This isn't necessarily the best statistic, but it is by far the easiest to
calculate. Update the man page to be more explicit about precisely which
statistics are printed out. Revert some of jmg's bogus man page changes from
rev 1.11.
The answer is not really, but almost.
it sent data that was ok, though it was a hack,
but it was bug-compatible with the kernel on receiving them. This also
had been fixed with a hack.. I hacked it better I think.
to do with netmasks.. we fed totally bogus data into the kernel
to do with default routes and it just believed us. this led to:
1/ kernel panics
2/ the default route refusing to be deleted or added
(depending on a number of factors, usually it worked ok.)
better hack in ffs_vfsops.c. The hack here restricted the maximum file
size to 2^39 bytes (512GB). fs_bsize * 2^31 - 1 (16TB for the default
blocksize of 8K) would have been better. There is no good way to remove
this limit on old BSD4.4 file systems.
unreachable hosts. Note that most of this consists of telling SIGINT
and SIGALRM to interrupt the system call, instead of restarting them.
Also try to get rid of some potential races Bruce didn't like; hopefully
they aren't a problem (potential or otherwise) now.

this is a NO-NO

and handle this in the normal thread.
also handle ping -f better on slow links by backing off a bit when
we get a ENOBUFFS from the sendto().

ignore that line in /etc/ttys. If someone HUP's init, we'll try again.
This change stops getty's from hanging on vty and sio ports that don't
exist, either due to LKM drivers not being loaded, or probes failing.

This makes configuration of mfs /tmp on diskless clients more intuitive
for people like me, that have used this feature on NetBSD and SunOS.
Using the -T option and /dev/null, while already supported,
is neither intuitive nor documented in the handbook.

- use new getvfsbyname() interface.
- new -A option, like -a except only mounted file systems are unmounted.
All non-cosmetic FreeBSD changes in umount.c, except ignoring of
realpath() failures, went away because they are done better in Lite2.
realpath() failures must be ignored so that non-pathnames like
"<above>:/foo" and "host:/bar" get as far as mount(2).
