Remove the dns lookup code in the ipx functions. That is bogus and slows
things like netstat -r(f ipx) down, without gaining anything.
Remove the ipx error protocol statistics.
the kernel malloc, netstat was never updated to reflect the fact that
there are once again allocated-but-free mbufs, just as there are
clusters, and so the information presented about how much memory was
allocated to the network was bogus. Fixed.
This will make a number of things easier in the future, as well as (finally!)
avoiding the Id-smashing problem which has plagued developers for so long.
Boy, I'm glad we're not using sup anymore. This update would have been
insane otherwise.
Tor Egge reports counter wrap and requests and update to quad_t sized
counters, which is also a good thing to do, but I'm unhappy about adding
two more instructions into the code path every time we doink a counter.
Maybe with or after the Lite2 merge...

do it themselves. (Some of these programs actually depended on this
beyond compiling the definition of struct ifinfo!) Also fix up some
other #include messes while we're at it.
This stuff should not be too destructive if the IPDIVERT is not compiled in..
be aware that this changes the size of the ip_fw struct
so ipfw needs to be recompiled to use it.. more changes coming to clean this up.
messy 130 column collage, output the system totals -or- info for a
specific interface if -I is given. Also wait for <interval> before
outputting the first sample so that it represents meaningful data (as
opposed to the total since the system was booted - most busy systems
wrap around many times during their operation, so these numbers are
only misleading).
route.c: look up the netname as-is first before the shifted name. this
makes a big speed difference, as the lookups are generally local
DNS. The shifted names can be very wrong (there is still guessing
and fudging involved) and usually go remote, taking a long time
to fail. If you have the RFC reccomended netnames in your reverse
lookups, this is even faster still.
main.c: dont do a sethostent(1) - this is causing the resolver to use a
VC (tcp) connection to the resolver, which has more overheads and
is slower than the default UDP case. This once made sense when
everything was based on text host tables.
patches to merge the two IPX packages to work with each other and to
not break make-world :)
IPXrouted should be working now, (or at least compiling) :)

This is a bulk mport of Mike's IPX/SPX protocol stacks and all the
related gunf that goes with it..
it is not guaranteed to work 100% correctly at this time
but as we had several people trying to work on it
I figured it would be better to get it checked in so
they could all get teh same thing to work on..
Mikes been using it for a year or so
but on 2.0
more changes and stuff will be merged in from other developers now that this is in.
