addresses (and the macros that ipfw(4) use to lookup data for the 'me'
keyword have been converted) remove a comment about using 'me' being a
"computationally expensive" operation.
while I'm here, change two instances of "IP number" to "IP address"
+ implement "limit" rules, which permit to limit the number of sessions
between certain host pairs (according to masks). These are a special
type of stateful rules, which might be of interest in some cases.
See the ipfw manpage for details.
+ merge the list pointers and ipfw rule descriptors in the kernel, so
the code is smaller, faster and more readable. This patch basically
consists in replacing "foo->rule->bar" with "rule->bar" all over
the place.
I have been willing to do this for ages!

right; after a single packet was dropped it beeped after every
transmission.
Change its implementation to only output a bell when there is an
increase in the maximum value of the number of packets that were
sent but not yet received. This has the benefit that even for very
long round-trip times, ping -A will do roughly the right thing
after a few inital false-positives.

and speed. No new functionality added (yet) apart from a bugfix.
MFC will occur in due time and probably in stages.
BUGFIX: fix a problem in old code which prevented reallocation of
the hash table for dynamic rules (there is a PR on this).
OTHER CHANGES: minor changes to the internal struct for static and dynamic rules.
Requires rebuild of ipfw binary.
Add comments to show how data structures are linked together.
(It probably makes no sense to keep the chain pointers separate
from actual rule descriptors. They will be hopefully merged soon.

can set timeouts for closing connections to much shorter times.
merge zero_entry() and resetlog_entry(), they use basically the
same code.
clean up and reduce replication of code for removing rules,
both for readability and code size.
introduce a separate lifetime for dynamic UDP rules.

introduce some local variables to avoid multiple dereferencing of
pointer chains (reduces code size and hopefully increases speed).

where the headers should live, as the code references both "ip_fil.h" and
"netinet/ip_fil.h" (among others). As a consequence, put both
sys/contrib/ipfilter and sys/contrib/ipfilter/netinet to the include path
so either variant works.

At the times, restore(8) and rrestore(8) were the different
utilities. rrestore(8) was installed setuid `root', while
restore(8) with usual ownership and privileges. Later on,
on August 28, 1991 (what a coincidence!), rrestore(8) code
was merged with restore(8). The setgid `tty' bit then was
accidentally put.
default if the executable is named (called as) "mount_*", or can be
enabled with the -C option. This allows users to leave their old
fstab entires unchanged (modulo symlink'ing mdmfs to mount(md|mfs))
and have things behave the way they should (by emulating mount_mfs
silliness), while still allowing mdmfs to be used as a generic
make-an-md-and-mount-it type thing.
Right now, the only effects of this option is to set the mount-point
mode to 01777 as if "-p 1777" was given, and to complain about getting
command-line options that mount_mfs didn't take (e.g., -X, -L, et al).
The latter is mostly to try to catch operator errors.
Also implement -U, which turns on soft-updates. It's redundant (since
softdep is the default), but implement it anyway for compatibility.
