state. Apparently it happens when both devices try to disconnect RFCOMM
multiplexor channel at the same time.
The scenario is as follows:
- local device initiates RFCOMM connection to the remote device. This
creates both RFCOMM multiplexor channel and data channel;
- remote device terminates RFCOMM data channel (inactivity timeout);
- local device acknowledges RFCOMM data channel termination. Because
there is no more active data channels and local device has initiated
connection it terminates RFCOMM multiplexor channel;
- remote device does not acknowledges RFCOMM multiplexor channel
termination. Instead it sends its own request to terminate RFCOMM
multiplexor channel. Even though local device acknowledges RFCOMM
multiplexor channel termination the remote device still keeps
L2CAP connection open.
Because of hanging RFCOMM multiplexor channel subsequent RFCOMM
connections between local and remote devices will fail.

there so there are no ABI changes);
+ replace 5 redefinitions of the IPF2AC macro with one in if_arp.h
Eventually (but before freezing the ABI) we need to get rid of
struct arpcom (initially with the help of some smart #defines
to avoid having to touch each and every driver, see below).
Apart from the struct ifnet, struct arpcom now only stores a copy
of the MAC address (ac_enaddr, but we already have another copy in
the struct ifnet -- if_addrhead), and a netgraph-specific field
which is _always_ accessed through the ifp, so it might well go
into the struct ifnet too (where, besides, there is already an entry
for AF_NETGRAPH data...)
Too bad ac_enaddr is widely referenced by all drivers. But
this can be fixed as follows:
#define ac_enaddr ac_if.the_original_ac_enaddr_in_struct_ifnet
(note that the right hand side would likely be a pointer rather than
the base address of an array.)
of an interface. No functional change.
On passing, comment an useless invocation of TAILQ_INIT(&ifp->if_addrhead)
which could probably be removed in the interest of clarity.

other ATM) connections where bridged ethernet is used, PPPoE being a prime
example.

Rename the "canwait" field to "mflags" and pass M_WAITOK and M_NOWAIT
in from the caller context rather than "1" or "0".
Correct mflags pass into mac_init_socket() from previous commit to not
include M_ZERO.

Flip sense of D_NOGIANT flag to D_NEEDGIANT, this involves removing

problem here still to be solved: the sockaddr_hci has still a 16 byte
field for the node name. The code currently does not correctly use the
length field in the sockaddr to handle the address length, so
node names get truncated to 15 characters when put into a sockaddr_hci.
introducing a START_NOW command. This command does not send
and GET_IFINDEX message downstream (to wait for the response from
the ETHERNET node), but directly starts the sending process. This allows
one to generate traffic as input for any hook on any node.
