llentry_free() and arptimer():
o Use callout_init_rw() for lle timeout, this allows us safely
disestablish them.
- This allows us to simplify the arptimer() and make it
race safe.
o Consistently use ifp->if_afdata_lock to lock access to
linked lists in the lle hashes.
o Introduce new lle flag LLE_LINKED, which marks an entry that
is attached to the hash.
- Use LLE_LINKED to avoid double unlinking via consequent
calls to llentry_free().
- Mark lle with LLE_DELETED via |= operation istead of =,
so that other flags won't be lost.
o Make LLE_ADDREF(), LLE_REMREF() and LLE_FREE_LOCKED() more
consistent and provide more informative KASSERTs.
The patch is a collaborative work of all submitters and myself.

- Stateful TCP offload drivers for Terminator 3 and 4 (T3 and T4) ASICs.
These are available as t3_tom and t4_tom modules that augment cxgb(4)
and cxgbe(4) respectively. The cxgb/cxgbe drivers continue to work as
usual with or without these extra features.
- iWARP driver for Terminator 3 ASIC (kernel verbs). T4 iWARP in the

Build-tested with make universe.
30s overview
============
What interfaces support TCP offload? Look for TOE4 and/or TOE6 in the
capabilities of an interface:
# ifconfig -m | grep TOE
Enable/disable TCP offload on an interface (just like any other ifnet
capability):
# ifconfig cxgbe0 toe
# ifconfig cxgbe0 -toe
Which connections are offloaded? Look for toe4 and/or toe6 in the
output of netstat and sockstat:
# netstat -np tcp | grep toe
# sockstat -46c | grep toe

- Use rt*fib() KPI with explicit RT_DEFAULT_FIB where applicable in

- Use the new in6_rt* KPI in TCP, gif(4), and the IPv6 network stack
where applicable.
- Split in6_rtqtimo() and in6_mtutimo() as done in IPv4 and equally
prevent multiple initializations of callouts in in6_inithead().
- Use wrapper functions where needed to preserve the current KPI to
ease MFCs. Use BURN_BRIDGES to indicate expected future cleanup.
- Fix (related) comments (both technical or style).
- Convert to rtinit() where applicable and only use custom loops where
currently not possible otherwise.
- Multicast group, most neighbor discovery address actions and faith(4)

appear in the default FIB, however redirect information and prefixes
of connected subnets are automatically propagated to all FIBs by
default (mimicking IPv4 behavior as closely as possible).

from scratch, copying needed functionality from the old implemenation
on demand, with a thorough review of all code. The main change is that
interface layer has been removed from the CARP. Now redundant addresses
are configured exactly on the interfaces, they run on.
The CARP configuration itself is, as before, configured and read via
SIOCSVH/SIOCGVH ioctls. A new prefix created with SIOCAIFADDR or
SIOCAIFADDR_IN6 may now be configured to a particular virtual host id,
which makes the prefix redundant.
ifconfig(8) semantics has been changed too: now one doesn't need
to clone carpXX interface, he/she should directly configure a vhid
on a Ethernet interface.
To supply vhid data from the kernel to an application the getifaddrs(8)
function had been changed to pass ifam_data with each address. [1]
The new implementation definitely closes all PRs related to carp(4)
being an interface, and may close several others. It also allows
to run a single redundant IP per interface.
Big thanks to Bjoern Zeeb for his help with inet6 part of patch, for
idea on using ifam_data and for several rounds of reviewing!

structs ifreq/in_aliasreq and there've been several panics due
to that problem. All these panics were fixed just a couple of
lines above the panicing code.
Take a more general approach: sanity check sockaddrs supplied
with SIOCAIFADDR and SIOCSIF*ADDR at the beggining of the
function and drop all checks below.
One check is now disabled due to strange code in ifconfig(8)
that I've removed recently. I'm going to enable it with next
__FreeBSD_version bump.
Historically in_ifinit() was able to recover from an error
and restore old address. Nowadays this feature isn't working
for all error cases, but for some of them. I suppose no software
relies on this behavior, so I'd like to remove it, since this
simplifies code a lot.
Also, move if_scrub() earlier in the in_ifinit(). It is more
correct to wipe routes before removing address from local
address list, and interface address list.

I have also been told by developers who customize the packet output

To run a /31 network, participating hosts MUST drop support
for directed broadcasts, and treat the first and last addresses
on subnet as unicast. The broadcast address for the prefix

- Remove net.inet.ip.subnetsarelocal, I bet no one need it in 2011.

net address. For example router having 192.168.x.y/16 network attached,
would not forward traffic to 192.168.*.0, which are legal IPs in

Add macros to define static instances of VNET_DEFINE and DPCPU_DEFINE.
When a fast machine first brings up some non TCP networking program
it is quite possible that we will drop packets due to the fact that
only one packet can be held per ARP entry. This leads to packets
being missed when a program starts or restarts if the ARP data is
not currently in the ARP cache.
This code adds a new sysctl, net.link.ether.inet.maxhold, which defines
a system wide maximum number of packets to be held in each ARP entry.
Up to maxhold packets are queued until an ARP reply is received or
the ARP times out. The default setting is the old value of 1
which has been part of the BSD networking code since time
immemorial.
Expose the time we hold an incomplete ARP entry by adding
the sysctl net.link.ether.inet.wait, which defaults to 20
seconds, the value used when the new ARP code was added..
