A simialar pattern will be used for controlling SCTP extensions in
upcoming commits.
The rss_key[] array in netinet/in_rss.c has the bytes in incorrect
order. This results in the RSS test vectors in the Microsft RSS spec
and Intel NIC specs giving incorrect results, and making it difficult
to verify correct hash operation when RSS functionality is added to
new NICs.

Previously there was a race condition between the address addition
and associating it with the CARP which resulted in the interface
MAC, instead of the CARP MAC, being used for a brief amount of time.
This caused "is using my IP address" warnings as well as data being
sent to the wrong machine due to incorrect ARP entries being recorded
by other devices on the network.
so it really should not be under "optional inet". The fact that uipc_accf.c
lives under kern/ lends some weight to making it a "standard" file.
Moving kern/uipc_accf.c from "optional inet" to "standard" eliminates the
need for #ifdef INET in kern/uipc_socket.c.
Also, this meant the net.inet.accf.unloadable sysctl needed to move, as
net.inet does not exist without networking compiled in (as it lives in
netinet/in_proto.c.) The new sysctl has been named net.accf.unloadable.
In order to support existing accept filter sysctls, the net.inet.accf node
has been added netinet/in_proto.c.

by the stack.
Right now the stack isn't really setup for RSS with 4-tuple UDP hashing
for either IPv4 and IPv6.
The specifics:
* The UDP init path udp_init() and udplite_init() specify the hash as
2-tuple, so the PCBGROUPS code only tries a 2-tuple check;
* The PCBGROUPS and RSS code doesn't know about the UDP hash types
just yet, so they're never treated as valid hashes.
* For correctness, 4-tuple can't be enabled in the general case because
UDP datagrams can be more fragmented than IP datagrams may be.
Strictly speaking, TCP datagrams may also be fragmented and this could
cause issues with PCBGROUPS/RSS until the IP defragment path grows some
code to re-calculate the RSS hash.
I'll follow this commit up with awareness of the UDP 4-tuple for those
who wish to configure it, but for now it'll stay disabled.
No drivers (yet) know to use this function when RSS is enabled.
markedly better distribution of IPv6 address/ports than the previous key.
The previous key would hash large swaths of the port space for a given
source/destination IP address to the same low handful of bits, effectively
mapping them to the same queue. This made testing very .. special.
a source address was selected and cached, but it was not
stored that is was cached. This resulted in selecting
different source addresses for the INIT-ACK and COOKIE-ACK

awareness.
* Introduce IP_BINDMULTI - indicating that it's okay to bind multiple
sockets on the same bind details.
Although the PCB code has been taught about this (see below) this patch
doesn't introduce the rest of the PCB changes necessary to distribute
lookups among multiple PCB entries in the global wildcard table.
* Introduce IP_RSS_LISTEN_BUCKET - placing an listen socket into the
given RSS bucket (and thus a single PCBGROUP hash.)
* Modify the PCB add path to be aware of IP_BINDMULTI:
+ Only allow further PCB entries to be added if the owner credentials
and IP_BINDMULTI has been specified. Ie, only allow further
IP_BINDMULTI sockets to appear if the first bind() was IP_BINDMULTI.
* Teach the PCBGROUP code about IP_RSS_LISTE_BUCKET marked PCB entries.
Instead of using the wildcard logic and hashing, these sockets are
simply placed into the PCBGROUP and _not_ in the wildcard hash.
* When doing a PCBGROUP lookup, also do a wildcard match as well.
This allows for an RSS bucket PCB entry to appear in a PCBGROUP
rather than having to exist in the wildcard list.
Tested:
* TCP IPv4 server testing with igb(4)
* TCP IPv4 server testing with ix(4)
TODO:
* The pcbgroup lookup code duplicated the wildcard and wildcard-PCB
logic. This could be refactored into a single function.
* This doesn't yet work for IPv6 (The PCBGROUP code in netinet6/ doesn't
yet know about this); nor does it yet fully work for UDP.
These changes prevent sysctl(8) from returning proper output,
such as:
1) no output from sysctl(8)
2) erroneously returning ENOMEM with tools like truss(1)
or uname(1)

there is an environment variable which shall initialize the SYSCTL
during early boot. This works for all SYSCTL types both statically and
dynamically created ones, except for the SYSCTL NODE type and SYSCTLs
which belong to VNETs. A new flag, CTLFLAG_NOFETCH, has been added to
be used in the case a tunable sysctl has a custom initialisation
function allowing the sysctl to still be marked as a tunable. The
kernel SYSCTL API is mostly the same, with a few exceptions for some
special operations like iterating childrens of a static/extern SYSCTL
node. This operation should probably be made into a factored out
common macro, hence some device drivers use this. The reason for
changing the SYSCTL API was the need for a SYSCTL parent OID pointer
and not only the SYSCTL parent OID list pointer in order to quickly
generate the sysctl path. The motivation behind this patch is to avoid
parameter loading cludges inside the OFED driver subsystem. Instead of
adding special code to the OFED driver subsystem to post-load tunables
into dynamically created sysctls, we generalize this in the kernel.
Other changes:
- Corrected a possibly incorrect sysctl name from "hw.cbb.intr_mask"
to "hw.pcic.intr_mask".
- Removed redundant TUNABLE statements throughout the kernel.
- Some minor code rewrites in connection to removing not needed
TUNABLE statements.
- Added a missing SYSCTL_DECL().
- Wrapped two very long lines.
- Avoid malloc()/free() inside sysctl string handling, in case it is
called to initialize a sysctl from a tunable, hence malloc()/free() is
not ready when sysctls from the sysctl dataset are registered.
- Bumped FreeBSD version to indicate SYSCTL API change.

map the bucket to an RSS queue, then map the queue to a CPU ID.
This way the bucket->queue and queue->CPU mapping can change
over time.
Introduce IP_RSSBUCKETID - which instead looks up the RSS bucket.
User applications can then map the RSS bucket to a CPU.
There's 128 indirection table entries which correspond to the
low 7 bits of the 32 bit RSS hash. Each value will correspond
to an RSS bucket. (Then each RSS bucket currently will map
to a CPU.)
This is a more explicit way of figuring out which RSS bucket
is in each RSS indirection slot. It can be inferred by the other
methods but I'd rather drivers use something more simplified and
explicit.
