Does anyone have comments or suggestions as to changes that I might make
for checkin into generic FreeBSD? It was originally written for 4.x but
with 6.x in mind.
It is now running on 6.1 and seems to be ok so far.

Certainly I am interested in hearing from Robert and Luigi and I am
particularly interested in
what people think on how this will handle locking/SMP difficulies.


Instead of putting more special processing to every L2-entry point in the system, I'd prefer if we could finally get round to L2 pfil hooks. That would make it much easier to add such functionality in a common hook function and use it everywhere.


I agree with Max here, I think it's time we look at getting together pfil hooks for layer 2. I would be interested in doing the leg work here if you guys are willing to review it.

The divert code changes are sort-of irrelevant to this discussion.
it adds an ISR to handle divert input from L2.
