This is a snapshot of my attempt to fit the FreeBSD networking code into
RTEMS.  Things seem to be working!

Things that need to be done:
        1) More documentation!
        2) Figure out what's still not working :-)
        3) Rationalize the include files.  Right now I have a special
           hack in the Makefile to ensure that I pick up the FreeBSD versions
           of the include files that are duplicated between RTEMS
           and FreeBSD.
           The network device driver source should move to the BSP source tree.
        4) Have a look at all the FIXME comments.
        5) Go through and make sure that all the source files are
           free of undesired copyright restrictions.

Initial Changes
===============

19-AUG-1998 snapshot
        - Pulled BOOTP initialization out of rtems_glue.  Applications which
          don't used BOOTP are now about 5k smaller.
        - Loopback interface is not installed by default, rather it is
          attached like any other interface.  Saves about 0.5 kbytes.
        - Add rtems_bsdnet_show_if_stats();
        - Moved test programs from below freebsd directory.

18-AUG-1998 snapshot
        - Removed some include files that were already part of RTEMS.
        - Cleaned up machine/types.h to prepare for inclusion in RTEMS source.
        - Added syslog library routines -- much simpler than KA9Q version.
          Sockets can be shared among tasks (as long as the send is
          protected by a mutex) so there's no need for a Syslog Daemon.

16-AUG-1998 snapshot
        - Table-driven configuration (networkconfig.h).
        - Cleaned up rtems_bsdnet.h.
        - BOOTP now retries properly -- Note to Joel:
                The dichotomy between RTEMS and UNIX error codes is
                a real pain!

14-AUG-1998 snapshot
        - Added dummy getprotobyname() and getprotobynum() functions.
        - Added socket ioctl.
        - Added application-level entry to manipulate routing tables.
        - Added non-BOOTP network initialization.

13-AUG-1998 snapshot
        - Changed some BOOTP addresses from sockaddr_in to inaddr;
        - Get DNS information from BOOTP reply.
        - Got DNS lookups working.
          Bloatware comes to RTEMS -- invoking gethostbyname() drags in
          and extra 40 kbytes of code!
        - Added hostname lookup program.

12-AUG-1998 snapshot
        - Added startup delay to network initialization.
        - More statistic-printing routines.
        - Added TFTP driver and test program
        - Modified TFTP test program to use networkconfig.h.
        - Removed unused include files.
        - Added from ftp://ftp.ca.FreeBSD.ORG/pub/FreeBSD/FreeBSD-current/src/lib/libc/net.

11-AUG-1998 snapshot.
        - Added getpeername()
        - Added M68k versions of IP checksum code
        - Added TCP timing program to snapshot.

02-AUG-1998 snapshot.
