87  * For each "interface" (NIC, host stack, PIPE, VALE switch port) bound to
88  * a file descriptor, the mmap()ed region contains a (logically readonly)
89  * struct netmap_if pointing to struct netmap_ring's.
90  *
91  * There is one netmap_ring per physical NIC ring, plus one tx/rx ring
92  * pair attached to the host stack (this pair is unused for non-NIC ports).
93  *
94  * All physical/host stack ports share the same memory region,
95  * so that zero-copy can be implemented between them.
96  * VALE switch ports instead have separate memory regions.
97  *
98  * The netmap_ring is the userspace-visible replica of the NIC ring.
99  * Each slot has the index of a buffer (MTU-sized and residing in the
100  * mmapped region), its length and some flags. An extra 64-bit pointer
101  * is provided for user-supplied buffers in the tx path.
102  *
103  * In user space, the buffer address is computed as
104  *	(char *)ring + buf_ofs + index * NETMAP_BUF_SIZE
105  *
106  * Added in NETMAP_API 11:
107  *
108  * + NIOCREGIF can request the allocation of extra spare buffers from
109  *   the same memory pool. The desired number of buffers must be in
110  *   nr_arg3. The ioctl may return fewer buffers, depending on memory
111  *   availability. nr_arg3 will return the actual value, and, once
112  *   mapped, nifp->ni_bufs_head will be the index of the first buffer.
113  *
114  *   The buffers are linked to each other using the first uint32_t
115  *   as the index. On close, ni_bufs_head must point to the list of
116  *   buffers to be released.
117  *
118  * + NIOCREGIF can request space for extra rings (and buffers)
119  *   allocated in the same memory space. The number of extra rings
120  *   is in nr_arg1, and is advisory. This is a no-op on NICs where
121  *   the size of the memory space is fixed.
122  *
123  * + NIOCREGIF can attach to PIPE rings sharing the same memory
124  *   space with a parent device. The ifname indicates the parent device,
125  *   which must already exist. Flags in nr_flags indicate if we want to
126  *   bind the master or slave side, the index (from nr_ringid)
127  *   is just a cookie and does not need to be sequential.
128  *
129  * + NIOCREGIF can also attach to 'monitor' rings that replicate
130  *   the content of specific rings, also from the same memory space.
131  *
132  *   Extra flags in nr_flags support the above functions.
133  *   Application libraries may use the following naming scheme:
134  *	netmap:foo			all NIC ring pairs
135  *	netmap:foo^			only host ring pair
136  *	netmap:foo+			all NIC ring + host ring pairs
137  *	netmap:foo-k			the k-th NIC ring pair
138  *	netmap:foo{k			PIPE ring pair k, master side
139  *	netmap:foo}k			PIPE ring pair k, slave side
140  *
141  * Some notes about host rings:
142  *
143  * + The RX host ring is used to store those packets that the host network
144  *   stack is trying to transmit through a NIC queue, but only if that queue
145  *   is currently in netmap mode. Netmap will not intercept host stack mbufs
146  *   designated to NIC queues that are not in netmap mode. As a consequence,
147  *   registering a netmap port with netmap:foo^ is not enough to intercept
148  *   mbufs in the RX host ring; the netmap port should be registered with
149  *   netmap:foo*, or another registration should be done to open at least a
150  *   NIC TX queue in netmap mode.
151  *
152  * + Netmap is not currently able to deal with intercepted trasmit mbufs which
153  *   require offloadings like TSO, UFO, checksumming offloadings, etc. It is
154  *   responsibility of the user to disable those offloadings (e.g. using
155  *   ifconfig on FreeBSD or ethtool -K on Linux) for an interface that is being
156  *   used in netmap mode. If the offloadings are not disabled, GSO and/or
157  *   unchecksummed packets may be dropped immediately or end up in the host RX
158  *   ring, and will be dropped as soon as the packet reaches another netmap
159  *   adapter.
