- Remove a lot of superfluous locking during attach. There is no need
to lock access to the driver until some other thread has a way of getting
to it. For ethernet drivers the other ways include registering an
interrupt handler via bus_setup_intr(), calling ether_ifattach() to hook
into the network stack, and kicking off a callout-driven timer via
callout_reset().
- Use callout_* rather than timeout/untimeout.
- Break out of xl_rxeof() if IFF_DRV_RUNNING is clear after ifp->if_input
returns to handle the case where the interface was stopped while we were
passing a packet up the stack. Don't call xl_rxeof() in xl_rxeof_task()
unless IFF_DRV_RUNNING is set. With these fixes in place, any
outstanding task will gracefully terminate as soon as it gets a chance to
run after the interface has been stopped via xl_stop(). As a result,
taskqueue_drain() is no longer required in xl_stop(). The task is still
drained in detach() however to make sure that detach() can safely destroy
the driver mutex at the end of the function.
- Lock the driver lock in the ifmedia callouts and don't lock across
ifmedia_ioctl() in xl_ioctl().
Note: glebius came up with most of (3) as well independently. I took a
rather roundabout way of arriving at the same conclusion.

stayed in dc_init() instead of moving to dc_init_locked() to make the

struct ifnet most of if_findindex() become a complex no-op. Remove it
and replace it with a corrected version of the four line for loop it
devolved to plus some error handling. This should probably be replaced
with subr_unit at some point.
Switch from checking ifaddr_byindex to ifnet_byindex when looking for
empty indexes. Since we're doing this from if_alloc/if_free, we can
only be sure that ifnet_byindex will be correct. This fixes panics when
loading the ef(4) module. The panics were caused by the fact that
if_alloc was called four time before if_attach was called and thus
ifaddr_byindex was not set and the same unit was allocated again. This
in turn caused the first if_attach to fail because the ifp was not the
one in ifnet_byindex(ifp->if_index).

[Some other modules seem in need of fixing WRT this, too.]
Add more compatibility options found in GENERIC to the default

we can't tell for sure if the system .h files don't need them either,
so let's stay on the safe side.

interrupt comes in later on, which can happen in some uncommon cases.
Another possible fix is to call re_detach() instead of re_stop(), like
ve(4) does, but I am not sure if the latter is really RTTD, so that stick
with this one-liner for now.

the serial console speed (i386 and amd64 only). If the previous
stage boot loader requested a serial console (RB_SERIAL or RB_MULTIPLE)
then the default speed is determined from the current serial port
speed. Otherwise it is set to 9600 or the value of BOOT_COMCONSOLE_SPEED
at compile time.
This makes it possible to set the serial port speed once in
/boot.config and the setting will propagate to boot2, loader and
the kernel serial console.
/boot.config or on the "boot:" prompt line via a "-S<speed>" flag,
e.g. "-h -S19200". This adds about 50 bytes to the size of boot2
and required a few other small changes to limit the size impact.
This changes only affects boot2; there are further loader changes
to follow.

by md(4). Before this change, it was possible to by-pass these flags
by creating memory disks which used a file as a backing store and
writing to the device.
This was discussed by the security team, and although this is problematic,
it was decided that it was not critical as we never guarantee that root will
be restricted.
This change implements the following behavior changes:
-If the user specifies the readonly flag, unset write operations before
opening the file. If the FWRITE mask is unset, the device will be
created with the MD_READONLY mask set. (readonly)
-Add a check in g_md_access which checks to see if the MD_READONLY mask
is set, if so return EROFS
-Do not gracefully downgrade access modes without telling the user. Instead
make the user specify their intentions for the device (assuming the file is
read only). This seems like the more correct way to handle things.
This is a RELENG_6 candidate.
