HEADS-UP: ipfw2 in RELENG_4 has been sync'ed with -current

[Luigi Rizzo]

[copy to -alpha and -sparc64 as I would appreciate feedback from
those users...]

See the attached commit log... if you are using ipfw2 on
RELENG_4, you need to rebuild /sbin/ipfw next time you update your
kernel.

Please have a look at the new features for iplen, ipttl and address
ranges, they might simplify the writing of your rulesets.

Finally, I would be grateful if alpha and/or sparc64 users could
test this change and confirm that it works (it is the same one that
was recently committed to -current).

	cheers

    sbin/ipfw            ipfw.8 ipfw2.c 
    sys/netinet          ip_dummynet.c ip_fw2.c ip_fw2.h 
  Log:
  MFC: sync ipfw2 (kernel, userland, manpage) with the version in -current.
  Among other things, this includes the following:
  
   + pass to the preprocessor all command-line options after -p
     (except the last one, the ruleset file)
   + add the "verrevpath" option
   + support strong alignment architectures such as alpha and sparc64;
   + support multiple values and ranges for "iplen", "ipttl", "ipid" options.
   + support range notations such as 1.2.3.4/24{5,6,7,10-20,60-90}
     for sets of IP addresses
  
  The changes (also those in sys/netinet/ip_dummynet.c) are all
  IPFW2-specific, which is entirely optional in RELENG_4 so there
  are no ABI issues for those using the standard ipfw[1].
  
  Note, however, that ipfw2 users MUST REBUILD /sbin/ipfw
  together with the new kernel.
