that covers updates to the contents. Note this is separate from holding
a reference and/or locking the routing table itself.
Other/related changes:
o rtredirect loses the final parameter by which an rtentry reference
may be returned; this was never used and added unwarranted complexity
for locking.
o minor style cleanups to routing code (e.g. ansi-fy function decls)
o remove the logic to bump the refcnt on the parent of cloned routes,
we assume the parent will remain as long as the clone; doing this avoids
a circularity in locking during delete
o convert some timeouts to MPSAFE callouts
Notes:
1. rt_mtx in struct rtentry is guarded by #ifdef _KERNEL as user-level
applications cannot/do-no know about mutex's. Doing this requires
that the mutex be the last element in the structure. A better solution
is to introduce an externalized version of struct rtentry but this is
a major task because of the intertwining of rtentry and other data
structures that are visible to user applications.
2. There are known LOR's that are expected to go away with forthcoming
work to eliminate many held references. If not these will be resolved
prior to release.
3. ATM changes are untested.

new ATMIOCOPENVCC/CLOSEVCC. This allows us to not only use UBR channels
for IP over ATM, but also CBR, VBR and ABR. Change the format of the
link layer address to specify the channel characteristics. The old
format is still supported and opens UBR channels.
This change allows one to specify almost the complete traffic parameters
for IPoverATM channels through the routing table. Up to now we used
4 byte DL addresses (flag, vpi, vciH, vciL). This format is still allowed.
If the address is longer, however, the 5th byte is interpreted as the
traffic class (UBR, CBR, VBR or ABR) and the remaining bytes are the
parameters for this traffic class:
UBR: 0 byte or 3 byte PCR
CBR: 3 byte PCR
VBR: 3 byte PCR, 3 byte SCR, 3 byte MBS
ABR: 3 byte PCR, 3 byte MCR, 3 byte ICR, 3 byte TBE, 1 byte NRM,
1 byte TRM, 2 bytes ADTF, 1 byte RIF, 1 byte RDF and 1 byte CDF
A script to generate the corresponding 'route add' arguments will follow soon.
code used to call rtrequest(RTM_DELETE, ...). This is a problem, because
the function that just has called us (route_output)
is not really happy with the route it just is creating beeing ripped out
from under it. Unfortunately we also cannot return an error from
ifa_rtrequest. Therefore mark the route just as RTF_REJECT.
Have sys/net/route.c:rtrequest1(), which takes ``rt_addrinfo *''
as the argument. Pass rt_addrinfo all the way down to rtrequest1
and ifa->ifa_rtrequest. 3rd argument of ifa->ifa_rtrequest is now
``rt_addrinfo *'' instead of ``sockaddr *'' (almost noone is
using it anyways).
Benefit: the following command now works. Previously we needed
two route(8) invocations, "add" then "change".
# route add -inet6 default ::1 -ifp gif0
Remove unsafe typecast in rtrequest(), from ``rtentry *'' to
``sockaddr *''. It was introduced by 4.3BSD-Reno and never
corrected.

several new features are added:
- support vc/vp shaping
- support pvc shadow interface
code cleanup:
- remove WMAYBE related code. ENI WMAYBE DMA doen't work.
- remove updating if_lastchange for every packet.
- BPF related code is moved to midway.c as it should be.
(bpfwrite should work if atm_pseudohdr and LLC/SNAP are
prepended.)
- BPF link type is changed to DLT_ATM_RFC1483.
BPF now understands only LLC/SNAP!! (because bpf can't
handle variable link header length.)
It is recommended to use LLC/SNAP instead of NULL
encapsulation for various reasons. (BPF, IPv6,
interoperability, etc.)
the code has been used for months in ALTQ and KAME IPv6.
OKed by phk long time ago.
This will not make any of object files that LINT create change; there
might be differences with INET disabled, but hardly anything compiled
before without INET anyway. Now the 'obvious' things will give a
proper error if compiled without inet - ipx_ip, ipfw, tcp_debug. The
only thing that _should_ work (but can't be made to compile reasonably
easily) is sppp :-(
This commit move struct arpcom from <netinet/if_ether.h> to
<net/if_arp.h>.
