May be called multiple times if it returns < 0.
Remove the bad advise that the probe routine should look for children
for devices that implement busses. This is more properly reserved for
the attach routine.
callout_stop(), except that if the callout being stopped is currently
in progress, it blocks attempts to reset the callout and waits until the
callout is completed before it returns.
This makes it possible to clean up callout-using code safely, e.g.,
without potentially freeing memory which is still being used by a callout.

2. Remove the -g default argument in named_flags. It doesn't actually do
what most users think it does, and what most users want it to do is already
accomplished with a proper default group for the bind user, which we have.
Also, the -g knob does something entirely different in BIND 9, which leads
to a lot of needless confusion/aggravation.
3. In the rc.d script, don't bogusly override $command, or $rc_flags. Both
are adequately handled in rc.conf[.local].
4. DO properly override $rc_flags if user has named_chrootdir set.
This may need to be revisited, but should be ok for now.
5. Protect all chrootdir-related bits under that variable, instead of
named_rcng.
There is more work to be done here, especially in the area of BIND 9
compatibility, but this is a start at least.

Implement ``one'' prefix to allow a "one shot" operation as if
${rcvar}=yes yet all the other prerequisite tests are still performed.
The existing ``force'' prefix is a sledgehammer that ignores all the

more gentle approach to the problem of "manipulate this disabled

This is the first of two commits; bringing in the kernel support first.
This can be enabled by compiling a kernel with options TCP_SIGNATURE
and FAST_IPSEC.
For the uninitiated, this is a TCP option which provides for a means of
authenticating TCP sessions which came into being before IPSEC. It is
still relevant today, however, as it is used by many commercial router
vendors, particularly with BGP, and as such has become a requirement for
interconnect at many major Internet points of presence.
Several parts of the TCP and IP headers, including the segment payload,
are digested with MD5, including a shared secret. The PF_KEY interface
is used to manage the secrets using security associations in the SADB.
There is a limitation here in that as there is no way to map a TCP flow
per-port back to an SPI without polluting tcpcb or using the SPD; the
code to do the latter is unstable at this time. Therefore this code only
supports per-host keying granularity.
Whilst FAST_IPSEC is mutually exclusive with KAME IPSEC (and thus IPv6),
TCP_SIGNATURE applies only to IPv4. For the vast majority of prospective
users of this feature, this will not pose any problem.
This implementation is output-only; that is, the option is honoured when
responding to a host initiating a TCP session, but no effort is made
[yet] to authenticate inbound traffic. This is, however, sufficient to
interwork with Cisco equipment.
Tested with a Cisco 2501 running IOS 12.0(27), and Quagga 0.96.4 with
local patches. Patches for tcpdump to validate TCP-MD5 sessions are also
available from me upon request.
