TTL a packet must have when received on a socket. All packets with a
lower TTL are silently dropped. Works on already connected/connecting
and listening sockets for RAW/UDP/TCP.
This option is only really useful when set to 255 preventing packets
from outside the directly connected networks reaching local listeners
on sockets.
Allows userland implementation of 'The Generalized TTL Security Mechanism
(GTSM)' according to RFC3682. Examples of such use include the Cisco IOS

address is not supplied, then jail IP is choosed and in_pcbbind() is called.
Since udp_output() does not save local addr after call to in_pcbconnect_setup(),
in_pcbbind() is called for each packet, and this is incorrect.
So, we shall treat jailed sockets specially in udp_output(), we will save
their local address.
This fixes a long standing bug with broken sendto() system call in jails.

udp_in6, and udp_ip6 to pass socket address state between udp_input(),
udp_append(), and soappendaddr_locked(). While file in the default
configuration, when running with multiple netisrs or direct ithread
dispatch, this can result in races wherein user processes using
recvmsg() get back the wrong source IP/port. To correct this and
related races:
- Eliminate udp_ip6, which is believed to be generated but then never
used. Eliminate ip_2_ip6_hdr() as it is now unneeded.
- Eliminate setting, testing, and existence of 'init' status fields
for the IPv6 structures. While with multiple UDP delivery this
could lead to amortization of IPv4 -> IPv6 conversion when
delivering an IPv4 UDP packet to an IPv6 socket, it added
substantial complexity and side effects.
- Move global structures into the stack, declaring udp_in in
udp_input(), and udp_in6 in udp_append() to be used if a conversion
is required. Pass &udp_in into udp_append().
- Re-annotate comments to reflect updates.
With this change, UDP appears to operate correctly in the presence of
substantial inbound processing parallelism. This solution avoids
introducing additional synchronization, but does increase the
potential stack depth.

avoid extra calls to the mbuf allocator in the ethernet (and related)

associated with performing a wakeup on the socket buffer:
- When performing an sbappend*() followed by a so[rw]wakeup(), explicitly
acquire the socket buffer lock and use the _locked() variants of both
calls. Note that the _locked() sowakeup() versions unlock the mutex on
return. This is done in uipc_send(), divert_packet(), mroute
socket_send(), raw_append(), tcp_reass(), tcp_input(), and udp_append().
- When the socket buffer lock is dropped before a sowakeup(), remove the
explicit unlock and use the _locked() sowakeup() variant. This is done
in soisdisconnecting(), soisdisconnected() when setting the can't send/
receive flags and dropping data, and in uipc_rcvd() which adjusting

fixes the problem of UDP sockets getting wedged in a connected state (and
bound to their destination) under heavy load.
Temporary bind/connect should probably be deleted in future
as an optimization, as described in "A Faster UDP" [Partridge/Pink 1993].
Notes:
- INP_LOCK() is already held in udp_output(). The connection is in effect
happening at a layer lower than the socket layer, therefore in theory
socket locking should not be needed.
- Inlining the in_pcbdisconnect() operation buys us nothing (in the case
of the current state of the code), as laddr is not part of the
inpcb hash or the udbinfo hash. Therefore there should be no need
to rehash after restoring laddr in the error case (this was a
concern of the original author of the patch).

- Use the inpcb for label instead of socket in tcp_output().
- Use the inpcb for label instead of socket in tcp_respond().
- Use the inpcb for label instead of socket in tcp_twrespond().

While here, modify tcp_respond() to avoid assigning NULL to a stack

It caches measured parameters of past tcp sessions to provide better
initial start values for following connections from or to the same

the remote host this can lead to significant speedups for new tcp
connections after the first one because they inherit and shortcut
the learning curve.

the MAC label referenced from 'struct socket' in the IPv4 and
IPv6-based protocols. This permits MAC labels to be checked during
network delivery operations without dereferencing inp->inp_socket
to get to so->so_label, which will eventually avoid our having to
grab the socket lock during delivery at the network layer.
This change introduces 'struct inpcb' as a labeled object to the
MAC Framework, along with the normal circus of entry points:
initialization, creation from socket, destruction, as well as a
delivery access control check.
For most policies, the inpcb label will simply be a cache of the
socket label, so a new protocol switch method is introduced,
pr_sosetlabel() to notify protocols that the socket layer label
has been updated so that the cache can be updated while holding
appropriate locks. Most protocols implement this using
pru_sosetlabel_null(), but IPv4/IPv6 protocols using inpcbs use
the the worker function in_pcbsosetlabel(), which calls into the
MAC Framework to perform a cache update.
Biba, LOMAC, and MLS implement these entry points, as do the stub
policy, and test policy.

This switch toggles between strict multicast delivery, and traditional
multicast delivery.
The traditional (default) behaviour is to deliver multicast datagrams to all
sockets which are members of that group, regardless of the network interface
where the datagrams were received.
The strict behaviour is to deliver multicast datagrams received on a
particular interface only to sockets whose membership is bound to that
interface.
Note that as a matter of course, multicast consumers specifying INADDR_ANY
for their interface get joined on the interface where the default route
happens to be bound. This switch has no effect if the interface which the
consumer specifies for IP_ADD_MEMBERSHIP is not UP and RUNNING.
The original patch has been cleaned up somewhat from that submitted. It has
been tested on a multihomed machine with multiple QuickTime RTP streams
running over the local switch, which doesn't do IGMP snooping.

to send datagrams from an unconnected socket, we used to first block
input, then connect the socket to the sendmsg/sendto destination,
send the datagram, and finally disconnect the socket and unblock
input.
We now use in_pcbconnect_setup() to check if a connect() would have
succeeded, but we never record the connection in the PCB (local
anonymous port allocation is still recorded, though). The result
from in_pcbconnect_setup() authorises the sending of the datagram
and selects the local address and port to use, so we just construct
the header and call ip_output().
