IPv6 auto-configuration is disabled. An IPv6 link-local address has a
link-local scope within one link, the spec is unclear for the bridge case and
it may cause scope violation.

- most of the kernel code will not care about the actual encoding of
scope zone IDs and won't touch "s6_addr16[1]" directly.
- similarly, most of the kernel code will not care about link-local
scoped addresses as a special case.
- scope boundary check will be stricter. For example, the current
*BSD code allows a packet with src=::1 and dst=(some global IPv6
address) to be sent outside of the node, if the application do:
s = socket(AF_INET6);
bind(s, "::1");
sendto(s, some_global_IPv6_addr);
This is clearly wrong, since ::1 is only meaningful within a single
node, but the current implementation of the *BSD kernel cannot
reject this attempt.

The prefix management code currently resides in nd6, leaving only the
unused router renumbering capability in the in6_prefix files. Removing
it will make it easier for us to provide locking for the remainder of
IPv6 by reducing the number of objects requiring synchronized access.
This functionality has also been removed from NetBSD and OpenBSD.

This avoids a panic during boot if an interface detaches before the

routine that takes a locked routing table reference and removes all
references to the entry in the various data structures. This
eliminates instances of recursive locking and also closes races
where the lock on the entry had to be dropped prior to calling
rtrequest(RTM_DELETE). This also cleans up confusion where the
caller held a reference to an entry that might have been reclaimed
(and in some cases used that reference).

that covers updates to the contents. Note this is separate from holding
a reference and/or locking the routing table itself.
Other/related changes:
o rtredirect loses the final parameter by which an rtentry reference
may be returned; this was never used and added unwarranted complexity
for locking.
o minor style cleanups to routing code (e.g. ansi-fy function decls)
o remove the logic to bump the refcnt on the parent of cloned routes,
we assume the parent will remain as long as the clone; doing this avoids
a circularity in locking during delete
o convert some timeouts to MPSAFE callouts
Notes:
1. rt_mtx in struct rtentry is guarded by #ifdef _KERNEL as user-level
applications cannot/do-no know about mutex's. Doing this requires
that the mutex be the last element in the structure. A better solution
is to introduce an externalized version of struct rtentry but this is
a major task because of the intertwining of rtentry and other data
structures that are visible to user applications.
2. There are known LOR's that are expected to go away with forthcoming
work to eliminate many held references. If not these will be resolved
prior to release.
3. ATM changes are untested.

in6_pcbpurgeif0(LIST_FIRST(udbinfo.listhead), ifp);
in6_pcbpurgeif0(LIST_FIRST(ripcbinfo.listhead), ifp);
The problem here is that udbinfo.listhead and ripcbinfo.listhead are
not initialized during the device probe/attach phase of the kernel
boot process. So if, for example, a network driver calls ether_ifattach()
in its foo_attach() routine and then decides that something is wrong
and calls ether_ifdetach() to reverse the process, we will panic trying
to dereference the uninitialized list head pointers. (Though the
same sequence of events performed after the kernel has come up works
file, i.e. doing kldload if_foo from multiuser.)
Change this to:
if (udbinfo.listhead != NULL)
in6_pcbpurgeif0(LIST_FIRST(udbinfo.listhead), ifp);
if (ripcbinfo.listhead != NULL)
in6_pcbpurgeif0(LIST_FIRST(ripcbinfo.listhead), ifp);
to avoid the NULL pointer dereferences.
This work was based on kame-20010528-freebsd43-snap.tgz and some
critical problem after the snap was out were fixed.
There are many many changes since last KAME merge.
TODO:
- The definitions of SADB_* in sys/net/pfkeyv2.h are still different
from RFC2407/IANA assignment because of binary compatibility
issue. It should be fixed under 5-CURRENT.
- ip6po_m member of struct ip6_pktopts is no longer used. But, it
is still there because of binary compatibility issue. It should
be removed under 5-CURRENT.
