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.
handling, ether_mediastatus() and ether_mediachange(). Check for
a non-ENXIO error return from mii_mediachg(). (ENXIO indicates
that a PHY is suspended.)
This patch shrinks the source code size by 979 lines. There was
a 5100-byte savings on the NetBSD/i386 kernel configuration, ALL.
I have made a few miscellaneous changes, too:
gem(4): use LIST_EMPTY(), LIST_FOREACH().
mtd(4): handle media ioctls, for a change!
axe(4): do not track link status in sc->axe_link any longer
nfe(4), aue(4), axe(4), udav(4), url(4): do not reset all PHYs
on a change of media
Except for the change to mtd(4), no functional changes are intended.

- Reduce available SPL levels for hardware devices to none, vm, sched, high.
- Acquire kernel_lock only for interrupts at IPL_VM.
- Implement threaded soft interrupts.
error = (cmd == SIOCADDMULTI) ?
ether_addmulti(ifr, &sc->sc_ec) :
ether_delmulti(ifr, &sc->sc_ec);

if ((error = ether_ioctl(ifp, cmd, data)) == ENETRESET) {
which does the same thing.
(A bazillion is a very large number. This seems to make the i386
ALL kernel smaller by 3kB to 4kB.)
Use ifreq_getaddr() twice in es(4).
Whitespace nits.
identify sockaddr_dl abuse that remains in the kernel, especially
the potential for overwriting memory past the end of a sockaddr_dl
with, e.g., memcpy(LLADDR(), ...).
Patch by Slava Semushin <slava.semushin@gmail.com>
Again, this was tested by comparing obj files from a pristine and a patched
source tree against an i386/ALL kernel, and also for src/sbin/fsck_ffs,
src/sbin/fsdb and src/usr.sbin/makefs. Only changes in assert() line numbers
were detected in 'objdump -d' output.
-convert submatch() style functions (passed to config_search() or
config_found_sm()) to the locator passing variants
-pass interface attributes in some cases
-make submatch() functions look uniformly as far as possible
-avoid macros which just hide cfdata members, and reduce dependencies
on "locators.h"
which bustype should be attached with a specific call to config_found()
(from a "mainbus" or a bus bridge).
Do it for isa/eisa/mca and pci/agp for now. These buses all attach to
an mi interface attribute "isabus", "eisabus" etc., and the autoconf
framework now allows to specify an interface attribute on config_found()
and config_search(), which limits the search of matching config data
to these which attach to that specific attribute.
So we basically have to call config_found_ia(..., "foobus", ...) where
such a bus is attached.
As a consequence, where a "mainbus" or alike also attaches other
devices (eg CPUs) which do not attach to a specific attribute yet,
we need at least pass an attribute name (different from "foobus") so
that the foo bus is not found at these places. This made some minor
changes necessary which are not obviously related to the mentioned buses.
