(Sorry for a big commit, I can't separate this into several pieces...)
Pls check sys/netinet6/TODO and sys/netinet6/IMPLEMENTATION for details.
- sys/kern: do not assume single mbuf, accept chained mbuf on passing
data from userland to kernel (or other way round).
- "midway" ATM card: ATM PVC pseudo device support, like those done in ALTQ
package (ftp://ftp.csl.sony.co.jp/pub/kjc/).
- sys/netinet/tcp*: IPv4/v6 dual stack tcp support.
- sys/netinet/{ip6,icmp6}.h, sys/net/pfkeyv2.h: IETF document assumes those
file to be there so we patch it up.
- sys/netinet: IPsec additions are here and there.
- sys/netinet6/*: most of IPv6 code sits here.
- sys/netkey: IPsec key management code
- dev/pci/pcidevs: regen
In my understanding no code here is subject to export control so it
should be safe.
and "pass-filter" and "inbound" and "outbound" qualifiers in the filter
expression, use new "active-filter-in", "active-filter-out", "pass-filter-in",
and "pass-filter-out" without these qualifiers.
This is necessary due to the horrible, awful way "inbound" and "outbound"
were specified for the filter programs when a packet was passed through them.
Basically, the "address" byte in the serial PPP header was overwritten with
a value to indicate the direction. However, the "address" byte doesn't even
exist on PPP headers for all other PPP encaps! So, this old method worked
only for serial encaps, and corrupted packets for all others (PPPoE, ATM, etc.)
to serial encap, change its data link type to DLT_PPP_SERIAL.
* Work around some serious bogosity in the filtering code which utterly
breaks proper functioning of BPF. The PPP code and pppd(8) WILL be changed
to fix this.
This allows pppoutput to be called from splimp (e.g., when ipflow is
in use.) without requiring pppasyncstart to run at splimp.
This is believed to fix PR5624.
device and a printable "external name" (name + unit number), thus eliminating
if_name and if_unit. Updated interface to (*if_watchdog)() and (*if_reset)()
to take a struct ifnet *, rather than a unit number.
trivial multicast support, and support for xon/xoff output flow
control to the PPP subsystem. Fixed several bugs, including making
the accumulation and resetting of statistics more consistent. State
for the VJ compressor is now dynamically allocated.
improvements. The PPP kernel code is now split into if_ppp.c,
containing generic PPP support, and ppp_tty.c, which specifically
supports PPP on async tty devices (as a line discipline). This is
so that other devices can be supported without making them look
like ttys.
a character and it doesn't already have enough space allocated.
It still needs cluster mbufs to be able to decompress VJ-compressed
packets. It drops packets if it can't allocate mbufs rather than
taking the interface down.
