/*
* The Link-Level Socket Interface
*

/*
* A Link-Level Sockaddr may specify the interface in one of two
* ways: either by means of a system-provided index number (computed
* anew and possibly differently on every reboot), or by a human-readable
* string such as "il0" (for managerial convenience).
*
* Census taking actions, such as something akin to SIOCGCONF would return
* both the index and the human name.
*
* High volume transactions (such as giving a link-level ``from'' address
* in a recvfrom or recvmsg call) may be likely only to provide the indexed
* form, (which requires fewer copy operations and less space).
*
* The form and interpretation of the link-level address is purely a matter
* of convention between the device driver and its consumers; however, it is
* expected that all drivers for an interface of a given if_type will agree.
