Hello, If I knew we almost made it compile and boot (with dummynet, pf and pflog loaded), I would postpone the previous email. :o)
The code I'm working on is https://github.com/mekanix/freebsd/tree/feature/pf+dummynet/12.0. It is nothing more than releng/12.0 branch into which I copied parts of PFSense code until it started working. I still don't know how to test it, as I'm not sure what's the PFSense's syntax for pf.conf. I know you can use "ipfw pipe list" to show the pipes without ipfw module loaded. Once loaded, ipfw lets you manage dummynet. What I do for now is load ipfw, set the pipes, unload ipfw. If anyone knows how to configure pf.conf so that it passes everything it receives to dummynet, I'm all ears. I will "fork" /sbin/ipfw and create /sbin/dnctl so we don't have to depend on IPFW at all, but I would like it to start working like this, first. My concerns about this patch is that it changes IPFW, too. I don't know if the following link is visible if you're not logged into github, but it shows the difference between releng/12.0 and this branch: https://github.com/freebsd/freebsd/compare/releng/12.0...mekanix:feature/pf+dummynet/12.0?expand=1 Anyway, my priority is to make it work somehow, then clean it up, port to -CURRENT and only then write dnctl. As always, all help is more than welcome as this is my first kernel development task ever. Regards, meka
