Remove lots'o'hacks.
looutput is now static.
Other callers who want to use loopback to allow shortcutting
should call the special entrypoint for this, if_simloop(), which is
specifically designed for this purpose. Using looutput for this purpose
was problematic, particularly with bpf and trying to keep track
of whether one should be using the charateristics of the loopback interface
or the interface (e.g. if_ethersubr.c) that was requesting the loopback.
There was a whole class of errors due to this mis-use each of which had
hacks to cover them up.
Consists largly of hack removal :-)
FreeBSD/alpha. The most significant item is to change the command
argument to ioctl functions from int to u_long. This change brings us
inline with various other BSD versions. Driver writers may like to
use (__FreeBSD_version == 300003) to detect this change.
The prototype FreeBSD/alpha machdep will follow in a couple of days
time.
NetBSD, ported to FreeBSD by Pierre Beyssac <pb@fasterix.freenix.org> and
minorly tweaked by me.
This is a standard part of FreeBSD, but must be enabled with:
"sysctl -w net.inet.ip.fastforwarding=1" ...and of course forwarding must
also be enabled. This should probably be modified to use the zone
allocator for speed and space efficiency. The current algorithm also
appears to lose if the number of active paths exceeds IPFLOW_MAX (256),
in which case it wastes lots of time trying to figure out which cache
entry to drop.
* Figure out UTC relative to boottime. Four new functions provide
time relative to boottime.
* move "runtime" into struct proc. This helps fix the calcru()
problem in SMP.
* kill mono_time.
* add timespec{add|sub|cmp} macros to time.h. (XXX: These may change!)
* nanosleep, select & poll takes long sleeps one day at a time

"time" wasn't a atomic variable, so splfoo() protection were needed
around any access to it, unless you just wanted the seconds part.
Most uses of time.tv_sec now uses the new variable time_second instead.
gettime() changed to getmicrotime(0.
Remove a couple of unneeded splfoo() protections, the new getmicrotime()
is atomic, (until Bruce sets a breakpoint in it).
A couple of places needed random data, so use read_random() instead
of mucking about with time which isn't random.
Add a new nfs_curusec() function.
Mark a couple of bogosities involving the now disappeard time variable.
Update ffs_update() to avoid the weird "== &time" checks, by fixing the
one remaining call that passwd &time as args.
Change profiling in ncr.c to use ticks instead of time. Resolution is
the same.
Add new function "tvtohz()" to avoid the bogus "splfoo(), add time, call
hzto() which subtracts time" sequences.

Initial attempt at a compatability kludge that will negotiate for either
but will prefer to use the correct deflate compression type.

I've had to patch this in porting code. The problem is the
"struct timeval ifi_lastchange" in the mib stats. (most other systems don't
have this, until 4.4bsd anyway).
work reliably yet (I've had panics), but it does seem to occasionally
be able to transmit and receive syntactically-correct packets.
Also fixes one of if_ethersubr.c's legion style bugs, and removes
the hostcache code from standard kernels---the code that depends on it
is not going to happen any time soon, I'm afraid.
The differences Terrys patch and this patch are:
* Remove a lot of un-needed comments.
* Don't put l_hotchar at the front of stuct linesw, there is no need to.
* Use the #defines for the hotchar in the SLIP and PPP line disciplines
since pkh made tunctl static in revision 1.17 these are already
guaranteed to be zero'd and tunattach will only be called once.

This introduce an xxxFS_BOOT for each of the rootable filesystems.
(Presently not required, but encouraged to allow a smooth move of option *FS
to opt_dontuse.h later.)
LFS is temporarily disabled, and will be re-enabled tomorrow.
it contains an address. This can replace all the myriad (wrong) ways
in which this task is performed in the current system. As an added
bonus, since it's a macro, then third-party software vendors have an easy
way to tell whether it's there or not. (This will become necessary
when sizeof(struct sockaddr) is increaased, and also when additional
fields are added to struct ifreq.)
