Hi, We should migrate drivers to use a multi-input method where it's appropriate. It's the same pain as if_transmit() is/was.
I'd really like to avoid having hacky solutions like mbufs with magic types. If we're going down that path, we should create a correct inline messaging mechanism that includes arbitrary messages in the stream, where some may or may not be mbufs. Magic mbufs just makes me want to tear out my eyes a little. So, the reason I'd like to back it out is because we should be doing it via a multi method with some type that represents an mbuf list. If George doesn't mind, I'll add a multi input method, move this stuff into it, and make ether_input just be single frames. -adrian _______________________________________________ svn-src-all@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/svn-src-all To unsubscribe, send any mail to "svn-src-all-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
