David,
there was only one commit that changed userland-kernel interaction,
src/sys/netinet/ip_fw.h:
Revision 1.74 Sat Aug 10 04:37:32 2002 UTC (9 days, 17 hours ago) by luigi
(previous one on that file was 4 weeks old)
The one you mention below only affects manipulation of sets of rules
-- certainly the "unknown opcode" complaints that you were mentioning
earlier relate to the change to ip_fw.h, not this one.
In any case, i am done with ipfw2 except for a minor thing that
will not impact userland-kernel interaction.
cheers
luigi
