f0184ff8e3 Fix GCC warnings caused by initializing a zero length array. In the process,
simply things a bit by getting rid of 'struct ng_parse_struct_info' which
was useless because it only contained one field.

e519ede348 Make the sample netgraph node compileable again.
Makes it easier for people if they can start with something
that actually compiles.

1acb27c64a Implement direct support for semipersistant nodes.
(e.g. ethernet nodes are persistent until you rip out the hardware)
Use this support in the ethernet and sample nodes.
Add some more abstraction on the 'item's so that  node and
hook reference counting can be checked easier.
Slight man page correction.
Make pppoe type dependent on ethernet type.
Clean up node shutdown a little.
Move a mutex from MTX_SPIN to MTX_DEF (oops)
Fix small ref-counting bug.
remove warning on one2many type.

30400f03aa Part 2 of the netgraph rewrite.
This is mostly cosmetic changes, (though I caught a bug or two while
makeing them)

069154d55f Rewrite of netgraph to start getting ready for SMP.
This version is functional and is aproaching solid..
notice I said APROACHING. There are many node types I cannot test
I have tested: echo hole ppp socket vjc iface tee bpf async tty
The rest compile and "Look" right.  More changes to follow.
DEBUGGING is enabled in this code to help if people have problems.

589f6ed8ce Divorce the kernel binary ABI version number from the message
format version number. (userland programs should not need to be
recompiled when the netgraph kernel internal ABI is changed.

Also fix modules that don;t handle the fact that a caller may not supply
a return message pointer. (benign at the moment because the calling code
checks, but that will change)

This clears out my outstanding netgraph changes.
There is a netgraph change of design in the offing and this is to some
extent a superset of soem of the new functionality and some of the old
functionality that may be removed.

This code works as before, but allows some new features that I want to
work with and evaluate. It is the basis for a version of netgraph
with integral locking for SMP use.

This is running on my test machine with no new problems :-)

65b9a0da90 Allocate all memory (including within node constructors) with M_NOWAIT
instead of M_WAITOK, to allow for maximum flexibility.

a4ec03cfa8 Two simple changes to the kernel internal API for netgraph modules,
to support future work in flow-control and 'packet reject/replace'
processing modes.

f8307e1233 Add two new generic control messages, NGM_ASCII2BINARY and
NGM_BINARY2ASCII, which convert control messages to ASCII and back.
This allows control messages to be sent and received in ASCII form
using ngctl(8), which makes ngctl a lot more useful.

This also allows all the type-specific debugging code in libnetgraph
to go away -- instead, we just ask the node itself to do the ASCII
translation for us.

Currently, all generic control messages are supported, as well as
messages associated with the following node types: async, cisco,
ksocket, and ppp.

See /usr/share/examples/netgraph/ngctl for an example of using this.

Also give ngctl(8) the ability to print out incoming data and
control messages at any time.  Eventually nghook(8) may be subsumed.

Several other misc. bug fixes.

25792ef324 Change the prototype of the strto* routines to make the second
parameter a char ** instead of a const char **.  This make these
kernel routines consistent with the corresponding libc userland
routines.

Which is actually 'correct' is debatable, but consistency and
following the spec was deemed more important in this case.
