Add a note next to fields in network format.
The n_* types are not enough for compiler checks on endianness, and their
use often requires an otherwise unnecessary #include <netinet/in_systm.h>
The typedef in in_systm.h are still there.
for virtualization.
Instead of initializing the affected global variables at instatiation,
assign initial values to them in initializer functions. As a rule,
initialization at instatiation for such variables should never be
introduced again from now on. Furthermore, enclose all instantiations
of such global variables in #ifdef VIMAGE_GLOBALS blocks.
Essentialy, this change should have zero functional impact. In the next
phase of merging network stack virtualization infrastructure from
p4/vimage branch, the new initialization methology will allow us to
switch between using global variables and their counterparts residing in
virtualization containers with minimum code churn, and in the long run
allow us to intialize multiple instances of such container structures.

Use this to allow ipfw to pullup only these values since it does not use
the rest of the packet and it was failed on ICMP packets because they
were not long enough.
struct icmp should probably be modified to use these at some point, but
that will break a fair bit of code so it can wait for another day.
On the off chance that adding this struct breaks something in ports,
bump __FreeBSD_version.

tcp_ctlinput() and subject it to active tcpcb and sequence
number checking. Previously any ICMP unreachable/needfrag
message would cause an update to the TCP hostcache. Now only
ICMP PMTU messages belonging to an active TCP session with
the correct src/dst/port and sequence number will update the
hostcache and complete the path MTU discovery process.
Note that we don't entirely implement the recommended counter
measures of Section 7.2 of the paper. However we close down
the possible degradation vector from trivially easy to really
complex and resource intensive. In addition we have limited
the smallest acceptable MTU with net.inet.tcp.minmss sysctl
for some time already, further reducing the effect of any
degradation due to an attack.

Remove the never completed _IP_VHL version, it has not caught on
anywhere and it would make us incompatible with other BSD netstacks
to retain this version.
Add a CTASSERT protecting sizeof(struct ip) == 20.
Don't let the size of struct ipq depend on the IPDIVERT option.

This will make a number of things easier in the future, as well as (finally!)
avoiding the Id-smashing problem which has plagued developers for so long.
Boy, I'm glad we're not using sup anymore. This update would have been
insane otherwise.
