0f56b10c4b Enlighten those who read the FINE POINTS of the documentation a bit
more on how ipfw(8) deals with tiny fragments. While we're at it, add
a quick log message to even let people know we dropped a packet. (Note
that the second FINE POINT is somewhat redundant given the first, but
since the code is there, leave the docs for it.)

e036a58dab o Note that packets diverted using a 'divert' socket, and then
reinserted by a userland process, will lose a number of packet
  attributes, including their source interface.  This may affect
  the behavior of later rules, and while not strictly a BUG, may
  cause unexpected behavior if not clearly documented.  A similar
  note for natd(8) might be desirable.

c1201321e4 Move the discussion of how many times a packet will pass through
ipfirewall(4) to the IMPLEMENTATION NOTES section because it
considers kernel internals and may confuse newbies if placed
at the very beginning of the manpage (where it used to be previously.)

b53adbbf93 now that jlemon has added a hash table to lookup locally configured ip
addresses (and the macros that ipfw(4) use to lookup data for the 'me'
keyword have been converted) remove a comment about using 'me' being a
"computationally expensive" operation.

while I'm here, change two instances of "IP number" to "IP address"

830cc17841 Two main changes here:
+ implement "limit" rules, which permit to limit the number of sessions
   between certain host pairs (according to masks). These are a special
   type of stateful rules, which might be of interest in some cases.
   See the ipfw manpage for details.

 + merge the list pointers and ipfw rule descriptors in the kernel, so
   the code is smaller, faster and more readable. This patch basically
   consists in replacing "foo->rule->bar" with "rule->bar" all over
   the place.
   I have been willing to do this for ages!

c4d9468ea0 mdoc(7) police:
Avoid using parenthesis enclosure macros (.Pq and .Po/.Pc) with plain text.
Not only this slows down the mdoc(7) processing significantly, but it also
has an undesired (in this case) effect of disabling hyphenation within the

266b63f4d0 Invert the meaning of the -d option (i.e. default to *not* list dynamic rules,
but list them if -d was specified).

Avoid listing expired dynamic rules unless the (new) -e option was specified.

If specific rule numbers were listed on the command line, and the -d flag was
specified, only list dynamic rules that match the specified rule numbers.

Try to partly clean up the bleeding mess this file has become.  If there is
any justice in this world, the responsible parties (you know who you are!)
should expect to wake up one morning with a horse's head in their bed.  The
code still looks like spaghetti, but at least now it's *properly intented*
spaghetti (hmm?  did somebody say "tagliatelle"?).

78e4a3143e Add a flag to "ipfw show" which supresses the display of dynamic

bb07ec8c84 Introduce a new feature in IPFW: Check of the source or destination
address is configured on a interface.  This is useful for routers with
dynamic interfaces.  It is now possible to say:

        0100 allow       tcp from any to any established
        0200 skipto 1000 tcp from any to any
        0300 allow       ip from any to any
        1000 allow       tcp from 1.2.3.4 to me 22
        1010 deny        tcp from any to me 22
        1020 allow       tcp from any to any

and not have to worry about the behaviour if dynamic interfaces configure
new IP numbers later on.

The check is semi expensive (traverses the interface address list)
so it should be protected as in the above example if high performance
is a requirement.

56345b0f5c Turn on 'ipfw tee'. Update man page. Please note (from the man page):
Packets that match a tee rule should not be immediately accepted,
    but should continue going through the rule list.  This may be fixed
    in a later version.

I hope to fix this soon in a separate commit.

32e7924603 To christen the brand new security category for syslog, we get IPFW
using syslog(3) (log(9)) for its various purposes! This long-awaited
change also includes such nice things as:
	* macros expanding into _two_ comma-delimited arguments!
	* snprintf!
	* more snprintf!
	* linting and criticism by more people than you can shake a stick at!
	* a slightly more uniform message style than before!
	 and last but not least
	* no less than 5 rewrites!

f0706ad422 Userland and manual page changes for probabilistic rule match.
Because the kernel change was done in a backward-compatible way,

0b6c1a832d Make ipfw's logging more dynamic. Now, log will use the default limit
_or_ you may specify "log logamount number" to set logging specifically
the rule.
   In addition, "ipfw resetlog" has been added, which will reset the
logging counters on any/all rule(s). ipfw resetlog does not affect
the packet/byte counters (as ipfw reset does), and is the only "set"
command that can be run at securelevel >= 3.
   This should address complaints about not being able to set logging
amounts, not being able to restart logging at a high securelevel,
and not being able to just reset logging without resetting all of the
counters in a rule.
