install a p2p host route between the end points. The ppp module
upates this router based on user configuration later on. The
rt_Update() seems to always set the RTF_GATEWAY flag, which is
broken.
1. separating L2 tables (ARP, NDP) from the L3 routing tables
2. removing as much locking dependencies among these layers as
possible to allow for some parallelism in the search operations
3. simplify the logic in the routing code,
The most notable end result is the obsolescent of the route
cloning (RTF_CLONING) concept, which translated into code reduction
in both IPv4 ARP and IPv6 NDP related modules, and size reduction in
struct rtentry{}. The change in design obsoletes the semantics of
RTF_CLONING, RTF_WASCLONE and RTF_LLINFO routing flags. The userland
applications such as "arp" and "ndp" have been modified to reflect
those changes. The output from "netstat -r" shows only the routing
entries.
Quite a few developers have contributed to this project in the
past: Glebius Smirnoff, Luigi Rizzo, Alessandro Cerri, and
Andre Oppermann. And most recently:
- Kip Macy revised the locking code completely, thus completing
the last piece of the puzzle, Kip has also been conducting
active functional testing
- Sam Leffler has helped me improving/refactoring the code, and
provided valuable reviews
- Julian Elischer setup the perforce tree for me and has helped
me maintaining that branch before the svn conversion
o Bump version number to 3.0.4
o When talking to a RADIUS server, provide a NAS-Port-Type.
When the NAS-Port-Type is Ethernet, provide a NAS-Port value equal
to the SESSIONID from the environment in direct mode or the
NGM_PPPOE_SESSIONID message in other modes. If no SESSIONID is found,
default to the interface index in client mode or zero in server mode.
When the NAS-Port-Type is ISDN, set the NAS-Port to the minor number
of the physical device (ie, the N in /dev/i4brbchN).
This makes it easier for the RADIUS server to identify the client

to the routing socket.
The local address on a point-to-point interface is not actually a
gateway address - despite it appearing in the second column of
netstat -r's output. Providing a gateway to an RTM_CHANGE will
currently change the route's interface so that it's using the
specified gateway - not what we want.

This is a no-op on i386 and probably on alphas, as we currently
only support AF_INET and AF_INET6.
of 0.0.0.0.
The OpenBSD PF_ROUTE/NET_RT_DUMP sysctl is sending back routes with
RTAX_NETMASK set, but the corresponding sockaddr being 4 zero bytes
(with an address family of zero). ppp was getting confused by this
and ending up interpreting it as a 0.0.0.0/32 routing table
destination and subsequently failing to do anything with the route.
Specifically, after this fix, ppp under OpenBSD can successfully
change and delete the default route again !

Don't write() the netmask for IPv6 sockaddrs to the routing socket if
the prefixlen is 128.
It seems that messages written to the routing socket with the scopeid
set for link local addresses are not understood. Instead, we have to
put the scopeid in the 5th and 6th bytes of the address (see
adjust_linklocal() in ncpaddr.c). I think this may be a bug in the
KAME implementation - it should really understand both forms.

The code here was broken for FreeBSD when IPv6 support was added, but
was fixed for OpenBSD. OpenBSD expects the gateway and mask to be

IMHO this shouldn't be necessary (the destination & mask/prefixlen

structures (well, they're treated as opaque).
It's now possible to manage IPv6 interface addresses and routing
table entries and to filter IPV6 traffic whether encapsulated or
not.
IPV6CP support is crude for now, and hasn't been tested against
any other implementations.
RADIUS and IPv6 are independent of eachother for now.
ppp.linkup/ppp.linkdown aren't currently used by IPV6CP
o Understand all protocols(5) in filter rules rather than only a select
few.
o Allow a mask specification for the ``delete'' command. It's now
possible to specifically delete one of two conflicting routes.
o When creating and deleting proxy arp entries, do it for all IPv4
interface addresses rather than doing it just for the ``current''
peer address.
o When iface-alias isn't in effect, don't blow away manually (via ``iface
add'') added interface addresses.
o When listening on a tcp server (diagnostic) socket, bind so that a
tcp46 socket is created -- allowing both IPv4 and IPv6 connections.
o When displaying ICMP traffic, don't display the icmp type twice.
When display traffic, display at least some information about unrecognised
traffic.
o Bump version

the layering.
We now ``stack'' layers as soon as we open the device (when we figure
out what we're dealing with). A static set of `dispatch' routines are
also declared for dealing with incoming packets after they've been
`pulled' up through the stacked layers.
Physical devices are now assigned handlers based on the device type
when they're opened. For the moment there are three device types;
ttys, execs and tcps.

TODO: The functionality in libradius::rad_send_request() needs
to be supplied as a set of routines so that ppp doesn't
have to wait indefinitely for the radius server(s). Instead,
we need to get a descriptor back, select() on the descriptor,
and ask libradius to service it when necessary.
For now, ppp blocks SIGALRM while in rad_send_request(), so
it misses PAP/CHAP retries & timeouts if they occur.
Only PAP is functional. When CHAP is attempted, libradius
complains that no User-Password has been specified... rfc2138
says that it *mustn't* be used for CHAP :-(

demand-dial links with dynamic IP numbers where the program
that causes the dial bind()s to an interface address that is
subsequently changed after ppp negotiation.
The problem is defeated by adding negotiated addresses to the
tun interface as additional alias addresses and providing a set
of ``iface'' commands for managing the interface. Libalias is
also required (and what a name clash!) - it happily IP-aliases
the address so that the source is that of the primary (negotiated)
interface and un-IP-aliases it on the way back.
An ``enable iface-alias'' is done implicitly by the -alias command
line switch. If -alias isn't given, iface-aliasing is disabled by
default and can't be enabled 'till an ``alias enable yes'' is done.
``alias enable no'' silently disables iface-alias.
So, for dynamic-IP-type-connections, running ``ppp -alias -auto blah''
will work for the first connection, although existing bindings will
not survive a disconnect/connect as the TCP peer will be trying to
send to the old IP address - the packets won't route.
It's now a lot easier to add IPXCP to ppp with minor updates to
the new iface.[ch] (if anyone ever gets 'round to it).
It's also now possible to manually add interface aliases with
something like ``iface add 1.2.3.4/24 5.6.7.8''. This allows
multi-homed ppp links :-)
``add .... HISADDR''. The network will never be
reachable at this point unless we're in -auto or reading
the command from ppp.linkup.
We can now run the following lines and get the expected
results:
set ifaddr 1.2.3.4/0 5.6.7.8/0
add default HISADDR
where a route is added immediately in auto mode and the
whole thing is delayed 'till the IP numbers have been
agreed in other modes.
Essentially, ppp.linkup is no longer required.
o Allow ``set ....'' when we have multiple links but aren't in
multilink mode.
o Do a TLS when we receive a ``Open'' event in ``Closed'' state,
despite the rfc state transition table. This is clearly an
error in the RFC as TLS cannot have yet been called (without
TLF) in the ``Closed'' state.
I've posted a message to comp.protocols.ppp for confirmation.
o Bring the static ``ttystate'' into struct prompt so that
the tilde context is per prompt and not global.
o Comment the remaining static variables so that it's
clear why they're static.
o Add some XXX comments suggesting that our interface list
and our hostname should be re-generated after a signal
(say SIGUSR1) so that a machine with PCCARDs has a chance.
