4  * Structures defining a network interface, providing a packet
5  * transport mechanism (ala level 0 of the PUP protocols).
6  *
7  * Each interface accepts output datagrams of a specified maximum
8  * length, and provides higher level routines with input datagrams
9  * received from its medium.
10  *
11  * Output occurs when the routine if_output is called, with three parameters:
12  *	(*ifp->if_output)(ifp, m, pf)
13  * Here m is the mbuf chain to be sent and pf is the protocol family
14  * of the internetwork datagram format in which the data is wrapped
15  * (e.g. PF_PUP or PF_INET).  The output routine encapsulates the
16  * supplied datagram if necessary, and then transmits it on its medium.
17  *
18  * On input, each interface unwraps the data received by it, and either
19  * places it on the input queue of a internetwork datagram routine
20  * and posts the associated software interrupt, or passes the datagram to a raw
21  * packet input routine.
22  *
23  * Routines exist for locating interfaces by their internet addresses
24  * or for locating a interface on a certain network, as well as more general
25  * routing and gateway routines maintaining information used to locate
26  * interfaces.  These routines live in the files if.c and ip_ggp.c.
