This define enables the code to ALWAYS run the 8254 timer thru the 8259 ICU.
It is ON by default.
It depricates the usage of "options SMP_TIMER_NC" in the config file.
the hostname into. In theory the bind library should do this, but
in practice the limites between system defines and bind defines make
an attack using this vector possible. These patches have been in
use on my systems for three months now, so I am fairly confident about
them. I plan on commiting this to 2.2 and 2.1 in the near future,
as well as many other patches of this nature.
This isn't necessarily the best statistic, but it is by far the easiest to
calculate. Update the man page to be more explicit about precisely which
statistics are printed out. Revert some of jmg's bogus man page changes from
rev 1.11.
1/ is compatible with the old route(1) in case needed.
2/ actually fixes the problem while vetting bad user input.
note: I have already fixed route(1) so the problem shouldn't occur.
if it does. use 0.0.0.0/0 instead of the word 'default' :)
The answer is not really, but almost.
it sent data that was ok, though it was a hack,
but it was bug-compatible with the kernel on receiving them. This also
had been fixed with a hack.. I hacked it better I think.
lifetime of the call, just like the old implementation did. Previously,
we were only eating them if the application did not call sleep()/usleep()
with SIGALRM masked.
Submitted by: ache
to do with netmasks.. we fed totally bogus data into the kernel
to do with default routes and it just believed us. this led to:
1/ kernel panics
2/ the default route refusing to be deleted or added
(depending on a number of factors, usually it worked ok.)
1) Make sure that the region mapped by a 4MB page is
properly aligned.
2) Don't turn on the PG_G flag in locore for SMP. I plan
to do that later in startup anyway.
3) Make sure the 2nd processor has PSE enabled, so that 4MB
pages don't hose it.
We don't use PG_G yet on SMP -- there is work to be done to make that
work correctly. It isn't that important anyway...
We need to accept at least one sockaddr with zero length, in order
to be able to set the default route.

of the kernel, and also most of the dynamic parts of the kernel. Additionally,
4MB pages will be allocated for display buffers as appropriate (only.)
The 4MB support for SMP isn't complete, but doesn't interfere with operation
either.
