A nice thing about utmpx is that it makes it very easy to log sessions
that don't use TTYs. This is because the file is not indexed by TTY
slots anymore.

create stdin and stdout, don't blindly try to use stdin as a bi-directional
channel. Instead, detect the pipe and set up a special exec handler
that indirects write() calls through stdout.
This fixes the problem where ``set device "!ssh -e none host ppp
-direct label"'' no longer works with an openssh-5.2 server side as
that version of openssh ignores the USE_PIPES config setting and
*always* uses pipes (rather than socketpair) for stdin/stdout channels.

ppp's physical.c is filled with calls to termios. For some reason, it
includes <sys/tty.h>, not <termios.h>. Even though this works with the
current version of FreeBSD, we'd better follow the standards.

Most of I4B has been disconnected from the build
since July 2007 in HEAD/RELENG_7.
This is what was removed:
- configuration in /etc/isdn
- examples
- man pages
- kernel configuration
- sys/i4b (drivers, layers, include files)
- user space tools
- i4b support from ppp
- further documentation

time_t. Deal with the possibility that time_t != int32_t. This boils
down to this sort of thing:
- time(&ut.ut_time);
+ ut.ut_time = time(NULL);
and similar for ctime(3) etc. I've kept it minimal for the stuff
that may need to be portable (or 3rd party code), but used Matt's time32
stuff for cases where that isn't as much of a concern.

o Bump version number to 3.0.4
o When talking to a RADIUS server, provide a NAS-Port-Type.
When the NAS-Port-Type is Ethernet, provide a NAS-Port value equal
to the SESSIONID from the environment in direct mode or the
NGM_PPPOE_SESSIONID message in other modes. If no SESSIONID is found,
default to the interface index in client mode or zero in server mode.
When the NAS-Port-Type is ISDN, set the NAS-Port to the minor number
of the physical device (ie, the N in /dev/i4brbchN).
This makes it easier for the RADIUS server to identify the client
WRT accounting data etc.

It's now possible to manage IPv6 interface addresses and routing
table entries and to filter IPV6 traffic whether encapsulated or
not.
IPV6CP support is crude for now, and hasn't been tested against
any other implementations.
RADIUS and IPv6 are independent of eachother for now.
ppp.linkup/ppp.linkdown aren't currently used by IPV6CP
o Understand all protocols(5) in filter rules rather than only a select
few.
o Allow a mask specification for the ``delete'' command. It's now
possible to specifically delete one of two conflicting routes.
o When creating and deleting proxy arp entries, do it for all IPv4
interface addresses rather than doing it just for the ``current''
peer address.
o When iface-alias isn't in effect, don't blow away manually (via ``iface
add'') added interface addresses.
o When listening on a tcp server (diagnostic) socket, bind so that a
tcp46 socket is created -- allowing both IPv4 and IPv6 connections.
o When displaying ICMP traffic, don't display the icmp type twice.
When display traffic, display at least some information about unrecognised
traffic.

of the two when calculating the MP throughput average for the ``set
autoload'' implementation.
This makes more sense as all links I know of are full-duplex. This
also means that people may need to adjust their autoload settings
as 100% bandwidth is now the theoretical maximum rather than 200%
(but of course, halfing the current settings is probably not the
correct answer either!).
This involves a ppp version bump as we need to pass an extra
throughput array through the MP local domain socket.
cumulative total of all active links rather than basing it on the
total of PROTO_MP traffic.
This fixes a problem whereby Cisco routers send PROTO_IP packets only
when there's only one link (hmm, what a good idea!).
Previously, ppp attempted to bind() to a local domain tcp socket
based on the peer authname & enddisc. If it succeeded, it listen()ed
and became MP server. If it failed, it connect()ed and became MP
client. The server then select()ed on the descriptor, accept()ed
it and wrote its pid to it then read the link data & link file descriptor,
and finally sent an ack (``!''). The client would read() the server
pid, transfer the link lock to that pid, send the link data & descriptor
and read the ack. It would then close the descriptor and clean up.
There was a race between the bind() and listen() where someone could
attempt to connect() and fail.
This change removes the race. Now ppp makes the RCVBUF big enough on a
socket descriptor and attempts to bind() to a local domain *udp* socket
(same name as before). If it succeeds, it becomes MP server. If it
fails, it sets the SNDBUF and connect()s, becoming MP client. The server
select()s on the descriptor and recvmsg()s the message, insisting on at
least two descriptors (plus the link data). It uses the second descriptor
to write() its pid then read()s an ack (``!''). The client creates a
socketpair() and sendmsg()s the link data, link descriptor and one of
the socketpair descriptors. It then read()s the server pid from the
other socketpair descriptor, transfers any locks and write()s an ack.
Now, there can be no race, and a connect() failure indicates a stale
socket file.
This also fixes MP ppp over ethernet, where the struct msghdr was being
misconstructed when transferring the control socket descriptor.
Also, if we fail to send the link, don't hang around in a ``session
owner'' state, just do the setsid() and fork() if it's required to
disown a tty.

0.81.1 of the i4b code - namely support of the I4B_VR_REQ
ioctl via the i4brbchX device.
Ppp controls the phone number, but idle timers and
SYNC/RAW decisions are still made by isdnd (in isdnd.rc).
This involves a new datalink state machine phase. The
``wait for carrier'' phase happens after dialing but
before logging in. The whole dial state should really
be abstracted so that each device type can deal with it
in its own way (thinking about PPPoE) - but that'll have
to wait.
The ``set cd'' symantics remain the same for tty devices,
but we now delay until we either get CD or timeout waiting
(at which time we drop the link if we require CD).
For i4b devices we always insist on carrier.
Thanks to hm@ for his help, and especially for pointing out
that I *don't* need to re-implement isdnd (that was a huge
waste of time !) :-]
o If we're using RADIUS and the RADIUS mtu is less than our
peers mru/mrru, reduce our mtu to this value for NetBSD too.
o Make struct throughput's sample period dynamic and tweak the ppp
version number to reflect the extra stuff being passed through
the local domain socket as a result (MP mode).
o Measure the current throughput based on the number of samples actually
taken rather than on the full sample period.
o Keep the throughput statisics persistent while being passed to
another ppp invocation through the local domain socket.
o When showing throughput statistics after the timer has stopped, use
the stopped time for overall calculations, not the current time.
Also show the stopped time and how long the current throughput has
been sampled for.
o Use time() consistently in throughput.c
o Tighten up the ``show bundle'' output.
o Introduce the ``set bandwidth'' command.
o Rewrite the ``set autoload'' command. It now takes three arguments
and works based on a rolling bundle throughput average compared against
the theoretical bundle bandwidth over a given period (read: it's now

Bump the ppp version number to indicate the transfer format

This should make MP over tty and udp devices functional again.
