The driver puts the adapter in promisc mode to receive multicast addresses.
At last set the IFF_PROMISC flag so that the upper layer filters frames
that are not for us.
Sure, the real fix would be to get multicast filters working ...
- Add support for byte system bus mode. Based on patch in kern/17193 by
Christian Groessler, with some improvements by me.
- Rename sc_flags in mb86960_softc to sc_stat, rename "type" to sc_flags
to specify controller quirks and remove enum mb86960_type.
- Pass controller type via new sc_flags in mb86960_softc rather than
via an mb86960_attach() arg.
- Handle unaligned mbufs properly in mb86960_write_mbufs(). (from ne2000.c)
- Fix a signed/unsigned comparision warning.
- Add definitions of status bits in the RX packed header.
- Change types of some members in mb86960_softc.
This merge changes the device switch tables from static array to
dynamically generated by config(8).
- All device switches is defined as a constant structure in device drivers.
- The new grammer ``device-major'' is introduced to ``files''.
device-major <prefix> char <num> [block <num>] [<rules>]
- All device major numbers must be listed up in port dependent majors.<arch>
by using this grammer.
- Added the new naming convention.
The name of the device switch must be <prefix>_[bc]devsw for auto-generation
of device switch tables.
- The backward compatibility of loading block/character device
switch by LKM framework is broken. This is necessary to convert
from block/character device major to device name in runtime and vice versa.
- The restriction to assign device major by LKM is completely removed.
We don't need to reserve LKM entries for dynamic loading of device switch.
- In compile time, device major numbers list is packed into the kernel and
the LKM framework will refer it to assign device major number dynamically.
previously to note that they reference the RCS ID in "pcmciadevs".
Hence, committed versions which incorrectly pointed back to the RCS ID
of the "pcmciadevs" that existed prior to my addition. Corrected in this
commit.
already support under another name:
wi0 at pcmcia0 function 0: NETGEAR MA401RA Wireless PC, Card, ISL37300PEval-RevA
wi0: 802.11 address <whatever>
wi0: using RF:PRISM2.5 MAC:ISL3873B(PCMCIA)
wi0: Intersil Firmware: Primary (1.0.7), Station (1.3.6)
- centralize pcmcia function allocation and free'ing.
- free the cfe too, not just the pf in the multifunction card case.
- don't free pointers while walking the list, because free() will
fill the memory with deadbeef, thus killing list walking.
