IPv6 on an sppp interface. In an IPv6-enabled kernel, every IPv6
interface automatically gets an IPv6 address assigned (and IPv6
multicast packets sent at initialization time). For sppp links where
we know our remote peer wouldn't support IPv6 at all, there's no point
in attempting to negotiate IPV6CP (or to even dial out for an IPv6
packet at all for dial-on-demand interfaces).
I wish there were a more generic way to administratively disable IPv6
on an interface instead. ume told me there isn't.
While i was at it, converted both, enable_vj and enable_ipv6 into flag
bits in struct sppp (enable_vj used to be an int of its own).

inclusion of VJ compression into sppp.
Now, instead of the need to include this and that and everything plus
the kitchensink in each of those drivers, struct sppp uses struct
slcompress as an opaque structure only referenced by a pointer. The
actual structure is then malloced at initialization time.
While i was at it, also fixed a bug where received VJ packets would only
be recognized if INET6 was defined.
time from the PPP packets sent. This effectively merges rev 1.2 of
the old i4b_ispppsubr.c, with the exception that i eventually ended up
in debugging and fixing it so the idle time is now really
detected. ;-) (The version in i4b simply doesn't work right since it
still accounts for incoming LCP echo packets which it is supposed to
ignore for idle time considerations...)

sppp_parms that are needed for the SPPPIO[GS]DEFS ioctl commands.
This allows it to keep struct sppp inside #ifdef _KERNEL (where it
belongs), and prevents userland programs that wish to include
<net/if_sppp.h> from including the earth, the hell, and the universe
before the are able to resolve all the kernel-internal stuff that's in
struct sppp.

This is the logical merge of rev 1.32 of i4b's old if_spppsubr.c (which
was based on PR misc/11767), plus (i4b) rev 1.6 of i4b's if_ispppsubr.c,
albeit with numerous stylistic and cosmetic changes.

This work was based on kame-20010528-freebsd43-snap.tgz and some
critical problem after the snap was out were fixed.
There are many many changes since last KAME merge.
TODO:
- The definitions of SADB_* in sys/net/pfkeyv2.h are still different
from RFC2407/IANA assignment because of binary compatibility
issue. It should be fixed under 5-CURRENT.
- ip6po_m member of struct ip6_pktopts is no longer used. But, it
is still there because of binary compatibility issue. It should
be removed under 5-CURRENT.

full implementation of the sate machine as described in RFC1661, and
provides support for plugging in various control protocols. I needed
this to provide PPP support for the BISDN project (right now).
Unfortunatley, while the existing API was almost up to the point, i
needed one minor API change in order to decouple the this-layer-
started and this-layer-finished actions from the respective Up and
Down events of the lower layer. This requires two additional lines in
the attach routines of all existing lower layer interface drivers that
are using syncPPP (shortcutting these actions and events). Apart from
this, i believe i didn't change the API of all this, so everything
should plug in without too many hassles. Please report if i broke
something in the existing drivers.
For a list of features (including new ones like dial-on-demand), and
things still to be done, please refer to the man page i'll commit asap.
