Also, add ioctls SIOCGIFADDRPREF/SIOCSIFADDRPREF to get/set preference
numbers for addresses. Make ifconfig(8) set/display preference
numbers.
To activate source-address selection policies in your kernel, add
'options IPSELSRC' to your kernel configuration.
Miscellaneous changes in support of source-address selection:
1 Factor out some common code, producing rt_replace_ifa().
2 Abbreviate a for-loop with TAILQ_FOREACH().
3 Add the predicates on IPv4 addresses IN_LINKLOCAL() and
IN_PRIVATE(), that are true for link-local unicast
(169.254/16) and RFC1918 private addresses, respectively.
Add the predicate IN_ANY_LOCAL() that is true for link-local
unicast and multicast.
4 Add IPv4-specific interface attach/detach routines,
in_domifattach and in_domifdetach, which build #ifdef
IPSELSRC.
See in_getifa(9) for a more thorough description of source-address
selection policy.
allowed. It takes three int * arguments indicating domain, type, and
protocol. Replace previous KAUTH_REQ_NETWORK_SOCKET_RAWSOCK with it (but
keep it still).
Places that used to explicitly check for privileged context now don't
need it anymore, so I replaced these with XXX comment indiacting it for
future reference.
Documented and updated examples as well.
While here, undocument converstion routines for pcred/ucred, as these are
going to be deprecated. They already are, actually, but because we exposed
them to userland so cleverly with sysctl, it may require more thinking
before actually removing them. For now, just make sure nobody relies on
these types. Or at least try...
used to manage network interfaces.
Add four sub-actions to fulfill generic needs for now, until a more
carefully defined usage of the interface is documented: get, set,
getpriv, and setpriv.
credentials on sockets, at least not anytime soon, this is a way to check
if we can "look" at a socket. Later on when (and if) we do have socket
credentials, the interface usage remains the same because we pass the
socket.
This also fixes sysctl for inet/inet6 pcblist.
happen in the TCP stack, this interface calls the specified callback to
handle the situation according to the currently selected congestion
control algorithm.
A new sysctl node was created: net.inet.tcp.congctl.{available,selected}
with obvious meanings.
The old net.inet.tcp.newreno MIB was removed.
The API is discussed in tcp_congctl(9).
In the near future, it will be possible to selected a congestion control
algorithm on a per-socket basis.

instead you have config_search_{loc,ia}. Add documentation for
config_finalize_regsiter, too. Mostly fixes PR#32106 by Gavan Fantom, as I
think the cfdriver_* and cfattach_* stuff should be documented too, but I'm
not entirely sure where yet.
