now static.

Other callers who want to use loopback to allow shortcutting
should call the special entrypoint for this, if_simloop(), which is
specifically designed for this purpose. Using looutput for this purpose
was problematic, particularly with bpf and trying to keep track
of whether one should be using the charateristics of the loopback interface
or the interface (e.g. if_ethersubr.c) that was requesting the loopback.
There was a whole class of errors due to this mis-use each of which had
hacks to cover them up.

Consists largly of hack removal :-)

ecbb00a262 This commit fixes various 64bit portability problems required for
FreeBSD/alpha.  The most significant item is to change the command
argument to ioctl functions from int to u_long.  This change brings us
inline with various other BSD versions.  Driver writers may like to
use (__FreeBSD_version == 300003) to detect this change.

The prototype FreeBSD/alpha machdep will follow in a couple of days
time.

7ed8f465e7 Add a per-interface-address pointer to a function that can be supplied
by a protocol, to detirmine if an address matches the net this address
is part of.  This is needed by protocols for which netmasks
"just don't work", for example appletalk.

Also add the code in appletalk to make use of this new feature.
Thsi fixes one of the longest standing bugs in appletalk.
The inability to talk to machines to which the path is via a router
which is on a different net, but the same netrange, as your interface.
Protocols that do not supply this function (e.g. IP) should not be affected.

6875d25465 Back out part 1 of the MCFH that changed $Id$ to $FreeBSD$. We are not
ready for it yet.

1130b656e5 Make the long-awaited change from $Id$ to $FreeBSD$
This will make a number of things easier in the future, as well as (finally!)
avoiding the Id-smashing problem which has plagued developers for so long.

Boy, I'm glad we're not using sup anymore.  This update would have been
insane otherwise.

373f88ed5c Fix a few oversights in the new multicast membership interface. 1997-01-08 13:20:25 +00:00

1158dfb736 Checkpoint the beginnings of the new kernel interface for
multicast group memberships.  This is not actually operative
at the moment (a lot of other code still needs to be changed), but
this seemed like a useful reference point to check in so that
others (i.e. Bill Fenner) have fair warning of where we are going.

19ff91c6b0 Separate kernel-internal data structures from exposed user interface
to interfaces.  (Amazing nobody had done this!)

More commits to fix up user-land to follow.
