sysctl.7: be a little more descriptive about kern.osrevision

It's expressed as an integer, and is also returned as an integer type
should one retrieve it via sysctl(3) (as this man page already
correctly documents in the table above its description).

Fix PR kern/57037

Be able to change the behavior sending parameter changing routing messages.
When set net.inet6.ip6.param_rt_msg=0, don't send parameter changing
routing messages.
When set net.inet6.ip6.param_rt_msg=1(default), send parameter changing
routing messages by RTM_NEWADDR.


# 1.161 29-Aug-2022 knakahara

Add sysctl entry to control to send routing message for RTM_DYNAMIC.

Some routing daemons require such routing message to keep coherency.

If we want to let kernel send such message, set net.inet.icmp.dynamic_rt_msg=1
for IPv4, net.inet6.icmp6.dynamic_rt_msg=1 for IPv6.
Default(=0) is the same as before, that is, not send such routing message.


# 1.160 22-Aug-2022 knakahara

Add sysctl entry to enable/disable to use path MTU discovery for icmpv6 reflecting.

If we want to use path MTU discovery for icmp reflecting set
net.inet6.icmp6.reflect_pmtu=1. Default(=0) is the same as before, that is,
use IPV6_MINMTU.

Add sysctl entry to improve interconnectivity to some VPN appliances, pointed out by seil-team@IIJ.

net.key.allow_different_idtype=1. Default(=0) is the same as before.

As discussed in tech-kern:

- make sysctl kern.expose_address tri-state:
0: no access
1: access to processes with open /dev/kmem
2: access to everyone
defaults:
0: KASLR kernels
1: non-KASLR kernels

- improve efficiency by calling get_expose_address() per sysctl, not per
process.

- don't expose addresses for linux procfs

- welcome to 8.99.27, changes to fill_*proc ABI

# 1.135 04-Nov-2018 christos

- Introduce a new SO_RERROR socket option to explicitly turn on
receive overflow errors re-instating the default behavior to
silently ignore them as before 2018-03-19.
- Introduce a new kern.sooptions sysctl to control the default
behavior of socket options. Setting this to 0x4000 (SO_RERROR),
turns on receive overflow error reporting for all sockets.
- Change dhcpcd to turn on SO_RERROR on all its sockets.

As discussed in tech-net.


# 1.134 30-Oct-2018 kre

kern.boottime was changed from a struct timeval to a struct timespec
in January 2009 (the Christos' time merge, when time_t went to 64 bits).

sysctl needs to catch up. (So do other progs, which will happen, eventually,
but most of them are unaffected in any practical way.)

If you are running a system (NetBSD 6 or later) without this change, try
sysctl -nn kern.boottime
and marvel at the result (in theory, seconds.microseconds) most
probably being something like:
jinx$ sysctl -nn kern.boottime
1540801874.999995564
(There is a 1 in 1000 chance your system will have booted
in the interval [0 , 999999] nanoseconds after some second,
in which case this will not be observed. You should get
(almost) the same value after this change - just now it is as
it should be (there should now always be 9 digits after the '.').

On the other hand, if you're on a big-endian 64 bit host (running
64 bit sysctl) you would have always seen 0 for the microseconds field.
That should be fixed by this.

In sysctl(7) also document what we mean by "the time the system booted".

Move the description of sysctl MIBs from sysctl.3 to a new manual page
sysctl.7. Remove the list of MIBs from sysctl.8 so we don't have to
maintain duplicate information, as proposed by YAMAMOTO Takashi on
tech-userlevel. Also remove references to header files from sysctl.8.

The numeric constants remain documented, they are still needed in some
cases. See the discussion on tech-userlevel. ("mib list in sysctl.8")

OK by YAMAMOTO Takashi.
