  determining whether a connection should be fused or unfused. This code works
  but is clearly global, effecting  all local connections on the machine while
  the new devices are been used to observe traffic.
  
  Below are some performance figures  for when fusion is enabled and disabled,
! both  on a  current  Nevada  build and  on  Clearview's current  development
! build. Testing was done on a  4 processor E420R server.  In both tests non-debug
! builds were  used. As can be  seen, with no  open ipnet devices there  is no
! performance difference.

  Testing was done using ttcp -r -s 127.0.0.1 for the receiver, and ttcp -t -s
  -n120000 127.0.0.1.
  
+ Interaction with other performance optimizations
+ -----------------------------------------------
+ 
+ As  well as tcp  fusion there  are other  performance optimizations  such as
+ multidata transfer (MDT) and large send offload (LSO). However, this project
+ has no affect on these features  and likewise the features have no affect on
+ this project.

  ipnet device
  ------------
  
  The ipnet device will be  responsible for managing the devices in /dev/ipnet
  and passing up IP traffic  to listeners using these devices.  For management
