In rS360398, a new iflib device method was added to opt out of VLAN
events needing an interface reset.
I am switching the default to not requiring a restart for:
* VLAN events
* unknown events
After fixing various bugs, I do not think this would be a common need
of hardware and it is undesirable from the user's perspective causing
link flaps and much slower VLAN configuration. Currently, there are no
other restart events besides VLAN events, and setting the
ifdi_needs_restart default to false will alleviate the need to churn
every driver if an odd event is added in the future for specific
hardware.
markj points out this could cause churn in the other direction; I will
solve that problem with an event registration system as he mentions in
the review should we need it in the future.
These drivers will opt into restart and need further inspection or work:

FreeBSD Kernel Source:
This directory contains the source files and build glue that make up the FreeBSD kernel and its modules, including both original and contributed software.
Kernel configuration files are located in the conf/
subdirectory of each
architecture. GENERIC
is the configuration used in release builds. NOTES
contains documentation of all possible entries. LINT
is a compile-only
configuration used to maximize build coverage and detect regressions.
Documentation:
Source code documentation is maintained in a set of man pages, under section 9.
These pages are located in share/man/man9
, from the
top-level of the src tree. Consult intro(9)
for an overview of existing pages.
Some additional high-level documentation of the kernel is maintained in the Architecture Handbook.
