type of software interrupt. Roughly, what used to be a bit in spending
now maps to a swi thread. Each thread can have multiple handlers, just
like a hardware interrupt thread.
- Instead of using a bitmask of pending interrupts, we schedule the specific
software interrupt thread to run, so spending, NSWI, and the shandlers
array are no longer needed. We can now have an arbitrary number of
software interrupt threads. When you register a software interrupt
thread via sinthand_add(), you get back a struct intrhand that you pass
to sched_swi() when you wish to schedule your swi thread to run.
- Convert the name of 'struct intrec' to 'struct intrhand' as it is a bit
more intuitive. Also, prefix all the members of struct intrhand with
'ih_'.
- Make swi_net() a MI function since there is now no point in it being
MD.

sifficient. But somewhere (I believe in the UDP stuff), someone is
overwriting an mbuf without calling m_pullup() first. This results in
broad- and multi-cast traffic that is passed through the bridge getting
corrupted.
This should be backed out when there is some assurance that the upper
layers (and I suppose all of the device drivers) are fixed.

This forces a rename of the eventhandler and the standard clone

The tap driver is used to present a virtual Ethernet interface to the
system. Packets presented by the network stack to the interface are
made available to a character device in /dev. With tap and the bridge
code, you can make remote bridge configurations where both sides of
the bridge are separated by userland daemons.
This driver also has a special naming hack to allow it to serve a similar
purpose to the vmware port.

This means 'options NETGRAPH' is no longer necessary in order to get

demux engine and the raw device, respectively. This enables bridging

address on an interface. This basically allows you to do what my
little setmac module/utility does via ifconfig. This involves the
following changes:
socket.h: define SIOCSIFLLADDR
if.c: add support for SIOCSIFLLADDR, which resets the values in
the arpcom struct and sockaddr_dl for the specified interface.
Note that if the interface is already up, we need to down/up
it in order to program the underlying hardware's receive filter.
ifconfig.c: add lladdr command
ifconfig.8: document lladdr command
You can now force the MAC address on any ethernet interface to be
whatever you want. (The change is not sticky across reboots of course:
we don't actually reprogram the EEPROM or anything.) Actually, you
can reprogram the MAC address on other kinds of interfaces too; this
shouldn't be ethernet-specific (though at the moment it's limited to
6 bytes of address data).
Nobody ran up to me and said "this is the politically correct way to
do this!" so I don't want to hear any complaints from people who think
I could have done it more elegantly. Consider yourselves lucky I didn't
do it by having ifconfig tread all over /dev/kmem.
