timeout()/untimeout() API:
- Clients supply callout handle storage, thus eliminating problems of
resource allocation.
- Insertion and removal of callouts is constant time, important as
this facility is used quite a lot in the kernel.
The old timeout()/untimeout() API has been removed from the kernel.
amount of physical memory, divide it by 4, and then allow machine
dependent code to place upper and lower bounds on the size. Export
the computed value to userspace via the new "vm.nkmempages" sysctl.
NKMEMCLUSTERS is now deprecated and will generate an error if you
attempt to use it. The new option, should you choose to use it,
is called NKMEMPAGES, and two new options NKMEMPAGES_MIN and
NKMEMPAGES_MAX allow the user to configure the bounds in the kernel
config file.
- interop issues in ipcomp is fixed
- padding type (after ESP) is configurable
- key database memory management (need more fixes)
- policy specification is revisited
XXX m->m_pkthdr.rcvif is still overloaded - hope to fix it soon
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...)
default, as the copyright on the main file (ffs_softdep.c) is such
that is has been put into gnusrc. options SOFTDEP will pull this
in. This code also contains the trickle syncer.
Bump version number to 1.4O
deal correctly with more than 32767 routes out an interface.
Should close PR 7148 regarding problems when ifs_refcnt overflows.
Bump kernel version from 1.4L to 1.4M.
CardBus bus stub, YENTA PCI-CardBus bridge (cbb), 3Com 3C575TX driver
(ex) and Intel fxp driver.
TODO:
o Conform to the KNF more strictly.
o Be unified with pcmcia code as much as possible.
o Add more drivers for CardBus card, such as APA-1480 or USB card.
