driver in Linux 2.6. uscanner was just a simple wrapper around a fifo and
contained no logic, the default interface is now libusb (supported by sane).

avoidance:
- Enable setting the RXCSUM and TXCSUM flags for loopback interfaces;
set both by default.
- When RXCSUM is set, flag packets sent over the loopback interface as
having checked and valid IP, UDP, TCP checksums so that higher
protocol layers won't check them.
- Always clear CSUM_{IP,UDP_TCP} checksum required flags on transmit,
as they will have gotten there as a result of TXCSUM being set.
This is done only for packets explicitly sent over the loopback, not
simulated loopback via if_simloop() due to !SIMPLEX interfaces, etc.
Note that enabling TXCSUM but not RXCSUM will lead to unhappiness, as
checksums won't be generated but will be validated.
Kris reports that this leads to significant performance improvements
in loopback benchmarking with TCP and UDP for throughput:
RXCSUM RXCSUM+TXCSUM
TCP 15% 37%
UDP 10% 74%

IPv4 stack.
Diffs are minimized against p4.
PCS has been used for some protocol verification, more widespread
testing of recorded sources in Group-and-Source queries is needed.
sizeof(struct igmpstat) has changed.
__FreeBSD_version is bumped to 800070.
vfsopt and the vfs_buildopts function public, and add some new fields
to struct vfsopt (pos and seen), and new functions vfs_getopt_pos and
vfs_opterror.
Further extend the interface to allow reading options from the kernel
in addition to sending them to the kernel, with vfs_setopt and related
functions.
While this allows the "name=value" option interface to be used for more
than just FS mounts (planned use is for jails), it retains the current
"vfsopt" name and <sys/mount.h> requirement.

@7 (kp_end). As ncurses has the limitation that it returns the first
matched key symbol, you can not use END in ncurses based program under
screen (like ports/misc/mc).
We did similar changes to xterm entry last year for exactly the same reason.

the example script of the manpage feeds awk(1) with values larger
than UINT32_MAX. Then awk prints a negative value, and this
messes up $BPFPROG. Trying to load the resulting bpf byte codes
with ngctl then fails.
For example, the output for PATTERN="udp and dst net 255.255.0.0/16"
should be (all in one line):
bpf_prog_len=10
bpf_prog=[
{ code=40 jt=0 jf=0 k=12 }
{ code=21 jt=7 jf=0 k=34525 }
{ code=21 jt=0 jf=6 k=2048 }
{ code=48 jt=0 jf=0 k=23 }
{ code=21 jt=0 jf=4 k=17 }
{ code=32 jt=0 jf=0 k=30 }
{ code=84 jt=0 jf=0 k=4294901760 }
{ code=21 jt=0 jf=1 k=4294901760 }
{ code=6 jt=0 jf=0 k=8192 }
{ code=6 jt=0 jf=0 k=0 }
]
The two k=4294901760 values are displayed as k=-2147483648 by awk.
Replace the awk script of the manpage example with a slower but
safer version, that doesn't really attempt to convert the byte
code printed by tcpdump from string to number and back.

but the man page describes conceptual information about the process of
adding a user, thus it should belong to section 7.
- Remove HISTORY and BUGS sections because of the aforementioned reason.
