Mention ``cbcp'' in ``set log ?''

Fix some OpenBSD/alpha warnings

Put the IP buffer queues into struct ipcp.
Forgotten by: me

If we've got a full output buffer queue and cannot send
anything for two mintues (see ``set choked'' and ``show
bundle''), nuke the ip, mp and link level buffer queues.

If we've got a full output buffer queue and cannot send
anything for two mintues (see ``set choked'' and ``show
bundle''), nuke the ip, mp and link level buffer queues.

This should fix problems where ``ppp -auto'' seems to stop
responding after failing to connect to the peer a few times.

o Support callback types NONE, E.164, AUTH and CBCP.

o Support callback types NONE, E.164, AUTH and CBCP.
(see the new ``set callback'' and ``set cbcp'' commands)
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
allow a fifth field for specifying auth/cbcp dialback
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.

Always dial immediately on ``open'', ``dial'' and ``call''.
We don't need a ``!''.

Allow an optional ``!'' in the open, dial & call commands.
When used, the redial timer is ignored and the modem is
opened immediately.

Silence ``Network unreachable'' warnings when using
``add .... HISADDR''. The network will never be
reachable at this point unless we're in -auto or reading
the command from ppp.linkup.

Silence ``Network unreachable'' warnings when using
``add .... HISADDR''. The network will never be
reachable at this point unless we're in -auto or reading
the command from ppp.linkup.

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

set ifaddr 1.2.3.4/0 5.6.7.8/0
add default HISADDR

where a route is added immediately in auto mode and the
whole thing is delayed 'till the IP numbers have been
agreed in other modes.

Essentially, ppp.linkup is no longer required.

Correct enable/disable handling (broken when ironing out
32/64 bit issues recently).

Don't require context when there's only one link
for ``open lcp''

Version 2.0-beta becomes 2.0 :-)

o Fix remaining sizeof problems for 64 bit machines.
o Allow ``set ....'' when we have multiple links but aren't in
multilink mode.
o Do a TLS when we receive a ``Open'' event in ``Closed'' state,

o Fix remaining sizeof problems for 64 bit machines.
o Allow ``set ....'' when we have multiple links but aren't in
multilink mode.
o Do a TLS when we receive a ``Open'' event in ``Closed'' state,
despite the rfc state transition table. This is clearly an
error in the RFC as TLS cannot have yet been called (without
TLF) in the ``Closed'' state.
I've posted a message to comp.protocols.ppp for confirmation.

Remove redundant includes

Don't dlopen()/dlsym() libalias, use it in the same way
as the rest of the world uses libraries.

Add ``ipcp'' as an optional argument to ``open'', and make
open capable of re-negotiatiating the various layers.

It is now possible to change various link options and then
re-open the relevant layer

Add ``ipcp'' as an optional argument to ``open'', and make
open capable of re-negotiatiating the various layers.

It is now possible to change various link options and then
re-open the relevant layer, making the changes effective -
for example, switching off VJ compression or starting ECHO
LQRs on-the-fly.

Create & use fsm2initial(), a function to bring a
state machine back to ST_INITIAL without going
through any unnecessary TLS/TLF pairs.

o Allow ``set mrru'' or ``set mrru 0'' to disable
multi-link mode.
o Fix a typo in the ``set mrru'' description.

Change some log levels. ALERTs are only logged when
something that can't happen happens or when everyone
needs to know. ERRORs are only logged when something
unexpected happens.

Don't bring the modem offline or hangup when ``down lcp''
is done. Instead, behave like ``close lcp''.

Fix a rather nasty use of `static'. This caused a SEGV
when running ``link * load label'' as we ended up recursing
back into command_Interpret after nuking our command arg list.

Give ``load'' optional context. It's now possible to
``link 1,2,3 load label'' for people that want to set
up their links in a more mpd-like manner.
