This fixes a panic that occurs when ifconfig ioctl(s) were interrupted
by IP traffic at the wrong time - resulting in a NULL pointer dereference.
This was originally noticed on a FreeBSD 1.0 system, but the problem still
exists in current sources.

Maybe another one is needed that just changes the default for SO_KEEPALIVE ?

Move ipip_input() and rsvp_input() prototypes to ip_var.h
Remove unused prototype for rip_ip_input() from ip_var.h
Remove unused variable *opts from rip_output()
Get rid of ac->ac_ipaddr and arpwhohas() since they assume that
an interface has only one address.

from Larry Peterson &co. at Arizona:
- Header prediction for ACKs did not exclude Fast Retransmit/Recovery.
- srtt calculation tended to get ``stuck'' and could never decrease
when below 8. It still can't, but the scaling factors are adjusted
so that this artifact does not cause as bad an effect on the RTO
value as it used to.
The paper also points out the incr/8 error that has been long since fixed,
and the problems with ACKing frequency resulting from the use of options
which I suspect to be fixed already as well (as part of the T/TCP work).

between ignoring options specified in the setsockopt call if IP_HDRINCL is set
(the UCB choice when VJ's code was brought in) vs allowing them (what everyone
else did, and what is assumed by programs everywhere...sigh).
Also perform some checking of the passed down packet to avoid running off
the end of a mbuf chain.

Allow the user to nominate one of three ranges of port numbers as
candidates for selecting a local address to replace a zero port number.
The ranges are selected via a setsockopt(s, IPPROTO_IP, IP_PORTRANGE, &arg)
call. The three ranges are: default, high (to bypass firewalls) and
low (to get a port below 1024).
The default and high port ranges are sysctl settable under sysctl
net.inet.ip.portrange.*
This code also fixes a potential deadlock if the system accidently ran out
of local port addresses. It'd drop into an infinite while loop.
The secure port selection (for root) should reduce overheads and increase
reliability of rlogin/rlogind/rsh/rshd if they are modified to take
advantage of it.

when a connection enters the ESTBLS state using T/TCP, then window
scaling wasn't properly handled. The fix is twofold.
1) When the 3WHS completes, make sure that we update our window
scaling state variables.
2) When setting the `virtual advertized window', then make sure
that we do not try to offer a window that is larger than the maximum
window without scaling (TCP_MAXWIN).

to 20000 through 30000. These numbers are used for local IP port numbers
when an explicit address is not specified.
The values are sysctl modifiable under: net.inet.ip.port_{first|last}_auto
These numbers do not overlap with any known server addresses, without going
above 32768 which are "negative" on some other implementations.
20000 through 30000 is 2.5 times larger than the old range, but some have
suggested even that may not be enough... (gasp!) Setting a low address
of 10000 should be plenty.. :-)
local address, that was assigned with ifconfig alias and netmask
0xffffffff, would receive duplictae udp packets.
This behaviour can easily be seen by having named run, and using the alias
address as the name server.
This solution is not the pretiest one, but after talk with Garreth, it
is seen as the most easy one.
to enable IP forwarding, use sysctl(8). Also did the same for IPX,
which involved inventing a completely new MIB from whole cloth (which
I may not quite have correct); be aware of this if you use IPX forwarding.
(The two should never have been controlled by the same option anyway.)
