RFC2553/2292-compliant header file path, now the following headers are
forbidden:
netinet6/ip6.h
netinet6/icmp6.h
netinet6/in6.h
if you want netinet6/{ip6,icmp6}.h, use netinet/{ip6,icmp6}.h.
if you want netinet6/in6.h, you just need to include netinet/in.h.
it pulls it in.
(we may need to integrate them into netinet/in.h, but for cross-BSD code
sharing i'd like to keep it like this for now)
(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.
code, from netbsd-current repository.
#ifdef'ed version is always available from ftp.kame.net.
XXX please do not make too many diff-unfriendly changes, we'll need to take
bunch of diffs on upgrade...
this allows you to disable/enable ICMPv6 node information query/reply
processing (which tells remote end the gethostname(3) setting, interface
addresses on the node, and some other things - documented in
draft-ietf-ipngwg-icmp-name-lookup* or something alike).
to test it, try ping6 -w ::1 with nodeinfo=0 and nodeinfo=1.
(sync with kame change)
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...)
RTM_IFINFO is now 0xf, 0xe is RTM_OIFINFO which returns the old (if_msghdr14)
struct with 32bit counters (binary compat, conditioned on COMPAT_14).
Same for sysctl: node 3 is renamed NET_RT_OIFLIST, NET_RT_IFLIST is now node 4.
Change rt_msg1() to add an mbuf to the mbuf chain instead of just panic()
when the message is larger than MHLEN.
