TTL a packet must have when received on a socket. All packets with a
lower TTL are silently dropped. Works on already connected/connecting
and listening sockets for RAW/UDP/TCP.
This option is only really useful when set to 255 preventing packets
from outside the directly connected networks reaching local listeners
on sockets.
Allows userland implementation of 'The Generalized TTL Security Mechanism
(GTSM)' according to RFC3682. Examples of such use include the Cisco IOS
BGP implementation command "neighbor ttl-security".

The use of ~PDRMASK is problematic if the PDE has PG_NX set. Specifically,
the PG_NX bit will be included in the physical address if ~PDRMASK is used.

is a workaround for non-symetric teardown of the file systems at
shutdown with respect to the mount order at boot. The proper long term
fix is to properly detach devfs from the root mount before unmounting
each, and should be implemented, but since the problem is non-harmful,
this temporary band-aid will prevent false positive bug reports and
unnecessary error output for 6.0-RELEASE.

sizeof(struct g_eli_metadata) will return the exact number of bytes needed
for storing it on the disk.
Without this change GELI was unusable on amd64 (and probably other 64-bit
archs), because sizeof(struct g_eli_metadata) was greater than 512 bytes
and geli(8) was failing on assertion.

easier to identify when two kernels are identical apart from a version

- Remove a lot of superfluous locking during attach. There is no need
to lock access to the driver until some other thread has a way of getting
to it. For ethernet drivers the other ways include registering an
interrupt handler via bus_setup_intr(), calling ether_ifattach() to hook
into the network stack, and kicking off a callout-driven timer via
callout_reset().
- Use callout_* rather than timeout/untimeout.
- Break out of xl_rxeof() if IFF_DRV_RUNNING is clear after ifp->if_input
returns to handle the case where the interface was stopped while we were
passing a packet up the stack. Don't call xl_rxeof() in xl_rxeof_task()
unless IFF_DRV_RUNNING is set. With these fixes in place, any
outstanding task will gracefully terminate as soon as it gets a chance to
run after the interface has been stopped via xl_stop(). As a result,
taskqueue_drain() is no longer required in xl_stop(). The task is still
drained in detach() however to make sure that detach() can safely destroy
the driver mutex at the end of the function.
- Lock the driver lock in the ifmedia callouts and don't lock across
ifmedia_ioctl() in xl_ioctl().
Note: glebius came up with most of (3) as well independently. I took a
rather roundabout way of arriving at the same conclusion.

- Add locked versions of start and init. The SRM_MEDIA code in dc_init()
stayed in dc_init() instead of moving to dc_init_locked() to make the

struct ifnet most of if_findindex() become a complex no-op. Remove it
and replace it with a corrected version of the four line for loop it
devolved to plus some error handling. This should probably be replaced
with subr_unit at some point.
Switch from checking ifaddr_byindex to ifnet_byindex when looking for
empty indexes. Since we're doing this from if_alloc/if_free, we can
only be sure that ifnet_byindex will be correct. This fixes panics when
loading the ef(4) module. The panics were caused by the fact that
if_alloc was called four time before if_attach was called and thus
ifaddr_byindex was not set and the same unit was allocated again. This
in turn caused the first if_attach to fail because the ifp was not the
one in ifnet_byindex(ifp->if_index).

[Some other modules seem in need of fixing WRT this, too.]
Add more compatibility options found in GENERIC to the default

we can't tell for sure if the system .h files don't need them either,
so let's stay on the safe side.
