if we are requested range of multicast address or too many multicast address,
program multicast filter to receive all multicast address. And set/clear
IFF_ALLMULTI flag properly.
pci_attach_args *" instead of from four separate parameters which in
all cases were extracted from the same "struct pci_attach_args".
This both simplifies the driver api, and allows for alternate PCI
interrupt mapping schemes, such as one using the tables described in
the Intel Multiprocessor Spec which describe interrupt wirings for
devices behind pci-pci bridges based on the device's location rather
the bridge's location.
Tested on alpha and i386; welcome to 1.5Q
timeout()/untimeout() API:
- Clients supply callout handle storage, thus eliminating problems of
resource allocation.
- Insertion and removal of callouts is constant time, important as
this facility is used quite a lot in the kernel.
The old timeout()/untimeout() API has been removed from the kernel.
address against our station address if it's not a multicast packet. Either
the Rhine manual lies about the phys/broadcast/multicast rxstatus bits,
or the Rhine chip is just broken.
Fixes a redirect storm problem reported by Laine Stump on current-users.
* Don't allocate receive buffers until the interface is actually brought
up, and release all of them if the interface is taken down.
* Add a knob (defaults to off) which will copy an incoming packet to
a single header mbuf if it is small enough to fit in one, rather than
burning an entire cluster on it. Note that this change will be mostly
moot if/when sbcompress() it changed to handle compressing clusters.
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.
like the SMC83C100 EPIC/100 driver:
* Rather than using pointers to the head and tail of the transmit and
receive rings, use wrapping indexes into arrays. This is a little more
obvious when reading the code.
* More cleanly separate the hardware descriptor from the software descriptor.
* bus_dma it everywhere.
* Implement interrupt pacing and avoid a potential race in the transmit
loop.
Now this looks more or less like the Rhine driver I was working on when
this driver was committed :-) Update copyright notice to reflect that.
has the same 4-byte alignment requirement that the transmit side does. This
causes the packet payload to be misaligned. So, on systems which require
strict alignment, we must copy the incoming frame to a new packet buffer,
suitably aligned.
