- All packets are passed to PFIL_HOOKS as they come off the wire, i.e.
fields in protocol headers in network order, etc.
- Allow for multiple hooks to be registered, using a "key" and a "dlt".
The "dlt" is a BPF data link type, indicating what type of header is
present.
- INET and INET6 register with key == AF_INET or AF_INET6, and
dlt == DLT_RAW.
- PFIL_HOOKS now take an argument for the filter hook, and mbuf **,
an ifnet *, and a direction (PFIL_IN or PFIL_OUT), thus making them
less IP (really, IP Filter) centric.
Maintain compatibility with IP Filter by adding wrapper functions for
IP Filter.
Current status:
Only OHCI chip is supported (fwohci).
ping (IPv4) works with Sony's implementation (SmartConnect) on Win98.
sometimes works but not stable.
Not implemented yet:
IRM (Isochronous Resource Manager) functionality.
Link layer fragmentation.
Topology map.
More to do:
clean ups
MCAP
charactor device part
dhcp
There is no entry in GENERIC config file yet.

Do this by invoking the ctlinput for the protocol, which is
responsible for validating the ICMP message:
* TCP -- Lookup the connection based on the address/port
pairs in the ICMP message.
* AH/ESP -- Lookup the SA based on the SPI in the ICMP message.
If validation succeeds, ctlinput is responsible for calling
icmp_mtudisc(). icmp_mtudisc() then invokes callbacks registered
by protocols (such as TCP) which want to take some sort of special
action when a path's MTU changes. For TCP, this is where we now
refresh cached routes and re-enter slow-start.
As a side-effect, this fixes the problem where TCP would not be
notified when a path's MTU changed if AH/ESP were being used.
XXX Note, this is only a fix for the IPv4 case. For the IPv6
XXX case, we need to wait for the KAME folks.

ip_output(). This flag, if set, causes ip_output() to set
DF in the IP header if the MTU in the route is not locked.
This allows a bunch of redundant code, which I was never
really all that happy about adding in the first place, to
be eliminated.
Inspired by a similar change made by provos@openbsd.org when
he integrated NetBSD's Path MTU Discovery code into OpenBSD.

This is a short-term workaround. whenever new ipfilter comes out with
proper non-IPv4 support, we should migrate to the new ipfilter.
each in_ifaddr and delete it when an address is purged.
- Don't simply try to delete a multicast address record listed in the
ia_multiaddrs. It results a dangling pointer. Let who holds a
reference to it to delete it.
- when all the interface address is removed from an interface, and there's
multicast groups still left joined, keep it in kludge table.
- when an interface address is added again, recover multicast groups from
kludge table.
this will avoid problem with dangling in_ifaddr on pcmcia card removal,
due to the link from multicast group info (in_multi).
the code is basically from sys/netinet6/in6.c (jinmei@kame).

Without this, if a v6 address is placed before a v4 address in if_addrlist,
a PRU_PURGEIF request for v6 tcp protocol purges also v4 addresses and,
as a result, if_detach fails to request PRU_PURGEIF for v4 protocols
other than tcp.
this avoids too aggressive memory usage on heavy load web server, for example.

KAME 1.26 -> 1.28
rev 1.35 of ip_nat.c checks if packets are too short.
For ICMP packets, this packet length checking double counts
the length of an IP header contained in ICMP messages.
So, unless ICMP packets are long enough (such as echo-reply),
packets are mistakingly considered too short and are dropped.
multiple addresses from same prefix, onto single interface. PR 10427.
more info:
- 4.4BSD did not check return code from in_ifinit() at all.
4.4BSD does not support multiple address from same prefix.
- past KAME change passed in{,6}_ifinit() to upwards, toward ifconfig(8).
the behavior is filed as PR 10427.
- the commit inhibits EEXIST from rtinit(), hence partially recovers old
4.4BSD behavior.
- the right thing to happen is to properly support multiple address assignment
from the same prefix. KAME tree has more extensive change, however, it needs
much more time to get stabilized (rtentry refcnt change can cause serious
issue, we really need to bake it before bring it to netbsd)
