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.
(if the definition is like in rfc2553) they are not supposed to be used.
XXX i'm trying to change rfc2553 sockaddr_storage definition to include
"ss_len" and "ss_family". see ipngwg. situation might change soon.
(Sorry for a big commit, I can't separate this into several pieces...)
Pls check sys/netinet6/TODO and sys/netinet6/IMPLEMENTATION for details.
- sys/kern: do not assume single mbuf, accept chained mbuf on passing
data from userland to kernel (or other way round).
- "midway" ATM card: ATM PVC pseudo device support, like those done in ALTQ
package (ftp://ftp.csl.sony.co.jp/pub/kjc/).
- sys/netinet/tcp*: IPv4/v6 dual stack tcp support.
- sys/netinet/{ip6,icmp6}.h, sys/net/pfkeyv2.h: IETF document assumes those
file to be there so we patch it up.
- sys/netinet: IPsec additions are here and there.
- sys/netinet6/*: most of IPv6 code sits here.
- sys/netkey: IPsec key management code
- dev/pci/pcidevs: regen
In my understanding no code here is subject to export control so it
should be safe.
address zero of each net/subnet is a broadcast address.
(The default value is nonzero, which preserves the current behavior).
This can be set using sysctl; the boot-time default can also be
configured using the HOSTZEROBROADCAST kernel config option.
While we're here, defopt HOSTZEROBROADCAST and SUBNETSARELOCAL
NETHER, NFDDI, NARC are not used anywhere. Remove #include "ether.h",
which had no effect.
Removes clash with "options NATM" for native-ATM network protocol stack.
Some of the stuff (e.g., rarpd, bootpd, dhcpd etc., libsa) still will
only support Ethernet. Tcpdump itself should be ok, but libpcap needs
lot of work.
For the detailed change history, look at the commit log entries for
the is-newarp branch.
* Convert several data structures to use queue.h.
* Split in_pcbnotify() into two parts; one for notifying a specific PCB, and
one for notifying all PCBs for a particular foreign address.
The check that the destination of a forwarded ip packet is not on
the loopback net is wrong, and will always fail. The following patch
fixes the problem.
[allows "route add $hostname localhost" to be added to /etc/netstart to
keep things for $hostname away from the ethernet driver]
