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.
- in in6_ifattach_getifid(), we can grab interface id source iff the source
is universally (worldwide) unique. ARCnet hardware address is of 8bit and
does not satisfy the condition.
(in6_ifattach_getifid() is for getting interface id usable for pseudo
interfaces like gif*)
- xx_to_eui64() should return EUI64 format, not IPv6 interface id format.
this may seem awkward so I wish to clean these things up.
- in nd6.c, change if clause into case clause to allow future addition
of IFT_xxx easier.
This situation happens on severe memory shortage. We may need more
improvements here and there.
- Grab IEEE802 address from IFT_ETHER card, even if the card is
inserted after bootup time. Is there any other card that can be
inserted afterwards? pcmcia fddi card? :-P
- RFC2373 u bit handling suggests that we SHOULD NOT copy interface id from
ethernet card to pseudo interface, when ethernet card has IEEE802/EUI64
with u bit != 0 (this means that IEEE802/EUI64 is not universally unique).
Do not use such address as, for example, interface id for gif interface.
(I have such an ethernet card myself)
This may change interface id for your gif interface. be careful upgrading
rc files.
(sync with recent KAME)
- do not perform IPv6 initialization for faith* interface, as they become
mistakingly IFF_UP. we are wondering if we should nuke in6_ifattach_p2p().
(sync with recent kame)
is not the expected one.
I see PRC_REDIRECT_HOST with sa->sa_family == AF_UNIX coming to
{tcp,udp}_ctlinput() when I use dhclient, and I feel like adding
more sanity checks, without logging - if we log it it is too noisy.
once for ipv6. This patch makes the ipv6 case pass NULLs in for fast
and slow timeouts iff defined(INET) and passes in the right function
if !defined(INET).

addressed, the culprit being the lack of a namespace definition for an IPv6-
extended <netinet/in.h> in XNS5.2 D2.0; I'll try to work something out and
submit it to the review WG.
