timeout()/untimeout() API:
- Clients supply callout handle storage, thus eliminating problems of
resource allocation.
- Insertion and removal of callouts is constant time, important as
this facility is used quite a lot in the kernel.
The old timeout()/untimeout() API has been removed from the kernel.
it was a bit too strong, and forbids multiple addresses from
same prefix to be assigned.
now the behavior is the same as previous - memory leak on interface address
addition failure.

Fix from: ho@crt.se
itojun was notified from: theo
between protocol handlers.
ipsec socket pointers, ipsec decryption/auth information, tunnel
decapsulation information are in my mind - there can be several other usage.
at this moment, we use this for ipsec socket pointer passing. this will
avoid reuse of m->m_pkthdr.rcvif in ipsec code.
due to the change, MHLEN will be decreased by sizeof(void *) - for example,
for i386, MHLEN was 100 bytes, but is now 96 bytes.
we may want to increase MSIZE from 128 to 256 for some of our architectures.
take caution if you use it for keeping some data item for long period
of time - use extra caution on M_PREPEND() or m_adj(), as they may result
in loss of m->m_pkthdr.aux pointer (and mbuf leak).
this will bump kernel version.
(as discussed in tech-net, tested in kame tree)
draft-ietf-ipngwg-icmp-name-lookups-04.txt.
There are certain bitfield change in 04 draft to 05 draft, which makes
04 "ping6 -a" and 05 "ping6 -a" not interoperable. sigh.
- remove net.inet6.ip6.nd6_proxyall. introduce proxy NDP code works
just like "arp -s".
- revise source address selection.
be more careful about use of yet-to-be-valid addresses as source.
- as router, transmit ICMP6_DST_UNREACH_BEYONDSCOPE against out-of-scope
packet forwarding attempt.
- path MTU discovery takes care of routing header properly.
- be more strict about mbuf chain parsing.
pfil information, instead, struct protosw now contains a structure
which caontains list heads, etc. The per-protosw pfil struct is passed
to pfil_hook_get(), along with an in/out flag to get the head of the
relevant filter list. This has been done for only IPv4 and IPv6, at
present, with these patches only enabling filtering for IPPROTO_IP and
IPPROTO_IPV6, although it is possible to have tcp/udp, etc, dedicated
filters now also. The ipfilter code has been updated to only filter
IPv4 packets - next major release of ipfilter is required for ipv6.
- there's no match against addresses on IFF_UP interface,
send icmp unreach if I'm router. drop it if I'm host.
Revised version of PR: 9387 from nrt@iij.ad.jp. Discussed with thorpej+nrt.
Note, we're reusing the previously unused slot for "MTU discovery" (which
was moved to the "net.inet.ip" branch of the sysctl tree quite some time
ago).
- Filter out multicast destinations explicitly for every incoming packet,
not just SYNs. Previously, non-SYN multicast destination would be
filtered out as a side effect of PCB lookup. Remove now redundant
similar checks in the dropwithreset case and in syn_cache_add().
- Defer the TCP checksum until we know that we want to process the
packet (i.e. have a non-CLOSED connection or a listen socket).
increasing both of them will result in negative number on udp
"delivered" stat on netstat(8), since netstat computes number of delivered
packet by subtracting them from number of inbound packets.
- a packet is delivered to an address X,
- and the address X is configured on my !IFF_UP interface
- and ipforwarding=1

RFC2553/2292-compliant header file path, now the following headers are
forbidden:
netinet6/ip6.h
netinet6/icmp6.h
netinet6/in6.h
if you want netinet6/{ip6,icmp6}.h, use netinet/{ip6,icmp6}.h.
if you want netinet6/in6.h, you just need to include netinet/in.h.
it pulls it in.
(we may need to integrate them into netinet/in.h, but for cross-BSD code
sharing i'd like to keep it like this for now)
