Re: ALTQ support in vr(4)?

2005-01-07 Thread Olof Samuelsson

Sorry for wasting everyones bandwidth and time .. thanks to Dominic
Marks I have re-read my own question and actually *read* the altq(9)
manpage in addition to the altq(4) manpage... I make the conclusion
that if the IFQ_* macros are used in the driver source, the driver is
ALTQified.

I also draw the conclusion that vr(4) supports ALTQ and will test this
later this weekend.  I guess that the release notes are a little wrong
too.

BR,
Olof

ALTQ support in vr(4)?

2005-01-07 Thread Olof Samuelsson
Hello, I've noticed a discrepancy between the ALTQ manpage and the
release notes (both in 5.3):

altq(4) says:
SUPPORTED DEVICES
 The driver modifications described in altq(9) and required to use
 a certain network card with ALTQ have been applied to the
 following hardware drivers an(4), ath(4), awi(4), bfe(4), dc(4),
 em(4), fxp(4), hme(4), lnc(4), wi(4), de(4), rl(4), sis(4), vr(4)
>!
 and xl(4).

Whereas http://www.freebsd.org/releases/5.3R/relnotes-i386.html says:

The ALTQ framework has been imported from a KAME snapshot as of 7 June
2004. This import breaks ABI compatibility of struct ifnet and
requires all network drives to be recompiled. Additionally, some
of the networking drivers have been modified to support the ALTQ
framework. Updated drivers are bfe(4), em(4), fxp(4), em(4),
lnc(4), tun(4), de(4), rl(4), sis(4), and xl(4).

Which list is correct?  What should I look for in the driver source?

Btw, em(4) is mentioned twice in the release notes ... hme(4)?

Olof
