Since the recent changes to devd matching removable interfaces by media type rather than interface name, inserting my wi card didn't do anything. I would have to either manually configure it, or /etc/rc.d/netif start wi0. Anyway, it seems that in if_wi.c (at least if I am reading this correctly) we only set imr->ifm_status = IFM_AVALID if the interface is UP. Does the following patch produce some unforseen evil? It does make devd happy... --- if_wi.c.orig Mon Aug 8 20:24:14 2005 +++ if_wi.c Mon Aug 8 20:54:21 2005 _at__at_ -1259,7 +1259,7 _at__at_ u_int16_t val; int rate, len; - if (sc->wi_gone || !sc->sc_enabled) { + if (sc->wi_gone) { imr->ifm_active = IFM_IEEE80211 | IFM_NONE; imr->ifm_status = 0; return; _at__at_ -1267,6 +1267,10 _at__at_ imr->ifm_status = IFM_AVALID; imr->ifm_active = IFM_IEEE80211; + if (!sc->sc_enabled) { + imr->ifm_active |= IFM_NONE; + return; + } if (ic->ic_state == IEEE80211_S_RUN && (sc->sc_flags & WI_FLAGS_OUTRANGE) == 0) imr->ifm_status |= IFM_ACTIVE; robert.Received on Mon Aug 08 2005 - 23:17:37 UTC
