great! i studied the code and i couldn't find any issues
in any of the relevant paths, so i'm glad to hear it's
supposed to be like this.
for one particular case (ether_ioctl) how is this diff:
- * Common ioctls for Ethernet interfaces. Note, we must be
- * called at splnet().
+ * Common ioctls for Ethernet interfaces.
+ *
+ * Non IFEF_MPSAFE drivers must call this function at at least called
+ * at splsoftnet().
or should they also be with kernel lock?
thanks.
