Add CARP (Common Address Redundancy Protocol), which allows multiple

hosts to share an IP address, providing high availability and load
balancing.

Original work on CARP done by Michael Shalayeff, with many
additions by Marco Pfatschbacher and Ryan McBride.

FreeBSD port done solely by Max Laier.

Remove in6_prefix.[ch] and the contained router renumbering capability.

2004-08-23T03:00:27+00:00

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.

Get rid of the RANDOM_IP_ID option and make it a sysctl. NetBSD

2004-08-14T15:32:40+00:00

have already done this, so I have styled the patch on their work:

        1) introduce a ip_newid() static inline function that checks
        the sysctl and then decides if it should return a sequential
        or random IP ID.

        2) named the sysctl net.inet.ip.random_id

        3) IPv6 flow IDs and fragment IDs are now always random.
        Flow IDs and frag IDs are significantly less common in the
        IPv6 world (ie. rarely generated per-packet), so there should
        be smaller performance concerns.

The sysctl defaults to 0 (sequential IP IDs).
