I still don't agree with naming the sysctl net.pfil.forward.  This

who knows where else in the future.  Forwarding works only for IPv46.

You haven't even replied to my comment on net@.  Please change the
sysctl location and name to its appropriate place.

Hi Andre,

There were two replies related to this subject, you did not replied to
them and i thought that you became agree.

I replied to your reply to mine.  Other than that I didn't find
anything else from you.

So, if not, what you think about the name net.pfil.ipforward?

net.inet.ip.pfil_forward
net.inet6.ip6.pfil_forward

or something like that.

If you can show with your performance profiling that the sysctl
isn't even necessary, you could leave it completely away and have
pfil_forward enabled permanently.  That would be even better for
everybody.

Also an MFC's after 2 weeks must ensure that compiling with IPFIREWALL_
FORWARD enabled the sysctl at the same time to keep kernel configs
within 9-stable working.

Yes, it will work like that.

Excellent.  Thank you.
