they are created on the fly. This makes it clear what the route is for
and allows an optimisation in ip_output() by avoiding a call to
in_broadcast() because most of the time we do talk to a host.
It also avoids a needless allocation for the storage of llinfo_arp and
thus vanishes from arp(8) - it showed as incomplete anyway so this
is a nice side effect.
Guard against this and routes marked with RTF_BLACKHOLE in
ip_fastforward().
While here, guard against routes marked with RTF_BLACKHOLE in
ip6_fastforward().
RTF_BROADCAST is IPv4 only, so don't bother checking that here.
pointers but missed (char *)&soup->so_foo => (char *)soup->so_foo in
mask_addr(). It worked by luck - unless it didn't: due to pointer
numerology on amd64 route add -net ClassC without explicit /24 prefix
length specification would result into /16 destination instead of /24.
RTF_ANNOUNCE was defined as RTF_PROTO2. The flag is used to indicated
that host should act as a proxy for a link level arp or ndp request.
(If RTF_PROTO2 is used as an experimental flag (as advertised),
various problems can occur.)
This commit provides a first-class definition with its own bit for
RTF_ANNOUNCE, removes the old aliasing definitions, and adds support
for the new RTF_ANNOUNCE flag to netstat(8) and route(8).,
Also, remove unused RTF_ flags that collide with RTF_PROTO1:
netinet/icmp6.h defined RTF_PROBEMTU as RTF_PROTO1
netinet/if_inarp.h defined RTF_USETRAILERS as RTF_PROTO1
(Neither of these flags are used anywhere. Both have been removed
to reduce chances of collision with RTF_PROTO1.)
Figuring this out and the diff are the work of Beverly Schwartz of
BBN.
(Passed release build, boot in VM, with no apparently related atf
failures.)

This will help me address bin/11079, "dhclient may require arp and sed".
Extract common code from flushroutes() and show(), creating
parse_show_opts().
While I'm here, make small cosmetic changes to flushroutes().
