- struct timeval time is gone
time.tv_sec -> time_second
- struct timeval mono_time is gone
mono_time.tv_sec -> time_uptime
- access to time via
{get,}{micro,nano,bin}time()
get* versions are fast but less precise
- support NTP nanokernel implementation (NTP API 4)

configured with ``options FAST_IPSEC''. Kernels with KAME IPsec or
with no IPsec should work as before.
All calls to ip_output() now always pass an additional compulsory
argument: the inpcb associated with the packet being sent,
or 0 if no inpcb is available.
Fast-ipsec tested with ICMP or UDP over ESP. TCP doesn't work, yet.
be inserted into ktrace records. The general change has been to replace
"struct proc *" with "struct lwp *" in various function prototypes, pass
the lwp through and use l_proc to get the process pointer when needed.
Bump the kernel rev up to 1.6V
malloc types into a structure, a pointer to which is passed around,
instead of an int constant. Allow the limit to be adjusted when the
malloc type is defined, or with a function call, as suggested by
Jonathan Stone.
optimization made last year. should solve PR 17867 and 10195.
IP_HDRINCL behavior of raw ip socket is kept unchanged. we may want to
provide IP_HDRINCL variant that does not swap endian.
the link level name for the interface (ifp->if_sadl) is allocated
before ifp->if_addrlen is initialized, which could lead to allocating
too little space for the link level address.
Do this by splitting allocation of the link level name out of
if_attach() and into if_alloc_sadl(), which is normally called
by functions like ether_ifattach(). Network interfaces which
don't have a link-specific attach routine must call if_alloc_sadl()
themselves (example: gif).
Link level names are freed by if_free_sadl(), which can be called
from e.g. ether_ifdetach(). Drivers never need call if_free_sadl()
themselves as if_detach() will do it if it is not already done.
While here, add the ability to pass an AF_LINK address to
SIOCSIFADDR in ether_ioctl() (this is what caused me to notice
the problem that the above fixes).
