+ * There are significant differences in multiple tables support between BSD variants.
+ *
+ * OpenBSD has table_id field for routes in route socket protocol, therefore all
+ * tables could be managed by one kernel socket. FreeBSD lacks such field,
+ * therefore multiple sockets (locked to specific table using SO_SETFIB socket
+ * option) must be used.
+ *
+ * Both FreeBSD and OpenBSD uses separate scans for each table. In OpenBSD,
+ * table_id is specified explicitly as sysctl scan argument, while in FreeBSD it
+ * is handled implicitly by changing default table using setfib() syscall.
+ *
+ * KRT_SHARED_SOCKET	- use shared kernel socked instead of one for each krt_proto
+ * KRT_USE_SETFIB_SCAN	- use setfib() for sysctl() route scan
+ * KRT_USE_SETFIB_SOCK	- use SO_SETFIB socket option for kernel sockets
+ * KRT_USE_SYSCTL_7	- use 7-th arg of sysctl() as table id for route scans
+ * KRT_USE_SYSCTL_NET_FIBS - use net.fibs sysctl() for dynamic max number of fibs
