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

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.

Don't depend on gcc's misfeature of rewriting short args in old-style

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.

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

This commit includes the following changes:
1) Old-style (pr_usrreq()) protocols are no longer supported, the compatibility
glue for them is deleted, and the kernel will panic on boot if any are compiled
in.
2) Certain protocol entry points are modified to take a process structure,
so they they can easily tell whether or not it is possible to sleep, and
also to access credentials.
3) SS_PRIV is no more, and with it goes the SO_PRIVSTATE setsockopt()
call. Protocols should use the process pointer they are now passed.
4) The PF_LOCAL and PF_ROUTE families have been updated to use the new
style, as has the `raw' skeleton family.
5) PF_LOCAL sockets now obey the process's umask when creating a socket

This is a patch to sys/net/if.c. What it does is patch the algorithm
