Small summary
-------------
o Almost all IPsec releated code was moved into sys/netipsec.
o New kernel modules added: ipsec.ko and tcpmd5.ko. New kernel
option IPSEC_SUPPORT added. It enables support for loading
and unloading of ipsec.ko and tcpmd5.ko kernel modules.
o IPSEC_NAT_T option was removed. Now NAT-T support is enabled by
default. The UDP_ENCAP_ESPINUDP_NON_IKE encapsulation type
support was removed. Added TCP/UDP checksum handling for
inbound packets that were decapsulated by transport mode SAs.
setkey(8) modified to show run-time NAT-T configuration of SA.
o New network pseudo interface if_ipsec(4) added. For now it is
build as part of ipsec.ko module (or with IPSEC kernel).
It implements IPsec virtual tunnels to create route-based VPNs.
o The network stack now invokes IPsec functions using special
methods. The only one header file <netipsec/ipsec_support.h>
should be included to declare all the needed things to work
with IPsec.
o All IPsec protocols handlers (ESP/AH/IPCOMP protosw) were removed.
Now these protocols are handled directly via IPsec methods.
o TCP_SIGNATURE support was reworked to be more close to RFC.
o PF_KEY SADB was reworked:
- now all security associations stored in the single SPI namespace,
and all SAs MUST have unique SPI.
- several hash tables added to speed up lookups in SADB.
- SADB now uses rmlock to protect access, and concurrent threads
can do SA lookups in the same time.
- many PF_KEY message handlers were reworked to reflect changes
in SADB.
- SADB_UPDATE message was extended to support new PF_KEY headers:
SADB_X_EXT_NEW_ADDRESS_SRC and SADB_X_EXT_NEW_ADDRESS_DST. They
can be used by IKE daemon to change SA addresses.
o ipsecrequest and secpolicy structures were cardinally changed to
avoid locking protection for ipsecrequest. Now we support
only limited number (4) of bundled SAs, but they are supported
for both INET and INET6.
o INPCB security policy cache was introduced. Each PCB now caches
used security policies to avoid SP lookup for each packet.
o For inbound security policies added the mode, when the kernel does
check for full history of applied IPsec transforms.
o References counting rules for security policies and security
associations were changed. The proper SA locking added into xform
code.
o xform code was also changed. Now it is possible to unregister xforms.
tdb_xxx structures were changed and renamed to reflect changes in
SADB/SPDB, and changed rules for locking and refcounting.

Old behavior can be restored with the new -N flag.

Extend the so far IPv4-only support for multiple routing tables (FIBs)
introduced in r178888 to IPv6 providing feature parity.
This includes an extended rtalloc(9) KPI for IPv6, the necessary
adjustments to the network stack, and user land support as in netstat.

I contacted Philip Guenther at OpenBSD about this PR and he
corrected the issue in their tree pretty fast.

- Bring IPsec support from the ports collection [1].
- Bring -o ("once only") option from the ports
collection [2].
- Adopt the Makefile framework into
usr.bin/nc/Makefile.
- Add a knob to control whether to build nc(1),
NO_NETCAT.
- Bump __FreeBSD_version so ports collection can
detect this change.
Original patchset are contributed to the ports collection by:
[1] nectar, [2] joerg.
Note: WARNS?=6 patchset spined off in this commit, in order not
to take too many files off the vendor branch.
reimplementation of the famous tool that can do arbitrary TCP
and UDP connections and listens.
This gaves sysadm the same tool the crackers have, so that
they may learn what the network is about and protect it better.
For developers, this is an invaluable debugging tool, and a
good build block of scripts.
