4.1.4. Experimental Protocol
A system should not implement an experimental protocol unless it
is participating in the experiment and has coordinated its use of
the protocol with the developer of the protocol.

another specialized mbuf type in the process. Also clean up some
of the cruft surrounding IPFW, multicast routing, RSVP, and other
ill-explored corners.
several new features are added:
- support vc/vp shaping
- support pvc shadow interface
code cleanup:
- remove WMAYBE related code. ENI WMAYBE DMA doen't work.
- remove updating if_lastchange for every packet.
- BPF related code is moved to midway.c as it should be.
(bpfwrite should work if atm_pseudohdr and LLC/SNAP are
prepended.)
- BPF link type is changed to DLT_ATM_RFC1483.
BPF now understands only LLC/SNAP!! (because bpf can't
handle variable link header length.)
It is recommended to use LLC/SNAP instead of NULL
encapsulation for various reasons. (BPF, IPv6,
interoperability, etc.)
the code has been used for months in ALTQ and KAME IPv6.
OKed by phk long time ago.
`len = min(so->so_snd.sb_cc, win) - off;'. min() has type u_int
and `off' has type int, so when min() is 0 and `off' is 1, the RHS
overflows to 0U - 1 = UINT_MAX. `len' has type long, so when
sizeof(long) == sizeof(int), the LHS normally overflows to to the
correct value of -1, but when sizeof(long) > sizeof(int), the LHS
is UINT_MAX.
Fixed some u_long's that should have been fixed-sized types.
mismatches exposed by this (the prototype for tcp_respond() didn't
match the function definition lexically, and still depends on a
gcc feature to match if ints have more than 32 bits).
Any packet that can be matched by a ipfw rule can be redirected
transparently to another port or machine. Redirection to another port
mostly makes sense with tcp, where a session can be set up
between a proxy and an unsuspecting client. Redirection to another machine
requires that the other machine also be expecting to receive the forwarded
packets, as their headers will not have been modified.
/sbin/ipfw must be recompiled!!!

Remove lots'o'hacks.
looutput is now static.
Other callers who want to use loopback to allow shortcutting
should call the special entrypoint for this, if_simloop(), which is
specifically designed for this purpose. Using looutput for this purpose
was problematic, particularly with bpf and trying to keep track
of whether one should be using the charateristics of the loopback interface
or the interface (e.g. if_ethersubr.c) that was requesting the loopback.
There was a whole class of errors due to this mis-use each of which had
hacks to cover them up.
Consists largly of hack removal :-)
or unsigned int (this doesn't change the struct layout, size or
alignment in any of the files changed in this commit, at least for
gcc on i386's. Using bitfields of type u_char may affect size and
alignment but not packing)).
ifdef tangle. The previous commit to ip_fil.h didn't change the
one that actually applies to the current FreeBSD kernel, of course.
Fixed.
Fixed style bugs in previous commit to ip_fil.h.
FreeBSD/alpha. The most significant item is to change the command
argument to ioctl functions from int to u_long. This change brings us
inline with various other BSD versions. Driver writers may like to
use (__FreeBSD_version == 300003) to detect this change.
The prototype FreeBSD/alpha machdep will follow in a couple of days
time.
