Previously, ppp attempted to bind() to a local domain tcp socket
based on the peer authname & enddisc. If it succeeded, it listen()ed
and became MP server. If it failed, it connect()ed and became MP
client. The server then select()ed on the descriptor, accept()ed
it and wrote its pid to it then read the link data & link file descriptor,
and finally sent an ack (``!''). The client would read() the server
pid, transfer the link lock to that pid, send the link data & descriptor
and read the ack. It would then close the descriptor and clean up.
There was a race between the bind() and listen() where someone could
attempt to connect() and fail.
This change removes the race. Now ppp makes the RCVBUF big enough on a
socket descriptor and attempts to bind() to a local domain *udp* socket
(same name as before). If it succeeds, it becomes MP server. If it
fails, it sets the SNDBUF and connect()s, becoming MP client. The server
select()s on the descriptor and recvmsg()s the message, insisting on at
least two descriptors (plus the link data). It uses the second descriptor
to write() its pid then read()s an ack (``!''). The client creates a
socketpair() and sendmsg()s the link data, link descriptor and one of
the socketpair descriptors. It then read()s the server pid from the
other socketpair descriptor, transfers any locks and write()s an ack.
Now, there can be no race, and a connect() failure indicates a stale
socket file.
This also fixes MP ppp over ethernet, where the struct msghdr was being
misconstructed when transferring the control socket descriptor.
Also, if we fail to send the link, don't hang around in a ``session
owner'' state, just do the setsid() and fork() if it's required to
disown a tty.
UDP idea suggested by: Chris Bennet from Mindspring at FreeBSDCon
with NetBSD and the Single Unix Specification v2.
This updates some structures with other, almost equivalent types and
effort is under way to get the whole more consistent.
Also removes a double definition of INET6 and some other clean-ups.

Thanks to phk for telling me the other word is kokkenmoding, an

a stone-age household. I didn't add it to the list, however, since

pre-Aug 4.0-CURRENT worlds and those with pre-GCC 2.95.2 worlds.
The problem with pre-Aug worlds is the installed Byacc and Bison doesn't
have necessary changes to compile either GCC 2.95 or EGCS 1.1.x.
The problem with pre-GCC 2.95 worlds is libgcc is built with the wrong
compiler. See rev 1.17 of src/gnu/lib/libgcc/Makefile (which used to live
in src/gnu/usr.bin/cc/libgcc) + commit messge for details of the requirements.

We now have an additional 14 subtypes available in ethernet.
Use one of them immediatly for homePNA.

is neither IFF_LOOPBACK or IFF_POINTOPOINT. It's quite common
(and probably more correct) to route local IP numbers via lo0
and it makes configuration easier to assign the hostname address
to local POINTOPOINT links too.
This message usually remains hidden because the loopback interface
gets the highest interface number at boot time, but when the
ethernet interface is added later, the message can get pretty
annoying.
Also, fix a typo.

we instead use 0(%esp), which is per-cpu, already pretty much
guarenteed to be locked into the cache, and does not stress the cache's
set associativity. invlpg might also be a good choice (suggested by
Ingo).

MP lock for the last time. The use of a locked instruction to
cpu-private memory is 3x faster then CPUID and 3x faster then the
use of a locked instruction to shared memory (the lock itself).
Instruction serialization is required to ensure that any pending
memory ops are properly flushed prior to the release of the lock,
due to out-of-order instruction execution by the cpu.

make(1) uses sysctlbyname() to find out if it is running on a PC98
machine. This check has been added on 1998/9/9. The MIB variable was
added on 1998/8/31. At that time __FreeBSD_version was 300003. So,
only perform the check *if* __FreeBSD_version is defined and if it's
greater than 300003.
For the record: sysctlbyname was added on 1997/5/30 so this change
automaticly handles that...
vm_map always failed because vm_map_lookup() looked at
"vm_map_entry->wired_count" instead of "(vm_map_entry->eflags &
MAP_ENTRY_USER_WIRED)". The effect was that many page
wiring operations by sysctl were (silently) failing.
Since an osigcontext is smaller, if you check for a valid (much larger sized)
ucontext_t and it fails, we bogusly would reject the osigcontext as per
rev 1.378. Instead, check for osigcontext range validity first, and
ucontext_t later. This unbreaks Netscape.
