The clocksource frequency is represented by
clocksource->mult/2^(clocksource->shift). Currently, when NTP makes
adjustments to the clock frequency, they are made directly to the mult
value.
This has the drawback that once changed, we cannot know what the orignal
mult value was, or how much adjustm

Smack uses CIPSO labeling, but allows for unlabeled packets
by specifying an "ambient" label that is applied to incoming
unlabeled packets. Because the other end of the connection
