From d7587220d52014aff82b8c396d60b6eb5cbbf77c Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Robert Watson Date: Sat, 23 Nov 2002 21:54:32 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] Add a new section for specific areas requiring additional testing prior to the release, and populate with two items: - Potential problems with if_ie, if_le, and if_wl from Sam Leffler's API changes. He'd like to see immediate testing and feedback regarding these drivers. - Additional testing for the vlan code, which was changed in a variety of ways late in the development cycle. Additional submissions welcome. --- en/releases/5.0R/todo.sgml | 34 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++- 1 file changed, 33 insertions(+), 1 deletion(-) diff --git a/en/releases/5.0R/todo.sgml b/en/releases/5.0R/todo.sgml index 19268a4ebf..bc6bf6a7ef 100644 --- a/en/releases/5.0R/todo.sgml +++ b/en/releases/5.0R/todo.sgml @@ -1,7 +1,7 @@ - + %includes; ]> @@ -320,6 +320,38 @@ Netware servers). + + +

IssueStatusResponsibleDescription
if_ie, if_le, if_wl network device drivers--sam@FreeBSD.orgChanges made to the ethernet driver interfaces required sweeping + API changes across all ethernet device drivers. While these + changes are largely mechanical, they were not tested for three less + frequently used interface drivers: if_ie, if_le, and if_wl. They + each require testing (and probably fixing) prior to 5.0-RELEASE. + If you have access to devices that use these drivers, please perform + local testing and provide feedback to Sam Leffler.
vlan testing--sam@FreeBSD.orgChanges to the network device driver interfaces and introduction + of m_tags has changed the way in which vlans are implemented in + 5.0. These changes require additional testing. If you make use + if the vlan behavior in local configurations, please test them + with recent 5.0 snapshots and provide feedback to Sam Leffler.
