NAME

iflib – Network Interface Driver Framework

CONTENTS

DESCRIPTION

iflib is a framework for writing network interface drivers for FreeBSD. It is designed to remove a large amount of the boilerplate that is often needed for modern network interface devices, allowing driver authors to focus on the specific code needed for their hardware.

There are three logical components to iflib each of which is described in its own manual page. These are:
iflibdi(9)
  Device-independent functions, used to integrate iflib into the rest of the FreeBSD networking stack.
iflibdd(9)
  Device-dependent functions, used when writing new iflib based drivers.
iflibtxrx(9)
  Device-dependent transmit and receive functions, used when writing new iflib based drivers.

Do you laugh when the waiter drops a tray full of dishes? Unix weenies do. They're the first ones to laugh at hapless users, trying to figure out an error message that doesn't have anything to do with what they just typed.
