Add XXX comments to mark places which need to be taken care of
if we want to remove this part of the kernel from Giant.
Add a comment on a potential performance problem with ip_forward()
packet forwarding state ("annotations") during ip processing.
The code is considerably cleaner now.
The variables removed by this change are:
ip_divert_cookie used by divert sockets
ip_fw_fwd_addr used for transparent ip redirection
last_pkt used by dynamic pipes in dummynet
Removal of the first two has been done by carrying the annotations
into volatile structs prepended to the mbuf chains, and adding
appropriate code to add/remove annotations in the routines which
make use of them, i.e. ip_input(), ip_output(), tcp_input(),
bdg_forward(), ether_demux(), ether_output_frame(), div_output().
On passing, remove a bug in divert handling of fragmented packet.
Now it is the fragment at offset 0 which sets the divert status of
the whole packet, whereas formerly it was the last incoming fragment
to decide.
Removal of last_pkt required a change in the interface of ip_fw_chk()
and dummynet_io(). On passing, use the same mechanism for dummynet
annotations and for divert/forward annotations.
option IPFIREWALL_FORWARD is effectively useless, the code to
implement it is very small and is now in by default to avoid the
obfuscation of conditionally compiled code.
NOTES:
* there is at least one global variable left, sro_fwd, in ip_output().
I am not sure if/how this can be removed.
* I have deliberately avoided gratuitous style changes in this commit
to avoid cluttering the diffs. Minor stule cleanup will likely be
necessary
* this commit only focused on the IP layer. I am sure there is a
number of global variables used in the TCP and maybe UDP stack.
* despite the number of files touched, there are absolutely no API's
or data structures changed by this commit (except the interfaces of
ip_fw_chk() and dummynet_io(), which are internal anyways), so
an MFC is quite safe and unintrusive (and desirable, given the
improved readability of the code).

Ipfw processing of frames at layer 2 can be enabled by the sysctl variable
net.link.ether.ipfw=1
Consider this feature experimental, because right now, the firewall
is invoked in the places indicated below, and controlled by the
sysctl variables listed on the right. As a consequence, a packet
can be filtered from 1 to 4 times depending on the path it follows,
which might make a ruleset a bit hard to follow.
I will add an ipfw option to tell if we want a given rule to apply

importantly, this prevents a easily-reproduceable data-corruption bug when

the new sdl_data field's 46 byte limit if the interface name exceeds 6

rules.
it also takes the opporunity to compare the expiration of the dynamic
rules with the current time and either marks them for deletion or simply

expiration GC) with no spl protection whatsoever. it was possible for
the dynamic rule(s) to be ripped out from under the request before it
had completed, resulting in corrupt memory dereferencing.
