normal operation (/var can get filled up by flodding bogus packets).
sysctl net.inet6.icmp6.nd6_debug will turn on diagnostic messages.
(#define ND6_DEBUG will turn it on by default)
improve stats in ND6 code.
lots of synchronziation with kame (including comments and cometic ones).
mandatory for IPv6 (so we can't just validate by using connected pcb - we need
to allow traffic from unconnected pcb to do pmtud).
- if the traffic is validated by xx_ctlinput, allow up to "hiwat" pmtud
route entries.
- if the traffic was not validated by xx_ctlinput, allow up to "lowat" pmtud
route entries (there's upper limit, so bad guys cannot blow up our routing
table).
sync with kame
XXX need to think again about default hiwat/lowat value.
XXX victim selection to help starvation case
TODO: udp6, and sendto consideration. as pmtud is mandatory for IPv6,
it is rather important for us to support those cases.
TODO: more testing
TODO: kame sync
- add protection mechanism against ND cache corruption due to bad NUD hints.
- more stats
- icmp6 pps limitation. TOOD: should implement ppsratecheck(9).
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.
(netinet6/{ip6,icmp6}.h is non-standard path - these files should go away)
it was not possible to use cvsmove in this case.
when you try to look at history, chase it toward netinet6/{ip6,icmp6}.h.
