This is caused by bpf_detachd clearing IFF_PROMISC on the interface which does

stopped, IFF_UP has not been cleared so IFF_UP != IFF_DRV_RUNNING, this causes
the ioctl function to init() the interface which resets the callouts.
The destroy then completes and frees the softc but softclock will panic on a

enhance the security of bpf(4) by further relinquishing the privilege of
the bpf(4) consumer (assuming the ioctl commands are being implemented).
Once BIOCLOCK is executed, the device becomes locked which prevents the
execution of ioctl(2) commands which can change the underly parameters of the
bpf(4) device. An example might be the setting of bpf(4) filter programs or
attaching to different network interfaces.
BIOCSETWF can be used to set write filters for outgoing packets. Currently if
a bpf(4) consumer is compromised, the bpf(4) descriptor can essentially be used
as a raw socket, regardless of consumer's UID. Write filters give users the
ability to constrain which packets can be sent through the bpf(4) descriptor.
These features are currently implemented by a couple programs which came from
OpenBSD, such as the new dhclient and pflogd.
-Modify bpf_setf(9) to accept a "cmd" parameter. This will be used to specify
whether a read or write filter is to be set.
-Add a bpf(4) filter program as a parameter to bpf_movein(9) as we will run the
filter program on the mbuf data once we move the packet in from user-space.
-Rather than execute two uiomove operations, (one for the link header and the
other for the packet data), execute one and manually copy the linker header
into the sockaddr structure via bcopy.
-Restructure bpf_setf to compensate for write filters, as well as read.
-Adjust bpf(4) stats structures to include a bd_locked member.
It should be noted that the FreeBSD and OpenBSD implementations differ a bit in
the sense that we unconditionally enforce the lock, where OpenBSD enforces it
only if the calling credential is not root.

devolved to plus some error handling. This should probably be replaced

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

Provide #defines to provide the old names #ifndef _KERNEL, so that user
