- don't declare `struct arpcom' except in the kernel, so that there is no
dependency on <net/if.h> except in the kernel. This may break something
else.
- spell ETHER_ADDR_LEN as 6 again, so that there is no dependency on
<net/ethernet.h> even in the kernel.
This will not make any of object files that LINT create change; there
might be differences with INET disabled, but hardly anything compiled
before without INET anyway. Now the 'obvious' things will give a
proper error if compiled without inet - ipx_ip, ipfw, tcp_debug. The
only thing that _should_ work (but can't be made to compile reasonably
easily) is sppp :-(
This commit move struct arpcom from <netinet/if_ether.h> to
<net/if_arp.h>.
In sppp_chap_input:
1) in the CHAP_CHALLENGE case don't output the peer's name if it is not
what we expected (DEBUG) since it will be printed out in the course
of events anyway.
2) in the CHAP_SUCCESS case test whether the peer is required to
authenticate himself [(sp->lcp.opts & (1 << LCP_OPT_AUTH_PROTO))],
otherwise the state machine may never switch into the network state.
I saw this case against 2 different ISPs; they never bothered to
authenticate themselves to me.
In sppp_pap_input:
in the PAP_ACK case do the same as in 2) above for the same reason.
The #ifdef IPXIP in netipx/ipx_if.h is OK (used from ipx_usrreq.c and
ifconfig.c only).
I also fixed a typo IPXTUNNEL -> IPTUNNEL (and #ifdef'ed out the code
inside, as it never could have compiled - doh.)
Fixed nonblocking mode. It was per-device instead of per-file. This
also fixes clobbering of bd_rtout by overloading it to hold a wrong
version of the blocking flag. I hope nothing depends on the bugs.
Testing in if_ppp.c is good enough.
Added comments about bogus #includes and #defines.
Removed unused #includes.
Don't depend on gcc's misfeature of rewriting short args in old-style
function definitions to match wrong prototypes. I just changed the
function definition to match the prototype, since this is easy to
verify automatically (it causes no changes in the object code), but
it breaks K&R1 support and doesn't fix the pessimal type.
Use gettime() instead of microtime() to set if_lastchange for i/o's.
microtime() is probably too expensive. However, setting if_lastchange
for i/o's may be wrong.
volatile to use outside of splclock(). microtime() is probably too
expensive to use for every i/o. However, setting ifi_lastchange for
every i/o is just wrong according to the comment about ifi_lastchange
in <net/if.h>. It is set then for atm, fddi and the latest version
of ppp.)
Some of these changes are a bit rough and will become
more polished later. the changes to if_ethersubr should largely be moved
to within the appletalk code, but that will happen later.
A few of these were related to network-byteorder problems,
and more were related to loopback failures.
Distribute all but the most fundamental malloc types. This time I also
remembered the trick to making things static: Put "static" in front of
them.
A couple of finer points by: bde
Introduce the SIOC[SG]IFGENERIC hooks that can be used to pass an
arbritrary ioctl subcommand into an interface driver. Surprisingly
enough, there was no provision for this already present (except of the
option of abusing SIOC[SG]IFMEDIA for this).
The idea is that an interface driver can establish ioctl subcommands
of its own that can't be meaningfully interpreted by the upper layer
interface ioctl function. Something like this is required to
implement a clean solution of passing down things like CHAP secrets or
PPP options to the /sys/net/if_sppp* files. (Yes, my CHAP is now
finally working with it, but i gotta update my kernel to the new
callout interface before being able to commit _that_.)
