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.

core filename format, which allow to change the name of the core dump,
and to relocate it in a directory. Credits to Bill Sommerfeld for giving me
the idea :)
The default core filename format can be changed by options DEFCORENAME and/or
kern.defcorename
Create a new sysctl tree, proc, which holds per-process values (for now
the corename format, and resources limits). Process is designed by its pid
at the second level name. These values are inherited on fork, and the corename
fomat is reset to defcorename on suid/sgid exec.
Create a p_sugid() function, to take appropriate actions on suid/sgid
exec (for now set the P_SUGID flag and reset the per-proc corename).
Adjust dosetrlimit() to allow changing limits of one proc by another, with
credential controls.
This is important, because for most protocols, link level fragmentation is
used, but with different default effective MTUs. (e.g.: IPv4 default MTU
is 1500 octets, IPv6 default MTU is 9072 octets).
rewrite of the driver for the DECchip 21x4x Ethernet chips, and a variety
of clones.
Currently, the driver supports the Winbond 89C840F (this works pretty
well), and the Lite-On PNIC (e.g. NetGear PCI boards), however Lite-On
support may be broken [I may simply have a busted test board].
Eventually, support for the Macronix and ASIX chips will filter into
this driver, and then, slowly, support for the genuine DEC chips,
and maybe even the DE-425 EISA model.
