net/route.c:

A route generated from an RTF_CLONING route had the RTF_WASCLONED flag
set but did not have a reference to the parent route, as documented in
the rtentry(9) manpage. This prevented such routes from being deleted
when their parent route is deleted.

Now, for example, if you delete an IP address from a network interface,
all ARP entries that were cloned from this interface route are flushed.

This also has an impact on netstat(1) output. Previously, dynamically
created ARP cache entries (RTF_STATIC flag is unset) were displayed as
part of the routing table display (-r). Now, they are only printed if
the -a option is given.

netinet/in.c, netinet/in_rmx.c:

When address is removed from an interface, also delete all routes that
point to this interface and address. Previously, for example, if you
changed the address on an interface, outgoing IP datagrams might still
use the old address. The only solution was to delete and re-add some
routes. (The problem is easily observed with the route(8) command.)

Note, that if the socket was already bound to the local address before
this address is removed, new datagrams generated from this socket will
still be sent from the old address.

Eradicate the variable "time" from the kernel, using various measures.
"time" wasn't a atomic variable, so splfoo() protection were needed
around any access to it, unless you just wanted the seconds part.

Most uses of time.tv_sec now uses the new variable time_second instead.

gettime() changed to getmicrotime(0.

Remove a couple of unneeded splfoo() protections, the new getmicrotime()
is atomic, (until Bruce sets a breakpoint in it).

A couple of places needed random data, so use read_random() instead
of mucking about with time which isn't random.

Add a new nfs_curusec() function.

Mark a couple of bogosities involving the now disappeard time variable.

Update ffs_update() to avoid the weird "== &time" checks, by fixing the
one remaining call that passwd &time as args.

Change profiling in ncr.c to use ticks instead of time. Resolution is
the same.

Add new function "tvtohz()" to avoid the bogus "splfoo(), add time, call
hzto() which subtracts time" sequences.

Provide PRC_IFDOWN and PRC_IFUP support for IP. Now, when an interface
is administratively downed, all routes to that interface (including the
interface route itself) which are not static will be deleted. When
it comes back up, and addresses remaining will have their interface routes
re-added. This solves the problem where, for example, an Ethernet interface
is downed by traffic continues to flow by way of ARP entries.

Add three new route flags to help determine what sort of address
the destination represents. For IP:

- Iff it is a host route, RTF_LOCAL and RTF_BROADCAST indicate local
(belongs to this host) and broadcast addresses, respectively.

- For all routes, RTF_MULTICAST is set if the destination is multicast.

The RTF_BROADCAST flag is used by ip_output() to eliminate a call to
in_broadcast() in a common case; this gives about 1% in our packet-generation
experiments. All three flags might be used (although they aren't now)
to determine whether a packet can be forwarded; a given host route can
represent a forwardable address if:

(rt->rt_flags & (RTF_HOST | RTF_LOCAL | RTF_BROADCAST | RTF_MULTICAST))
== RTF_HOST

Obviously, one still has to do all the work if a host route is not present,
but this code allows one to cache the results of such a lookup if rtalloc1()
is called without masking RTF_PRCLONING.
