ifconfig, essentially stealing the lease until the user goes and changes
it. The alternative, sadly, is total dysfunction since bpf isn't in
GENERIC and network connectivity would otherwise fail completely on first
bootup when DHCP configuration was attempted again.
The ultimate answer here is to make either bpf a loadable kernel module
(which security conscious admins will be able to simply remove from /modules)
or come up with a lighter weight mechanism just for dhcp and other apps that
need to see broadcast packets but not otherwise sniff the wire in full
bpf glory.
Restore default SIGHUP, SIGCHLD and SIGALRM handlers in forked inetd
processes. This happens to work around the fact that hosts_access()
doesn't (but should) set SIG_IGN as the handler for SIGCHLD while it
handles the spawn option, but it would make sense even if that were
not true.
This does not address the leaking descriptors issue discussed on the
same PR.

in some code from C. Stone to parse the lease information. This is still
a WIP and this commit is largely intended to allow others to sync up; the
dhclient code still only works when doing dhcp configuration post-install
and requires a bit more work on the boot floppy before it will truly
work in the minimal bootstrapping role.
incarnated, it just matches other deficiencies related to crunchgen
and friends... and we already have similar code in ppp/Makefile.
RELEASE_CRUNCH should be axed, but for now let's be consistent.

userland code. Using apmd.conf, the apmd(8) configuration file, you
can select the APM events to be handled from userland and specify the
commands for a given event, allowing APM behaviour to be configured
flexibly.

gigabit ethernet adapters. This includes two single port cards
(single mode and multimode fiber) and two dual port cards (also single
mode and multimode fiber). SysKonnect is currently the only
vendor with a dual port gigabit ethernet NIC.
The ports on dual port adapters are treated as separate network
interfaces. Thus, if you have an SK-9844 dual port SX card, you
should have both sk0 and sk1 interfaces attached. Dual port cards
are implemented using two XMAC II chips connected to a single
SysKonnect GEnesis controller. Hence, dual port cards are really
one PCI device, as opposed to two separate PCI devices connected
through a PCI to PCI bridge. Note that SysKonnect's drivers use
the two ports for failover purposes rather that as two separate
interfaces, plus they don't support jumbo frames. This applies to
their Linux driver too. :)
Support is provided for hardware multicast filtering, BPF and
jumbo frames. The SysKonnect cards support TCP checksum offload
however this feature is not currently enabled (hopefully it will
be once we get checksum offload support).
There are still a few things that need to be implemeted, like
the ability to communicate with the on-board LM80 voltage/temperature
monitor, but I wanted to get the driver under CVS control and into
-current so people could bang on it.
A big thanks for SysKonnect for making all their programming info
for these cards (and for their FDDI and token ring cards) available
without NDA (see www.syskonnect.com).
