Bruce M Simpson 71498f308b Import rewrite of IPv4 socket multicast layer to support source-specific
and protocol-independent host mode multicast. The code is written to
accomodate IPv6, IGMPv3 and MLDv2 with only a little additional work.

This change only pertains to FreeBSD's use as a multicast end-station and
does not concern multicast routing; for an IGMPv3/MLDv2 router
implementation, consider the XORP project.

The work is based on Wilbert de Graaf's IGMPv3 code drop for FreeBSD 4.6,
which is available at: http://www.kloosterhof.com/wilbert/igmpv3.html

Summary
 * IPv4 multicast socket processing is now moved out of ip_output.c
   into a new module, in_mcast.c.
 * The in_mcast.c module implements the IPv4 legacy any-source API in
   terms of the protocol-independent source-specific API.
 * Source filters are lazy allocated as the common case does not use them.
   They are part of per inpcb state and are covered by the inpcb lock.
 * struct ip_mreqn is now supported to allow applications to specify
   multicast joins by interface index in the legacy IPv4 any-source API.
 * In UDP, an incoming multicast datagram only requires that the source
   port matches the 4-tuple if the socket was already bound by source port.
   An unbound socket SHOULD be able to receive multicasts sent from an
   ephemeral source port.
 * The UDP socket multicast filter mode defaults to exclusive, that is,
   sources present in the per-socket list will be blocked from delivery.
 * The RFC 3678 userland functions have been added to libc: setsourcefilter,
   getsourcefilter, setipv4sourcefilter, getipv4sourcefilter.
 * Definitions for IGMPv3 are merged but not yet used.
 * struct sockaddr_storage is now referenced from <netinet/in.h>. It
   is therefore defined there if not already declared in the same way
   as for the C99 types.
 * The RFC 1724 hack (specify 0.0.0.0/8 addresses to IP_MULTICAST_IF
   which are then interpreted as interface indexes) is now deprecated.
 * A patch for the Rhyolite.com routed in the FreeBSD base system
   is available in the -net archives. This only affects individuals
   running RIPv1 or RIPv2 via point-to-point and/or unnumbered interfaces.
 * Make IPv6 detach path similar to IPv4's in code flow; functionally same.
 * Bump __FreeBSD_version to 700048; see UPDATING.

This is the top level of the FreeBSD source directory.  This file
was last revised on:
$FreeBSD$

For copyright information, please see the file COPYRIGHT in this
directory (additional copyright information also exists for some
sources in this tree - please see the specific source directories for
more information).

The Makefile in this directory supports a number of targets for
building components (or all) of the FreeBSD source tree, the most
commonly used one being ``world'', which rebuilds and installs
everything in the FreeBSD system from the source tree except the
kernel, the kernel-modules and the contents of /etc.  The ``world''
target should only be used in cases where the source tree has not
changed from the currently running version.  See:
http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/makeworld.html
for more information, including setting make(1) variables.

The ``buildkernel'' and ``installkernel'' targets build and install
the kernel and the modules (see below).  Please see the top of
the Makefile in this directory for more information on the
standard build targets and compile-time flags.

Building a kernel is a somewhat more involved process, documentation
for which can be found at:
   http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/kernelconfig.html
And in the config(8) man page.
Note: If you want to build and install the kernel with the
``buildkernel'' and ``installkernel'' targets, you might need to build
world before.  More information is available in the handbook.

The sample kernel configuration files reside in the sys/<arch>/conf
sub-directory (assuming that you've installed the kernel sources), the
file named GENERIC being the one used to build your initial installation
kernel.  The file NOTES contains entries and documentation for all possible
devices, not just those commonly used.  It is the successor of the ancient
LINT file, but in contrast to LINT, it is not buildable as a kernel but a
pure reference and documentation file.
