added/removed interfaces in a more consistent manner and reloading the
configuration file.
- Implement burst unsolicited RA sending into the internal RA timer framework
when AdvSendAdvertisements and/or configuration entries are changed as
described in RFC 4861 6.2.4. This fixes issues that make termination of the
rtadvd(8) daemon take very long time.
An interface now has three internal states, UNCONFIGURED, TRANSITIVE, or
CONFIGURED, and the burst unsolicited sending happens in TRANSITIVE.
See rtadvd.h for the details.
- rtadvd(8) now accepts non-existent interfaces as well in the command line.
- Add control socket support and rtadvctl(8) utility to show the RA information
in rtadvd(8). Dumping by SIGUSR1 has been removed in favor of it.
added/removed interfaces in a more consistent manner and reloading

- Add initial support for control socket. RA information in the
daemon can be obtained by rtadvctl(8) instead of SIGUSR1 in a similar
manner to ifconfig(8). The information dump has been removed in favor of it.

A remaining issue when reloading the configuration file is that
during that period rtadvd cannot communicate with rtadvctl due to some
additional RA sending for graceful shutdown. This will be fixed later.
Options for DNS Configuration) into rtadvd(8) and rtsold(8). DNS
information received by rtsold(8) will go to resolv.conf(5) by
resolvconf(8) script. This is based on work by J.R. Oldroyd (kern/156259)
but revised extensively[1].
- rtadvd(8) now supports "noifprefix" to disable gathering on-link prefixes
from interfaces when no "addr" is specified[2]. An entry in rtadvd.conf
with "noifprefix" + no "addr" generates an RA message with no prefix
information option.
- rtadvd(8) now supports RTM_IFANNOUNCE message to fix crashes when an
interface is added or removed.
- Correct bogus ND_OPT_ROUTE_INFO value to one in RFC 4191.

TO BE FIXED:
The advertising interface list still depends on the command line argument.
The configuration file cannot be reloaded.
made the logic behind them unnecessarily complicated. This change is
a preparation to add support of dynamically-added/removed interfaces and the
link status changes in a more reliable way. Changes include:
- Use queue(3) for linked-list manipulation.
- Use consistent variable names.
- Use (AF_INET6, s, d, sizeof(d)) instead of (AF_INET6, s, a, INET6_ADDRSTRLEN)
for inet_ntop().

Note: when receiving a link-local scope address rtsold(8) adds a scope
id into addresses in the script arguments based on the received
interface in a representation defined in RFC 4007 (e.g. fe80::1%bge0).
However, there are some shell scripts using printf(1) (including
resolvconf(8)) cannot process it properly because printf(1) can
recognize the character % as special.

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.
