3034f43f2f Fix long-standing issue with interface routes being unprotected:
Use RTM_PINNED flag to mark route as immutable.
Forbid deleting immutable routes without special rtrequest1_fib() flag.
Adding interface address with prefix already in route table is handled
by atomically deleting old prefix and adding interface one.

bfca216eb9 Hide kernel option ROUTETABLES evaluations in the implementation
rather than the header file.  With this also move RT_MAXFIBS and
RT_NUMFIBS into the implemantion to avoid further usage in other
code. rt_numfibs is all that should be needed.

This allows users to change the number of FIBs from 1..RT_MAXFIBS(16)
dynamically using the tunable without the need to change the kernel
config for the maximum anymore.  This means that thet multi-FIB
feature is now fully available with GENERIC kernels.
The kernel option ROUTETABLES can still be used to set the default
numbers of FIBs in absence of the tunable.

46a70de2b0 The host-id/interface-id can have a specific value and is properly
masked out when adding a prefix route through the "route" command.
However, when deleting the route, simply changing the command keyword
from "add" to "delete" does not work. The failoure is observed in
both IPv4 and IPv6 route insertion. The patch makes the route command

If both NIC has a loopback route to itself, so IFA_RTSELF is set on ifa(s).
As IFA_RTSELF is defined by RTF_HOST, rtrequest1_fib() is called with
RTF_HOST flag even if netmask is not NULL. Consequently, netmask is set
to zero in rtrequest1_fib(), and request to add network route is changed

c7ea0aa648 One of the advantages of enabling ECMP (a.k.a RADIX_MPATH) is to
allow for connection load balancing across interfaces. Currently
the address alias handling method is colliding with the ECMP code.
For example, when two interfaces are configured on the same prefix,
only one prefix route is installed. So connection load balancing
among the available interfaces is not possible.

The other advantage of ECMP is for failover. The issue with the
current code, is that the interface link-state is not reflected
in the route entry. For example, if there are two interfaces on
the same prefix, the cable on one interface is unplugged, new and
existing connections should switch over to the other interface.
This is not done today and packets go into a black hole.

Also, there is a small bug in the kernel where deleting ECMP routes
in the userland will always return an error even though the command
is successfully executed.

c7ab66020f The proxy arp entries could not be added into the system over the
IFF_POINTOPOINT link types. The reason was due to the routing
entry returned from the kernel covering the remote end is of an
interface type that does not support ARP. This patch fixes this
problem by providing a hint to the kernel routing code, which
indicates the prefix route instead of the PPP host route should
be returned to the caller. Since a host route to the local end
point is also added into the routing table, and there could be
multiple such instantiations due to multiple PPP links can be
created with the same local end IP address, this patch also fixes
the loopback route installation failure problem observed prior to
this patch. The reference count of loopback route to local end would
be either incremented or decremented. The first instantiation would
create the entry and the last removal would delete the route entry.

e5c610d659 The flow-table associates TCP/UDP flows and IP destinations with
specific routes. When the routing table changes, for example,
when a new route with a more specific prefix is inserted into the
routing table, the flow-table is not updated to reflect that change.
As such existing connections cannot take advantage of the new path.
In some cases the path is broken. This patch will update the affected
flow-table entries when a more specific route is added. The route
entry is properly marked when a route is deleted from the table.
In this case, when the flow-table performs a search, the stale
entry is updated automatically. Therefore this patch is not
necessary for route deletion.

d0728d7174 Introduce and use a sysinit-based initialization scheme for virtual
network stacks, VNET_SYSINIT:

- Add VNET_SYSINIT and VNET_SYSUNINIT macros to declare events that will
  occur each time a network stack is instantiated and destroyed.  In the
  !VIMAGE case, these are simply mapped into regular SYSINIT/SYSUNINIT.
  For the VIMAGE case, we instead use SYSINIT's to track their order and
  properties on registration, using them for each vnet when created/
  destroyed, or immediately on module load for already-started vnets.
- Remove vnet_modinfo mechanism that existed to serve this purpose
  previously, as well as its dependency scheme: we now just use the
  SYSINIT ordering scheme.
- Implement VNET_DOMAIN_SET() to allow protocol domains to declare that
  they want init functions to be called for each virtual network stack
  rather than just once at boot, compiling down to DOMAIN_SET() in the
  non-VIMAGE case.
- Walk all virtualized kernel subsystems and make use of these instead
  of modinfo or DOMAIN_SET() for init/uninit events.  In some cases,
  convert modular components from using modevent to using sysinit (where
  appropriate).  In some cases, do minor rejuggling of SYSINIT ordering
  to make room for or better manage events.

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.

required to safely acquire references.

Because of a lack of deep copying support, we accept a race in which
an in6_ifaddr pointed to by mbuf tags and extracted with
ip6_getdstifaddr() doesn't hold a reference while in transmit.  Once
we have mbuf tag deep copy support, this can be fixed.

bc29160df3 Introduce an infrastructure for dismantling vnet instances.
Vnet modules and protocol domains may now register destructor
functions to clean up and release per-module state.  The destructor
mechanisms can be triggered by invoking "vimage -d", or a future
equivalent command which will be provided via the new jail framework.

While this patch introduces numerous placeholder destructor functions,
many of those are currently incomplete, thus leaking memory or (even
worse) failing to stop all running timers.  Many of such issues are
already known and will be incrementaly fixed over the next weeks in
smaller incremental commits.

Apart from introducing new fields in structs ifnet, domain, protosw
and vnet_net, which requires the kernel and modules to be rebuilt, this
change should have no impact on nooptions VIMAGE builds, since vnet
destructors can only be called in VIMAGE kernels.  Moreover,
destructor functions should be in general compiled in only in
options VIMAGE builds, except for kernel modules which can be safely
kldunloaded at run time.

bfe1aba468 Introduce vnet module registration / initialization framework with
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.

1ed81b739e First pass at separating per-vnet initializer functions
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.

	Bump __FreeBSD_version due to changes in layout of structs
	vnet_ipfw, vnet_inet and vnet_net.

6e6b3f7cbc This main goals of this project are:
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
