The kernel will reject very large tables to avoid resource exhaustion
attacks. Some users run into this limit with legitimate table
configurations.
The error message in this case was not very clear:
pf.conf:1: cannot define table nets: Invalid argument
pfctl: Syntax error in config file: pf rules not loaded
If a table definition fails we now check the request_maxcount sysctl,
and if we've tried to create more than that point the user at
net.pf.request_maxcount:
pf.conf:1: cannot define table nets: too many elements.
Consider increasing net.pf.request_maxcount.

parent queue bandwidths were smaller than the sum of their child

When we skip on a group the kernel will automatically skip on the member
interfaces. We still need to update our own cache though, or we risk
overruling the kernel afterwards.
This manifested as 'set skip' working initially, then not working when
the rules were reloaded.

higher bandwidth interfaces. The new value is used above 2.5 Gbps,
which is the highest standard rate that could be used prior to
r338209, so the default behavior for all existing systems should
remain the same.
The value of 128 chosen is a balance between being big enough to
reduce potential precision/quantization effects stemming from frequent
bucket refills over small time intervals and being small enough to
prevent a greedy driver from burst dequeuing more packets than it has
available hardware ring slots for whenever altq transitions from idle
to backlogged.

2^32 bps or greater to be used. Prior to this, bandwidth parameters
would simply wrap at the 2^32 boundary. The computations in the HFSC
scheduler and token bucket regulator have been modified to operate
correctly up to at least 100 Gbps. No other algorithms have been
examined or modified for correct operation above 2^32 bps (some may
have existing computation resolution or overflow issues at rates below
that threshold). pfctl(8) will now limit non-HFSC bandwidth
parameters to 2^32 - 1 before passing them to the kernel.
The extensions to the pf(4) ioctl interface have been made in a
backwards-compatible way by versioning affected data structures,
supporting all versions in the kernel, and implementing macros that
will cause existing code that consumes that interface to use version 0
without source modifications. If version 0 consumers of the interface
are used against a new kernel that has had bandwidth parameters of
2^32 or greater configured by updated tools, such bandwidth parameters
will be reported as 2^32 - 1 bps by those old consumers.
All in-tree consumers of the pf(4) interface have been updated. To
update out-of-tree consumers to the latest version of the interface,
define PFIOC_USE_LATEST ahead of any includes and use the code of
pfctl(8) as a guide for the ioctls of interest.

Noted by cross compilation with gcc-mips.
Normally pf rules are expected to do one of two things: pass the traffic or
block it. Blocking can be silent - "drop", or loud - "return", "return-rst",
"return-icmp". Yet there is a 3rd category of traffic passing through pf:
Packets matching a "pass" rule but when applying the rule fails. This happens
when redirection table is empty or when src node or state creation fails. Such
rules always fail silently without notifying the sender.
Allow users to configure this behaviour too, so that pf returns an error packet
in these cases.

In the pf rc.d script the output of `/etc/rc.d/pf status` or `/etc/rc.d/pf
onestatus` always provided an exit status of zero. This made it fiddly to
programmatically determine if pf was running or not.

On reload we used to first flush everything, including the list of skipped
interfaces. This can lead to termination of these connections if they send
packets before the new configuration is applied.
Note that this doesn't currently happen on 12 or 11, because of special EACCES
handling introduced in r315514. This special behaviour in tcp_output() may
change, hence the fix in pfctl.

Mainly focus on files that use BSD 2-Clause license, however the tool I
was using misidentified many licenses so this was mostly a manual - error
prone - task.
The Software Package Data Exchange (SPDX) group provides a specification
to make it easier for automated tools to detect and summarize well known
opensource licenses. We are gradually adopting the specification, noting
that the tags are considered only advisory and do not, in any way,
superceed or replace the license texts.
No functional change intended.
The route_host parsing code set the interface name, but only for the first
node_host in the list. If that one happened to be the inet6 address and the
rule wanted an inet address it'd get removed by remove_invalid_hosts() later
on, and we'd have no interface name.
We must set the interface name for all node_host entries in the list, not just
the first one.

Copy the most important test cases from OpenBSD's corresponding
src/regress/sbin/pfctl, those that run pfctl on a test input file and check
correctness of its output. We have also added some new tests using the same
format.
The tests consist of a collection of input files (pf*.in) and
corresponding output files (pf*.ok). We run pfctl -nv on the input
files and check that the output matches the output files. If any
discrepancy is discovered during future development in the source
tree, we know that a regression bug has been introduced into the tree.
