NAME
iflib —
Network Interface Driver Framework
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
iflibinto the rest of the FreeBSD networking stack. - iflibdd(9)
- Device-dependent functions, used when writing new
iflibbased drivers. - iflibtxrx(9)
- Device-dependent transmit and receive functions, used when writing new
iflibbased drivers.
