- Wrong integer type was specified.
- Wrong or missing "access" specifier. The "access" specifier
sometimes included the SYSCTL type, which it should not, except for
procedural SYSCTL nodes.
- Logical OR where binary OR was expected.
- Properly assert the "access" argument passed to all SYSCTL macros,
using the CTASSERT macro. This applies to both static- and dynamically
created SYSCTLs.
- Properly assert the the data type for both static and dynamic
SYSCTLs. In the case of static SYSCTLs we only assert that the data
pointed to by the SYSCTL data pointer has the correct size, hence
there is no easy way to assert types in the C language outside a
C-function.
- Rewrote some code which doesn't pass a constant "access" specifier
when creating dynamic SYSCTL nodes, which is now a requirement.
- Updated "EXAMPLES" section in SYSCTL manual page.

Main user-visible changes are related to tables:
* Tables are now identified by names, not numbers.
There can be up to 65k tables with up to 63-byte long names.
* Tables are now set-aware (default off), so you can switch/move
them atomically with rules.
* More functionality is supported (swap, lock, limits, user-level lookup,
batched add/del) by generic table code.
* New table types are added (flow) so you can match multiple packet fields at once.
* Ability to add different type of lookup algorithms for particular
table type has been added.
* New table algorithms are added (cidr:hash, iface:array, number:array and
flow:hash) to make certain types of lookup more effective.
* Table value are now capable of holding multiple data fields for
different tablearg users
Performance changes:
* Main ipfw lock was converted to rmlock
* Rule counters were separated from rule itself and made per-cpu.
* Radix table entries fits into 128 bytes
* struct ip_fw is now more compact so more rules will fit into 64 bytes
* interface tables uses array of existing ifindexes for faster match
ABI changes:
All functionality supported by old ipfw(8) remains functional.
Old & new binaries can work together with the following restrictions:
* Tables named other than ^\d+$ are shown as table(65535) in
ruleset in old binaries
Internal changes:.
Changing table ids to numbers resulted in format modification for
most sockopt codes. Old sopt format was compact, but very hard to
extend (no versioning, inability to add more opcodes), so
* All relevant opcodes were converted to TLV-based versioned IP_FW3-based codes.
* The remaining opcodes were also converted to be able to eliminate
all older opcodes at once
* All IP_FW3 handlers uses special API instead of calling sooptcopy*
directly to ease adding another communication methods
* struct ip_fw is now different for kernel and userland
* tablearg value has been changed to 0 to ease future extensions
* table "values" are now indexes in special value array which
holds extended data for given index
* Batched add/delete has been added to tables code
* Most changes has been done to permit batched rule addition.
* interface tracking API has been added (started on demand)
to permit effective interface tables operations
* O(1) skipto cache, currently turned off by default at
compile-time (eats 512K).
* Several steps has been made towards making libipfw:
* most of new functions were separated into "parse/prepare/show
and actuall-do-stuff" pieces (already merged).
* there are separate functions for parsing text string into "struct ip_fw"
and printing "struct ip_fw" to supplied buffer (already merged).
* Probably some more less significant/forgotten features

* Ensure we're flushing entries without any locks held.
* Free memory in (rare) case when interface tracker fails to register ifp.
* Add KASSERT on table values refcounts.
Drop packet if pkg->ifp is NULL, which is the case here.

PR 193861 -- DUMMYNET LAYER2: kernel panic
in this case a kernel panic occurs. Hence, when we do not get an interface,
we just drop the packet in question.

Relnotes: yes
struct ifnet if_oqdrops.
Some netgraph modules used ifqueue w/o ifnet. Accounting of queue drops
is simply removed from them. There were no API to read this statistic.

Kernel changes:
* Split kernel/userland nat structures eliminating IPFW_INTERNAL hack.
* Add IP_FW_NAT44_* codes resemblin old ones.
* Assume that instances can be named (no kernel support currently).
* Use both UH+WLOCK locks for all configuration changes.
* Provide full ABI support for old sockopts.
Userland changes:
* Use IP_FW_NAT44_* codes for nat operations.
* Remove undocumented ability to show ranges of nat "log" entries.
This is the last major change in given branch.
Kernel changes:
* Use 64-bytes structures to hold multi-value variables.
* Use shared array to hold values from all tables (assume
each table algo is capable of holding 32-byte variables).
* Add some placeholders to support per-table value arrays in future.
* Use simple eventhandler-style API to ease the process of adding new
table items. Currently table addition may required multiple UH drops/
acquires which is quite tricky due to atomic table modificatio/swap
support, shared array resize, etc. Deal with it by calling special
notifier capable of rolling back state before actually performing
swap/resize operations. Original operation then restarts itself after
acquiring UH lock.
* Bump all objhash users default values to at least 64
* Fix custom hashing inside objhash.
Userland changes:
* Add support for dumping shared value array via "vlist" internal cmd.
* Some small print/fill_flags dixes to support u32 values.
* valtype is now bitmask of
<skipto|pipe|fib|nat|dscp|tag|divert|netgraph|limit|ipv4|ipv6>.
New values can hold distinct values for each of this types.
* Provide special "legacy" type which assumes all values are the same.
* More helpers/docs following..
