instead of int where the variable has to hold buffer lengths,
use u_int for things like number of network interfaces which
in principle can never be negative.
These were a left over from when the private memory pools were
converted to use uma zones. The limit of UMA zones, however,
works differently. When a zone is limited to only one or two pages
than, on multi-cpu systems, processes can get stuck on the zonelimit,
because all remaining free items are in caches of other CPUs.
Also add rudimentary error handling in some places (panic) when a zone
cannot be created.
drain routines are done by swi_net, which allows for better queue control
at some future point. Packets may also be directly dispatched to a netisr
instead of queued, this may be of interest at some installations, but
currently defaults to off.

before adding/removing packets from the queue. Also, the if_obytes and
if_omcasts fields should only be manipulated under protection of the mutex.
IF_ENQUEUE, IF_PREPEND, and IF_DEQUEUE perform all necessary locking on
the queue. An IF_LOCK macro is provided, as well as the old (mutex-less)
versions of the macros in the form _IF_ENQUEUE, _IF_QFULL, for code which
needs them, but their use is discouraged.
Two new macros are introduced: IF_DRAIN() to drain a queue, and IF_HANDOFF,
which takes care of locking/enqueue, and also statistics updating/start
if necessary.
the #includes to the respective source files.
Also un-nest includes in <dev/hfa/fore_include.h>
I have run src/tools/tools/kerninclude to remove 1239 clearly
unneeded #includes reducing the total from 3524 includes to 2285.
Define the NETISR just like all the other NETISRs.
unifdef -Usun -D__FreeBSD__ we will probably never support sun4c
and if we do we can't use the solaris code anyway and I doubt
anybody will be running Fore ATM cards in then in the first place.
for possible buffer overflow problems. Replaced most sprintf()'s
with snprintf(); for others cases, added terminating NUL bytes where
appropriate, replaced constants like "16" with sizeof(), etc.
These changes include several bug fixes, but most changes are for
maintainability's sake. Any instance where it wasn't "immediately
obvious" that a buffer overflow could not occur was made safer.
