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.

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.)
- don't declare `struct arpcom' except in the kernel, so that there is no
dependency on <net/if.h> except in the kernel. This may break something
else.
- spell ETHER_ADDR_LEN as 6 again, so that there is no dependency on
<net/ethernet.h> even in the kernel.
This will not make any of object files that LINT create change; there
might be differences with INET disabled, but hardly anything compiled
before without INET anyway. Now the 'obvious' things will give a
proper error if compiled without inet - ipx_ip, ipfw, tcp_debug. The
only thing that _should_ work (but can't be made to compile reasonably
easily) is sppp :-(
This commit move struct arpcom from <netinet/if_ether.h> to
<net/if_arp.h>.
In sppp_chap_input:
1) in the CHAP_CHALLENGE case don't output the peer's name if it is not
what we expected (DEBUG) since it will be printed out in the course
of events anyway.
2) in the CHAP_SUCCESS case test whether the peer is required to
authenticate himself [(sp->lcp.opts & (1 << LCP_OPT_AUTH_PROTO))],
otherwise the state machine may never switch into the network state.
I saw this case against 2 different ISPs; they never bothered to
authenticate themselves to me.
In sppp_pap_input:
in the PAP_ACK case do the same as in 2) above for the same reason.
The #ifdef IPXIP in netipx/ipx_if.h is OK (used from ipx_usrreq.c and
ifconfig.c only).
I also fixed a typo IPXTUNNEL -> IPTUNNEL (and #ifdef'ed out the code
inside, as it never could have compiled - doh.)
Fixed nonblocking mode. It was per-device instead of per-file. This
also fixes clobbering of bd_rtout by overloading it to hold a wrong
version of the blocking flag. I hope nothing depends on the bugs.
Testing in if_ppp.c is good enough.
Added comments about bogus #includes and #defines.
Removed unused #includes.
Don't depend on gcc's misfeature of rewriting short args in old-style
function definitions to match wrong prototypes. I just changed the
function definition to match the prototype, since this is easy to
verify automatically (it causes no changes in the object code), but
it breaks K&R1 support and doesn't fix the pessimal type.
Use gettime() instead of microtime() to set if_lastchange for i/o's.
microtime() is probably too expensive. However, setting if_lastchange
for i/o's may be wrong.
volatile to use outside of splclock(). microtime() is probably too
expensive to use for every i/o. However, setting ifi_lastchange for
every i/o is just wrong according to the comment about ifi_lastchange
in <net/if.h>. It is set then for atm, fddi and the latest version
of ppp.)
Some of these changes are a bit rough and will become
more polished later. the changes to if_ethersubr should largely be moved
to within the appletalk code, but that will happen later.
A few of these were related to network-byteorder problems,
and more were related to loopback failures.
Distribute all but the most fundamental malloc types. This time I also
remembered the trick to making things static: Put "static" in front of
them.

Introduce the SIOC[SG]IFGENERIC hooks that can be used to pass an
arbritrary ioctl subcommand into an interface driver. Surprisingly
enough, there was no provision for this already present (except of the
option of abusing SIOC[SG]IFMEDIA for this).
The idea is that an interface driver can establish ioctl subcommands
of its own that can't be meaningfully interpreted by the upper layer
interface ioctl function. Something like this is required to
implement a clean solution of passing down things like CHAP secrets or
PPP options to the /sys/net/if_sppp* files. (Yes, my CHAP is now
finally working with it, but i gotta update my kernel to the new
callout interface before being able to commit _that_.)
