This change is build on top of nexthop objects introduced in r359823.
Nexthops are separate datastructures, containing all necessary information
to perform packet forwarding such as gateway interface and mtu. Nexthops
are shared among the routes, providing more pre-computed cache-efficient
data while requiring less memory. Splitting the LPM code and the attached
data solves multiple long-standing problems in the routing layer,
drastically reduces the coupling with outher parts of the stack and allows
to transparently introduce faster lookup algorithms.
Route caching was (re)introduced to minimise (slow) routing lookups, allowing
for notably better performance for large TCP senders. Caching works by
acquiring rtentry reference, which is protected by per-rtentry mutex.
If the routing table is changed (checked by comparing the rtable generation id)
or link goes down, cache record gets withdrawn.
Nexthops have the same reference counting interface, backed by refcount(9).
This change merely replaces rtentry with the actual forwarding nextop as a
cached object, which is mostly mechanical. Other moving parts like cache
cleanup on rtable change remains the same.

When shutting down a VNET we did not cleanup the fragmentation hashes.
This has multiple problems: (1) leak memory but also (2) leak on the
global counters, which might eventually lead to a problem on a system
starting and stopping a lot of vnets and dealing with a lot of IPv6
fragments that the counters/limits would be exhausted and processing
would no longer take place.
Unfortunately we do not have a useable variable to indicate when
per-VNET initialization of frag6 has happened (or when destroy happened)
so introduce a boolean to flag this. This is needed here as well as
it was in r353635 for ip_reass.c in order to avoid tripping over the
already destroyed locks if interfaces go away after the frag6 destroy.
While splitting things up convert the TRY_LOCK to a LOCK operation in
now frag6_drain_one(). The try-lock was derived from a manual hand-rolled
implementation and carried forward all the time. We no longer can afford
not to get the lock as that would mean we would continue to leak memory.
Assert that all the buckets are empty before destroying to lock to
ensure long-term stability of a clean shutdown.

instead of a linear array.
The multicast memberships for the inpcb structure are protected by a
non-sleepable lock, INP_WLOCK(), which needs to be dropped when
calling the underlying possibly sleeping if_ioctl() method. When using
a linear array to keep track of multicast memberships, the computed
memory location of the multicast filter may suddenly change, due to
concurrent insertion or removal of elements in the linear array. This
in turn leads to various invalid memory access issues and kernel
panics.
To avoid this problem, put all multicast memberships on a STAILQ based
list. Then the memory location of the IPv4 and IPv6 multicast filters
become fixed during their lifetime and use after free and memory leak
issues are easier to track, for example by: vmstat -m | grep multi

IPv6-Only networks without the option being set in RA messages.

Add a check, when receiving the IPv6-Only RA flag to see if the receiving
interface has any IPv4 configured. If it does, ignore the IPv6-Only flag.
Add a per-VNET global sysctl, which is on by default, to not process the automatic
RA IPv6-Only flag. This way an administrator (if this is compiled in) has control
over the behaviour in case the node still relies on IPv4.
The KPI have been reviewed and cleansed of features that were planned
back 20 years ago and never implemented. The pfil(9) internals have
been made opaque to protocols with only returned types and function
declarations exposed. The KPI is made more strict, but at the same time
more extensible, as kernel uses same command structures that userland
ioctl uses.
In nutshell [KA]PI is about declaring filtering points, declaring
filters and linking and unlinking them together.
New [KA]PI makes it possible to reconfigure pfil(9) configuration:
change order of hooks, rehook filter from one filtering point to a
different one, disconnect a hook on output leaving it on input only,
prepend/append a filter to existing list of filters.
Now it possible for a single packet filter to provide multiple rulesets
that may be linked to different points. Think of per-interface ACLs in
Cisco or Juniper. None of existing packet filters yet support that,
however limited usage is already possible, e.g. default ruleset can
be moved to single interface, as soon as interface would pride their
filtering points.
Another future feature is possiblity to create pfil heads, that provide
not an mbuf pointer but just a memory pointer with length. That would
allow filtering at very early stages of a packet lifecycle, e.g. when
packet has just been received by a NIC and no mbuf was yet allocated.

There is a hashing algorithm which should distribute IPv6 reassembly
queues across the available buckets in a relatively even way. However,
if there is a flaw in the hashing algorithm which allows a large number
of IPv6 fragment reassembly queues to end up in a single bucket, a per-
bucket limit could help mitigate the performance impact of this flaw.
Implement such a limit, with a default of twice the maximum number of
reassembly queues divided by the number of buckets. Recalculate the
limit any time the maximum number of reassembly queues changes.
However, allow the user to override the value using a sysctl
(net.inet6.ip6.maxfragbucketsize).

The IPv4 fragment reassembly code supports a limit on the number of
fragments per packet. The default limit is currently 17 fragments.
Among other things, this limit serves to limit the number of fragments
the code must parse when trying to reassembly a packet.
Add a limit to the IPv6 reassembly code. By default, limit a packet
to 65 fragments (64 on the queue, plus one final fragment to complete
the packet). This allows an average fragment size of 1,008 bytes, which
should be sufficient to hold a fragment. (Recall that the IPv6 minimum
MTU is 1280 bytes. Therefore, this configuration allows a full-size
IPv6 packet to be fragmented on a link with the minimum MTU and still
carry approximately 272 bytes of headers before the fragmented portion
of the packet.)
Users can adjust this limit using the net.inet6.ip6.maxfragsperpacket
sysctl.

The IPv6 reassembly fragment limit is based on the number of mbuf clusters,
which are a global resource. However, the limit is currently applied
on a per-VNET basis. Given enough VNETs (or given sufficient customization
on enough VNETs), it is possible that the sum of all the VNET fragment
limits will exceed the number of mbuf clusters available in the system.
Given the fact that the fragment limits are intended (at least in part) to
regulate access to a global resource, the IPv6 fragment limit should
be applied on a global basis.
Note that it is still possible to disable fragmentation for a particular
VNET by setting the net.inet6.ip6.maxfragpackets sysctl to 0 for that
VNET. In addition, it is now possible to disable fragmentation globally
by setting the net.inet6.ip6.maxfrags sysctl to 0.

The first mbuf to attach a cluster stores the refcount. The further mbufs

mbuf is freed only when the last reference is freed.
The benefit over refcounts stored in separate slabs is that now refcounts

This mirrors the basic IPv4 implementation - IPv6 packets under RSS
now are checked for a correct RSS hash and if one isn't provided,
it's done in software.
This only handles the initial receive - it doesn't yet handle
reinjecting / rehashing packets after being decapsulated from
various tunneling setups. That'll come in some follow-up work.
For non-RSS users, this is almost a giant no-op.
It does change a couple of ipv6 methods to use const mbuf * instead of
mbuf * but it doesn't have any functional changes.
So, the following now occurs:
* If the NIC doesn't do any RSS hashing, it's all done in software.
Single-queue, non-RSS NICs will now have the RX path distributed
into multiple receive netisr queues.
* If the NIC provides the wrong hash (eg only IPv6 hash when we needed
an IPv6 TCP hash, or IPv6 UDP hash when we expected IPv6 hash)
then the hash is recalculated.
* .. if the hash is recalculated, it'll end up being injected into
the correct netisr queue for v6 processing.

- A new per-interface knob IFF_ND6_NO_RADR and sysctl IPV6CTL_NO_RADR.
This controls if accepting a route in an RA message as the default route.
The default value for each interface can be set by net.inet6.ip6.no_radr.
The system wide default value is 0.
- A new sysctl: net.inet6.ip6.norbit_raif. This controls if setting R-bit in
NA on RA accepting interfaces. The default is 0 (R-bit is set based on
net.inet6.ip6.forwarding).
Background:
IPv6 host/router model suggests a router sends an RA and a host accepts it for
router discovery. Because of that, KAME implementation does not allow
accepting RAs when net.inet6.ip6.forwarding=1. Accepting RAs on a router can
make the routing table confused since it can change the default router
unintentionally.
However, in practice there are cases where we cannot distinguish a host from
a router clearly. For example, a customer edge router often works as a host
against the ISP, and as a router against the LAN at the same time. Another
example is a complex network configurations like an L2TP tunnel for IPv6
connection to Internet over an Ethernet link with another native IPv6 subnet.
In this case, the physical interface for the native IPv6 subnet works as a
host, and the pseudo-interface for L2TP works as the default IP forwarding
route.
Problem:
Disabling processing RA messages when net.inet6.ip6.forwarding=1 and
accepting them when net.inet6.ip6.forward=0 cause the following practical
issues:
- A router cannot perform SLAAC. It becomes a problem if a box has
multiple interfaces and you want to use SLAAC on some of them, for
example. A customer edge router for IPv6 Internet access service
using an IPv6-over-IPv6 tunnel sometimes needs SLAAC on the
physical interface for administration purpose; updating firmware
and so on (link-local addresses can be used there, but GUAs by
SLAAC are often used for scalability).
- When a host has multiple IPv6 interfaces and it receives multiple RAs on
them, controlling the default route is difficult. Router preferences
defined in RFC 4191 works only when the routers on the links are
under your control.
Details of Implementation Changes:
Router Advertisement messages will be accepted even when
net.inet6.ip6.forwarding=1. More precisely, the conditions are as
follow:
(ACCEPT_RTADV && !NO_RADR && !ip6.forwarding)
=> Normal RA processing on that interface. (as IPv6 host)
(ACCEPT_RTADV && (NO_RADR || ip6.forwarding))
=> Accept RA but add the router to the defroute list with
rtlifetime=0 unconditionally. This effectively prevents
from setting the received router address as the box's
default route.
(!ACCEPT_RTADV)
=> No RA processing on that interface.
ACCEPT_RTADV and NO_RADR are per-interface knob. In short, all interface
are classified as "RA-accepting" or not. An RA-accepting interface always
processes RA messages regardless of ip6.forwarding. The difference caused by
NO_RADR or ip6.forwarding is whether the RA source address is considered as
the default router or not.
R-bit in NA on the RA accepting interfaces is set based on
net.inet6.ip6.forwarding. While RFC 6204 W-1 rule (for CPE case) suggests
a router should disable the R-bit completely even when the box has
net.inet6.ip6.forwarding=1, I believe there is no technical reason with
doing so. This behavior can be set by a new sysctl net.inet6.ip6.norbit_raif
(the default is 0).
Usage:
# ifconfig fxp0 inet6 accept_rtadv
=> accept RA on fxp0
# ifconfig fxp0 inet6 accept_rtadv no_radr
=> accept RA on fxp0 but ignore default route information in it.
# sysctl net.inet6.ip6.norbit_no_radr=1
=> R-bit in NAs on RA accepting interfaces will always be set to 0.
In protosw we define pr_protocol as short, while on the wire
it is an uint8_t. That way we can have "internal" protocols
like DIVERT, SEND or gaps for modules (PROTO_SPACER).
Switch ipproto_{un,}register to accept a short protocol number(*)
and do an upfront check for valid boundries. With this we
also consistently report EPROTONOSUPPORT for out of bounds
protocols, as we did for proto == 0. This allows a caller
to not error for this case, which is especially important
if we want to automatically call these from domain handling.
