Sorry but my reation is: eww. There's no way I'd commit that. You'd be randomly loading the vlan code for any interface that had a dot in it. The real change we should make it to add device vlan to GENERIC. It's long past time for it to be in by default. -- Brooks > --- sbin/ifconfig/ifconfig.c 2009-10-26 14:11:16 +0000 > +++ sbin/ifconfig/ifconfig.c 2009-10-28 21:43:07 +0000 > @@ -998,6 +998,10 @@ > break; > } > > + /* try to load vlan module if interface name is device.vlan_id */ > + if (index(name, '.') != NULL) > + strlcpy(ifname, "vlan", sizeof(ifname)); > + > /* turn interface and unit into module name */ > strcpy(ifkind, "if_"); > strlcpy(ifkind + MOD_PREFIX_LEN, ifname, > > > > > > -- > Artis Caune > > Everything should be made as simple as possible, but not simpler. > _______________________________________________ > freebsd-net@freebsd.org mailing list > http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-net > To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-net-unsubscr...@freebsd.org" >
