Add a note that suggests a cleanup.
Note: This patch was derived based on looking at the pvrxxx/pvr250
ports' Makefiles only, and may be incomplete. It is not derived from
anything I saw from Hauppage.
- Change smbus_callback() to pass a void * rather than caddr_t.
- Change smbus_bread() to pass a pointer to the count and have it be an
in/out parameter. The input is the size of the buffer (same as before),
but on return it will contain the actual amount of data read back from
the bus. Note that this value may be larger than the input value. It
is up to the caller to treat this as an error if desired.
- Change the SMB_BREAD ioctl to write out the updated struct smbcmd which
will contain the actual number of bytes read in the 'count' field. To
preserve the previous ABI, the old ioctl value is mapped to SMB_OLD_BREAD
which doesn't copy the updated smbcmd back out to userland. I doubt anyone
actually used the old BREAD anyway as it was rediculous to do a bulk-read
but not tell the using program how much data was actually read.
- Make the smbus driver and devclass public in the smbus module and
push all the DRIVER_MODULE()'s for attaching the smbus driver to
various foosmb drivers out into the foosmb modules. This makes all
the foosmb logic centralized and allows new foosmb modules to be
self-contained w/o having to hack smbus.c everytime a new smbus driver
is added.
- Add a new SMB_EINVAL error bit and use it in place of EINVAL to return
an error for bad arguments (such as invalid counts for bread and bwrite).
- Map SMB bus error bits to EIO in smbus_error().
- Make the smbus driver call bus_generic_probe() and require child drivers
such as smb(4) to create device_t's via identify routines. Previously,
smbus just created one anonymous device during attach, and if you had
multiple drivers that could attach it was just random chance as to which
driver got to probe for the sole device_t first.
- Add a mutex to the smbus(4) softc and use it in place of dummy splhigh()
to protect the 'owner' field and perform necessary synchronization for
smbus_request_bus() and smbus_release_bus().
- Change the bread() and bwrite() methods of alpm(4), amdpm(4), and
viapm(4) to only perform a single transaction and not try to use a
loop of multiple transactions for a large request. The framing and
commands to use for a large transaction depend on the upper-layer
protocol (such as SSIF for IPMI over SMBus) from what I can tell, and the
smb(4) driver never allowed bulk read/writes of more than 32-bytes
anyway. The other smb drivers only performed single transactions.
- Fix buffer overflows in the bread() methods of ichsmb(4), alpm(4),
amdpm(4), amdsmb(4), intpm(4), and nfsmb(4).
- Use SMB_xxx errors in viapm(4).
- Destroy ichsmb(4)'s mutex after bus_generic_detach() to avoid problems
from child devices making smb upcalls that would use the mutex during
their detach methods.

forcing all transfers to do the start read/write stop by hand. Some
smart bridges prefer this sort of operation, and this allows us to
support their features more easily. When bridges don't support it, we
fall back to using the old-style opertaions. Expand the ioctl
interface to expose this function. Unlike the old-style interface,
this interface is thread safe, even on old bridges.

IFF_DRV_RUNNING, as well as the move from ifnet.if_flags to
ifnet.if_drv_flags. Device drivers are now responsible for
synchronizing access to these flags, as they are in if_drv_flags. This
helps prevent races between the network stack and device driver in
maintaining the interface flags field.

a DLT_NULL interface. In particular:
1) Consistently use type u_int32_t for the header of a
DLT_NULL device - it continues to represent the address
family as always.
2) In the DLT_NULL case get bpf_movein to store the u_int32_t
in a sockaddr rather than in the mbuf, to be consistent
with all the DLT types.
3) Consequently fix a bug in bpf_movein/bpfwrite which
only permitted packets up to 4 bytes less than the MTU
to be written.
4) Fix all DLT_NULL devices to have the code required to
allow writing to their bpf devices.
5) Move the code to allow writing to if_lo from if_simloop
to looutput, because it only applies to DLT_NULL devices
but was being applied to other devices that use if_simloop
possibly incorrectly.

struct ifnet or the layer 2 common structure it was embedded in have
been replaced with a struct ifnet pointer to be filled by a call to the
new function, if_alloc(). The layer 2 common structure is also allocated
via if_alloc() based on the interface type. It is hung off the new
struct ifnet member, if_l2com.
This change removes the size of these structures from the kernel ABI and
will allow us to better manage them as interfaces come and go.
Other changes of note:
- Struct arpcom is no longer referenced in normal interface code.
Instead the Ethernet address is accessed via the IFP2ENADDR() macro.
To enforce this ac_enaddr has been renamed to _ac_enaddr.
- The second argument to ether_ifattach is now always the mac address
from driver private storage rather than sometimes being ac_enaddr.

before adding/removing packets from the queue. Also, the if_obytes and
if_omcasts fields should only be manipulated under protection of the mutex.
IF_ENQUEUE, IF_PREPEND, and IF_DEQUEUE perform all necessary locking on
the queue. An IF_LOCK macro is provided, as well as the old (mutex-less)
versions of the macros in the form _IF_ENQUEUE, _IF_QFULL, for code which
needs them, but their use is discouraged.
Two new macros are introduced: IF_DRAIN() to drain a queue, and IF_HANDOFF,
which takes care of locking/enqueue, and also statistics updating/start
if necessary.
