freebsd with flexible iflib nic queues

and predictable way, and I apologize if I have gotten it wrong anywhere, getting prior review on a patch like this is not feasible, considering the number of people involved and hardware availability etc.) If struct disklabel is the messenger: kill the messenger. Inside struct disk we had a struct disklabel which disk drivers used to communicate certain metrics to the disklayer above (GEOM or the disk mini-layer). This commit changes this communication to use four explicit fields instead. Amongst the benefits is that the fields do not get overwritten by wrong or bogus on-disk disklabels. Once that is clear, <sys/disk.h> which is included in the drivers no longer need to pull <sys/disklabel.h> and <sys/diskslice.h> in, the few places that needs them, have gotten explicit #includes for them. The disklabel inside struct disk is now only for internal use in the disk mini-layer, so instead of embedding it, we malloc it as we need it. This concludes (modulus any mistakes) the series of disklabel related commits. I belive it all amounts to a NOP for all the rest of you :-) Sponsored by: DARPA & NAI Labs. |

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 ``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.
