Just to clarify- Tiger maintains binary backwards compatibility with
pre-Tiger IONetworkingFamily drivers. However if you are compiling a
driver under Tiger it will require some modification to use the mbuf
kpi accessor function instead of direct access to the mbuf.

Tiger uses mbufs. The mbufs are allocated and manipulated through
accessor functions. IOKit based Ethernet drivers should continue to
work without modification. If you weren't going through IOKit, you may
need to move your driver over to the KPIs.
On A Tiger system with developer tools installed, the following URL
should get you to the appropriate documentation:
<file:///Developer/ADC Reference Library/referencelibrary/Darwin/
idxKernel-date.html>
If you have specific questions about the KPIs, this is a good place to
ask them.

Our USB Ethernet shim is not working with the released version of
Tiger. The shim uses mBufs successfully on 10.3. Has there been some
change or work around required to get memory for a kext in 10.4 ? Has
anyone else found a similar problem? Is this the right list for this
subject? thanks Harland Harrison 2wire.com
