/etc/Makefile so that if it is defined, MAKEDEV all is not called
during a make distribution. This helps clean up the messy userland
in jail(), by reducing the number of devices exposed in jail.

o Fix entry for Megahertz XJ4336-CC4336. Old config (sio1) seems
conflict with IrDA port or COM port on some laptop and sometimes
totally hang up after insertion.
o Add 'NTT DoCoMo Mobile D Card 96P1' which is used by many
people in Japan.

o Make sure every entry has a logger event on insert/delete
o Make sure that the order of loggers is consistant
o Add D-Link DEF-650
o use /sbin/ifconfig consistantly
o Add Elecom Laneed LD-CDE, NTT DoCoMo Paldio 321S and 341S

NICs. (Finally!) The PCMCIA, ISA and PCI varieties are all supported,
though only the ISA and PCI ones will work on the alpha for now.
PCCARD, ISA and PCI attachments are all provided. Also provided an
ancontrol(8) utility for configuring the NIC, man pages, and updated
pccard.conf.sample. ISA cards are supported in both ISA PnP and hard-wired
mode, although you must configure the kernel explicitly to support the
hardwired mode since you have to know the I/O address and port ahead
of time.
Special thanks to Doug Ambrisko for doing the initial newbus hackery
and getting it to work in infrastructure mode.

this is no longer the right way to start Vinum unless you are doing some

respectively logging and dropping ICMP REDIRECT packets.
Note that there is no rate limiting on the log messages, so log_redirect
should be used with caution (preferrably only for debugging purposes).
Prompted by docs/12343, in which people seemed to get a little confused.
The original text in the file said:
[...]
# By default we use COM1 as our serial console port *if* we're going to use
# a serial port as our console at all. (0x3E8 = COM2)
#
#BOOT_COMCONSOLE_PORT= 0x3F8
[...]
From what I can make out, some people have assumed that means that if
they just uncomment the BOOT_COMCONSOLE_PORT then it will use COM2:
These same people then assume that "0x3F8" on that line is a typo for
"0x3E8".
What it actually means is that if you uncomment the line then the default
stays as "Ox3F8" (COM1:), and that you have to uncomment the line, *and*
change the value of the variable in order to use COM2:.
So I've made that a little bit clearer. I've also listed the hex values
for COM1: thru COM4:, snarfed from sys/isa/isareg.h.

get a list of interfaces, and then automatically configure them if
${ifconfig_${ifn}} or /etc/start_if.${ifn} exists.
This makes it a lot easier to deal with machines that constantly change
their network configuration as you can leave ifconfig settings for all
the possible cards - just the ones that are present will be configured.

Perhaps this default value can be inappropriate,
but I set to this value for the convenience of PC-card boot.flp users.

default.
Despite their name it doesn't keep TCP sessions alive, it kills
them if the other end has gone AWOL. This happens a lot with
clients which use NAT, dynamic IP assignment or which has a 2^32
* 10^-3 seconds upper bound on their uptime.
There is no detectable increase in network trafic because of this:
two minimal TCP packets every two hours for a live TCP connection.
Many servers already enable keepalives themselves.
The host requirements RFC is 10 years old, and doesn't know about
the loosing clients of todays InterNet.
