o If the new ``filter-decapsulation'' is enabled, delve into UDP packets
that contain 0xff 0x03 as the first two bytes, and if we recognise it
as PROTO_IP, decapsulate it for the purpose of filter checking.
If we recognise it as PROTO_<anything else> mention this for logging
purposes only.
This change is aimed at people running PPPoUDP where the UDP traffic is
being sent over another PPP link. It's desireable to have the top level
link connected all the time, but to have the bottom level link capable
of decapsulating the traffic and comparing the payload against the filters,
thus allowing ``set filter dial ...'' to work in tunnelled environments.
The caveat here is that the top ppp cannot employ any compression layers
without making the data unreadable for the bottom ppp. ``disable deflate
pred1 vj'' and ``deny deflate pred1 vj'' is suggested.

While we're here, log redial, reconnect and phone number

LogDEBUG.
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.

that ppp stays in the foreground.
o Add the -quiet switch to quieten ppps startup
o Add the -nat flag and discourage the use of the -alias flag. Both do
the same thing.
o Correct some nat usage strings.
o Change the internal ``alias'' command to ``nat''.
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
functional).

TODO: The functionality in libradius::rad_send_request() needs
to be supplied as a set of routines so that ppp doesn't
have to wait indefinitely for the radius server(s). Instead,
we need to get a descriptor back, select() on the descriptor,
and ask libradius to service it when necessary.
For now, ppp blocks SIGALRM while in rad_send_request(), so
it misses PAP/CHAP retries & timeouts if they occur.
Only PAP is functional. When CHAP is attempted, libradius
complains that no User-Password has been specified... rfc2138
says that it *mustn't* be used for CHAP :-(

demand-dial links with dynamic IP numbers where the program
that causes the dial bind()s to an interface address that is
subsequently changed after ppp negotiation.
The problem is defeated by adding negotiated addresses to the
tun interface as additional alias addresses and providing a set
of ``iface'' commands for managing the interface. Libalias is
also required (and what a name clash!) - it happily IP-aliases
the address so that the source is that of the primary (negotiated)
interface and un-IP-aliases it on the way back.
An ``enable iface-alias'' is done implicitly by the -alias command
line switch. If -alias isn't given, iface-aliasing is disabled by
default and can't be enabled 'till an ``alias enable yes'' is done.
``alias enable no'' silently disables iface-alias.
So, for dynamic-IP-type-connections, running ``ppp -alias -auto blah''
will work for the first connection, although existing bindings will
not survive a disconnect/connect as the TCP peer will be trying to
send to the old IP address - the packets won't route.
It's now a lot easier to add IPXCP to ppp with minor updates to
the new iface.[ch] (if anyone ever gets 'round to it).
It's also now possible to manually add interface aliases with
something like ``iface add 1.2.3.4/24 5.6.7.8''. This allows
multi-homed ppp links :-)

This should fix problems where ``ppp -auto'' seems to stop

o Add a ``cbcp'' log level and mbuf type.
o Don't dump core when \T is given in ``set login'' or
``set hangup''.
o Allow ``*'' and blanks as placeholders in ppp.secret and

parameters.
o Remove a few extraneous #includes
o Define the default number of REQs (restart counter) in defs.h
rather than hardcoding ``5'' all over the place.
o Fix a few man page inconsistencies.
``add .... HISADDR''. The network will never be
reachable at this point unless we're in -auto or reading

We can now run the following lines and get the expected
results:

whole thing is delayed 'till the IP numbers have been

o When changing the type of the last AUTO link, only clear

o Close /dev/tunX when destroying the bundle.
o Don't forget to close the parent end of the pipe in the child

o If we close our controlling terminal, ditch the current session
with it, allowing getty(8) (or whatever) to regain control.
o After transferring our controlling terminal descriptor to another
ppp instance, we now fork a new ppp to continue where we left off,
transferring ownership of all uucp locks and the /var/run/tunX.pid
file. Meanwhile the parent closes all file descriptors, defaults
all signals and does a pause() to wait for a HUP after the
transferred descriptor is finally closed.
We don't run /bin/cat any more (again!).

TODO: It seems clocal devices need their pause()d session leader

It's now dealt with by the `server' object. This simplifies
things as we only have one list of prompt descriptors and
the log_ routines check prompt::logactive to determine
whether it should be used for output.
o Include the MP socket UpdateSet() result in bundle::UpdateSet().
o Don't select on the tun device unless we're in NETWORK
phase or AUTO mode.
o Stop the idle timer when we go to DEAD phase. We may
have transferred a link and not had a chance to kill
it.
o Don't fail when trying to unlink our transferred datalink
from our descriptor lists just before the transfer.
o Add our link descriptor to the write set if we got a short
write the last time (physical::out is set).
o Log the connection source address when a connection is closed.
o Remove descriptor::next field. Descriptor lists are not required
any more.

is not possible to switch to or from dedicated or direct mode,
but all other combinations are ok (eg. -auto -> -ddial).
o Cope with the fact that commands with optional context may not
be able to obtain a link with command_ChooseLink() (if all links
have been deleted for example).
o Allow `clone'ing in non-multilink mode. We may for example want
to configure two links in unilink mode and dial them both, using
the one that comes up first. It's also possible to rename
``deflink'' by cloning it, deleting the original, then setting
the mode of the new link.
Any `add' or `delete' command that uses MYADDR or HISADDR
will be added to the sticky route list (show ipcp). When
MYADDR or HISADDR change due to IPCP negotiations, and if
`sroutes' is enabled (the default), all sticky route
entries are updated in the routing table.
The end result is that `add default hisaddr' will ``stick'',
as will ``add myaddr 255.255.255.255 127.0.0.1'' and
``add 1.2.3.4 255.255.255.0 hisaddr''.
