This does not exhaust the routing table memory when the system
is under a SYN flood attack. The route entry is not deleted if there
is any prior information cached in it.

is an application space macro and the applications are supposed to be free
to use it as they please (but cannot). This is consistant with the other
BSD's who made this change quite some time ago. More commits to come.
This doesn't change the size or alignment of the structure on either i386
or Alpha, and thus should be binary-compatible (modulo problems with old
applications and routes with more than 2^15 references).

Boy, I'm glad we're not using sup anymore. This update would have been

the destination represents. For IP:
- Iff it is a host route, RTF_LOCAL and RTF_BROADCAST indicate local
(belongs to this host) and broadcast addresses, respectively.
- For all routes, RTF_MULTICAST is set if the destination is multicast.
The RTF_BROADCAST flag is used by ip_output() to eliminate a call to
in_broadcast() in a common case; this gives about 1% in our packet-generation
experiments. All three flags might be used (although they aren't now)
to determine whether a packet can be forwarded; a given host route can
represent a forwardable address if:
(rt->rt_flags & (RTF_HOST | RTF_LOCAL | RTF_BROADCAST | RTF_MULTICAST))
== RTF_HOST
Obviously, one still has to do all the work if a host route is not present,
but this code allows one to cache the results of such a lookup if rtalloc1()
is called without masking RTF_PRCLONING.

This is a bulk mport of Mike's IPX/SPX protocol stacks and all the
related gunf that goes with it..
it is not guaranteed to work 100% correctly at this time
but as we had several people trying to work on it
I figured it would be better to get it checked in so
they could all get teh same thing to work on..
Mikes been using it for a year or so
but on 2.0
more changes and stuff will be merged in from other developers now that this is in.

rt_output functionality can just lazily use if_output until customized

This will be yet another incompatible change in your route-using binaries.
I apologize, but this was the only way to do it. I took this opportunity
to increase the size of the metrics to what I believe will be the final
length for 2.1, so that when the T/TCP stuff is done, this won't happen
again.

rtalloc1() to allow for any interface flags to be ignored; currently
this is only useful for RTF_PRCLONING. Get rid of rt_prflags and re-unite
with rt_flags. Add T/TCP ``route metrics''.
NB: YOU MUST RECOMPILE `route' AND OTHER RELATED PROGRAMS AS A RESULT OF
THIS CHANGE.
This also adds a new interface parameter, `ifi_physical', which will
eventually replace IFF_ALTPHYS as the mechanism for specifying the
particular physical connection desired on a multiple-connection card.
NB: YOU MUST RECOMPILE `ifconfig' AND OTHER RELATED PROGRAMS AS A RESULT OF
THIS CHANGE.
NB: You will have to recompile programs which use the `rt_use' member in
order to get the correct values. This should not cause incorrect operation,
but the statistics may look a little confusing.
