m_pkthdr.ether_vlan. The presence of the M_VLANTAG flag on the mbuf
signifies the presence and validity of its content.
Drivers that support hardware VLAN tag stripping fill in the received
VLAN tag (containing both vlan and priority information) into the
ether_vtag mbuf packet header field:
m->m_pkthdr.ether_vtag = vlan_id; /* ntohs()? */
m->m_flags |= M_VLANTAG;
to mark the packet m with the specified VLAN tag.
On output the driver should check the mbuf for the M_VLANTAG flag to
see if a VLAN tag is present and valid:
if (m->m_flags & M_VLANTAG) {
... = m->m_pkthdr.ether_vtag; /* htons()? */
... pass tag to hardware ...
}
VLAN tags are stored in host byte order. Byte swapping may be necessary.
(Note: This driver conversion was mechanic and did not add or remove any
byte swapping in the drivers.)
Remove zone_mtag_vlan UMA zone and MTAG_VLAN definition. No more tag
memory allocation have to be done.

switches that fail to pad a frame after untagging it if its length drops
below the minimum. This option is blessed by IEEE Std 802.1Q (2003 Ed.),

Longer term we may want to kill off if_name() entierly since all modern

interface, do not just assign -1 to tag because it breaks the logic of
the code to follow. The better way is to handle this case as an unsupported
protocol and return unless INVARIANTS is in effect and we can panic.
Panic is good there because the scenario can happen only because of a
coding error elsewhere.
We also should show the interface name in the panic message for easier
debugging of the problem, should it ever emerge.

as it tried to solve:
- it smuggled hidden 802.1q details into otherwise protocol-neutral code;
- it put an important code consistency check under DEBUG, which was never
defined by anyone but a developer hacking this file for the moment;
- lastly, the former bcopy() call had been correct as long as the "dead"
code was there.
(A new version of the fix for tag of -1 to come in the next commit.)
Agreed by: qingli
vlan tag processing, the code will use bcopy() to remove the vlan
tag field but the code copies 2 bytes too many, which essentially
overwrites the protocol type field.
Also, a tag value of -1 is generated for unrecognized interface type,
which would cause an invalid memory access in the vlans[] array.
In addition, removed a line of dead code and its associated comments.

take a timeval indicating when the packet was captured. Move
microtime() to the calling functions and grab the timestamp as soon
as we know that we're going to call catchpacket at least once.
This means that we call microtime() once per matched packet, as
opposed to once per matched packet per bpf listener. It also means
that we return the same timestamp to all bpf listeners, rather than
slightly different ones.
It would be more accurate to call microtime() even earlier for all
packets, as you have to grab (1+#listener) locks before you can
determine if the packet will be logged. You could always grab a
timestamp before the locks, but microtime() can be costly, so this
didn't seem like a good idea.
(I guess most ethernet interfaces will have a bpf listener these
days because of dhclient. That means that we could be doing two bpf
locks on most packets going through the interface.)

function, pru_close, to notify protocols that the file descriptor or
other consumer of a socket is closing the socket. pru_abort is now a
notification of close also, and no longer detaches. pru_detach is no
longer used to notify of close, and will be called during socket
tear-down by sofree() when all references to a socket evaporate after
an earlier call to abort or close the socket. This means detach is now
an unconditional teardown of a socket, whereas previously sockets could
persist after detach of the protocol retained a reference.
This faciliates sharing mutexes between layers of the network stack as
the mutex is required during the checking and removal of references at
the head of sofree(). With this change, pru_detach can now assume that
the mutex will no longer be required by the socket layer after
completion, whereas before this was not necessarily true.

Drop the locks all together on detach, as they will be picked up by

except in places dealing with ifaddr creation or destruction; and
in such special places incomplete ifaddrs should never be linked
to system-wide data structures. Therefore we can eliminate all the
superfluous checks for "ifa->ifa_addr != NULL" and get ready
to the system crashing honestly instead of masking possible bugs.
