Hi all,
Not sure if -kernel or -drivers is the right list, please direct me
if I guessed wrong. -drivers mentioned hardware drivers, and this is
not talking to hardware, but a pure software network interface.
I'm plodding my way through trying to convert the tun/tap driver over
to the new KPI's.
Maybe this is more work than I thought, but so far I've been
replacing the mutex, mbuf, and ifnet stuff with the new
"equivalents", however the tun/tap code is doing some work with the
ifqueues on the interface, and I can see no API call to get this
information, and you can not access the ifnet->snd structure element
directly (for good reason, I know). I must be daft and overlooking
it, or there is much more rework required than I was hoping was in
there.
Anyway, this is a learning project for me, surely Mattias will finish
the rework before I do, even if it takes him a few weeks. :-) But,
hope is good, and I may get it to work eventually and will have
learned something in the process.
Thanks,
Steve
