of helper functions:
- carp_master() - boolean function which is true if an address
is in the MASTER state.
- ifa_preferred() - boolean function that compares two addresses,
and is aware of CARP.
Utilize ifa_preferred() in ifa_ifwithnet().
The previous version of patch also changed source address selection
logic in jails using carp_master(), but we failed to negotiate this part
with Bjoern. May be we will approach this problem again later.

of the newer drivers. The basic problem was
that the driver was pulling the mbuf off the
drbr ring and then when sending with xmit(), encounting
a full transmit ring. Thus the lower layer
xmit() function would return an error, and the
drivers would then append the data back on to the ring.
For TCP this is a horrible scenario sure to bring
on a fast-retransmit.
The fix is to use drbr_peek() to pull the data pointer
but not remove it from the ring. If it fails then
we either call the new drbr_putback or drbr_advance
method. Advance moves it forward (we do this sometimes
when the xmit() function frees the mbuf). When
we succeed we always call advance. The
putback will always copy the mbuf back to the top
of the ring. Note that the putback *cannot* be used
with a drbr_dequeue() only with drbr_peek(). We most
of the time, in putback, would not need to copy it
back since most likey the mbuf is still the same, but
sometimes xmit() functions will change the mbuf via
a pullup or other call. So the optimial case for
the single consumer is to always copy it back. If
we ever do a multiple_consumer (for lagg?) we
will need a test and atomic in the put back possibly
a seperate putback_mc() in the ring buf.

Since ARP and routing are separated, "proxy only" entries

in sockaddr to pass SIN_PROXY flag.
New kernel is binary compatible with old tools, since sizes
of sockaddr_inarp and sockaddr_in match, and sa_family are

The structure declaration is left for compatibility with

in network byte order. Any host byte order processing is
done in local variables and host byte order values are
never[1] written to a packet.
After this change a packet processed by the stack isn't
modified at all[2] except for TTL.
After this change a network stack hacker doesn't need to
scratch his head trying to figure out what is the byte order
at the given place in the stack.
[1] One exception still remains. The raw sockets convert host
byte order before pass a packet to an application. Probably
this would remain for ages for compatibility.
[2] The ip_input() still subtructs header len from ip->ip_len,
but this is planned to be fixed soon.

However, it is possible to request personal lock by specifying
PFIL_FLAG_PRIVATE_LOCK flag in pfil_head structure (see pfil.9 for
more details).
Export PFIL lock via rw_lock(9)/rm_lock(9)-like API permitting pfil consumers
to use this lock instead of own lock. This help reducing locks on main
traffic path.
pfil_assert() is currently not implemented due to absense of rm_assert().
