Maintainer: Rui Paulo <rpaulo@NetBSD.org>
Scope: src/sys
Notes:
Notes: No longer active due to the lack of time. If you plan to
continue this branch, sys/netinet/in_pcb.h already contains
the proposed structure layout (which was roughly discussed
in the tech-net mailing list).
I also defined INP_*() macros to mimicate FreeBSD's inpcb
locking style, but currently they do nothing and are not
yet called at the correct places (needs discussion about
kernel fine-grained locking).
To continue this branch, one needs to read all the relevant
inpcb/in6pcb source files and change the function names,
structure names, structure fileds according to the new
layout (in6pcb is gone).
Don't try to build a kernel from this branch because it won't
work. The missing pieces required to do a complete build
were not committed because they were incomplete and generated
panics.
You shouldn't need to worry about KAME syncs because
they did most of them by now.
After the work is done, you are required to test the branch
(before the merge to -current) with an interop IPv6 test.
