This main goals of this project are:
1. separating L2 tables (ARP, NDP) from the L3 routing tables 2. removing as much locking dependencies among these layers as possible to allow for some parallelism in the search operations 3. simplify the logic in the routing code, The most notable end result is the obsolescent of the route cloning (RTF_CLONING) concept, which translated into code reduction in both IPv4 ARP and IPv6 NDP related modules, and size reduction in struct rtentry{}. The change in design obsoletes the semantics of RTF_CLONING, RTF_WASCLONE and RTF_LLINFO routing flags. The userland applications such as "arp" and "ndp" have been modified to reflect those changes. The output from "netstat -r" shows only the routing entries. Quite a few developers have contributed to this project in the past: Glebius Smirnoff, Luigi Rizzo, Alessandro Cerri, and Andre Oppermann. And most recently: - Kip Macy revised the locking code completely, thus completing the last piece of the puzzle, Kip has also been conducting active functional testing - Sam Leffler has helped me improving/refactoring the code, and provided valuable reviews - Julian Elischer setup the perforce tree for me and has helped me maintaining that branch before the svn conversion
