1. separating L2 tables (ARP, NDP) from the L3 routing tables
2. removing as much locking dependencies among these layers as
possible to allow for some parallelism in the search operations
3. simplify the logic in the routing code,
The most notable end result is the obsolescent of the route
cloning (RTF_CLONING) concept, which translated into code reduction
in both IPv4 ARP and IPv6 NDP related modules, and size reduction in
struct rtentry{}. The change in design obsoletes the semantics of
RTF_CLONING, RTF_WASCLONE and RTF_LLINFO routing flags. The userland
applications such as "arp" and "ndp" have been modified to reflect
those changes. The output from "netstat -r" shows only the routing
entries.
Quite a few developers have contributed to this project in the
past: Glebius Smirnoff, Luigi Rizzo, Alessandro Cerri, and
Andre Oppermann. And most recently:
- Kip Macy revised the locking code completely, thus completing
the last piece of the puzzle, Kip has also been conducting
active functional testing
- Sam Leffler has helped me improving/refactoring the code, and
provided valuable reviews
- Julian Elischer setup the perforce tree for me and has helped
me maintaining that branch before the svn conversion
'get'. Since rtmsg() always gets called and returns 0 on success and -1
on failure, it's possible to exit with a suitable exit code by calling
exit(ret != 0) instead, as is done at the end of newroute().

command would add incorrect routing entries if network numbers weren't
fully "spelled" out according to their class. For example:
# route add 128.0/16 (works)
# route add 128/16 (doesn't work)
# route add 193.0.0/24 (works)
# route add 193/24 (doesn't work)
Also, rework the way a netmask is deduced from network number if
it [netmask] is not specified.

root is allowed to create raw sockets, then they will be able to create
routing sockets, too. However prison-root is not able to manipulate
routing tables. So when route(8) attempts to write to a routing
socket and recieves EPERM from the kernel, exit rather than moving

a non-point-to-point interface as the gateway. One might, for
example, use this to route some hosts through an ARP on a local

critical problem after the snap was out were fixed.
There are many many changes since last KAME merge.
TODO:
- The definitions of SADB_* in sys/net/pfkeyv2.h are still different
from RFC2407/IANA assignment because of binary compatibility
issue. It should be fixed under 5-CURRENT.
- ip6po_m member of struct ip6_pktopts is no longer used. But, it
is still there because of binary compatibility issue. It should
