c25290420e Start process of removing the use of the deprecated "M_FLOWID" flag
from the FreeBSD network code. The flag is still kept around in the
"sys/mbuf.h" header file, but does no longer have any users. Instead
the "m_pkthdr.rsstype" field in the mbuf structure is now used to
decide the meaning of the "m_pkthdr.flowid" field. To modify the
"m_pkthdr.rsstype" field please use the existing "M_HASHTYPE_XXX"
macros as defined in the "sys/mbuf.h" header file.

This patch introduces new behaviour in the transmit direction.
Previously network drivers checked if "M_FLOWID" was set in "m_flags"
before using the "m_pkthdr.flowid" field. This check has now now been
replaced by checking if "M_HASHTYPE_GET(m)" is different from
"M_HASHTYPE_NONE". In the future more hashtypes will be added, for
example hashtypes for hardware dedicated flows.

"M_HASHTYPE_OPAQUE" indicates that the "m_pkthdr.flowid" value is
valid and has no particular type. This change removes the need for an
"if" statement in TCP transmit code checking for the presence of a
valid flowid value. The "if" statement mentioned above is now a direct
variable assignment which is then later checked by the respective
network drivers like before.

Additional notes:
- The SCTP code changes will be committed as a separate patch.
- Removal of the "M_FLOWID" flag will also be done separately.
- The FreeBSD version has been bumped.

f0188618f2 Fix multiple incorrect SYSCTL arguments in the kernel:
- Wrong integer type was specified.

- Wrong or missing "access" specifier. The "access" specifier
sometimes included the SYSCTL type, which it should not, except for
procedural SYSCTL nodes.

- Logical OR where binary OR was expected.

- Properly assert the "access" argument passed to all SYSCTL macros,
using the CTASSERT macro. This applies to both static- and dynamically
created SYSCTLs.

- Properly assert the the data type for both static and dynamic
SYSCTLs. In the case of static SYSCTLs we only assert that the data
pointed to by the SYSCTL data pointer has the correct size, hence
there is no easy way to assert types in the C language outside a
C-function.

- Rewrote some code which doesn't pass a constant "access" specifier
when creating dynamic SYSCTL nodes, which is now a requirement.

- Updated "EXAMPLES" section in SYSCTL manual page.

b245f96c44 Since 32-bit if_baudrate isn't enough to describe a baud rate of a 10 Gbit
interface, in the r241616 a crutch was provided. It didn't work well, and
finally we decided that it is time to break ABI and simply make if_baudrate
a 64-bit value. Meanwhile, the entire struct if_data was reviewed.

o Remove the if_baudrate_pf crutch.

o Make all fields of struct if_data fixed machine independent size. The
  notion of data (packet counters, etc) are by no means MD. And it is a
  bug that on amd64 we've got a 64-bit counters, while on i386 32-bit,
  which at modern speeds overflow within a second.

  This also removes quite a lot of COMPAT_FREEBSD32 code.

o Give 16 bit for the ifi_datalen field. This field was provided to
  make future changes to if_data less ABI breaking. Unfortunately the
  8 bit size of it had effectively limited sizeof if_data to 256 bytes.

o Give 32 bits to ifi_mtu and ifi_metric.
o Give 64 bits to the rest of fields, since they are counters.

__FreeBSD_version bumped.

063efed28c The drbr(9) API appeared to be so unclear, that most drivers in
tree used it incorrectly, which lead to inaccurate overrated
if_obytes accounting. The drbr(9) used to update ifnet stats on
drbr_enqueue(), which is not accurate since enqueuing doesn't
imply successful processing by driver. Dequeuing neither mean
that. Most drivers also called drbr_stats_update() which did
accounting again, leading to doubled if_obytes statistics. And
in case of severe transmitting, when a packet could be several
times enqueued and dequeued it could have been accounted several
times.

o Thus, make drbr(9) API thinner. Now drbr(9) merely chooses between
  ALTQ queueing or buf_ring(9) queueing.
  - It doesn't touch the buf_ring stats any more.
  - It doesn't touch ifnet stats anymore.
  - drbr_stats_update() no longer exists.

o buf_ring(9) handles its stats itself:
  - It handles br_drops itself.
  - br_prod_bytes stats are dropped. Rationale: no one ever
    reads them but update of a common counter on every packet
    negatively affects performance due to excessive cache
    invalidation.
  - buf_ring_enqueue_bytes() reduced to buf_ring_enqueue(), since
    we no longer account bytes.

o Drivers handle their stats theirselves: if_obytes, if_omcasts.

o mlx4(4), igb(4), em(4), vxge(4), oce(4) and  ixv(4) no longer
  use drbr_stats_update(), and update ifnet stats theirselves.

o bxe(4) was the most correct driver, it didn't call
  drbr_stats_update(), thus it was the only driver accurate under
  moderate load. Now it also maintains stats itself.

o ixgbe(4) had already taken stats from hardware, so just
  - drop software stats updating.
  - take multicast packet count from hardware as well.

o mxge(4) just no longer needs NO_SLOW_STATS define.

o cxgb(4), cxgbe(4) need no change, since they obtain stats
  from hardware.
