- Generic network stack improvements:
- - Remove support for obsolete IPv6 socket options.
- New etherip(4)
pseudo-device for tunnelling Ethernet frames across IP[46] networks
using RFC 3378 EtherIP encapsulation.
- New pair(4)
pseudo-device for creating paired virtual Ethernet interfaces.

- bpf(4)
! now runs without the kernel lock.
!
- Split up the
tun(4)
! pseudo-device into
! tun(4)
! (for layer 3) and
! tap(4)
! (for layer 2) pseudo-devices.
! As a result, the link0 flag has no effect on
! tun(4)
! interfaces anymore.
