stats provided by bpf(4). This program will live in tools/ for now
until we figure out where it will live permanently. Based on some

this functionality to netstat(1) at some point.
The overall idea is to get a single build script which will not need
editing, but instead overrides and changes happen by config files passed
as arguments.

way statistics are now measured. Reproduce with some amount of

accept NUL-terminated strings as required by RFC 2132.
This solution is not perfect as it removes the ability to send
NUL-terminated host-name options which may be required by some broken
servers. Given the current lack of an existance proof of such servers
and the fact that servers that send NUL-terminated domain names do
exist, this seems like an acceptable compromise. A discussion of these
issues can be found at:

the assumption that performance was more important that beancounter
quality statistics.
As it transpires the microoptimization is not measurable in the
real world and the inconsistent statistics confuse users, so revert
the decision.

- most of the kernel code will not care about the actual encoding of
scope zone IDs and won't touch "s6_addr16[1]" directly.
- similarly, most of the kernel code will not care about link-local
scoped addresses as a special case.
- scope boundary check will be stricter. For example, the current
*BSD code allows a packet with src=::1 and dst=(some global IPv6
address) to be sent outside of the node, if the application do:
s = socket(AF_INET6);
bind(s, "::1");
sendto(s, some_global_IPv6_addr);
This is clearly wrong, since ::1 is only meaningful within a single
node, but the current implementation of the *BSD kernel cannot
reject this attempt.

It creates very huge provider (41PB) /dev/gzero.
On BIO_READ request it zero-fills bio_data and on BIO_WRITE it does nothing.
You can also set kern.geom.zero.clear sysctl to 0 to do nothing even for
BIO_READ.
I'm using it for performance testing where it is very helpful.

As an extra bonus: turn on the error led while updating (on hardware with a

be used to pass statistics regarding dropped, matched and received
packet counts from the kernel to user-space. While we are here
introduce a new counter for filtered or matched packets. We currently
keep track of packets received or dropped by the bpf device, but not
how many packets actually matched the bpf filter.
-Introduce net.bpf.stats sysctl OID
-Move sysctl variables after the function prototypes so we can
reference bpf_stats_sysctl(9) without build errors.
-Introduce bpf descriptor counter which is used mainly for sizing
of the xbpf_d array.
-Introduce a xbpf_d structure which will act as an external
representation of the bpf_d structure.
-Add a the following members to the bpfd structure:
bd_fcount - Number of packets which matched bpf filter
bd_pid - PID which opened the bpf device
bd_pcomm - Process name which opened the device.
It should be noted that it's possible that the process which opened
the device could be long gone at the time of stats collection. An
example might be a process that opens the bpf device forks then exits
leaving the child process with the bpf fd.

conversion routine, now change my mind and add one, memstat_strerror(3),
which returns a const char * pointer to a string describing the error,
to be used on the results of memstat_mtl_geterror().

- Define a set of libmemstat(3) error constants, which are used by all
libmemstat(3) methods except for memstat_mtl_alloc(), which allocates
a memory type list and may return ENOMEM via errno.
- Define a per-memory_type_list current error value, which is set when a
call associated with a memory list fails. This requires wrapping a
structure around the queue(9) list head data structure, but this change
is not visible to libmemstat(3) consumers due to using access methods.
- Add a new accessor method, memstat_mtl_geterror() to retrieve the error
number.
- Consistently set the error number in a number of failure modes where
previously some combination of setting errno and printf'ing error
descriptions was used. libmemstat(3) will now no longer print to stdio
under any circumstances. Returns of NULL/-1 for errors remain the
same.
This avoids use of stdio, misuse of error numbers, and should make it
easier to program a libmemstat(3) consumer able to print useful error
messages. Currently, no error-to-string function is provided, as I'm
unsure how to address internationalization concerns.
