1. rt_check() cleanup:
rt_check() is only necessary for some address families to gain access
to the corresponding arp entry, so call it only in/near the *resolve()
routines where it is actually used -- at the moment this is
arpresolve(), nd6_storelladdr() (the call is embedded here),
and atmresolve() (the call is just before atmresolve to reduce
the number of changes).
This change will make it a lot easier to decouple the arp table
from the routing table.
There is an extra call to rt_check() in if_iso88025subr.c to
determine the routing info length. I have left it alone for
the time being.
The interface of arpresolve() and nd6_storelladdr() now changes slightly:
+ the 'rtentry' parameter (really a hint from the upper level layer)
is now passed unchanged from *_output(), so it becomes the route
to the final destination and not to the gateway.
+ the routines will return 0 if resolution is possible, non-zero
otherwise.
+ arpresolve() returns EWOULDBLOCK in case the mbuf is being held
waiting for an arp reply -- in this case the error code is masked
in the caller so the upper layer protocol will not see a failure.
2. arpcom untangling
Where possible, use 'struct ifnet' instead of 'struct arpcom' variables,
and use the IFP2AC macro to access arpcom fields.
This mostly affects the netatalk code.

an interface or route that changed since first PMTU discovery.
The bug would have caused TCP to redo the PMTU discovery when
not strictly necessary.

source address of a packet exists in the routing table. The
default route is ignored because it would match everything and
render the check pointless.
This option is very useful for routers with a complete view of
the Internet (BGP) in the routing table to reject packets with
spoofed or unrouteable source addresses.

implementation taken directly from OpenBSD.
I've resisted committing this for quite some time because of concern over
TIME_WAIT recycling breakage (sequential allocation ensures that there is a
long time before ports are recycled), but recent testing has shown me that
my fears were unwarranted.
TIME_WAIT recycling cases I was able to generate with http testing tools.
In short, as the old algorithm relied on ticks to create the time offset
component of an ISN, two connections with the exact same host, port pair
that were generated between timer ticks would have the exact same sequence
number. As a result, the second connection would fail to pass the TIME_WAIT
check on the server side, and the SYN would never be acknowledged.
I've "fixed" this by adding random positive increments to the time component
between clock ticks so that ISNs will *always* be increasing, no matter how
quickly the port is recycled.
Except in such contrived benchmarking situations, this problem should never
come up in normal usage... until networks get faster.
No MFC planned, 4.x is missing other optimizations that are needed to even
create the situation in which such quick port recycling will occur.

we convert ip_len into a network byte order; in_delayed_cksum() still
expects it in host byte order.
The symtom was the ``in_cksum_skip: out of data by %d'' complaints
from the kernel.
To add to the previous commit log. These fixes make tcpdump(1) happy
by not complaining about UDP/TCP checksum being bad for looped back
IP multicast when multicast router is deactivated.

to implement this mistake.
Fixed some nearby style bugs (initialization in declaration, misformatting
of this initialization, missing blank line after the declaration, and
comparision of the non-boolean result of the initialization with 0 using
"!". In KNF, "!" is not even used to compare booleans with 0).
It was fixed by moving problemetic checks, as well as checks that
doesn't need locking before locks are acquired.

Previously, Giant would be grabbed at entry to the IP local delivery code
when debug.mpsafenet was set to true, as that implied Giant wouldn't be
grabbed in the driver path. Now, we will use this primitive to
conditionally grab Giant in the event the entire network stack isn't
running MPSAFE (debug.mpsafenet == 0).
Compute the payload checksum for a locally originated IP multicast where
God intended, in ip_mloopback(), rather than doing it in ip_output() and
only when multicast router is active. This is more correct as we do not
fool ip_input() that the packet has the correct payload checksum when in
fact it does not (when multicast router is inactive). This is also more
efficient if we don't join the multicast group we send to, thus allowing
the hardware to checksum the payload.
- Add gre_mtx to protect global softc list.
- Hold gre_mtx over various list operations (insert, delete).
- Centralize if_gre interface teardown in gre_destroy(), and call this
from modevent unload and gre_clone_destroy().
- Export gre_mtx to ip_gre.c, which walks the gre list to look up gre
interfaces during encapsulation. Add a wonking comment on how we need
some sort of drain/reference count mechanism to keep gre references
alive while in use and simultaneous destroy.
This commit does not lockdown softc data, which follows in a future
commit.
- Add encapmtx to protect ip_encap.c global variables (encapsulation
list).
- Unifdef #ifdef 0 pieces of encap_init() which was (and now really
is) basically a no-op.
- Lock encapmtx when walking encaptab, modifying it, comparing
entries, etc.
- Remove spl's.
Note that currently there's no facilite to make sure outstanding
use of encapsulation methods on a table entry have drained bfore
we allow a table entry to be removed. As such, it's currently the
caller's responsibility to make sure that draining takes place.
