bpf will see inner and outer headers or just inner or outer
headers for incoming and outgoing IPsec packets.
This is useful in bpf to not have over long lines for debugging
or selcting packets based on the inner headers.
It also properly defines the behavior of what the firewalls see.
Last but not least it gives you if_enc(4) for IPv6 as well.

2) Alter packet flow inside dummynet: allow certain packets to bypass
dummynet scheduler. Benefits are:
- lower latency: if packet flow does not exceed pipe bandwidth, packets
will not be (up to tick) delayed (due to dummynet's scheduler granularity).
- lower overhead: if packet avoids dummynet scheduler it shouldn't reenter ip
stack later. Such packets can be fastforwarded.
- recursion (which can lead to kernel stack exhaution) eliminated. This fix
long existed panic, which can be triggered this way:
kldload dummynet
sysctl net.inet.ip.fw.one_pass=0
ipfw pipe 1 config bw 0
for i in `jot 30`; do ipfw add 1 pipe 1 icmp from any to any; done
ping -c 1 localhost
3) Three new sysctl nodes are added:
net.inet.ip.dummynet.io_pkt - packets passed to dummynet
net.inet.ip.dummynet.io_pkt_fast - packets avoided dummynet scheduler
net.inet.ip.dummynet.io_pkt_drop - packets dropped by dummynet
P.S. Above comments are true only for layer 3 packets. Layer 2 packet flow
is not changed yet.

a private softc list is needed neither for tracking clones in general
nor for destroying all clones before the module unload -- if_clone
takes care of all that. (Note that some other interface drivers do
need a softc list to be able to scan it for their private purposes.)
from Mac OS X Leopard--rationalize naming for entry points to
the following general forms:
mac_<object>_<method/action>
mac_<object>_check_<method/action>
The previous naming scheme was inconsistent and mostly
reversed from the new scheme. Also, make object types more
consistent and remove spaces from object types that contain
multiple parts ("posix_sem" -> "posixsem") to make mechanical
parsing easier. Introduce a new "netinet" object type for
certain IPv4/IPv6-related methods. Also simplify, slightly,
some entry point names.
All MAC policy modules will need to be recompiled, and modules
not updates as part of this commit will need to be modified to
conform to the new KPI.

Specifically, if two threads were doing concurrent lookups and the existing
gateway was marked down, the the first thread would drop a reference on the
gateway route and then unlock the "root" route while it tried to allocate
a new route. The second thread could then also drop a reference on the
same gateway route resulting in a reference underflow. Fix this by
clearing the gateway route pointer after dropping the reference count but
before dropping the lock. Secondly, in this same case, the second thread
would overwrite the gateway route pointer w/o free'ing a reference to the
route installed by the first thread. In practice this would probably just
fix a lost reference that would result in a route never being freed.
This fixes panics observed in rt_check() and rtexpunge().

how the frame was input (prepended Ethernet header tag or stripped HW mflag).
Now the vlan Ethernet header is _always_ stripped in ether_input and the mbuf
flagged, only only network cards with VLAN_HWTAGGING enabled would properly
re-tag any outgoing vlan frames.
If the outgoing interface does not support hardware tagging then readd the vlan
header to the front of the frame. Move the common vlan encapsulation in to
ether_vlanencap().
