I have changed NDISulator to load 3rd party *.SYS from userspace via ioctl on /dev/ndis. For now i can do reprobe by reloading if_ndis.ko module. Loading if_ndis.ko ideally should not cause reprobe but reprobe should be done after ioctl on /dev/ndis. Perhaps devclass_add_driver from sys/kern/subr_bus can do this? _______________________________________________ freebsd-hackers@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-hackers To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-hackers-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
