device drivers to declare that the ifp->if_start() method implemented
by the driver requires Giant in order to operate correctly.
Add a 'struct task' to 'struct ifnet' that can be used to execute a
deferred ifp->if_start() in the event that if_start needs to be called
in a Giant-free environment. To do this, introduce if_start(), a
wrapper function for ifp->if_start(). If the interface can run MPSAFE,
it directly dispatches into the interface start routine. If it can't
run MPSAFE, we're running with debug.mpsafenet != 0, and Giant isn't
currently held, the task is queued to execute in a swi holding Giant
via if_start_deferred().
Modify if_handoff() to use if_start() instead of direct dispatch.
Modify 802.11 to use if_start() instead of direct dispatch.
This is intended to provide increased compatibility for non-MPSAFE

interfaces as IFF_NEEDSGIANT.
Now it is user-controlled through ifconfig(8).
The former ``automagic'' way of operation created more
trouble than good. First, VLAN_MTU consumers other than
vlan(4) had appeared, e.g., ng_vlan(4). Second, there was
no way to disable VLAN_MTU manually if it were causing
trouble, e.g., data corruption.
Dropping the ``automagic'' should be completely invisible
to the user since
a) all the drivers supporting VLAN_MTU
have it enabled by default, and in the first place
b) there is only one driver that can really toggle VLAN_MTU
in the hardware under its control (it's fxp(4), to which
I added VLAN_MTU controls to illustrate the principle.)

only allow this to be further processed when bridging is active on
that interface, but also if the current packet has a VLAN tag and
VLANs are active on our interface. This gives the VLAN layers a
chance to also consider the packet (and perhaps drop it instead of the

This fixes a situation where bridging was only active on VLAN
interfaces but ether_demux() called on behalf of the main interface
had already thrown the packet away.

stf0, stf, or 6to4. This is the only major user visible change in
that "ifconfig stf" creates the interface stf rather then stf0 and

- Allow destroy functions to fail so they can refuse to delete
interfaces. Currently, we forbid the deletion of interfaces which
were created in the init function, particularly lo0, pflog0, and

does not count as a user visiable change. :-)

recursive entering of the socket code from the routing code:
- Modify rt_dispatch() to bundle up the sockaddr family, if any,
associated with a pending mbuf to dispatch to routing sockets, in
an m_tag on the mbuf.
- Allocate NETISR_ROUTE for use by routing sockets.
- Introduce rtsintrq, an ifqueue to be used by the netisr, and
introduce rts_input(), a function to unbundle the tagged sockaddr
and inject the mbuf and address into raw_input(), which previously
occurred in rt_dispatch().
- Introduce rts_init() to initialize rtsintrq, its mutex, and
register the netisr. Perform this at the same point in system
initialization as setup of the domains.
This change introduces asynchrony between the generation of a
pending routing socket message and delivery to sockets for use
by userspace. It avoids socket->routing->rtsock->socket use and
helps to avoid lock order reversals between the routing code and
socket code (in particular, raw socket control blocks), as route
locks are held over calls to rt_dispatch().

1. rt_check() cleanup:
rt_check() is only necessary for some address families to gain access
to the corresponding arp entry, so call it only in/near the *resolve()
routines where it is actually used -- at the moment this is
arpresolve(), nd6_storelladdr() (the call is embedded here),
and atmresolve() (the call is just before atmresolve to reduce
the number of changes).
This change will make it a lot easier to decouple the arp table
from the routing table.
There is an extra call to rt_check() in if_iso88025subr.c to
determine the routing info length. I have left it alone for
the time being.
The interface of arpresolve() and nd6_storelladdr() now changes slightly:
+ the 'rtentry' parameter (really a hint from the upper level layer)
is now passed unchanged from *_output(), so it becomes the route
to the final destination and not to the gateway.
+ the routines will return 0 if resolution is possible, non-zero
otherwise.
+ arpresolve() returns EWOULDBLOCK in case the mbuf is being held
waiting for an arp reply -- in this case the error code is masked
in the caller so the upper layer protocol will not see a failure.

Eventually (but before freezing the ABI) we need to get rid of
struct arpcom (initially with the help of some smart #defines
to avoid having to touch each and every driver, see below).
Apart from the struct ifnet, struct arpcom now only stores a copy
of the MAC address (ac_enaddr, but we already have another copy in
the struct ifnet -- if_addrhead), and a netgraph-specific field
which is _always_ accessed through the ifp, so it might well go
into the struct ifnet too (where, besides, there is already an entry
for AF_NETGRAPH data...)
Too bad ac_enaddr is widely referenced by all drivers. But
this can be fixed as follows:
#define ac_enaddr ac_if.the_original_ac_enaddr_in_struct_ifnet
