the opportunity to handle an ioctl before generic ifioctl handling
occurs. This will ease extending the kernel and sharing of code
between drivers.
First steps: Make the signature of ifioctl_common() match struct
ifinet->if_ioctl. Convert SIOCSIFCAP and SIOCSIFMTU to the new
ifioctl() regime, throughout the kernel.
- be persistent on initializing interfaces, even if there's manually-
assigned linklocal, multicast/whatever initialization is necessary.
- do not cache mac addr in the kernel. grab mac addr from existing cards
(this is important when you swap ethernet cards back and forth)
now ppp6 works just fine!
call in6_ifattach() on ATM PVC interface to assign link-local, using
hardware MAC address as seed.
(the change is in sync with kame tree).
(Sorry for a big commit, I can't separate this into several pieces...)
Pls check sys/netinet6/TODO and sys/netinet6/IMPLEMENTATION for details.
- sys/kern: do not assume single mbuf, accept chained mbuf on passing
data from userland to kernel (or other way round).
- "midway" ATM card: ATM PVC pseudo device support, like those done in ALTQ
package (ftp://ftp.csl.sony.co.jp/pub/kjc/).
- sys/netinet/tcp*: IPv4/v6 dual stack tcp support.
- sys/netinet/{ip6,icmp6}.h, sys/net/pfkeyv2.h: IETF document assumes those
file to be there so we patch it up.
- sys/netinet: IPsec additions are here and there.
- sys/netinet6/*: most of IPv6 code sits here.
- sys/netkey: IPsec key management code
- dev/pci/pcidevs: regen
In my understanding no code here is subject to export control so it
should be safe.
we can't use up all of the remaining sc->txslot[chan].bfree free
bytes) because that would cause the circular buffer read pointer
to become equal to the write pointer, thus signaling 'empty buffer'
to the hardware and stopping the transmitter. spotted and fixed
