attached.
- Add ether_crc32_be() and ether_crc_le(), common functions for computing
the Ethernet CRC on arbitrary length buffers. Nothing uses them yet,
and these should be double-checked and probably re-implemented as
table-driven functions.
parties can easily know the state of a link.
- Define an interface announcement message for the routing socket so that
routing daemons and other interested parties know when an interface
is attached/detached.
pfil information, instead, struct protosw now contains a structure
which caontains list heads, etc. The per-protosw pfil struct is passed
to pfil_hook_get(), along with an in/out flag to get the head of the
relevant filter list. This has been done for only IPv4 and IPv6, at
present, with these patches only enabling filtering for IPPROTO_IP and
IPPROTO_IPV6, although it is possible to have tcp/udp, etc, dedicated
filters now also. The ipfilter code has been updated to only filter
IPv4 packets - next major release of ipfilter is required for ipv6.
the hack tries to respect ifa or ifp passed to RTM_ADD. However, the change
broke certain link-layers. They include:
- midway ethernet card (en*), which uses sockaddr_dl in gateway portion
to pass PVC information. with the patch, the gateway portion will be
overwritten by empty sockaddr_dl and PVC initialization will fail.
- IPv6, which can't set static ND table with the patch (ndp -s), for the
similar reason as above.
There may be improved hack coming soon, hope the new one does not break others.
(net/pfkeyv2.h used to just include netkey/keyv2.h).
netkey/keyv2.h includes #error only for several days, to inform
of file path change. after that I plan to nuke the file.
although this version has been changed somewhat:
- reference counting on ifaddrs isn't as complete as Bill's original
work was. This is hard to get right, and we should attack one
protocol at a time.
- This doesn't do reference counting or dynamic allocation of ifnets yet.
- This version introduces a new PRU -- PRU_PURGEADDR, which is used to
purge an ifaddr from a protocol. The old method Bill used didn't work
on all protocols, and it only worked on some because it was Very Lucky.
This mostly works ... i.e. works for my USB Ethernet, except for a dangling
ifaddr reference left by the IPv6 code; have not yet tracked this down.
code, from netbsd-current repository.
#ifdef'ed version is always available from ftp.kame.net.
XXX please do not make too many diff-unfriendly changes, we'll need to take
bunch of diffs on upgrade...
due to massive changes in KAME side.
- IPv6 output goes through nd6_output
- faith can capture IPv4 packets as well - you can run IPv4-to-IPv6 translator
using heavily modified DNS servers
- per-interface statistics (required for IPv6 MIB)
- interface autoconfig is revisited
- udp input handling has a big change for mapped address support.
- introduce in4_cksum() for non-overwriting checksumming
- introduce m_pulldown()
- neighbor discovery cleanups/improvements
- netinet/in.h strictly conforms to RFC2553 (no extra defs visible to userland)
- IFA_STATS is fixed a bit (not tested)
- and more more more.
TODO:
- cleanup os-independency #ifdef
- avoid rcvif dual use (for IPsec) to help ifdetach
(sorry for jumbo commit, I can't separate this any more...)
just for reference purposes.
This commit includes 1.4 -> 1.4.1 sync for kame branch.
The branch does not compile at all (due to the lack of ALTQ and some other
source code). Please do not try to modify the branch, this is just for
referenre purposes.
synchronization to latest KAME will take place on HEAD branch soon.
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.
