Packet Filtering Hooks API
==========================
Brief: this project will revisit the work from PSARC/2005/334 and evolve 
the API introduced there to one that OpenSolaris can provide as a 
committed interface for 3rd party consumers.

New key architectural areas that this project will cover:
- the framework will provide object management functions (allocate, 
destroy, etc), where necessary.
- provide an interface that allows consumsers to be aware of multiple IP 
instances

New capabilities that this project will cover:
- notifications of when protocols (including just an instance of one) 
are added/removed

What the project won't deliver:
- a mechanism to manage instance data for its consumers
