as necessary:
* Implement a new mbuf utility routine, m_copyup(), is is like
m_pullup(), except that it always prepends and copies, rather
than only doing so if the desired length is larger than m->m_len.
m_copyup() also allows an offset into the destination mbuf, which
allows space for packet headers, in the forwarding case.
* Add *_HDR_ALIGNED_P() macros for IP, IPv6, ICMP, and IGMP. These
macros expand to 1 if __NO_STRICT_ALIGNMENT is defined, so that
architectures which do not have strict alignment constraints don't
pay for the test or visit the new align-if-needed path.
* Use the new macros to check if a header needs to be aligned, or to
assert that it already is, as appropriate.
Note: This code is still somewhat experimental. However, the new
code path won't be visited if individual device drivers continue
to guarantee that packets are delivered to layer 3 already properly
aligned (which are rules that are already in use).
benefit currently). Rework tcp_reass code to optimize the 4 most likely causes
of out-of-order packets: first OoO pkt, next OoO pkt in seq, OoO pkt is part
of new chuck of OoO packets, and the OoO pkt fills the first hole. Add evcnts
to instrument tcp_reass (enabled by the options TCP_REASS_COUNTERS). This is
part 1/2 of tcp_reass changes.
by interface index. if the interface address specified is in 0.0.0.0/8
it will be considered as interface index in network byteorder.
getsockopt(IP_MULTICAST_IF) preserves old behavior if
setsockopt(IP_MULTICAST_IF) was done with interface address, and
returns interface index if setsockopt(IP_MULTICAST_IF) was done with
interface index (again using the form in 0.0.0.0/8).
Suggested by Dave Thaler, based on RIPv2 MIB spec (RFC1724 section 3.3).

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.
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.
(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.
if_fddisubr.c to fastpath IP forwarding. If ip_forward successfully
forwards a packet, it will create a cache (ipflow) entry. ether_input
and fddi_input will first call ipflow_fastforward with the received
packet and if the packet passes enough tests, it will be forwarded (the
ttl is decremented and the cksum is adjusted incrementally).
* support sysctl net.inet.ip.anonportmin (lowest ephemeral port)
and net.inet.ip.anonportmax (highest ephemeral port).
these can't be set to >65535, < IPPORT_RESERVED (unless IPNOPRIVPORTS
is defined), and anonportmin has to be < anonportmax.
* use a cleaner way of only cycling through the available set once;
this will be useful for when a random allocation scheme is used
* define IPPORT_ANON{MIN,MAX} instead of IPPORT_USER{LOW,HIGH}
use of mbuf external storage and increasing performance (by eliminating
an m_pullup() for clusters in the IP reassembly code).

and #3480, with ever-so-slight integration changes by me.
interface using a sockaddr_dl in a control mbuf.
Implement SO_TIMESTAMP for IP datagrams.
Move packet information option processing into a generic function
so that they work with multicast UDP and raw IP as well as unicast UDP.

(like the alpha). Biggest problem: IP headers were overlayed with
structure which included pointers, and which therefore didn't overlay
properly on 64-bit machines. Solution: instead of threading pointers
through IP header overlays, add a "queue element" structure to do
the threading, and point it at the ip headers.
* Convert several data structures to use queue.h.
* Split in_pcbnotify() into two parts; one for notifying a specific PCB, and
one for notifying all PCBs for a particular foreign address.
