1e77c1056a Remove unused VNET_SET() and related macros; only VNET_GET() is
ever actually used.  Rename VNET_GET() to VNET() to shorten
variable references.

eddfbb763d Build on Jeff Roberson's linker-set based dynamic per-CPU allocator
(DPCPU), as suggested by Peter Wemm, and implement a new per-virtual
network stack memory allocator.  Modify vnet to use the allocator
instead of monolithic global container structures (vinet, ...).  This
change solves many binary compatibility problems associated with
VIMAGE, and restores ELF symbols for virtualized global variables.

Each virtualized global variable exists as a "reference copy", and also
once per virtual network stack.  Virtualized global variables are
tagged at compile-time, placing the in a special linker set, which is
loaded into a contiguous region of kernel memory.  Virtualized global
variables in the base kernel are linked as normal, but those in modules
are copied and relocated to a reserved portion of the kernel's vnet
region with the help of a the kernel linker.

Virtualized global variables exist in per-vnet memory set up when the
network stack instance is created, and are initialized statically from
the reference copy.  Run-time access occurs via an accessor macro, which
converts from the current vnet and requested symbol to a per-vnet
address.  When "options VIMAGE" is not compiled into the kernel, normal
global ELF symbols will be used instead and indirection is avoided.

This change restores static initialization for network stack global
variables, restores support for non-global symbols and types, eliminates
the need for many subsystem constructors, eliminates large per-subsystem
structures that caused many binary compatibility issues both for
monitoring applications (netstat) and kernel modules, removes the
per-function INIT_VNET_*() macros throughout the stack, eliminates the
need for vnet_symmap ksym(2) munging, and eliminates duplicate
definitions of virtualized globals under VIMAGE_GLOBALS.

Bump __FreeBSD_version and update UPDATING.

86413abf5f Put a global variables, which were virtualized but formerly
missed under VIMAGE_GLOBAL.

Start putting the extern declarations of the  virtualized globals
under VIMAGE_GLOBAL as the globals themsevles are already.
This will help by the time when we are going to remove the globals
entirely.

While there garbage collect a few dead externs from ip6_var.h.

4d896055ce Remove unused support for local and foreign addresses in generic raw
socket support.  These utility routines are used only for routing and
pfkey sockets, neither of which have a notion of address, so were
required to mock up fake socket addresses to avoid connection
requirements for applications that did not specify their own fake
addresses (most of them).

Quite a bit of the removed code is #ifdef notdef, since raw sockets
don't support bind() or connect() in practice.  Removing this
simplifies the raw socket implementation, and removes two (commented
out) uses of dtom(9).

Fake addresses passed to sendto(2) by applications are ignored for
compatibility reasons, but this is now done in a more consistent way
(and with a comment).  Possibly, EINVAL could be returned here in
the future if it is determined that no applications depend on the
semantic inconsistency of specifying a destination address for a
protocol without address support, but this will require some amount
of careful surveying.

NB: This does not affect netinet, netinet6, or other wire protocol
raw sockets, which provide their own independent infrastructure with
control block address support specific to the protocol.

ba8cd2c528 Clarify comments and prototypes in raw_cb.h:
- the protosw entries are used directly
- the usrreq functions are library routines, generally wrapped by
  consumers rather than being used directly
- the usrreq structure entries are likewise typically wrapped

Remove the rather incorrect #if 0'd pr_input_t prototype for raw_input.

730262cdf7 Lock down rawcb_list, a global list of control blocks for raw sockets,
using rawcb_mtx.  Hold this mutex while modifying or iterating over
the control list; this means that the mutex is held over calls into
socket delivery code, which no longer causes a lock order reversal as
the routing socket code uses a netisr to avoid recursing socket ->
routing -> socket.

Note: Locking of IPsec consumers of rawcb_list is not included in this
commit.

make the kernel aware that there are smaller units of scheduling than the
process. (but only allow one thread per process at this time).
This is functionally equivalent to teh previousl -current except
that there is a thread associated with each process.

Sorry john! (your next MFC will be a doosie!)

664a31e496 Change #ifdef KERNEL to #ifdef _KERNEL in the public headers. "KERNEL"
is an application space macro and the applications are supposed to be free
to use it as they please (but cannot).  This is consistant with the other
BSD's who made this change quite some time ago.  More commits to come.

a29f300e80 The long-awaited mega-massive-network-code- cleanup. Part I.
This commit includes the following changes:
1) Old-style (pr_usrreq()) protocols are no longer supported, the compatibility
glue for them is deleted, and the kernel will panic on boot if any are compiled
in.

2) Certain protocol entry points are modified to take a process structure,
so they they can easily tell whether or not it is possible to sleep, and
also to access credentials.

3) SS_PRIV is no more, and with it goes the SO_PRIVSTATE setsockopt()
call.  Protocols should use the process pointer they are now passed.

4) The PF_LOCAL and PF_ROUTE families have been updated to use the new
style, as has the `raw' skeleton family.

5) PF_LOCAL sockets now obey the process's umask when creating a socket
in the filesystem.

As a result, LINT is now broken.  I'm hoping that some enterprising hacker
with a bit more time will either make the broken bits work (should be
easy for netipx) or dike them out.

b62d102cbb Uniformized pr_ctlinput protosw functions. The third arg is now `void
*' instead of caddr_t and it isn't optional (it never was).  Most of the
netipx (and netns) pr_ctlinput functions abuse the second arg instead of
using the third arg but fixing this is beyond the scope of this round
of changes.
