porting BSD to Freebsd

2001-07-20 Thread Marcelo Carvalho
Hi, In BSD, the /sys/malloc.h file has a list of definitions of "types of memory to be allocated" that doesn't appear in the corresponding file in Freebsd. Does anybody know where can I find the corresponding information in FreeBSD? Are they defined as well? Thanks. __

I plan to MFC the network interface cloning support and the gif modularization early next week unless someone has objections. I'd like to get it in before the code slush and since I'll be leaving for a week on the 31st, that means sometime early to mid next week to allow for any bug reports. I d

Re: why mbuf?

2001-07-20 Thread Julian Elischer
Do you mean why did the original BSD people choose the methos used in the mbuf code in 1982 (or whenever)? 1/ copying data is a waste of time 2/ incoming packets are of unpredictable size but tend to be either full-size or small with few in between. 3/ memory was expensive and slow On Fri, 20

I have tried to start address autoconfiguration on my FreeBSD-4.0 system by putting ip6mode="autohost" rtsol="YES" rtsol_flags="sm1" # set your interface here in rc.conf and rebooting the system. After reboot I still had only Link-Local-Address only, though a router makes advertisement in Net.

MPLS has been implemented for FreeBSD in the Nistswitch project http://www.antd.nist.gov/itg/nistswitch/ but I don't know the current project status. I've added rudimentary MPLS signalling support to RSVP (label distribution and explicit routing according to draft-ietf-mpls-rsvp-lsp-tunnel-07.txt

why mbuf?

2001-07-20 Thread raviprasad20
Hi, My question is why did you choose mbuf? is it because you are writing the code in unix systems? Is it because mbufs allow us to avoid coping as much as possible? I feel that a linear buffer might have saved some of the mbuf modifications. regards ravi prasad ___

Hi, The following lines are from the Kame implementation notes "Each interface joins the solicited multicast address and the link-local all-nodes multicast addresses (e.g. fe80::1:ff01:6317 and ff02::1, respectively, on the link the interface is attached). In addition to a link-local address,
