automaticly add it to an Ethernet bridge. This is intended for applications
such as qemu, vmware, openvpn, ... which open tap interfaces and need them
bridged with the hosts network adapter, the user can set up a glob for
interfaces to be automatically added (eg tap*).
notification so all interfaces including pseudo are reported. When netif
creates the clones at startup devctl_disable has not been turned off yet so the
interfaces will not be initialised twice, enforce this by adding an explicit
order between rc.d/netif and rc.d/devd.
This change allows actions to taken in userland when an interface is cloned
and the pseudo interface will be automatically configured if a ifconfig_<int>=""
line exists in rc.conf.

scripts. These scripts handle vnode backed md(4) devices.
Old ramdisk{,-own} scripts will stay a bit in CVS to allow some time for
migration since variable names have changed (ramdisk_* -> mdconfig_*).
Two new variables have been introduced to be able to populate the md(4)
device once it has been mounted (mdconfig_*_files and mdconfig_*_cmd).
Use should be as easy as:
mdconfig_md0="-t malloc -s 10m"
mdconfig_md1="-t vnode -f /var/foo.img"
See rc.conf(5) for more information and description of the additional
variables.

- Change "jid" to "jname" in rc.conf(5), since it's more a jail name than a
jail id. [1]

jail-global. [2]

be used by any application that needs to manage removable media volumes.

1) Make it possible to configure interfaces with certain characters in
their names that aren't valid in shell variables. Currently supported
characters are ".-/+". They are converted into '_' characters.
2) Replace nearly all eval statements in network.subr with a new
function get_if_var which substitues an interface name (after the
translations above) for "IF" in a variable name.
3) Fix list_net_interfaces() in the nodhcp case.
