.Sh DATA STRUCTURES
The \fIif_ctx_t\fP Structure is the device independent data structure that contains statistics and identifying information used to transmit and receive data packets. The interface is associated with an array of queues assigned sequentially. Each queu has its own transmit (iflib_txq_t) and receive (iflib_rxq_t) queue. The transmit queue is used to hold packets while the interface is in the process of sending another. The receive queue is used to receive packets that are awaiting processing.

.Sh FUNCTIONS
 The above named functions are found exclusively in iflib. They are independent of the underlying hardware type or configuration.
.Ss Device Independent Functions
.Bl -ohang -offset indent
.It Fn iflib_device_attach
Function initiates a device registration with the iflib framework. It calls the iflib_register function, which is responsible for allocating and initializing the \fIif_ctx_t\fP structure.
.It Fn iflib_device_detach
Shutdown and detach the device. Unregister vlan events, drain any dependent tasks, and release irq, pci, and msix memory.
.It Fn iflib_device_suspend
Suspend a device by calling the device dependent suspend function and bus_generic_suspend.
.It Fn iflib_device_resume
Resume a device by calling the device dependent resume function, the iflib_init_locked function, and bus_generic_resume.
.It Fn iflib_device_register
Register a device with the iflib framework. Allocate and initialize the \fIif_ctx_t\fP structure. Setup and initialize the MSI or MSI/X interrupt queues if necessary. Allocate memory for queues and qset structure setup.
.It Fn iflib_device_irq_alloc
Allocate an interrupt resource for a given rid value with an associated filter and handler function.
.It Fn iflib_device_irq_alloc_generic
Performs the same function as iflib_device_irq_alloc along with the additional functionality of adding a taskgroup. The data fields and callback function are determined by the type of interrupt, such as IFLIB_INTR_TX, IFLIB_INTR_RX, and IFLIB_INTR_ADMIN.
.It Fn iflib_led_create
Calls led_create to initialize the ctx->ifc_led_dev field
.It Fn iflib_tx_intr_deferred
Calls GROUPTASK_ENQUEUE to enqueue the transfer queues ift_task.
.It Fn iflib_rx_intr_deferred
Calls GROUPTASK_ENQUEUE to enqueue the receive queues ifr_task.
.It Fn iflib_link_intr_deferred
Calls GROUPTASK_ENQUEUE to enqueue the link task
.It Fn iflib_link_state_change
Change the interface link status to either LINK_STATE_UP or LINK_STATE_DOWN as specified by the second argument to the function.
\fBInterface Link States\fP
The following link states are currently defined:

       LINK_STATE_UP       The link is up.
       LINK_STATE_DOWN     The link is down.
.It Fn iflib_add_int_delay_sysctl
Modifies settings to user defined values for a given set of variables.
