How to rollback a driver?
Hi, I have had problems with the Atheros driver under FreeBSD 7-STABLE (specifically, kernel panics on even trivial network load); under 7.0-RELEASE, I had none. I filed a PR, but I'm not sure how quickly we can solve the issue. Other than this driver issue, I'd prefer to use the STABLE branch. Is it possible to swap out the current ath driver for an older one? Could I still build it in the kernel? Besides this issue, everything seems to work fine. Thanks!

Upcoming ABI Breakage in RELENG_7
Normally the FreeBSD Project tries very hard to avoid ABI breakage in "Stable Branches". However occasionally the fix for a bug can not be implemented without ABI breakage, and it is decided that the fix warrants the impact of the ABI breakage. We have one of those situations coming along for RELENG_7 (what will become FreeBSD 7.1). The ABI breakage should only impact kernel modules that are not part of the baseline system (those will be patched by the MFC) which deal with advisory locks. As such the impact should not cause many people problems. The work that will be MFCed fixes issues with filesystem advisory locks, and moves the advisory locks list from filesystem-private data structures into the vnode structure. The MFC will be done by Kostantin Belousov some time this coming Friday (August 1st, 2008) if you have concerns and want to watch for it.
