It controls if the system is to accept source routed packets.
It used to be such that, no matter if the setting of net.inet.ip.sourceroute,
source routed packets destined at us would be accepted. Now it is
controllable with eth default set to NOT accept those.
This means that a FreeBSD will only forward source routed packets
when both net.inet.ip.forwarding and net.inet.ip.sourceroute are set
to 1.
You can hit me now ;-)

close small security hole where an atacker could sendpackets with
IPDIVERT protocol, and select how it would be diverted thus bypassing
the ipfirewall. Discovered by inspection rather than attack.
(you'd have to know how the firewall was configured (EXACTLY) to
make use of this but..)
hope i've found out all files that actually depend on this dependancy.
IMHO, it's not very good practice to change the size of internal
structs depending on kernel options.
these are quite extensive additions to the ipfw code.
they include a change to the API because the old method was
broken, but the user view is kept the same.
The new code allows a particular match to skip forward to a particular
line number, so that blocks of rules can be
used without checking all the intervening rules.
There are also many more ways of rejecting
connections especially TCP related, and
many many more ...
see the man page for a complete description.
to fill in the nfs_diskless structure, at the cost of some kernel
bloat. The advantage is that this code works on a wider range of
network adapters than netboot. Several new kernel options are
documented in LINT.
Obtained from: parts of the code comes from NetBSD.
affect programs that sit on top of divert(4) sockets. The
multicast routing code already unconditionally zeros the sum
before recalculating.
Any code that unconditionaly sums a packet without first zeroing
the sum (assuming that it's already zero'd) will break. No such
code seems to exist.
set it in the first place, independent of whether sin->sin_port
is set.
The result is that diverted packets that are being forwarded
will be diverted once and only once on the way in (ip_input())
and again, once and only once on the way out (ip_output()) -
twice in total. ICMP packets that don't contain a port will
now also be diverted.
This will make a number of things easier in the future, as well as (finally!)
avoiding the Id-smashing problem which has plagued developers for so long.
Boy, I'm glad we're not using sup anymore. This update would have been
insane otherwise.
to TAILQs. Fix places which referenced these for no good reason
that I can see (the references remain, but were fixed to compile
again; they are still questionable).
using a sockaddr_dl.
Fix the other packet-information socket options (SO_TIMESTAMP, IP_RECVDSTADDR)
to work for multicast UDP and raw sockets as well. (They previously only
worked for unicast UDP).
This stuff should not be too destructive if the IPDIVERT is not compiled in..
be aware that this changes the size of the ip_fw struct
so ipfw needs to be recompiled to use it.. more changes coming to clean this up.
gcc only inlines memcpy()'s whose count is constant and didn't inline
these. I want memcpy() in the kernel go away so that it's obvious that
it doesn't need to be optimized. Now it is only used for one struct
copy in si.c.
Close the ip-fragment hole.
Waste less memory.
Rewrite to contemporary more readable style.
Kill separate IPACCT facility, use "accept" rules in IPFIREWALL.
Filter incoming >and< outgoing packets.
Replace "policy" by sticky "deny all" rule.
Rules have numbers used for ordering and deletion.
Remove "rerorder" code entirely.
Count packet & bytecount matches for rules.
Code in -current & -stable is now the same.
to enable IP forwarding, use sysctl(8). Also did the same for IPX,
which involved inventing a completely new MIB from whole cloth (which
I may not quite have correct); be aware of this if you use IPX forwarding.
(The two should never have been controlled by the same option anyway.)
net.inet.ip.intr-queue-maxlen (=== ipintrq.ifq_maxlen)
and net.inet.ip.intr-queue-drops (=== ipintrq.ifq_drops)
There should probably be a standard way of getting the same information
going the other way.
there may even be LKMs.) Also, change the internal name of `unixdomain'
to `localdomain' since AF_LOCAL is now the preferred name of this family.
Declare netisr correctly and in the right place.
high load:
1) If there ever get to be more than net.inet.ip.rtmaxcache entries
in the cache, in_rtqtimo() will reduce net.inet.ip.rtexpire by
1/3 and do another round, unles net.inet.ip.rtexpire is less than
net.inet.ip.rtminexpire, and never more than once in ten minutes
(rtq_timeout).
2) If net.inet.ip.rtexpire is set to zero, don't bother to cache
anything.
1) Firewall is not subdivided on forwarding / blocking chains
anymore.Actually only one chain left-it was the blocking one.
2) LKM support.ip_fwdef.c is function pointers definition and
goes into kernel along with all INET stuff.
to something more recent than the ancient 1.2 release contained in
4.4. This code has the following advantages as compared to
previous versions (culled from the README file for the SunOS release):
- True multicast delivery
- Configurable rate-limiting of forwarded multicast traffic on each
physical interface or tunnel, using a token-bucket limiter.
- Simplistic classification of packets for prioritized dropping.
- Administrative scoping of multicast address ranges.
- Faster detection of hosts leaving groups.
- Support for multicast traceroute (code not yet available).
- Support for RSVP, the Resource Reservation Protocol.
What still needs to be done:
- The multicast forwarder needs testing.
- The multicast routing daemon needs to be ported.
- Network interface drivers need to have the `#ifdef MULTICAST' goop ripped
out of them.
- The IGMP code should probably be bogon-tested.
Some notes about the porting process:
In some cases, the Berkeley people decided to incorporate functionality from
later releases of the multicast code, but then had to do things differently.
As a result, if you look at Deering's patches, and then look at
our code, it is not always obvious whether the patch even applies. Let
the reader beware.
I ran ip_mroute.c through several passes of `unifdef' to get rid of
useless grot, and to permanently enable the RSVP support, which we will
include as standard.

- Delete redundant declarations.
- Add -Wredundant-declarations to Makefile.i386 so they don't come back.
- Delete sloppy COMMON-style declarations of uninitialized data in
header files.
- Add a few prototypes.
- Clean up warnings resulting from the above.
NB: ioconf.c will still generate a redundant-declaration warning, which
is unavoidable unless somebody volunteers to make `config' smarter.
