ifnets are allowed to pass batches of multiple packets to if_input,
linked by the m_nextpkt pointer. iflib_rxeof() sometimes does this, for
example. Netmap's generic mode did not handle this and would only
deliver the first packet in the batch, leaking the rest.

In emulated mode, the FreeBSD netmap port attempts to perform zero-copy
transmission. This works as follows: the kernel ring is populated with
mbuf headers to which netmap buffers are attached. When transmitting,
the mbuf refcount is initialized to 2, and when the counter value has
been decremented to 1 netmap infers that the driver has freed the mbuf
and thus transmission is complete.
This scheme does not generalize to the situation where netmap is
attaching to a software interface which may transmit packets among
multiple "queues", as is the case with bridge or lagg interfaces. In
that case, we would be relying on backing hardware drivers to free
transmitted mbufs promptly, but this isn't guaranteed; a driver may
reasonably defer freeing a small number of transmitted buffers
indefinitely. If such a buffer ends up at the tail of a netmap transmit
ring, further transmits can end up blocked indefinitely.
Fix the problem by removing the zero-copy scheme (which is also not
implemented in the Linux port of netmap). Instead, the kernel ring is
populated with regular mbuf clusters into which netmap buffers are
copied by nm_os_generic_xmit_frame(). The refcounting scheme is
preserved, and this lets us avoid allocating a fresh cluster per
transmitted packet in the common case. If the transmit ring is full, a
callout is used to free the "stuck" mbuf, avoiding the queue deadlock
described above.
Furthermore, when recycling mbuf clusters, be sure to fully reinitialize
the mbuf header instead of simply re-setting M_PKTHDR. Some software
interfaces, like if_vlan, may set fields in the header which should be
reset before the mbuf is reused.

The previous code unsuccesfully attempted to report a precise error for
each option in the user list. Moreover, commit 253b2ec199 broke some
ctrl-api-test (see https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=260547).
With this patch we bail out as soon as an unrecoverable error is detected and
we properly check for copy boundaries. EOPNOTSUPP no longer immediately
returns an error, so that any other option in the list may be examined
by the caller code and a precise report of the (un)supported options can
be returned to the user.
With this patch, all ctrl-api-test unit tests pass again.

The save_if_input function pointer was meant to save the previous
value of ifp->if_input before replacing it with the emulated
adapter hook.
However, the same pointer value is already stored in the if_input
field of the netmap_adapter struct, to be used for host TX ring processing.
Reuse the netmap_adapter if_input field to simplify the code
and save some space.

Right now we have little visibility into packet drops within netmap.
Start trying to make packet loss issues more visible by counting queue
drops in the transmit path, and in the input path for interfaces running
in emulated mode, where we place received packets in a bounded software
queue that is processed by rxsync.

Per the removed comments these fields should be loaded only once, since

Symptom: when a single extmem memory region is provided to netmap

never released by netmap once all the existing file descriptors
are closed.

We must make sure that incoming packets will never overflow the netmap
buffers, even when the user is using the offset feature. In the typical
scenario, the netmap buffer is 2KiB and, with an MTU of 1500, there are
~500 bytes available for user offsets.
Unfortunately, some NICs accept incoming packets even when they are
larger then the MTU. This means that the only way to stop DMA from
overflowing the netmap buffers, when offsets are allowed, is to choose
a hardware buffer length which is smaller than the netmap buffer
length. For most NICs and for 2KiB netmap buffers, this means 1024
bytes, which is unconveniently small.
The current code will select the small hardware buf size even when
offsets are not in use. The main purpose of this change is to
fix this bug by returning to the normal behavior for the no-offsets
case.
At the same time, the patch pushes the handling of the offset case
to the lower level driver code, so that it can be made NIC-specific
(in future patches).
This is the April update to vendor/wpa committed upstream

The netmap monitor intercepts any TX/RX packets on the monitored
port. However, before this change there was no way to tell
whether an intercepted packet was being transmitted or received
on the monitored port.
A TXMON flag in the netmap slot has been added for this purpose.
This feature enables applications to ask netmap to transmit or
receive packets starting at a user-specified offset from the
beginning of the netmap buffer. This is meant to ease those
packet manipulation operations such as pushing or popping packet
headers, that may be useful to implement software switches,
routers and other packet processors.
To use the feature, drivers (e.g., iflib, vtnet, etc.) must have
explicit support. This change does not add support for any driver,
but introduces the necessary kernel changes. However, offsets support
is already included for VALE ports and pipes.
The netmap_ioctl() function has a reference counting bug in case of
NETMAP_REQ_PORT_INFO_GET command. When `hdr->nr_name[0] == '\0'`,
the function does not decrease the refcount of "nmd", which is
increased by netmap_mem_find(), causing a refcount leak.
