A route generated from an RTF_CLONING route had the RTF_WASCLONED flag
set but did not have a reference to the parent route, as documented in
the rtentry(9) manpage. This prevented such routes from being deleted
when their parent route is deleted.
Now, for example, if you delete an IP address from a network interface,
all ARP entries that were cloned from this interface route are flushed.
This also has an impact on netstat(1) output. Previously, dynamically
created ARP cache entries (RTF_STATIC flag is unset) were displayed as
part of the routing table display (-r). Now, they are only printed if
the -a option is given.
netinet/in.c, netinet/in_rmx.c:
When address is removed from an interface, also delete all routes that
point to this interface and address. Previously, for example, if you
changed the address on an interface, outgoing IP datagrams might still
use the old address. The only solution was to delete and re-add some
routes. (The problem is easily observed with the route(8) command.)
Note, that if the socket was already bound to the local address before
this address is removed, new datagrams generated from this socket will
still be sent from the old address.

Teach the IPv4 and IPv6 input/output routines to log packets/bytes
against the network address connected to the flow.
Teach netstat to display the per-address stats for IP protocols
when 'netstat -i' is evoked, instead of displaying the per-interface
stats.
that should be better.
The old code counted references to mbuf clusters by using the offset
of the cluster from the start of memory allocated for mbufs and
clusters as an index into an array of chars, which did the reference
counting. If the external storage was not a cluster then reference
counting had to be done by the code using that external storage.
NetBSD's system of linked lists of mbufs was cosidered, but Alfred
felt it would have locking issues when the kernel was made more
SMP friendly.
The system implimented uses a pool of unions to track external
storage. The union contains an int for counting the references and
a pointer for forming a free list. The reference counts are
incremented and decremented atomically and so should be SMP friendly.
This system can track reference counts for any sort of external
storage.
Access to the reference counting stuff is now through macros defined
in mbuf.h, so it should be easier to make changes to the system in
the future.
The possibility of storing the reference count in one of the
referencing mbufs was considered, but was rejected 'cos it would
often leave extra mbufs allocated. Storing the reference count in
the cluster was also considered, but because the external storage
may not be a cluster this isn't an option.
The size of the pool of reference counters is available in the
stats provided by "netstat -m".
