e38eb7fbe4 Fix a bug introduced in 1.11 (and also MFCd to stable AND the security branch)
that causes a machine to panic when the kernel PPP / DEFLATE code is used.
1.11 moved a ZFREE to a point after the structural members were clobbered
by stores into a union'd structure.

This commit fixes the bug and adds a big whopping comment to make sure
the code isn't 'cleaned up' again :-)

Ian Dowse came up with the same patch independantly 68 seconds before I
did, talk about Karma!

I would also like to thank Eugene Grosbein for marathon work in tracking the
problem down by udpating his -stable based on date over and over again

42786f6c03 Add hooks for very basic IPFilter support in bridging. Set,
# sysctl net.link.ether.bdg_ipf=1

To enable. Just like ipfw(8) bridging, only input packets are filtered
in the bridge. Filtering works just like in the IP layer, ipf(8)
first, then ipfw(8). And just like in the IP layer, both are
independent, one need not be run to use the other. (Note: This will
not work in, but doesn't break, the bridge.ko module. The ipl.ko
module would need to be fixed before that is worth worrying about.)

f591779bb5 Lock struct pgrp, session and sigio.
New locks are:

- pgrpsess_lock which locks the whole pgrps and sessions,
- pg_mtx which protects the pgrp members, and
- s_mtx which protects the session members.

Please refer to sys/proc.h for the coverage of these locks.

Changes on the pgrp/session interface:

- pgfind() needs the pgrpsess_lock held.

- The caller of enterpgrp() is responsible to allocate a new pgrp and
  session.

- Call enterthispgrp() in order to enter an existing pgrp.

- pgsignal() requires a pgrp lock held.

to notify other nodes about the address change. Otherwise, they
might try and keep using the old address until their arp table

  happen to make use of endian-specific defines.
o Create weak aliases to the canonical function name to help deal with

e88516c29b Lots of improvement to the bridging code.
In order of importance:

 + each cluster now uses private data structures (filtering and
   local address tables) so you can treat them as fully independent
   switches. This part of the work was supported by:
        Cisco Systems, Inc. - NSITE lab, RTP, NC.

 + cleaned up the handling of configuration, so the system will behave
   much better when real or pseudo devices are dynamically attached
   or detached. It should also not panic anymore on systems with large
   number of devices, closing a few existings PRs on the topic.

 + while at it, add support for VLAN. This means that a FreeBSD box
   can now work as a real VLAN switch, with trunk interfaces etc.
   As an example:
        ifconfig vlan0 vlan 3 vlandev dc0
        ifconfig vlan1 vlan 4 vlandev dc0
        net.link.ether.bridge_cfg="vlan0:3,dc1:3,vlan1:4,dc1:4"
   uses dc0 as a trunk interface, and dc1 and dc3 as ports on vlans 3 and 4
   You get the idea...
   NOTA BENE: by default bridge_cfg is initialised to "" so even if
   you enable bridging, no packets will be bridged until you set the
   list of interfaces on which you want this to happen.

 + large restructuring of the code, moving private vars and types from
   bridge.h to bridge.c.

 + added a lot of comments to the code to explain how to use it.

64-bit platforms.  The unaligned access is caused by struct ifa_msghdr
not being a multiple of 8-bytes in size.  If an interface has an odd

unaligned access in the user-level app walking the interfaces (ifconfig).

ee037f26bc Implement an option to administratively disable the negotiation of
IPv6 on an sppp interface.  In an IPv6-enabled kernel, every IPv6
interface automatically gets an IPv6 address assigned (and IPv6
multicast packets sent at initialization time).  For sppp links where
we know our remote peer wouldn't support IPv6 at all, there's no point
in attempting to negotiate IPV6CP (or to even dial out for an IPv6
packet at all for dial-on-demand interfaces).

I wish there were a more generic way to administratively disable IPv6
on an interface instead.  ume told me there isn't.

While i was at it, converted both, enable_vj and enable_ipv6 into flag
bits in struct sppp (enable_vj used to be an int of its own).

64b158ad3c Fix the handling of VJ uncompression. Unfortunately, tcp_uncompress()
makes the implied assumption there were another 128 bytes of space in
front of the packet handed off to it... which is not the case for
sppp.  This could easily end up in corrupting random memory.

This fix is about the same as revs 1.6, 1.8, and 1.9 from our
i4b_ispppsubr.c.

Also fixed IPCP option negotiation to zero out the options when
starting IPCP.  Otherwise, if negotiation parameters change between
various IPCP startups, it could happen that old options would still be
requested (this happened if VJ was turned off, and ended up in half
off the link still negotiating for VJ compression).

IMHO, the base system's sppp is now feature-wise up to date with the
one in the i4b part of the tree, so the latter can be disabled.

02a5d63eff Only call rt_getifa() if we've either been passed a gateway or
if we've been given an RTA_IFP or changed RTA_IFA sockaddr.

This fixes the following bug:
  >/dev/tun100
  >/dev/tun101
  ifconfig tun100 1.2.3.4 5.6.7.8
  ifconfig tun101 1.2.3.4 6.7.8.9
  route change 6.7.8.9 -ifa 1.2.3.4 -iface -mtu 500
which erroneously changed tun101's host route to have an ifp of tun100
(rt_getifa() sets the ifp after calling ifa_ifwithnet(1.2.3.4))

81bda851db Make bpf's read timeout feature work more correctly with
select/poll, and therefore with pthreads.  I doubt there is any way
to make this 100% semantically identical to the way it behaves in
unthreaded programs with blocking reads, but the solution here
should do the right thing for all reasonable usage patterns.

The basic idea is to schedule a callout for the read timeout when a
select/poll is done.  When the callout fires, it ends the select if
it is still in progress, or marks the state as "timed out" if the
select has already ended for some other reason.  Additional logic in
bpfread then does the right thing in the case where the timeout has
fired.

Note, I co-opted the bd_state member of the bpf_d structure.  It has
been present in the structure since the initial import of 4.4-lite,
but as far as I can tell it has never been used.

e4fc250c15 Device Polling code for -current.
Non-SMP, i386-only, no polling in the idle loop at the moment.

To use this code you must compile a kernel with

        options DEVICE_POLLING

and at runtime enable polling with

        sysctl kern.polling.enable=1

The percentage of CPU reserved to userland can be set with

        sysctl kern.polling.user_frac=NN (default is 50)

while the remainder is used by polling device drivers and netisr's.
These are the only two variables that you should need to touch. There
are a few more parameters in kern.polling but the default values
are adequate for all purposes. See the code in kern_poll.c for
more details on them.

Polling in the idle loop will be implemented shortly by introducing
a kernel thread which does the job. Until then, the amount of CPU
dedicated to polling will never exceed (100-user_frac).
The equivalent (actually, better) code for -stable is at

	http://info.iet.unipi.it/~luigi/polling/

and also supports polling in the idle loop.

NOTE to Alpha developers:
There is really nothing in this code that is i386-specific.
If you move the 2 lines supporting the new option from
sys/conf/{files,options}.i386 to sys/conf/{files,options} I am
pretty sure that this should work on the Alpha as well, just that
I do not have a suitable test box to try it. If someone feels like
trying it, I would appreciate it.

NOTE to other developers:
sure some things could be done better, and as always I am open to
constructive criticism, which a few of you have already given and
I greatly appreciated.
However, before proposing radical architectural changes, please
take some time to possibly try out this code, or at the very least
read the comments in kern_poll.c, especially re. the reason why I
am using a soft netisr and cannot (I believe) replace it with a
simple timeout.

b1e4abd246 Give struct socket structures a ref counting interface similar to
vnodes.  This will hopefully serve as a base from which we can
expand the MP code.  We currently do not attempt to obtain any
mutex or SX locks, but the door is open to add them when we nail
down exactly how that part of it is going to work.
