I'm working on an Ethernet driver for FreeBSD. The VLAN hw tagging is already working properly, but my nic is capable of holding a vlan table on hw, filtering vlans on it's own. I need to find a way to update that hw table. one way is to recieve a ioctl from the OS of it's vlan table event (add, remove). I can't find such ioctl. second is to have a direct access from the driver to the OS vlan table. I'm not familiar with the interface or if it's possible at all, and that is my actual question.
