5ecf77367c - Allocate scratch memory on stack instead of pre-allocating it with
the filter as we do from bpf_filter()[1].
- Revert experimental use of contigmalloc(9)/contigfree(9).  It has no
performance benefit over malloc(9)/free(9)[2].

ae4fdab8a8 - Change internal function bpf_jit_compile() to return allocated size of
the generated binary and remove page size limitation for userland.
- Use contigmalloc(9)/contigfree(9) instead of malloc(9)/free(9) to make
sure the generated binary aligns properly and make it physically contiguous.

366652f987 - Make BPF JIT compiler working again in userland. We are limiting size of
generated native binary to page size for now.
- Update copyright date and fix some style nits.

848c454cc1 Add BPF Just-In-Time compiler support for ng_bpf(4).
The sysctl is changed from net.bpf.jitter.enable to net.bpf_jitter.enable
and this controls both bpf(4) and ng_bpf(4) now.

ae275efcae Add experimental BPF Just-In-Time compiler for amd64 and i386.
Use the following kernel configuration option to enable:

	options BPF_JITTER

If you want to use bpf_filter() instead (e. g., debugging), do:

	sysctl net.bpf.jitter.enable=0

to turn it off.

Currently BIOCSETWF and bpf_mtap2() are unsupported, and bpf_mtap() is
partially supported because 1) no need, 2) avoid expensive m_copydata(9).

Obtained from:	WinPcap 3.1 (for i386)
