 == Issues and To Do
-* Sebastian Huber: mentioned some simple test code which would verify
-  that the BSD code/and or USB stack was initialized.  This has been
-  sent to Joel Sherrill and is pending merger.
-
 * Sebastian Huber and Joel Sherrill discussed the need for a a basic USB
   functionality test that is known to work on qemu pc.
 
 * Adapt generic IRQ PIC interface code to Simple Vectored Interrupt Model
   so that those architectures can use new TCP/IP and USB code. 
 
+* freebsd-userspace/rtems/include/sys/syslog.h is a copy from the old
+  RTEMS TCP/IP stack. For some reason, the __printflike markers do not
+  compile in this environment. We may want to use the FreeBSD syslog.h
+  and get this addressed.
+
 * in_cksum implementations for architectures not supported by FreeBSD.
   This will require figuring out where to put implementations that do
   not originate from FreeBSD and are populated via the script.
 
-* FreeBSD generic in_cksum implementation is missing in_cksum_split so
-  currently cannot be used.
-
-* How does one initialize the TCP/IP stack?
-
 * linker section issues: I have undefined symbols for
   `_bsd__start_set_sysinit_set` and `_bsd__stop_set_sysinit_set`.
   Is this the only type of new section magic?  What about the old sysctl_set?

+- PCI configuration probe does not appear to happen to determine if a

 - The ISA drivers require more BSD infrastructure to be addressed. This was 
 outside the scope of the initial porting effort.
