Instead, add protocol specific mbuf flags M_IP_NEXTHOP and
M_IP6_NEXTHOP. Use them to indicate that the mbuf's chain
contains the PACKET_TAG_IPFORWARD tag. And do a tag lookup
only when this flag is set.

- Add support for IPv6 and interface extended tables
- Make number of tables to be loader tunable in range 0..65534.
- Use IP_FW3 opcode for all new extended table cmds
No ABI changes are introduced. Old userland will see valid tables for
IPv4 tables and no entries otherwise. Flush works for any table.
IP_FW3 socket option is used to encapsulate all new opcodes:
/* IP_FW3 header/opcodes */
typedef struct _ip_fw3_opheader {
uint16_t opcode; /* Operation opcode */
uint16_t reserved[3]; /* Align to 64-bit boundary */
} ip_fw3_opheader;
New opcodes added:
IP_FW_TABLE_XADD, IP_FW_TABLE_XDEL, IP_FW_TABLE_XGETSIZE, IP_FW_TABLE_XLIST
ipfw(8) table argument parsing behavior is changed:
'ipfw table 999 add host' now assumes 'host' to be interface name instead of
hostname.
New tunable:
net.inet.ip.fw.tables_max controls number of table supported by ipfw in given
VNET instance. 128 is still the default value.
New syntax:
ipfw add skipto tablearg ip from any to any via table(42) in
ipfw add skipto tablearg ip from any to any via table(4242) out
This is a bit hackish, special interface name '\1' is used to signal interface
table number is passed in p.glob field.

possible to organize subroutines with rules.
The "call" action saves the current rule number in the internal
stack and rules processing continues from the first rule with
specified number (similar to skipto action). If later a rule with
"return" action is encountered, the processing returns to the first
rule with number of "call" rule saved in the stack plus one or higher.

"globalport" option for multiple NAT instances.
If ipfw rule contains "global" keyword instead of nat_number, then
for each outgoing packet ipfw_nat looks up translation state in all
configured nat instances. If an entry is found, packet aliased
according to that entry, otherwise packet is passed unchanged.
User can specify "skip_global" option in NAT configuration to exclude
an instance from the lookup in global mode.

the "sockarg" ipfw option matches packets associated to
a local socket and with a non-zero so_user_cookie value.
The value is made available as tablearg, so it can be used
as a skipto target or pipe number in ipfw/dummynet rules.

It's a bit more pedantic regarding .Bl list elements. This has an added
benefit of unbreaking the ipfw(8) manpage, where groff was silently
skipping one list element.

This is a POLA violation, but it is quite difficult to restore

behavior of the older "tee" action, and this is more intuitive.
and tested over the past two months in the ipfw3-head branch. This
also happens to be the same code available in the Linux and Windows
ports of ipfw and dummynet.
The major enhancement is a completely restructured version of
dummynet, with support for different packet scheduling algorithms
(loadable at runtime), faster queue/pipe lookup, and a much cleaner
internal architecture and kernel/userland ABI which simplifies
future extensions.
In addition to the existing schedulers (FIFO and WF2Q+), we include
a Deficit Round Robin (DRR or RR for brevity) scheduler, and a new,
very fast version of WF2Q+ called QFQ.
Some test code is also present (in sys/netinet/ipfw/test) that
lets you build and test schedulers in userland.
Also, we have added a compatibility layer that understands requests
from the RELENG_7 and RELENG_8 versions of the /sbin/ipfw binaries,
and replies correctly (at least, it does its best; sometimes you
just cannot tell who sent the request and how to answer).
The compatibility layer should make it possible to MFC this code in a
relatively short time.
Some minor glitches (e.g. handling of ipfw set enable/disable,
and a workaround for a bug in RELENG_7's /sbin/ipfw) will be
fixed with separate commits.

This work has been partly supported by the ONELAB2 project, and

With dst-ip or src-ip the option replicates two existing options.
When used with other arguments, the option can be useful to
quickly dispatch traffic based on other fields.

Note- this commit changes the userland/kernel ABI for pipes
(but not for ordinary firewall rules) so you need to rebuild
kernel and /sbin/ipfw to use dummynet features.
Please check the manpage for details on the new feature.
The MFC would be trivial but it breaks the ABI, so it will
be postponed until after 7.2 is released.
