lookup {dst-ip|src-ip|dst-port|src-port|uid|jail} N
which searches the specified field in table N and sets tablearg
accordingly.
With dst-ip or src-ip the option replicates two existing options.
When used with other arguments, the option can be useful to
quickly dispatch traffic based on other fields.

it seems that now it is necessary for 'forward' to work outside lo0.
The bug (and fix) was reported on 8.0. This patch probably applies
to RELENG_7 as well.
It seems that 'pf' has a similar bug.

pipes, queues, tags, rule numbers and so on.
These are all different namespaces, and the only thing they have in
common is the fact they use a 16-bit slot to represent the argument.
There is some confusion in the code, mostly for historical reasons,
on how the values 0 and 65535 should be used. At the moment, 0 is
forbidden almost everywhere, while 65535 is used to represent a
'tablearg' argument, i.e. the result of the most recent table() lookup.
For now, try to use explicit constants for the min and max allowed
values, and do not overload the default rule number for that.
Also, make the MTAG_IPFW declaration only visible to the kernel.
NOTE: I think the issue needs to be revisited before 8.0 is out:
the 2^16 namespace limit for rule numbers and pipe/queue is
annoying, and we can easily bump the limit to 2^32 which gives
a lot more flexibility in partitioning the namespace.

types of MAC overheads such as preambles, link level retransmissions
and more.
Note- this commit changes the userland/kernel ABI for pipes
(but not for ordinary firewall rules) so you need to rebuild
kernel and /sbin/ipfw to use dummynet features.
Please check the manpage for details on the new feature.
The MFC would be trivial but it breaks the ABI, so it will
be postponed until after 7.2 is released.
Interested users are welcome to apply the patch manually
to their RELENG_7 tree.

Usual moving of code with no changes from ipfw2.c to the
newly created files, and addition of prototypes to ipfw2.h
I have added forward declarations for ipfw_insn_* in ipfw2.h
to avoid a global dependency on ip_fw.h
In this episode:
- introduce a common header with a minimal set of common definitions;
- bring the main() function and options parser in main.c
- rename the main functions with an ipfw_ prefix
No code changes except for the introduction of a global variable,
resvd_set_number, which stores the RESVD_SET value from ip_fw.h
and is used to remove the dependency of main.c from ip_fw.h
(and the subtree of dependencies) for just a single constant.
program name, and ignore that entry. ipfw2.c code instead skips
this entry and starts with options at offset 0, relying on a more
tolerant implementation of the library.
This change fixes the issue by always passing a program name
in the first entry to getopt. The motivation for this change
is to remove a potential compatibility issue should we use
a different getopt() implementation in the future.
No functional changes.

There are still several signed/unsigned warnings left, which
require a bit more study for a proper fix.
This file has grown beyond reasonable limits.
We really need to split it into separate components (ipv4, ipv6,
dummynet, nat, table, userland-kernel communication ...) so we can
make mainteinance easier.
