and net.bpf.peers sysctls respectively.
A new structure was added to describe the external (user viewable)
representation of a BPF file; a new entry was added to the bpf_d
structure to store the PID of the calling process; a simple_lock was added
to protect the insert/removal from the net.bpf.peers sysctl handler.
This idea came from FreeBSD (Christian S.J. Peron) but while it is
implemented with sysctl's it differs a bit.
Reviewed by: christos@ and atatat@ (who gave me the tip for the net.bpf.peers
sysctl helper function).
* Factor out struct selinfo and its header dependencies into its own header,
<sys/selinfo.h>, to avoid namespace pollution.
* Include <sys/selinfo.h> in user-visible headers where necessary.
particule device. In doing this, make a new the bpf_stat structure with
members that are u_long rather than u_int, matching the counters in the bpf_d.
the original bpf_stat is now bpf_stat_old and so to the original ioctl
is preserved as BIOCGSTATSOLD.
Fix the behaviour of BIOCIMMEDIATE (fix from LBL BPF code via FreeBSD.)
In bpf_mtap(), optimise the calling of bpf_filter() and catchpacket()
based on whether or not the entire packet is in one mbuf (based on
similar change FreeBSD but fixes BIOC*SEESENT issue with that.)
Copy the implementation of BIOCSSEESENT, BIOCGSEESENT by FreeBSD.

the "header already complete" flag. This allows BPF writers to spoof
layer 2 source addresses (providing the layer 2 in use supports it) in
applications where this is necessary. From Greg Smith <greg@nas.nasa.gov>.
* grok FIONBIO, FIOASYNC, and TIOC{G,S}PGRP
* add BIOC{G,S}RSIG; get/set the signal to be delivered
to the process or process group upon packet reception.
