>One more thing, -CURRENT will stuff two copies of any broadcast into bpf, >it seems. This is because if_simloop() is broken. I proposed to un-break it a while ago and never got any feedback. http://www.FreeBSD.org/cgi/getmsg.cgi?fetch=198310+201485+/usr/local/www/db/text/2001/freebsd-net/20010429.freebsd-net http://people.freebsd.org/~fenner/if_simloop_callers.html I've been meaning to just commit my patch, even though it leaves the callers whose BPF answers are "YES/NO" in that table in the lurch -- but they're in the lurch anyway because if_simloop uses DLT_NULL and that's almost never right.
