src/sys/net: if.c if.h
Log Message:
Start to untangle the ifnet ioctls mess.
Add ifnet functions, if_mcast_op(), if_flags_set(), and if_addr_init()
for adding/deleting multicast addresses, modifying the if_flags,
and initializing local/remote addresses. Make ifpromisc() use
if_flags_set(). Protocols and network drivers should use these
instead of ifp->if_ioctl() calls. Subsequent commits will
replace ifp->if_ioctl(SIOCADDMULTI| SIOCDELMULTI| SIOCSIFDSTADDR|
SIOCINITIFADDR| SIOCSIFFLAGS) calls with calls to the new functions.
Use a mutex(9) to synchronize ifp->if_ioctl() calls originating in
userland. Also synchronize ifp->if_ioctl() calls with ifnet detachment
and reclamation.
