Summary of changes since dhcpcd-6.11.5:

compat is in compat
* README split into README.md and BUILDING.md
* internal routing is now protocol agnostic
* avoid using __packed and use compile time asserts instead
* addresses some alignment issues
* disable some ARP code on kernels which support RFC5227
* BSD IPv6 kernel settings are now updated to reflect dhcpcd config
* custom logger has been removed, syslog handles everything
as such, the --logfile option has been removed as well.
If you need better/earlier logging, get a better syslogger!
* distinfo and signed distinfo files are now available alongside
release taraballs from this point onwards
* default DBDIR has changed from /var/db to /var/db/dhcpcd
* /etc/dhcpcd.duid moves to DBDIR/duid

inside a directory of the same name

* improved nl80211 support on Linux for working out the SSID
* no longer request NTP by default in dhcpcd.conf
* fix detecting IPv6 DAD on OpenBSD
* remove custom Solaris DLPI filtering in favour of BPF
(note there seems to be a kernel issue where the DHCP
fd receives ARP's as well, the only side effect is
a noisy syslog)
* BPF filtering vastly improved so dhcpcd only wake up on
ARP or DHCP packets destined for it
* support for MUD URL (draft-ietf-opsawg-mud-05)
* if the kernel isn't doing DAD, don't insist on waiting for it
to actually do it
* fix a potential crash where the DHCP or ARP states could be
freed before the packet processing loop naturally breaks
* removed gateway and nogateway options
(these can be controlled by the nooption directive which
works for more than just gateways)
* removed ipv6ra_own and ipv6ra_own_default options
(these can be controled by the ipv6rs/noipv6rs directive)
* fix a memory leak on systems where posix_spawnattr_init
allocates memory by calling posix_spawnattr_destroy afterwards
* fix a crash receiving SIGUSR1
* Fixed octal and hex string parsing in options.
* Ignore bogus RTM_DELADDR on FreeBSD when the interface goes down.
* Several statically sized buffers have been removed and replaced
with dynamically sized ones where we have no real idea of what
the size will be.
* Reverse IPv4 route removal order.
* Improved handling of Netlink messages on Linux.
* Poll for tentative link-local addresses if needed.
* Added --small configure directive to reduce binary size
* Allow DHCPv6, IPv4lL and authentication to be compiled out
* dhcpcd requries the interface to be up when considering link status
* Add support for ifa_addrflags in getifaddrs(3)
* Add support for ifam_addrflags and ifam_pid from route(4)
* If T1 or T2 are not set in DHCPv6 messages, use a default from the
lowest pltime instead of the expiration time.
* Validate lease before moving to REQUEST when both ends use
rapid commit.
* If lease validation fails, don't restart the DISCOVER phase if
we're already in it.
* Workaround a 14 year old BSD issue where initial address lifetimes
are transfered to the prefix route and are not updated again,
causing the kernel to remove the route.
The fix is to initially add the address with infinite lifetimes
and then change the lifetimes to the correct ones.
* IPv6 RA routes are now expired by dhcpcd.
* Fix gateway interface assignment on BSD.
* Only mask off signals we do something with
(allows coredumps on some platforms)
* Fix a memory issue where an old lease could be read and discarded
but the buffer length not reset.

mode so that many dhcpcd instances can run per interface.

* pkg-config can now be host selectable in configure,
thanks to Heiko Becker.
* Fixed a NULL pointer dereference when checking ARP conflicts.
* Revert a change in 6.11.1 which causes some packets not to be
read correctly from the BPF socket.

* Fixed some potential memory issues for non embebbeded configs,
thanks to Koichi Okamoto.
* Simplified route handling on BSD.

* Fix truncated packet handling where the DHCP message is less than the
BOOTP size
* Rework the raw socket handling around an fd for initial Solaris support

* Test for hostname_fqdn being set to server or blank
* Allow an SLA 0 and prefix length of 0 to delegate the whole prefix
ia_pd 1 wm1/0
* Fix prefix delegation address timings on renew
* pidfile directory is now created correctly at startup.
* bootp "leases" are now stored so dhcpcd can dump them.
* ARP state is keep open so we can detect duplicates
(currently this is only logged, no action is taken).
* --lastleastextend allows dhcpcd to extend a DHCP lease once
it has expired. The lease is dropped if any other node
claims the address.
* Delegated Prefix reject routes will be correctly bound to the
loopback interface. If a delegated address uses the whole prefix,
then the reject route is removed. If this address is removed, the
reject route is restored.
* dhcp code has been reworked around a classic BOOTP structure
instead of a fixed size DHCP structure based on a max MTU of 1500.
Each reference to it also has a size so we know it's length.
Adding an option to a message is now guarded via easy macros.
Option concatenation buffer is no longer a fixed size.

on Linux.

* Add an option to enable DHCPv6 Information Request without the
need for dhcpcd to recieve an IPv6 Router Advertisement with the
Other Configuration bit set.
* Introduce the optional option type, which allows embedded options
to be optional
* Mark our logger function as sysloglike because we enjoy using %m
* Don't check link state if not instruted to before working out if
we can fork early or not.

It no longer works with a filename.
* If dumping leases, skip authentication and address expiry checks

stdout/stderr.

an address is actually dropped.
* Add noup directive to stop master mode bringing an interface up.
* Fix compile for old Linux systems.
* If only IPv4LL addresses exist, assign a default route to the
interface so that IPv4LL can talk to non IPv4LL on the same link.
* Set DHCPv4 MTU on routes instead of the interface.
This matches IPv6 behaviour and works around dodgy interfaces
where a MTU change can reset the PHY causing an infinite loop.
* MTU is now requsted by default in dhcpcd.conf again.
* noauthrequired also allows unauthenticated FORCERENEW and
RECONFIGURE messages.
* Simplify the socket code by adding a custom function instead of
having the same #ifdef mess for systems without SOCK_CLOEXEC.

testing or dumping leases.
* Build new_domain_name from other sources if blank before checking
it's blank to remove any prior config. Thanks to Paul Walrath.

releasing leases.

the system provide working TAILQ macros)

* A server should not NAK an INFORM
* The noalias directive will now remove any IPv4 addresses existing on
the interface when we want to add our own
* For BSD systems stop polling for IPv6 router reachability
Instead, expect for cached neighour route additions/changes/removals
to be announced by the kernel. Currently only NetBSD-7.99.3 does this.
* Store acquired time for each IPv6 address so we can correctly offset
pltime and vltime if we need to re-add them
* test mode no longer turns off kernel rtadv handling
* Allow STOPPED to be processed by dhcpcd-run-hooks(8)

instead of giving up
* Failure to bind to the DHCP port on the wildcard address when
it's in-use is not an error
* Log which IP address we are ARPing.
* Only free other ARP states if not assinging an IPv4LL address.

* If allowinterfaces is not specified, allow all configured interfaces
to work, such as loopback and ppp.
* When not daemonising, don't exit on timeout.
* Zero length UDP packets are not an error condition on the socket.
Thanks to Micha? K?pie?.
* If the IP address is still on the interface when reading a lease,
fake add the address and routes so the lease can be cleaned up if needed.
* TAILQ macros are now pulled in via config.h only so dhcpcd compiles
on systems where sys/queue.h does not exist at all
* Remove DHCP state correctly when the interface departs
* End the IPv4LL state when DHCP is stopped
* Ensure that any DHCP leased offered still exists when assigning an
IPv4LL address
* Log the address IPv4LL defends
* PREINIT, UNKNOWN and CARRIER are not either up nor down states
* ARP code re-written to allow for many ARP states
* IPv4LL address is now pseudo random based on HW address instead
of really random as per RFC 3927 Section 2.1

to fork.

start IPv4LL at the same time as discover to ensure we have an
address quicker.

when IPv6 resources have been disabled in dhcpcd
* Allow the same IP address to be shared across different interfaces
Interface with the lowest metric gets the IP address, will move
to the next highest if dropped (interface departs, carrier drops, etc)
* Use correct interface gateway on FreeBSD, removes need for linkaddr.c
on kFreeBSD
* Delegated prefix addresses are now reported via DELEGATE6
* Fix copying the correct timezone file
