tells whether it should detect and convert to binary a hexadecimal octet
string of the form 0x0123ABab, or leave those strings undecoded.
If the argument for a 'media', 'mediamode', 'mediaopt', '-mediaopt',
'nwkey', or 'bssid' keyword is a hexadecimal octet string, do not detect
and decode it. (Note that setifnwkey decodes hexadecimal strings on its
own.)
This fixes a bug noticed by Jim Miller where the trailing zero-octets
were discarded from hexadecimal octet-string arguments for 'nwkey'.
so that this part doesn't get included in install media versions
of ifconfig, as per comments on source-changes@ from Izumi Tsutsui.
Also re-instate the use of ${.CURDIR} when setting up the include path.
may be included by different parts of the source tree, in particular
deep down in the distrib/ tree, where ../.. isn't sufficient to "climb"
up to the top of the tree. Fixes the build at least for our arc port.
Pfsync interface exposes change in the pf(4) over a pseudo-interface, and can
be used to synchronise different pf.

addresses. Make the kernel support SIOC[SG]IFADDRPREF for IPv6
interface addresses.
In in6ifa_ifpforlinklocal(), consult preference numbers before
making an otherwise arbitrary choice of in6_ifaddr. Otherwise,
preference numbers are *not* consulted by the kernel, but that will
be rather easy for somebody with a little bit of free time to fix.
Please note that setting the preference number for a link-local
IPv6 address does not work right, yet, but that ought to be fixed
soon.
In support of the changes above,
1 Add a method to struct domain for "externalizing" a sockaddr, and
provide an implementation for IPv6. Expect more work in this area: it
may be more proper to say that the IPv6 implementation "internalizes"
a sockaddr. Add sockaddr_externalize().
2 Add a subroutine, sofamily(), that returns a struct socket's address
family or AF_UNSPEC.
3 Make a lot of IPv4-specific code generic, and move it from
sys/netinet/ to sys/net/ for re-use by IPv6 parts of the kernel and
ifconfig(8).
or route(8): it tells ifconfig(8) to try to resolve numbers to
hosts and service names.
This default ifconfig behavior stays the same as it always was.
value to put a prop_string_t into the environment, but the keyword
parser put a prop_data_t into the environment, instead. That broke
the -vlanif and -carpdev keywords and defied developer expectations.
Let's put a prop_string_t into the environment.
Thanks to Arnaud Degroote for reporting the problem.

the kernel.
Activated by "make RUMP_ACTION=1". No changes to normal case.
ifa_data member of every AF_LINK struct ifaddrs points at the
corresponding struct if_data. In ifconfig(8), do not try to suppress
duplicate AF_LINK ifaddrs by checking for a NULL ifa_data.
Don't copy out two AF_LINK struct ifaddrs for each active link-layer
address. getifaddrs(3) used to copy out one ifaddrs for the kernel's
RTM_IFINFO message, and one more for the kernel's RTM_NEWADDR message.
I suppress the first duplicate with a highly conservative change that
wastes a little bit of ifaddrs storage. The storage is not leaked.
'address: ' field, don't treat the first address as the active address,
but search the link-layer addresses for the ones flagged IFLR_ACTIVE,
and print those. Extract a subroutine, print_link_addresses(), for
printing link-layer addresses.

Mention the 'link' address family. Describe the 'active' keyword.

without subsequently doing anything with it, so commit_address()
works with an address with phase == 0. phase == 0 is not allowed,
hence
random84# ifconfig nfe0 atalk 3.14
ifconfig: SIOCAIFADDR: Invalid argument
Solution: copy the new sockaddr_at to a temporary input environment,
and pass that environment to commit_address(). I may as well copy
the new sockaddr_at to the output environment, while I am at it.
