This is important, because for most protocols, link level fragmentation is
used, but with different default effective MTUs. (e.g.: IPv4 default MTU
is 1500 octets, IPv6 default MTU is 9072 octets).
again when switching link0 on.
XXX This stuff needs to be thought about, especially with the doomming IPv6
support, which uses yet another default mtu.
directly, call the function pointer (*if_input)(ifp, m). The input routine
expects the packet header to be at the head of the packet, and will adjust
as necessary. Privatize the layer 2 input and output routines, allowing
*_ifattach() to set them up as appropriate.
this fixed in the figures (but still not in the text); anyway, the intention
of the ATA is that this is identical to the PHDS specification.
Remove the ...EXC_8782 constant, and change the _EXC_1201 constant to be
a simple ...EXC.
Among other, add ARPHRD_ARCNET definition, make sure the hardware type is
set on outgoing ARP packets, make sure we dont send out replies as broadcasts.
Some of the stuff (e.g., rarpd, bootpd, dhcpd etc., libsa) still will
only support Ethernet. Tcpdump itself should be ok, but libpcap needs
lot of work.
For the detailed change history, look at the commit log entries for
the is-newarp branch.
"The mapping of IP Class D addresses to local addresses is
currently specified for the following types of networks:
[...]
o Any network that supports broadcast but not multicast,
addressing: all IP Class D addresses map to the local
broadcast address."
device and a printable "external name" (name + unit number), thus eliminating
if_name and if_unit. Updated interface to (*if_watchdog)() and (*if_reset)()
to take a struct ifnet *, rather than a unit number.
