1999-03-02	o The if_change_too_big_p change was too high-spirited. Fixed.	Martin Mares
	o Introduced if_find_by_index() o Recognizing two types of interface updates: full update (starting with if_start_update(), ending with if_end_update(), guaranteed to see all existing interfaces) and a partial update (only if_update(), usually due to asynchronous interface notifications).
1999-03-02	Interface logic changes:	Martin Mares
	o Introduced IF_LINK_UP flag corresponding to real link state. o Allowed addressless interfaces. o IF_UP is now automatically calculated and set iff the interface is administratively up, has link up and has an IP address assigned. It may be IF_IGNORED, though (as in case of the loopback). o Any changes which include up/down transition are considered small enough to not provoke artificial upping and downing of the interface. o When an interface disappears (i.e., it wasn't seen in the last scan), we announce this change only once. o IF_LOOPBACK implies IF_IGNORE.
1999-02-13	Parameter order for the proto->if_notify hook was different in the include	Martin Mares
	file and different in reality. Decided to use the same order as we do for proto->rt_notify (i.e., first new value and second the old one).
1999-02-13	Don't send any neighbor notifications to protocols being flushed.	Martin Mares

1999-02-13	When protocols go down, prune the neighbor list.	Martin Mares

1999-02-13	config->router_id works again.	Martin Mares

1999-02-11	struct proto again contains instance name (a copy of proto->cf->name).	Martin Mares

1999-02-05	Implemented new configuration/reconfiguration interface and defined protocol	Martin Mares
	state machines. Full explanation will follow soon.
1998-12-20	die() -> bug() where appropriate.	Martin Mares

1998-12-07	Aesthetic fix for neighbor cache debug dump.	Martin Mares

1998-11-29	Added functions for manipulating interface name pattern lists:	Martin Mares
	o iface_patt_match(list, iface) -- match interface against list o iface_patts_equal(a, b, c) -- compare whether two pattern lists are equal or not. c(x,y) is called for comparison of protocol-dependent data.
1998-10-19	Generate router_id automatically if possible (standard "smallest of local	Martin Mares
	regular interface addresses" rule). Protocols should NOT rely on router_id existence -- when router ID is not available, the router_id variable is set to zero and protocols requiring valid router ID should just refuse to start, reporting such error to the log.
1998-10-17	Solve chicken-and-egg problems with protocol startup. We now queue all inactive	Martin Mares
	protocols and don't send route/interface updates to them and when they come up, we resend the whole route/interface tables privately. Removed the "scan interface list after protocol start" work-around.
1998-06-17	Use '%I' instead of dirty address printing hacks.	Martin Mares

1998-06-04	Now sending IF_CHANGE_CREATE when a new interface appears and IF_CHANGE_UP	Martin Mares
	only if it's really up.
1998-06-03	Protocol hooks. All of them may be NULL.	Martin Mares

1998-06-01	- Rewrote whole interface logic. Removed support for multiple addresses per	Martin Mares
	interface since it makes much trouble everywhere. Instead, we understand secondary addresses as subinterfaces. - In case interface addresses or basic flags change, we simply convert it to a down/up sequence. - Implemented the universal neighbour cache. (Just forget what did previous includes say of neighbour caching, this one is brand new.)
1998-05-26	Implemented scanning of network interfaces. Mostly very ugly code due to	Martin Mares
	terrible kernel interface (SIOGIFCONF and friends).
