reassembly inbound tcp segments. The old algorithm just blindly
dropped in segments without coalescing. This meant that every
segment could take up greater and greater room on the linked list
of segments. This of course is now subject to a tighter limit (100)
of segments which in a high BDP situation will cause us to be a
lot more in-efficent as we drop segments beyond 100 entries that
we receive. What this restructure does is cause the reassembly
buffer to coalesce segments putting an emphasis on the two
common cases (which avoid walking the list of segments) i.e.
where we add to the back of the queue of segments and where we
add to the front. We also have the reassembly buffer supporting
a couple of debug options (black box logging as well as counters
for code coverage). These are compiled out by default but can
be added by uncommenting the defines.

Rack includes the following features:
- A different SACK processing scheme (the old sack structures are not used).
- RACK (Recent acknowledgment) where counting dup-acks is no longer done
instead time is used to knwo when to retransmit. (see the I-D)
- TLP (Tail Loss Probe) where we will probe for tail-losses to attempt
to try not to take a retransmit time-out. (see the I-D)
- Burst mitigation using TCPHTPS
- PRR (partial rate reduction) see the RFC.
Once built into your kernel, you can select this stack by either
socket option with the name of the stack is "rack" or by setting
the global sysctl so the default is rack.
Note that any connection that does not support SACK will be kicked
back to the "default" base FreeBSD stack (currently known as "default").
To build this into your kernel you will need to enable in your
kernel:

Small summary
-------------
o Almost all IPsec releated code was moved into sys/netipsec.
o New kernel modules added: ipsec.ko and tcpmd5.ko. New kernel
option IPSEC_SUPPORT added. It enables support for loading
and unloading of ipsec.ko and tcpmd5.ko kernel modules.
o IPSEC_NAT_T option was removed. Now NAT-T support is enabled by
default. The UDP_ENCAP_ESPINUDP_NON_IKE encapsulation type
support was removed. Added TCP/UDP checksum handling for
inbound packets that were decapsulated by transport mode SAs.
setkey(8) modified to show run-time NAT-T configuration of SA.
o New network pseudo interface if_ipsec(4) added. For now it is
build as part of ipsec.ko module (or with IPSEC kernel).
It implements IPsec virtual tunnels to create route-based VPNs.
o The network stack now invokes IPsec functions using special
methods. The only one header file <netipsec/ipsec_support.h>
should be included to declare all the needed things to work
with IPsec.
o All IPsec protocols handlers (ESP/AH/IPCOMP protosw) were removed.
Now these protocols are handled directly via IPsec methods.
o TCP_SIGNATURE support was reworked to be more close to RFC.
o PF_KEY SADB was reworked:
- now all security associations stored in the single SPI namespace,
and all SAs MUST have unique SPI.
- several hash tables added to speed up lookups in SADB.
- SADB now uses rmlock to protect access, and concurrent threads
can do SA lookups in the same time.
- many PF_KEY message handlers were reworked to reflect changes
in SADB.
- SADB_UPDATE message was extended to support new PF_KEY headers:
SADB_X_EXT_NEW_ADDRESS_SRC and SADB_X_EXT_NEW_ADDRESS_DST. They
can be used by IKE daemon to change SA addresses.
o ipsecrequest and secpolicy structures were cardinally changed to
avoid locking protection for ipsecrequest. Now we support
only limited number (4) of bundled SAs, but they are supported
for both INET and INET6.
o INPCB security policy cache was introduced. Each PCB now caches
used security policies to avoid SP lookup for each packet.
o For inbound security policies added the mode, when the kernel does
check for full history of applied IPsec transforms.
o References counting rules for security policies and security
associations were changed. The proper SA locking added into xform
code.
o xform code was also changed. Now it is possible to unregister xforms.
tdb_xxx structures were changed and renamed to reflect changes in
SADB/SPDB, and changed rules for locking and refcounting.

Here is an attempt to solve that confusion by following relevant RFCs/drafts.
Stack only sets congestion window/slow start threshold values when there is no
CC module availalbe to take that action. All CC modules are inspected and
updated when needed to take appropriate action on loss.
tcp_stacks/fastpath module has been updated to adapt these changes.
Note: Probably, the most significant change would be to not bring congestion
window down to 1MSS on a loss signaled by 3-duplicate acks and letting
respective CC decide that value.

received on a TCP session that has entered the ESTABLISHED state. This
results in a lot of calls to reset the keepalive timer.
This patch changes the behavior so we set the keepalive timer for the
keepalive idle time (TP_KEEPIDLE). When the keepalive timer fires, it will
first check to see if the session has been idle for TP_KEEPIDLE ticks. If
not, it will reschedule the keepalive timer for the time the session will
have been idle for TP_KEEPIDLE ticks.
For a session with regular communication, the keepalive timer should fire
approximately once every TP_KEEPIDLE ticks. For sessions with irregular
communication, the keepalive timer might fire more often. But, the
disruption from a periodic keepalive timer should be less than the regular
cost of resetting the keepalive timer on every packet.
(FWIW, this change saved approximately 1.73% of the busy CPU cycles on a
particular test system with a heavy TCP output load. Of course, the
actual impact is very specific to the particular hardware and workload.)

to add actions that run when a TCP frame is sent or received on a TCP
session in the ESTABLISHED state. In the base tree, this functionality is
only used for the h_ertt module, which is used by the cc_cdg, cc_chd, cc_hd,
and cc_vegas congestion control modules.
Presently, we incur overhead to check for hooks each time a TCP frame is
sent or received on an ESTABLISHED TCP session.
This change adds a new compile-time option (TCP_HHOOK) to determine whether
to include the hhook(9) framework for TCP. To retain backwards
compatibility, I added the TCP_HHOOK option to every configuration file that
already defined "options INET". (Therefore, this patch introduces no
functional change. In order to see a functional difference, you need to
compile a custom kernel without the TCP_HHOOK option.) This change will
allow users to easily exclude this functionality from their kernel, should
they wish to do so.
Note that any users who use a custom kernel configuration and use one of the
congestion control modules listed above will need to add the TCP_HHOOK
option to their kernel configuration.
