After calling the cap_init(3) function Casper will fork from it's original
process, using pdfork(2). Forking from a process has a lot of advantages:
1. We have the same cwd as the original process.
2. The same uid, gid and groups.
3. The same MAC labels.
4. The same descriptor table.
5. The same routing table.
6. The same umask.
7. The same cpuset(1).
From now services are also in form of libraries.
We also removed libcapsicum at all and converts existing program using Casper
to new architecture.

network packets that we parse and not against local users trying to gain root
access through ping's set-uid bit - this is handled by dropping privileges very
early in ping.

current version of FreeBSD, this isn't guarenteed by the API. Custom
security modules, or future implementations of the setuid and setgid
may fail.

wait time for a packet. This allows to:
- Count number of packets received before and after specified
time.
- Shorten time of execution of 'ping -c 1' scripts.

ping ICMP payload of packets being sent is increased with given step.
Sweeping pings are useful for testing problematic channels, MTU
issues or traffic policing functions in networks.

the NOKERNINFO flag only marginally de-clutters the output and
has a number of unwanted side effects:
o The kernel info might be what you want to see
o ^T is left non-functional if ping is killed non-cleanly
o "ping -q foo &" gets suspended on tty output
Encouraged by: bde
lookup on an IP address from the packet (such as the IP that sent
a TTL exceeded error). If the DNS lookup takes a long time, ^C will
appear to be ineffective since the SIGINT handler just sets a flag
and returns. Work around this by exiting immediately on receipt of
a second SIGINT when DNS lookups are enabled.

o Warn when recieved packet length is not equal to length of the
packet we sent out. Idea from NetBSD.
o Fit the dump of packet with wrong data to 80 columns (from NetBSD).

(See: ftp://ftp.rfc-editor.org/in-notes/rfc3514.txt)
This fulfills the host requirements for userland support by
way of the setsockopt() IP_EVIL_INTENT message.
There are three sysctl tunables provided to govern system behavior.
net.inet.ip.rfc3514:
Enables support for rfc3514. As this is an
Informational RFC and support is not yet widespread
this option is disabled by default.
net.inet.ip.hear_no_evil
If set the host will discard all received evil packets.
net.inet.ip.speak_no_evil
If set the host will discard all transmitted evil packets.
The IP statistics counter 'ips_evil' (available via 'netstat') provides
information on the number of 'evil' packets recieved.
For reference, the '-E' option to 'ping' has been provided to demonstrate
and test the implementation.
- Correct some problems with packet construction.

My previous changes tried to mess around with 'datalen' instead of
modifying 'phdr_len'.
I'm including this nice ASCII diagram (from Maxim) to further clarify things
in CVS history.

temporarily disabled for 8 months.
Fixed related style bugs (disordered declaraction and silly type for
maxpayload -- assume 16-bit ints like the rest of ping.c).

Do not constantify maximum payload size. It is 65467 with -R
