USB NICs. USB network hardware may not be enumerated and available when the rc.d networking scripts run. Eventually the USB attachment completes and devd events cause the network initialization to happen, but by then other rc.d scripts have already failed, because services which depend on NETWORKING (such as mountcritremote) may end up running before the network is actually ready. There is an existing netwait script, but because it is dependent on NETWORKING it runs too late to prevent failure of some other rc scripts. This change flips the order so that NETWORKING depends on netwait, and netwait now depends on devd and routing (the former is needed to make interfaces appear, and the latter is needed to run the ping tests in netwait). The netwait script used to be oriented primarily towards "as soon as any host is reachable the network is fully functional", so you gave it a list of IPs to try and you could optionally name an interface and it would wait for carrier on that interface. That functionality still works the same, but now you can provide a list of interfaces to wait for and it waits until each one of them is available. The ping logic still completes as soon as the first IP on the list responds. These changes were submitted by Brenden Molloy <brendan+freebsd@bbqsrc.net> in PR 205186, and lightly modified by me to allow a list of interfaces instead of just one.

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. See build(7) and http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/makeworld.html for more information, including setting make(1) variables. 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. See build(7), config(8), and http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/kernelconfig.html for more information. 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 kernel configuration files reside in the sys/<arch>/conf sub-directory. GENERIC is the default configuration used in release builds. NOTES contains entries and documentation for all possible devices, not just those commonly used.
