Hello,

A couple of years ago, Stef Walter proposed a patch[1] that enforced the scope 
of routing messages. The general consesus was that the best approach would be 
the OpenBSD way - transporting the FIB number in the message and letting the 
user applications filter out unwanted messages.

Are there any plans to tackle this before 9.0?

I haven't really been following this unfortunately but I see at least part got done. (ifconfig)

is there anything we need to do before 9.0 that is small but would make a big difference?
(i.e. fixes, tweaks)

One thing that I haven't done and I only recently remembered, was the ability to have a socket inherit it's fib from the incoming connection SYN instead of from the socket opening process.
(at least I am pretty sure I never got that done. (must go check)).


Thanks,
Vlad
