Track session objects in the framework, and pass handles between the
framework (OCF), consumers, and drivers. Avoid redundancy and complexity in
individual drivers by allocating session memory in the framework and
providing it to drivers in ::newsession().
Session handles are no longer integers with information encoded in various
high bits. Use of the CRYPTO_SESID2FOO() macros should be replaced with the
appropriate crypto_ses2foo() function on the opaque session handle.
Convert OCF drivers (in particular, cryptosoft, as well as myriad others) to
the opaque handle interface. Discard existing session tracking as much as
possible (quick pass). There may be additional code ripe for deletion.
Convert OCF consumers (ipsec, geom_eli, krb5, cryptodev) to handle-style
interface. The conversion is largely mechnical.
The change is documented in crypto.9.

fine when a lot of different flows to be ciphered/deciphered are involved.
However, when a software crypto driver is used, there are
situations where we could benefit from making crypto(9) multi threaded:
- a single flow is to be ciphered: only one thread is used to cipher it,
- a single ESP flow is to be deciphered: only one thread is used to
decipher it.
The idea here is to call crypto(9) using a new mode (CRYPTO_F_ASYNC) to
dispatch the crypto jobs on multiple threads, if the underlying crypto
driver is working in synchronous mode.
Another flag is added (CRYPTO_F_ASYNC_KEEPORDER) to make crypto(9)
dispatch the crypto jobs in the order they are received (an additional
queue/thread is used), so that the packets are reinjected in the network
using the same order they were posted.
A new sysctl net.inet.ipsec.async_crypto can be used to activate
this new behavior (disabled by default).

OCF w/o documentation...
Document the new (8+ year old) device_t way of handling things, that
_unregister_all will leave no threads in newsession, the _SYNC flag,
the requirement that a flag be specified...
Other minor changes like breaking up a wall of text into paragraphs...
mean what you think it should... This will be fixed in the future
with a flag rename, but document what the flag really does and make
the _IV_ flags clear what their presents (or lack there of) means...

for counter mode), and AES-GCM. Both of these modes have been added to
the aesni module.
Included is a set of tests to validate that the software and aesni
module calculate the correct values. These use the NIST KAT test
vectors. To run the test, you will need to install a soon to be
committed port, nist-kat that will install the vectors. Using a port
is necessary as the test vectors are around 25MB.
All the man pages were updated. I have added a new man page, crypto.7,
which includes a description of how to use each mode. All the new modes
and some other AES modes are present. It would be good for someone
else to go through and document the other modes.
A new ioctl was added to support AEAD modes which AES-GCM is one of them.
Without this ioctl, it is not possible to test AEAD modes from userland.
Add a timing safe bcmp for use to compare MACs. Previously we were using
bcmp which could leak timing info and result in the ability to forge
messages.
Add a minor optimization to the aesni module so that single segment
mbufs don't get copied and instead are updated in place. The aesni
module needs to be updated to support blocked IO so segmented mbufs
don't have to be copied.
We require that the IV be specified for all calls for both GCM and ICM.
This is to ensure proper use of these functions.

The reasoning behind this, is that if we are consistent in our
documentation about the uint*_t stuff, people will be less tempted to
write new code that uses the non-standard types.
I am not going to bump the man page dates, as these changes can be
considered style nits. The meaning of the man pages is unaffected.
