Here is a excerpt from the recent HEADSUP sent by Luigi Rizzo to -stable: * the merge of ipfw rule descriptor and chain pointer. No functional change, but the internal data structures and code are way more readable; * Bill Fenner's code to make ipfw/dummynet/bridge KLD'able BOTH THESE THINGS REQUIRES REBUILDING OF ipfw.ko and /sbin/ipfw I am not sure if that should be added to UPDATING. After all, it was not added to -CURRENT's /usr/src/UPDATING neither ;-) Regards, JMA -- ****** Jose M.
