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 is not supposed to work.
logging fix: add "\n" to some of log() in in6_prefix.c.
improve in6_ifdetach(). now almost all structure depend on ifnet
will be cleared up.
possible loose ends:
- cached route_in6 in static varaiables needs to be cleared as well
- there are ifaddr manipulation without reference counting,
which should be fixed
we still see panics after card removal, though... not sure what is left.
(sync with kame)
due to massive changes in KAME side.
- IPv6 output goes through nd6_output
- faith can capture IPv4 packets as well - you can run IPv4-to-IPv6 translator
using heavily modified DNS servers
- per-interface statistics (required for IPv6 MIB)
- interface autoconfig is revisited
- udp input handling has a big change for mapped address support.
- introduce in4_cksum() for non-overwriting checksumming
- introduce m_pulldown()
- neighbor discovery cleanups/improvements
- netinet/in.h strictly conforms to RFC2553 (no extra defs visible to userland)
- IFA_STATS is fixed a bit (not tested)
- and more more more.
TODO:
- cleanup os-independency #ifdef
- avoid rcvif dual use (for IPsec) to help ifdetach
(sorry for jumbo commit, I can't separate this any more...)
just for reference purposes.
This commit includes 1.4 -> 1.4.1 sync for kame branch.
The branch does not compile at all (due to the lack of ALTQ and some other
source code). Please do not try to modify the branch, this is just for
referenre purposes.
synchronization to latest KAME will take place on HEAD branch soon.
