This is the foundational change for the routing subsytem rearchitecture.
More details and goals are available in https://reviews.freebsd.org/D24141 .
This patch introduces concept of nexthop objects and new nexthop-based
routing KPI.
Nexthops are objects, containing all necessary information for performing
the packet output decision. Output interface, mtu, flags, gw address goes
there. For most of the cases, these objects will serve the same role as
the struct rtentry is currently serving.
Typically there will be low tens of such objects for the router even with
multiple BGP full-views, as these objects will be shared between routing
entries. This allows to store more information in the nexthop.
New KPI:
struct nhop_object *fib4_lookup(uint32_t fibnum, struct in_addr dst,
uint32_t scopeid, uint32_t flags, uint32_t flowid);
struct nhop_object *fib6_lookup(uint32_t fibnum, const struct in6_addr *dst6,
uint32_t scopeid, uint32_t flags, uint32_t flowid);
These 2 function are intended to replace all all flavours of
<in_|in6_>rtalloc[1]<_ign><_fib>, mpath functions and the previous
fib[46]-generation functions.
Upon successful lookup, they return nexthop object which is guaranteed to
exist within current NET_EPOCH. If longer lifetime is desired, one can
specify NHR_REF as a flag and get a referenced version of the nexthop.
Reference semantic closely resembles rtentry one, allowing sed-style conversion.
Additionally, another 2 functions are introduced to support uRPF functionality
inside variety of our firewalls. Their primary goal is to hide the multipath
implementation details inside the routing subsystem, greatly simplifying
firewalls implementation:
int fib4_lookup_urpf(uint32_t fibnum, struct in_addr dst, uint32_t scopeid,
uint32_t flags, const struct ifnet *src_if);
int fib6_lookup_urpf(uint32_t fibnum, const struct in6_addr *dst6, uint32_t scopeid,
uint32_t flags, const struct ifnet *src_if);
All functions have a separate scopeid argument, paving way to eliminating IPv6 scope
embedding and allowing to support IPv4 link-locals in the future.
Structure changes:
* rtentry gets new 'rt_nhop' pointer, slightly growing the overall size.
* rib_head gets new 'rnh_preadd' callback pointer, slightly growing overall sz.
Old KPI:
During the transition state old and new KPI will coexists. As there are another 4-5
decent-sized conversion patches, it will probably take a couple of weeks.
To support both KPIs, fields not required by the new KPI (most of rtentry) has to be
kept, resulting in the temporary size increase.
Once conversion is finished, rtentry will notably shrink.

The netstat/route.c was the last abuser of struct ifnet and struct
rtentry in the tree. With this change if_var.h can become kernel

projects/routing can go forward.

AppleTalk was a network transport protocol for Apple Macintosh devices
in 80s and then 90s. Starting with Mac OS X in 2000 the AppleTalk was
a legacy protocol and primary networking protocol is TCP/IP. The last
Mac OS X release to support AppleTalk happened in 2009. The same year
routing equipment vendors (namely Cisco) end their support.
Thus, AppleTalk won't be supported in FreeBSD 11.0-RELEASE.
IPX was a network transport protocol in Novell's NetWare network operating
system from late 80s and then 90s. The NetWare itself switched to TCP/IP
as default transport in 1998. Later, in this century the Novell Open
Enterprise Server became successor of Novell NetWare. The last release
that claimed to still support IPX was OES 2 in 2007. Routing equipment
vendors (e.g. Cisco) discontinued support for IPX in 2011.
Thus, IPX won't be supported in FreeBSD 11.0-RELEASE.

instead of peeking inside in-kernel radix via kget.
This permits us to change kernel structures without breaking userland.
Additionally, this change provide more reliable and faster output.
`Refs` and `Use` fields available in IPv4 by default (and via -W
for other families) were removed. `Refs` is radix-specific thing
which is not informative for users. `Use` field value is handy sometimes,
but a) current API does not support it and b) I'm not sure we will
support per-rte pcpu counters in near future.
Old method of retrieving data is still supported (either by defining
NewTree=0 or running netstat with -A). However, Refs/Use fields are
hidden.

libkvm digging in kernel memory. This is possible since r231506 made
getifaddrs(3) to supply if_data for each ifaddr.
The pros of this change is that now netstat(1) doesn't know about kernel
struct ifnet and struct ifaddr. And these structs are about to change
significantly in head soon. New netstat binary will work well with 10.0
and any future kernel.
The cons is that now it isn't possible to obtain interface statistics
from a vmcore.
Functions intpr() and sidewaysintpr() were rewritten from scratch.
The output of netstat(1) has underwent the following changes:
1) The MTU is not printed for protocol addresses, since it has no notion.
Dash is printed instead. If there would be a strong desire to return
previous output, it is doable.
2) Output interface queue drops are not printed. Currently this data isn't
available to userland via any API. We plan to drop 'struct ifqueue' from
'struct ifnet' very soon, so old kvm(3) access to queue drops is soon
to be broken, too. The plan is that drivers would handle their queues
theirselves and a new field in if_data would be updated in case of drops.
3) In-kernel reference count for multicast addresses isn't printed. I doubt
that anyone used it. Anyway, netstat(1) is sysadmin tool, not kernel
debugger.

KAME-specific sin6_scope_id handling routine from each userland utility:

This behavior can be controlled by net.inet6.ip6.deembed_scopeid. This is
set to 1 by default (sin6_scope_id will be filled in the kernel).

X-MFC: not possible
1. separating L2 tables (ARP, NDP) from the L3 routing tables
2. removing as much locking dependencies among these layers as
possible to allow for some parallelism in the search operations
3. simplify the logic in the routing code,
The most notable end result is the obsolescent of the route
cloning (RTF_CLONING) concept, which translated into code reduction
in both IPv4 ARP and IPv6 NDP related modules, and size reduction in
struct rtentry{}. The change in design obsoletes the semantics of
RTF_CLONING, RTF_WASCLONE and RTF_LLINFO routing flags. The userland
applications such as "arp" and "ndp" have been modified to reflect
those changes. The output from "netstat -r" shows only the routing
entries.
Quite a few developers have contributed to this project in the
past: Glebius Smirnoff, Luigi Rizzo, Alessandro Cerri, and
Andre Oppermann. And most recently:
- Kip Macy revised the locking code completely, thus completing
the last piece of the puzzle, Kip has also been conducting
active functional testing
- Sam Leffler has helped me improving/refactoring the code, and
provided valuable reviews
- Julian Elischer setup the perforce tree for me and has helped
me maintaining that branch before the svn conversion
