Yes.  FWIW, all the Clearview /dev/net nodes are DLPI style-1 *only*.
Since those will be what applications interact with in the future,
we're on our way to getting rid of "style-2 disease".

IIRC, switching to sys/netlb.h would allow SunVTS coverage.

Yes, I believe that is true. What I'm not sure of, is whether there is a custom SunVTS module in place for dmfe. (It wouldn't surprise to learn that there is.) Is SunVTS open sourced? :-)
The lookback test of Sun VTS is quite special. It seems it requires code changes in Sun VTS for new driver supporting. I'm not sure why? Does anybody know about it?
