Netlinks is a communication protocol currently used in Linux kernel to modify,
read and subscribe for nearly all networking state. Interfaces, addresses, routes,
firewall, fibs, vnets, etc are controlled via netlink.
It is async, TLV-based protocol, providing 1-1 and 1-many communications.
The current implementation supports the subset of NETLINK_ROUTE
family. To be more specific, the following is supported:
* Dumps:
- routes
- nexthops / nexthop groups
- interfaces
- interface addresses
- neighbors (arp/ndp)
* Notifications:
- interface arrival/departure
- interface address arrival/departure
- route addition/deletion
* Modifications:
- adding/deleting routes
- adding/deleting nexthops/nexthops groups
- adding/deleting neghbors
- adding/deleting interfaces (basic support only)
* Rtsock interaction
- route events are bridged both ways
The implementation also supports the NETLINK_GENERIC family framework.
Implementation notes:
Netlink is implemented via loadable/unloadable kernel module,
not touching many kernel parts.
Each netlink socket uses dedicated taskqueue to support async operations
that can sleep, such as interface creation. All message processing is
performed within these taskqueues.
Compatibility:
Most of the Netlink data models specified above maps to FreeBSD concepts
nicely. Unmodified ip(8) binary correctly works with
interfaces, addresses, routes, nexthops and nexthop groups. Some
software such as net/bird require header-only modifications to compile
and work with FreeBSD netlink.

Users with a tmpfs /var/run will lose the directory tree state of
/var/run at reboot. This rc script will optionally (by default)
capture the state of the directory structure in /var/run prior to
shutdown and recreate it at system boot.
Alternatively a user can save the state of the /var/run directories
manually using service var_run save and disable the autosaving of
/var/run state using the var_run_autosave variable, for those
paranoid SSD users.

The program will be installed as bintrans, uuencode, uudecode,
b64encode, and b64decode and will be responsible for running the coders
according to their historical behavior.
Additionally, bintrans will be able to take a parameter designating
the coder and accept all its options in this form:
bintrans <coder> [options]
and the behavior should be the same as if
<coder> [options]
was invoked.
This has the advantage that adding coders won't require installing them
as binaries.
Move uudecode files to uuencode since the latter is the one that

The gunion(8) utility is used to track changes to a read-only disk on
a writable disk. Logically, a writable disk is placed over a read-only
disk. Write requests are intercepted and stored on the writable
disk. Read requests are first checked to see if they have been
written on the top (writable disk) and if found are returned. If
they have not been written on the top disk, then they are read from
the lower disk.
The gunion(8) utility can be especially useful if you have a large
disk with a corrupted filesystem that you are unsure of how to
repair. You can use gunion(8) to place another disk over the corrupted
disk and then attempt to repair the filesystem. If the repair fails,
you can revert all the changes in the upper disk and be back to the
unchanged state of the lower disk thus allowing you to try another
approach to repairing it. If the repair is successful you can commit
all the writes recorded on the top disk to the lower disk.
Another use of the gunion(8) utility is to try out upgrades to your
system. Place the upper disk over the disk holding your filesystem
that is to be upgraded and then run the upgrade on it. If it works,
commit it; if it fails, revert the upgrade.
Further details can be found in the gunion(8) manual page.

Upstream one-true-awk has two sets of tests. These are in addition to
NetBSD's tests we're using. The 'bugs-fixed' tests from upstream are
ready to use as-is (more or less). However, the 'tests' from upstream
are not, so for now we'll just use the netbsd and bugs-fixed tests.
They provide an OK workout and are better than nothing, though the tests
themselves are for specific esoteric things.
The upstream bugs-fixed tests are *ALMOST* a drop in. However, 3 test
for errors and the upstream test jig mashes stdout and stderr together,
which atf doesn't do, so make a tiny tweak to the upstream tests that I
hope to upstream. Plus upstream has ../a.out: instead of awk: in the
output. Not sure how to deal with this yet, so I've not proposed
anything upstream and have changed the test locally.
In addition, the system-status.awk test is not suitable to run in ATF.
It wants to force sh to dump core, but kyua doesn't seem to allow that
sometimes so the test will fail or pass based on whether or not a core
dump can be created. Since it's unstable, remove it.
This required moving the netbsd tests to a new direcotry, so update
mtree files as well. The change is useless for 'make check' without it.

Using /etc/jail.{jailname}.conf is nice, however it makes /etc/ very
messy if you have many jails. This patch allows one to move these
config files out of the way into /etc/jail.conf.d/{jailname}.conf.
Note that the same caveat as /etc/jail.*.conf applies: the jail service
will not autodiscover all of these for starting 'all' jails. This is
considered future work, since the behavior matches.
