where we want to create a new IP datagram.
o Add support for RFC6864, which allows to set IP ID for atomic IP
datagrams to any value, to improve performance. The behaviour is
controlled by net.inet.ip.rfc6864 sysctl knob, which is enabled by
default.
o In case if we generate IP ID, use counter(9) to improve performance.
o Gather all code related to IP ID into ip_id.c.

against rules. It definitely doesn't need to know about kernel internals,
such as 'struct ifaddr'. What it does with ifaddr, is that it only takes
ifa_addr member of it, and treats it as sockaddr, while it is only a pointer
to sockaddr. Fortunately, sizeof(struct ifaddr) > sizeof(struct sockaddr_in6),
so no problems arise.
Fix that declaring a private struct ifaddr in ipftest(1) and stop including
if_var.h.

import of new ipfilter vendor sources by flattening them.
To keep the tags consistent with dist, the tags are also flattened.

Since ARP and routing are separated, "proxy only" entries
don't have any meaning, thus we don't need additional field
in sockaddr to pass SIN_PROXY flag.
New kernel is binary compatible with old tools, since sizes
of sockaddr_inarp and sockaddr_in match, and sa_family are
filled with same value.
The structure declaration is left for compatibility with
third party software, but in tree code no longer use it.

ipfilter tables via http by the user-level ippool utility. Previously
the 1024-byte buffer used to store a http request coudld easily overflow
if the length of the hostname part of the url passes exceeded 496 bytes. [1]
- Use snprintf to prevent possieble buffer overflows in future. [2]
- Do not try to close the descriptor twice on failure. [2]

1. separating L2 tables (ARP, NDP) from the L3 routing tables
2. removing as much locking dependencies among these layers as
possible to allow for some parallelism in the search operations
3. simplify the logic in the routing code,
The most notable end result is the obsolescent of the route
cloning (RTF_CLONING) concept, which translated into code reduction
in both IPv4 ARP and IPv6 NDP related modules, and size reduction in
struct rtentry{}. The change in design obsoletes the semantics of
RTF_CLONING, RTF_WASCLONE and RTF_LLINFO routing flags. The userland
applications such as "arp" and "ndp" have been modified to reflect
those changes. The output from "netstat -r" shows only the routing
entries.
Quite a few developers have contributed to this project in the
past: Glebius Smirnoff, Luigi Rizzo, Alessandro Cerri, and
Andre Oppermann. And most recently:
- Kip Macy revised the locking code completely, thus completing
the last piece of the puzzle, Kip has also been conducting
active functional testing
- Sam Leffler has helped me improving/refactoring the code, and
provided valuable reviews
- Julian Elischer setup the perforce tree for me and has helped
me maintaining that branch before the svn conversion
own purposes. To pull this off, it defines _KERNEL before including the
headers where these structures are defined. This leads to no end of
trouble when some of these headers, or other headers that they include,
change, as demonstrated by r180755.
The quick fix in this particular case is to define _WANT_FILE instead of
_KERNEL, conditional on __FreeBSD__. A better long-term fix is left as
an exercise to the reader.
