Hi List!
Applications such as dhcpcd(8), ntpd(8) and wpa_supplicant(8) all listen
to route(4) for important events.
But they don't actually need to listen to ALL the possible events and
none of them need to listen to the very spamy RTM_MISS message.
Attached is a patch based on OpenBSD's ROUTE_MSGFILTER socket option
which allows an application to filter for messages it's interested in
and thus won't be woken up to burn needless CPU time.
Comments welcome!
Roy
