* Define some way to get network interface statistics (sent/received bytes/packets, etc.), probably as an ioctl like the other network interface manipulation calls, ideally like BSD does. Probably by supporting `SIOCGIFDATA` like on NetBSD and OpenBSD, and use that in `getifaddrs`.
* Add `SO_RCVTIMEO` support to `pflocal`. That means adding timed reception support to `libpipe`, and plugging it in pflocal.
* Document how to use the `tun` support of pfinet/lwip.
-* Add `tap` support to pfinet/lwip.
+* Add `tap` support to pfinet, by determining which is desired in `setup_tunnel_device` and then add/remove the ethernet header in `trivfs_S_io_read`/`trivfs_S_io_write`. Similarly, in lwip, in `create_netif_state` / `hurdtunif_device_init`, and then `trivfs_S_io_read`/`trivfs_S_io_write`.
* Add support for `EA node inline` storage of xattr, at the very least for getting xattr, see <https://kernel-internals.org/vfs/xattr/#storage-in-ext4>
* Add setxattrat/getxattrat/listxattrat/removexattrat, which are just `at` variants of the existing setxattr/getxattr/listxattr/removexattr, that should simply use `__file_name_lookup_at` instead of `__file_name_lookup`. glibc's `7ae60af75b78f408420512c58fd5a08ca7a88bad` is probably a good read to understand the subtelty.
