Allow the transition from an idle timeout value
of zero (no timeout) while IPCP is up.
Move some prototypes into .h files and re-order
some includes.

Make the code format more in line with style(9).
Update loadalias to use the new libalias api.
Update to version 1.1.

Put TCP/IP logs back on one line.

Overhaul ppp:
o Use syslog
o Remove references to stdout/stderr (incl perror())
o Introduce VarTerm - the interactive terminal or zero
o Allow "set timeout" to affect current session
o Change "set debug" to "set log"
o Allow "set log [+|-]flag"
o Make MSEXT and PASSWDAUTH stuff the default
o Move all #ifdef DEBUG stuff into the code - this
shouldn't be too much overhead. It's now controlled
with "set log +debug"
o Add "set log command, debug, tun, warn, error, alert"
o Remove cdefs.h, and assume an ansi compiler.
o Improve all diagnostic output
o Don't trap SIGSEGV
o SIGHUP now terminates again (log files are controlled
by syslog)
o Call CloseModem() when changing devices
o Fix parsing of third arg of "delete"

I think this fixes the "magic is same" problems that some
people have been experiencing.
The man page is being rewritten. It'll follow soon.

Here is a diff of /usr/src/usr.sbin/ppp against current. The diffs
add some logging functionality which I find very useful.
'set debug link' will record just link up/down and address assignments.
'set debug connect' will record the entire chat dialog
'set debug carrier' will record just chat lines including 'CARRIER'
(so that I can be sure I'm getting a 28.8 line).

There was a global change required to permit LogPrintf to take a bit
mask instead of a bit position value (to permit logging some events
on either of two flags, so that no change in 'set debug lcp' would
result from the code supporting 'link'. Thus the diffs are rather
long for such a small change. The man page is also touched.

Oh, and there was a slight syntax problem in route.c

Some patches to ppp which improve stability. I have been running a
ppp based on these patches for about 3 weeks with no downtime.

The original submitters comments:

Two features iijppp has over kernel ppp that I like are predictor1
compression and demand dialing. Here are a few bug fixes.

I expanded the priority queueing scheme and discovered it was broken
due to the assignment at ip.c line 300. All packets were being
queued at the same priority.

Fixing priority queueing broke predictor1 compression. Packets
were compressed before being queued and predictor1 worked as long
as the packets were popped off the queue in the same order they
were pushed onto the queue.

There were a few byte order problems in IP header tests also.

There is a recursion problem in SendLqrReport(). LcpClose() is
called when "Too many echo packets are lost" which winds up in
SendLqrReport() again. I believe the original intention was to
just stop the LQR timer with the call to StopLqr() but the side
effects hurt.

o Fixing bug for Predictor-1 function.
o Add new parameter that re-sent interval for set timeout commands.
o Improving RTT (Round Trip Time) and reducing processor time.
- Previous Timer service was using polling, and now using
SIGALRM ;-)
- A 0.94beta2 will not work correctly....

-- Follows are additinal feature not including 0.94beta2
o Support Proxy ARP
- add "enable/disable proxy" commands
o Marging common routine in CHAP/PAP.
o Enhancing LCP/IPCP log information.
o Support local Authfication connection on port 300x and tty.
- You can set up pair of your "hostname -s" and
password in ppp.secret. if either ppp.secret file nor
your hostname line don't exist, It will notify a message
and working as same as previous version.(Backword compatibility)
- If you did set up them, It's allow connection but nothing to do
except help and passwd command.
- add "passwd yourpasswd" commands
o Support afilter - keep Alive filter that a packet can send/receiving
according to ifilter/ofilter but doesn't count it as preventing idle
timer expires.
- Same syntax of other filters.
o Fixing bugs reported by current user for previous one. Thanks !!
