replace mii_phy_probe() altogether. Compared to the latter the advantages of mii_attach() are: - intended to be called multiple times in order to attach PHYs in multiple passes (f.e. in order to only use sub-ranges of the 0 to MII_NPHY - 1 range) - being able to pass along the capability mask from the NIC to the PHY drivers - being able to specify at which address (phyloc) to probe for a PHY (instead of always probing at all addresses from 0 to MII_NPHY - 1) - being able to specify which PHY instance (offloc) to attach - being able to pass along MIIF_* flags from the NIC to the PHY drivers (f.e. as required to indicated to the PHY drivers that flow control is supported by the NIC driver, which actually is the motivation for this change). While at it, I used the opportunity to get rid of some hacks in mii(4) like miibus_probe() generally doing work besides sheer probing and the "EVIL HACK" (which will vanish entirely along with mii_phy_probe()) by passing the struct ifnet pointer via an argument of mii_attach() as well as to fix some resource leaks in mii(4) in case something fails. Commits which will update the PHY drivers to honor the MII flags passed down from the NIC drivers and take advantage of mii_attach() to get rid of certain types of hacks in NIC and PHY drivers as well as a conversion of the remaining uses of mii_phy_probe() will follow shortly.

This is the top level of the FreeBSD source directory. This file was last revised on: $FreeBSD$ For copyright information, please see the file COPYRIGHT in this directory (additional copyright information also exists for some sources in this tree - please see the specific source directories for more information). The Makefile in this directory supports a number of targets for building components (or all) of the FreeBSD source tree, the most commonly used one being ``world'', which rebuilds and installs everything in the FreeBSD system from the source tree except the kernel, the kernel-modules and the contents of /etc. The ``world'' target should only be used in cases where the source tree has not changed from the currently running version. See: http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/makeworld.html for more information, including setting make(1) variables. The ``buildkernel'' and ``installkernel'' targets build and install the kernel and the modules (see below). Please see the top of the Makefile in this directory for more information on the standard build targets and compile-time flags. Building a kernel is a somewhat more involved process, documentation for which can be found at: http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/kernelconfig.html And in the config(8) man page. Note: If you want to build and install the kernel with the ``buildkernel'' and ``installkernel'' targets, you might need to build world before. More information is available in the handbook. The sample kernel configuration files reside in the sys/<arch>/conf sub-directory (assuming that you've installed the kernel sources), the file named GENERIC being the one used to build your initial installation kernel. The file NOTES contains entries and documentation for all possible devices, not just those commonly used. It is the successor of the ancient LINT file, but in contrast to LINT, it is not buildable as a kernel but a pure reference and documentation file.
