- Use 2001:db8:: as an example instead of deprecated 3ffe:: address block.
- Add check for connected routes.
- Add support of RTM_IFANNOUNCE for dyanmically-added/removed interfaces.
- Add support of *, ?, and [ in the interface list.
- Add -P number to specify route flag which will never expire.
- Add -Q number to specify route flag which route6d will add to routes via RIP.
- Add -p pidfile to specify the process ID file.
- Use queue(3) for linked-list.
- Use a consistent naming scheme for struct members.
- Use ANSI C style function declaration.
- Add check of RTM_VERSION mismatch.
There is no functional change.
1. separating L2 tables (ARP, NDP) from the L3 routing tables
2. removing as much locking dependencies among these layers as
possible to allow for some parallelism in the search operations
3. simplify the logic in the routing code,
The most notable end result is the obsolescent of the route
cloning (RTF_CLONING) concept, which translated into code reduction
in both IPv4 ARP and IPv6 NDP related modules, and size reduction in
struct rtentry{}. The change in design obsoletes the semantics of
RTF_CLONING, RTF_WASCLONE and RTF_LLINFO routing flags. The userland
applications such as "arp" and "ndp" have been modified to reflect
those changes. The output from "netstat -r" shows only the routing
entries.
Quite a few developers have contributed to this project in the
past: Glebius Smirnoff, Luigi Rizzo, Alessandro Cerri, and
Andre Oppermann. And most recently:
- Kip Macy revised the locking code completely, thus completing
the last piece of the puzzle, Kip has also been conducting
active functional testing
- Sam Leffler has helped me improving/refactoring the code, and
provided valuable reviews
- Julian Elischer setup the perforce tree for me and has helped
me maintaining that branch before the svn conversion
- realloc pedant.
- set sin6_scope_id before sending (link-local/multicast) packets
- removed an incorrect comment
- don't age non-gateway host routes.
- not remove global addresses on loopback interface from routing table
by route aging.

- recover rrt_gw setting for non-p2p case. otherwise, we will not
be able to recover interface route on interface down -> up
transition.
- clarify loop exit condition
