Retire NDIS. It appears that it has never worked, after 13 years it was
still marked as "experimental", and nowadays it may be one more obstacle
to MPification of the network stack.
Discussed on tech-net@.

-.Dt NDIS 4 i386
-.Os
-.Sh NAME
-.Nm ndis
-.Nd NDIS miniport driver wrapper
-.Sh SYNOPSIS
-.Cd "ndis* at pci? dev ? function ?"
-.Sh DESCRIPTION
-The
-.Nm
-wrapper is designed to allow binary
-.Tn Windows\[rg]
-NDIS miniport
-network drivers to be used with
-.Nx .
-The
-.Nm
-driver is provided in source code form
-.Pq Pa sys/dev/if_ndis
-and must be combined with the
-.Tn Windows\[rg]
-driver binary supplied with your network adapter.
-The
-.Nm
-driver uses the
-.\".Xr ndisapi 9
-ndisapi
-kernel subsystem to relocate and link the
-.Tn Windows\[rg]
-binary so
-that it can be used in conjunction with native code.
-The
-.\".Xr ndisapi 9
-ndisapi
-subsystem provides an interface between the NDIS API and the
-.Nx
-networking infrastructure.
-The
-.Tn Windows\[rg]
-driver is essentially
-fooled into thinking it is running on
-.Tn Windows\[rg] .
-Note that this
-means the
-.Nm
-driver is only useful on x86 machines.
-.Pp
-To build a functional driver, the user must have a copy of the
-driver distribution media for his or her card.
-From this distribution,
-the user must extract two files: the
-.Pa .SYS
-file containing the driver
-binary code, and its companion
-.Pa .INF
-file, which contains the
-definitions for driver-specific registry keys and other installation
-data such as device identifiers.
-These two files are converted
-into a
-.Pa ndis_driver_data.h
-file using the
-.Xr ndiscvt 8
-utility.
-The resulting file contains a binary image of the driver plus
-registry key data.
-The
-.Pa ndis_driver_data.h
-is included in several files located in
-.Pa sys/dev/if_ndis
-so it is needed to compile an NDIS kernel.
-When the
-.Nm
-driver is loaded, it will create
-.Xr sysctl 3
-nodes for each registry key extracted from the
-.Pa .INF
-file.
-.Pp
-The
-.Nm
-wrapper is designed to support mainly Ethernet and wireless
-network devices/drivers with PCI bus attachments.
-It can
-support many different media types and speeds.
-.Pp
-One limitation
-however, is that there is no consistent way to learn if an
-Ethernet device is operating in full or half duplex mode.
-The NDIS API allows for a generic means for determining link
-state and speed, but not the duplex setting.
-There may be
-driver-specific registry keys to control the media setting
-which can be configured via the
-.Xr sysctl 8
-command.
-.Sh EXAMPLES
-Assuming you have obtained the appropriate
-.Pa .INF
-and
-.Pa .SYS
-files for your device, the
-.Pa ndis_driver_data.h
-file can be built as follows:
-.Bd -literal -offset indent
-$ ndiscvt -i your_card.INF -s your_card.SYS -o ndis_driver_data.h
-.Ed
-.Pp
-Next uncomment the following lines from
-.Pa sys/arch/i386/conf/GENERIC
-.Bd -literal -offset indent
-$ cd /usr/src/sys/arch/i386/conf
-$ cp GENERIC NDIS
-$ vi NDIS
- .
- .
- .
-options COMPAT_NDIS # NDIS network driver
- .
- .
- .
-ndis* at pci? dev ? function ? # Experimental - NDIS Network Driver
-.Ed
-.Pp
-Configure your kernel, then copy the
-.Pa ndis_driver_data.h
-file into the kernel build directory before compiling the kernel:
-.Bd -literal -offset indent
-$ cd src/sys/arch/i386/conf
-$ config NDIS
-$ cd ../compile/NDIS
-$ cp /path/to/ndis_driver_data.h .
-$ make depend && make
-$ su
-$ mv /netbsd /onetbsd
-$ cp netbsd /netbsd
-$ reboot
-.Ed
-.Pp
-The ndis0 device should be detected at boot:
-.Bd -literal -offset indent
-Matching vendor: 14e4, product: 4324, name: Dell TrueMobile 1400 Dual Band WLAN Mini-PCI Card
-ndis0 at pci2 dev 3 function 0
-.Ed
-.Pp
-The device can then be configured with
-.Xr ifconfig 8 :
-.Pp
-.Bd -literal -offset indent
-ndis0: flags=8843<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> mtu 1500
- ssid WWUwireless
- powersave on (100ms sleep)
- chan 6
- address: 00:90:4b:69:94:f0
- media: IEEE802.11 autoselect
- status: no network
- inet 140.160.129.226 netmask 0xfffffc00 broadcast 140.160.131.255
- inet6 fe80::290:4bff:fe69:94f0%ndis0 prefixlen 64 scopeid 0x3
-.Ed
-.Pp
-If the
-.Nm
-driver creates any sysctl nodes, they can be viewed and altered with
-.Xr sysctl 8 :
-.Bd -literal -offset indent
-$ sysctl ndis0
- .
- .
- .
-ndis0.ndis_10280001 = Dell TrueMobile 1300 WLAN Mini-PCI Card
-ndis0.ndis_Environment = 1
-ndis0.ndis_NdisVersion = 0x00050001
-ndis0.ndis_BusType = 5
- .
- .
- .
-.Ed
-.Sh DIAGNOSTICS
-.Bl -diag
-.It "ndis%d: watchdog timeout"
-A packet was queued for transmission and a transmit command was
-issued, however the device failed to acknowledge the transmission
-before a timeout expired.
