When we are passing mbuf to IPSec processing via ipsec[46]_process_packet(),
we hold one reference to security policy and release it just after return
from this function. But IPSec processing can be deffered and when we release
reference to security policy after ipsec[46]_process_packet(), user can
delete this security policy from SPDB. And when IPSec processing will be
done, xform's callback function will do access to already freed memory.
To fix this move KEY_FREESP() into callback function. Now IPSec code will
release reference to SP after processing will be finished.

additional arguments - buffer and size of this buffer.
ipsec_address() is used to convert sockaddr structure to presentation
format. The IPv6 part of this function returns pointer to the on-stack
buffer and at the moment when it will be used by caller, it becames
invalid. IPv4 version uses 4 static buffers and returns pointer to
new buffer each time when it called. But anyway it is still possible
to get corrupted data when several threads will use this function.
ipsec_logsastr() is used to format string about SA entry. It also
uses static buffer and has the same problem with concurrent threads.
To fix these problems add the buffer pointer and size of this
buffer to arguments. Now each caller will pass buffer and its size
to these functions. Also convert all places where these functions
are used (except disabled code).
And now ipsec_address() uses inet_ntop() function from libkern.

ipsec6_common_input_cb() uses partial copy of ip6_input() to parse
headers. But this isn't correct, when we use tunnel mode IPSec.
When we stripped outer IPv6 header from the decrypted packet, it
can become IPv4 packet and should be handled by ip_input. Also when
we use tunnel mode IPSec with IPv6 traffic, we should pass decrypted
packet with inner IPv6 header to ip6_input, it will correctly handle
it and also can decide to forward it.
The "skip" variable points to offset where payload starts. In tunnel
mode we reset it to zero after stripping the outer header. So, when
it is zero, we should requeue mbuf via netisr.

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

threads:
- Support up to one netisr thread per CPU, each processings its own
workstream, or set of per-protocol queues. Threads may be bound
to specific CPUs, or allowed to migrate, based on a global policy.
In the future it would be desirable to support topology-centric
policies, such as "one netisr per package".
- Allow each protocol to advertise an ordering policy, which can
currently be one of:
NETISR_POLICY_SOURCE: packets must maintain ordering with respect to
an implicit or explicit source (such as an interface or socket).
NETISR_POLICY_FLOW: make use of mbuf flow identifiers to place work,
as well as allowing protocols to provide a flow generation function
for mbufs without flow identifers (m2flow). Falls back on
NETISR_POLICY_SOURCE if now flow ID is available.
NETISR_POLICY_CPU: allow protocols to inspect and assign a CPU for
each packet handled by netisr (m2cpuid).
- Provide utility functions for querying the number of workstreams
being used, as well as a mapping function from workstream to CPU ID,
which protocols may use in work placement decisions.
- Add explicit interfaces to get and set per-protocol queue limits, and
get and clear drop counters, which query data or apply changes across
all workstreams.
- Add a more extensible netisr registration interface, in which
protocols declare 'struct netisr_handler' structures for each
registered NETISR_ type. These include name, handler function,
optional mbuf to flow ID function, optional mbuf to CPU ID function,
queue limit, and ordering policy. Padding is present to allow these
to be expanded in the future. If no queue limit is declared, then
a default is used.
- Queue limits are now per-workstream, and raised from the previous
IFQ_MAXLEN default of 50 to 256.
- All protocols are updated to use the new registration interface, and
with the exception of netnatm, default queue limits. Most protocols
register as NETISR_POLICY_SOURCE, except IPv4 and IPv6, which use
NETISR_POLICY_FLOW, and will therefore take advantage of driver-
generated flow IDs if present.
- Formalize a non-packet based interface between interface polling and
the netisr, rather than having polling pretend to be two protocols.
Provide two explicit hooks in the netisr worker for start and end
events for runs: netisr_poll() and netisr_pollmore(), as well as a
function, netisr_sched_poll(), to allow the polling code to schedule
netisr execution. DEVICE_POLLING still embeds single-netisr
assumptions in its implementation, so for now if it is compiled into
the kernel, a single and un-bound netisr thread is enforced
regardless of tunable configuration.
In the default configuration, the new netisr implementation maintains
the same basic assumptions as the previous implementation: a single,
un-bound worker thread processes all deferred work, and direct dispatch
is enabled by default wherever possible.
Performance measurement shows a marginal performance improvement over
the old implementation due to the use of batched dequeue.
An rmlock is used to synchronize use and registration/unregistration
using the framework; currently, synchronized use is disabled
(replicating current netisr policy) due to a measurable 3%-6% hit in
ping-pong micro-benchmarking. It will be enabled once further rmlock
optimization has taken place. However, in practice, netisrs are
rarely registered or unregistered at runtime.

previously always pointing to the default vnet context, to a
dynamically changing thread-local one. The currvnet context
should be set on entry to networking code via CURVNET_SET() macros,
and reverted to previous state via CURVNET_RESTORE(). Recursions
on curvnet are permitted, though strongly discuouraged.
This change should have no functional impact on nooptions VIMAGE
kernel builds, where CURVNET_* macros expand to whitespace.
The curthread->td_vnet (aka curvnet) variable's purpose is to be an
indicator of the vnet context in which the current network-related
operation takes place, in case we cannot deduce the current vnet
context from any other source, such as by looking at mbuf's
m->m_pkthdr.rcvif->if_vnet, sockets's so->so_vnet etc. Moreover, so
far curvnet has turned out to be an invaluable consistency checking
aid: it helps to catch cases when sockets, ifnets or any other
vnet-aware structures may have leaked from one vnet to another.
The exact placement of the CURVNET_SET() / CURVNET_RESTORE() macros
was a result of an empirical iterative process, whith an aim to
reduce recursions on CURVNET_SET() to a minimum, while still reducing
the scope of CURVNET_SET() to networking only operations - the
alternative would be calling CURVNET_SET() on each system call entry.
In general, curvnet has to be set in three typicall cases: when
processing socket-related requests from userspace or from within the
kernel; when processing inbound traffic flowing from device drivers
to upper layers of the networking stack, and when executing
timer-driven networking functions.
This change also introduces a DDB subcommand to show the list of all
vnet instances.

active network stack instance. Turning on options VIMAGE at compile
time yields the following changes relative to default kernel build:
1) V_ accessor macros for virtualized variables resolve to structure
fields via base pointers, instead of being resolved as fields in global
structs or plain global variables. As an example, V_ifnet becomes:
options VIMAGE: ((struct vnet_net *) vnet_net)->_ifnet
default build: vnet_net_0._ifnet
options VIMAGE_GLOBALS: ifnet
2) INIT_VNET_* macros will declare and set up base pointers to be used
by V_ accessor macros, instead of resolving to whitespace:
INIT_VNET_NET(ifp->if_vnet); becomes
struct vnet_net *vnet_net = (ifp->if_vnet)->mod_data[VNET_MOD_NET];
3) Memory for vnet modules registered via vnet_mod_register() is now
allocated at run time in sys/kern/kern_vimage.c, instead of per vnet
module structs being declared as globals. If required, vnet modules
can now request the framework to provide them with allocated bzeroed
memory by filling in the vmi_size field in their vmi_modinfo structures.
4) structs socket, ifnet, inpcbinfo, tcpcb and syncache_head are
extended to hold a pointer to the parent vnet. options VIMAGE builds
will fill in those fields as required.
5) curvnet is introduced as a new global variable in options VIMAGE
builds, always pointing to the default and only struct vnet.
6) struct sysctl_oid has been extended with additional two fields to
store major and minor virtualization module identifiers, oid_v_subs and
oid_v_mod. SYSCTL_V_* family of macros will fill in those fields
accordingly, and store the offset in the appropriate vnet container
struct in oid_arg1.
In sysctl handlers dealing with virtualized sysctls, the
SYSCTL_RESOLVE_V_ARG1() macro will compute the address of the target
variable and make it available in arg1 variable for further processing.
Unused fields in structs vnet_inet, vnet_inet6 and vnet_ipfw have
been deleted.

This has the effect that IPv6 multicast traffic won't trigger
an SPI allocation when IPSEC is in use, however, this obviously
needs to stomp on locks, and IN6_LOOKUP_MULTI() is about to go away.
This definitely needs to be revisited before 8.x is branched as
a release branch.
KAME had explicit checks at one point using it, so just hide it behind

dependency tracking and ordering enforcement.
With this change, per-vnet initialization functions introduced with
r190787 are no longer directly called from traditional initialization
functions (which cc in most cases inlined to pre-r190787 code), but are
instead registered via the vnet framework first, and are invoked only
after all prerequisite modules have been initialized. In the long run,
this framework should allow us to both initialize and dismantle
multiple vnet instances in a correct order.
The problem this change aims to solve is how to replay the
initialization sequence of various network stack components, which
have been traditionally triggered via different mechanisms (SYSINIT,
protosw). Note that this initialization sequence was and still can be
subtly different depending on whether certain pieces of code have been
statically compiled into the kernel, loaded as modules by boot
loader, or kldloaded at run time.
The approach is simple - we record the initialization sequence
established by the traditional mechanisms whenever vnet_mod_register()
is called for a particular vnet module. The vnet_mod_register_multi()
variant allows a single initializer function to be registered multiple
times but with different arguments - currently this is only used in
kern/uipc_domain.c by net_add_domain() with different struct domain *
as arguments, which allows for protosw-registered initialization
routines to be invoked in a correct order by the new vnet
initialization framework.
For the purpose of identifying vnet modules, each vnet module has to
have a unique ID, which is statically assigned in sys/vimage.h.
Dynamic assignment of vnet module IDs is not supported yet.
A vnet module may specify a single prerequisite module at registration
time by filling in the vmi_dependson field of its vnet_modinfo struct
with the ID of the module it depends on. Unless specified otherwise,
all vnet modules depend on VNET_MOD_NET (container for ifnet list head,
rt_tables etc.), which thus has to and will always be initialized
first. The framework will panic if it detects any unresolved
dependencies before completing system initialization. Detection of
unresolved dependencies for vnet modules registered after boot
(kldloaded modules) is not provided.
Note that the fact that each module can specify only a single
prerequisite may become problematic in the long run. In particular,
INET6 depends on INET being already instantiated, due to TCP / UDP
structures residing in INET container. IPSEC also depends on INET,
which will in turn additionally complicate making INET6-only kernel
configs a reality.
The entire registration framework can be compiled out by turning on the
VIMAGE_GLOBALS kernel config option.

from existing functions for initializing global state.
At this stage, the new per-vnet initializer functions are
directly called from the existing global initialization code,
which should in most cases result in compiler inlining those
new functions, hence yielding a near-zero functional change.
Modify the existing initializer functions which are invoked via
protosw, like ip_init() et. al., to allow them to be invoked
multiple times, i.e. per each vnet. Global state, if any,
is initialized only if such functions are called within the
context of vnet0, which will be determined via the
IS_DEFAULT_VNET(curvnet) check (currently always true).
While here, V_irtualize a few remaining global UMA zones
used by net/netinet/netipsec networking code. While it is
not yet clear to me or anybody else whether this is the right
thing to do, at this stage this makes the code more readable,
and makes it easier to track uncollected UMA-zone-backed
objects on vnet removal. In the long run, it's quite possible
that some form of shared use of UMA zone pools among multiple
vnets should be considered.
