Project Clearview: Public DLPI API
This work involves providing a Public libdlpi library that provides a programming interface for DLPI applications.
DLPI is used by applications that need to access the data-link layer directly and thus cannot use a higher-layer API such as sockets.
The code changes have been available since the Project Clearview build 50.
The code changes were putback to ON build 59.
