0fef97fea3 introduce concept of ifi_baudrate power factor. the idea is to work
around the problem where high speed interfaces (such as ixgbe(4))
are not able to report real ifi_baudrate. bascially, take a spare
byte from struct if_data and use it to store ifi_baudrate power
factor. in other words,

real ifi_baudrate = ifi_baudrate * 10 ^ ifi_baudrate power factor

this should be backwards compatible with old binaries. use ixgbe(4)
as an example on how drivers would set ifi_baudrate power factor

063efed28c The drbr(9) API appeared to be so unclear, that most drivers in
tree used it incorrectly, which lead to inaccurate overrated
if_obytes accounting. The drbr(9) used to update ifnet stats on
drbr_enqueue(), which is not accurate since enqueuing doesn't
imply successful processing by driver. Dequeuing neither mean
that. Most drivers also called drbr_stats_update() which did
accounting again, leading to doubled if_obytes statistics. And
in case of severe transmitting, when a packet could be several
times enqueued and dequeued it could have been accounted several
times.

o Thus, make drbr(9) API thinner. Now drbr(9) merely chooses between
  ALTQ queueing or buf_ring(9) queueing.
  - It doesn't touch the buf_ring stats any more.
  - It doesn't touch ifnet stats anymore.
  - drbr_stats_update() no longer exists.

o buf_ring(9) handles its stats itself:
  - It handles br_drops itself.
  - br_prod_bytes stats are dropped. Rationale: no one ever
    reads them but update of a common counter on every packet
    negatively affects performance due to excessive cache
    invalidation.
  - buf_ring_enqueue_bytes() reduced to buf_ring_enqueue(), since
    we no longer account bytes.

o Drivers handle their stats theirselves: if_obytes, if_omcasts.

o mlx4(4), igb(4), em(4), vxge(4), oce(4) and  ixv(4) no longer
  use drbr_stats_update(), and update ifnet stats theirselves.

o bxe(4) was the most correct driver, it didn't call
  drbr_stats_update(), thus it was the only driver accurate under
  moderate load. Now it also maintains stats itself.

o ixgbe(4) had already taken stats from hardware, so just
  - drop software stats updating.
  - take multicast packet count from hardware as well.

o mxge(4) just no longer needs NO_SLOW_STATS define.

o cxgb(4), cxgbe(4) need no change, since they obtain stats
  from hardware.

09fe63205c - Updated TOE support in the kernel.
- Stateful TCP offload drivers for Terminator 3 and 4 (T3 and T4) ASICs.
  These are available as t3_tom and t4_tom modules that augment cxgb(4)
  and cxgbe(4) respectively.  The cxgb/cxgbe drivers continue to work as
  usual with or without these extra features.

- iWARP driver for Terminator 3 ASIC (kernel verbs).  T4 iWARP in the
  works and will follow soon.

Build-tested with make universe.

30s overview
============
What interfaces support TCP offload?  Look for TOE4 and/or TOE6 in the
capabilities of an interface:
# ifconfig -m | grep TOE

Enable/disable TCP offload on an interface (just like any other ifnet
capability):
# ifconfig cxgbe0 toe
# ifconfig cxgbe0 -toe

Which connections are offloaded?  Look for toe4 and/or toe6 in the
output of netstat and sockstat:
# netstat -np tcp | grep toe
# sockstat -46c | grep toe

08b68b0e4c A major overhaul of the CARP implementation. The ip_carp.c was started
from scratch, copying needed functionality from the old implemenation
on demand, with a thorough review of all code. The main change is that
interface layer has been removed from the CARP. Now redundant addresses
are configured exactly on the interfaces, they run on.

The CARP configuration itself is, as before, configured and read via
SIOCSVH/SIOCGVH ioctls. A new prefix created with SIOCAIFADDR or
SIOCAIFADDR_IN6 may now be configured to a particular virtual host id,
which makes the prefix redundant.

ifconfig(8) semantics has been changed too: now one doesn't need
to clone carpXX interface, he/she should directly configure a vhid
on a Ethernet interface.

To supply vhid data from the kernel to an application the getifaddrs(8)
function had been changed to pass ifam_data with each address. [1]

The new implementation definitely closes all PRs related to carp(4)
being an interface, and may close several others. It also allows
to run a single redundant IP per interface.

Big thanks to Bjoern Zeeb for his help with inet6 part of patch, for
idea on using ifam_data and for several rounds of reviewing!

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.

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.

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.

1abcdbd127 When user_frac in the polling subsystem is low it is going to busy the
CPU for too long period than necessary.  Additively, interfaces are kept
polled (in the tick) even if no more packets are available.
In order to avoid such situations a new generic mechanism can be
implemented in proactive way, keeping track of the time spent on any
packet and fragmenting the time for any tick, stopping the processing
as soon as possible.

In order to implement such mechanism, the polling handler needs to
change, returning the number of packets processed.
While the intended logic is not part of this patch, the polling KPI is
broken by this commit, adding an int return value and the new flag
IFCAP_POLLING_NOCOUNT (which will signal that the return value is
meaningless for the installed handler and checking should be skipped).

e0c14af9b3 Introduce the if_vmove() function, which will be used in the future
for reassigning ifnets from one vnet to another.

if_vmove() works by calling a restricted subset of actions normally
executed by if_detach() on an ifnet in the current vnet, and then
switches to the target vnet and executes an appropriate subset of
if_attach() actions there.

if_attach() and if_detach() have become wrapper functions around
if_attach_internal() and if_detach_internal(), where the later
variants have an additional argument, a flag indicating whether a
full attach or detach sequence is to be executed, or only a
restricted subset suitable for moving an ifnet from one vnet to
another.  Hence, if_vmove() will not call if_detach() and if_attach()
directly, but will call the if_detach_internal() and
if_attach_internal() variants instead, with the vmove flag set.

While here, staticize ifnet_setbyindex() since it is not referenced
from outside of sys/net/if.c.

Also rename ifccnt field in struct vimage to ifcnt, and do some minor
whitespace garbage collection where appropriate.

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.

f6dfe47a14 Permit buiding kernels with options VIMAGE, restricted to only a single
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.

27d37320ec Start to address a number of races relating to use of ifnet pointers
after the corresponding interface has been destroyed:

(1) Add an ifnet refcount, ifp->if_refcount.  Initialize it to 1 in
    if_alloc(), and modify if_free_type() to decrement and check the
    refcount.

(2) Add new if_ref() and if_rele() interfaces to allow kernel code
    walking global interface lists to release IFNET_[RW]LOCK() yet
    keep the ifnet stable.  Currently, if_rele() is a no-op wrapper
    around if_free(), but this may change in the future.

(3) Add new ifnet field, if_alloctype, which caches the type passed
    to if_alloc(), but unlike if_type, won't be changed by drivers.
    This allows asynchronous free's of the interface after the
    driver has released it to still use the right type.  Use that
    instead of the type passed to if_free_type(), but assert that
    they are the same (might have to rethink this if that doesn't
    work out).

(4) Add a new ifnet_byindex_ref(), which looks up an interface by
    index and returns a reference rather than a pointer to it.

(5) Fix if_alloc() to fully initialize the if_addr_mtx before hooking
    up the ifnet to global lists.

(6) Modify sysctls in if_mib.c to use ifnet_byindex_ref() and release
    the ifnet when done.

When this change is MFC'd, it will need to replace if_ispare fields
rather than adding new fields in order to avoid breaking the binary
interface.  Once this change is MFC'd, if_free_type() should be
removed, as its 'type' argument is now optional.

This refcount is not appropriate for counting mbuf pkthdr references,
and also not for counting entry into the device driver via ifnet
function pointers.  An rmlock may be appropriate for the latter.
Rather, this is about ensuring data structure stability when reaching
an ifnet via global ifnet lists and tables followed by copy in or out
of userspace.

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.

unsynchronized.  While races were extremely rare, we've now had a
couple of reports of panics in environments involving large numbers of
IPSEC tunnels being added very quickly on an active system.

- Add accessor functions ifnet_byindex(), ifaddr_byindex(),
  ifdev_byindex() to replace existing accessor macros.  These functions
  now acquire the ifnet lock before derefencing the table.
- Add IFNET_WLOCK_ASSERT().
- Add static accessor functions ifnet_setbyindex(), ifdev_setbyindex(),
  which set values in the table either asserting of acquiring the ifnet
  lock.
- Use accessor functions throughout if.c to modify and read
  ifindex_table.
- Rework ifnet attach/detach to lock around ifindex_table modification.

Note that these changes simply close races around use of ifindex_table,
and make no attempt to solve the probem of disappearing ifnets.  Further
refinement of this work, including with respect to ifindex_table
resizing, is still required.

In a future change, the ifnet lock should be converted from a mutex to an
rwlock in order to reduce contention.

8b07e49a00 Add code to allow the system to handle multiple routing tables.
This particular implementation is designed to be fully backwards compatible
and to be MFC-able to 7.x (and 6.x)

Currently the only protocol that can make use of the multiple tables is IPv4
Similar functionality exists in OpenBSD and Linux.

From my notes:

-----

  One thing where FreeBSD has been falling behind, and which by chance I
  have some time to work on is "policy based routing", which allows
  different
  packet streams to be routed by more than just the destination address.

  Constraints:
  ------------

  I want to make some form of this available in the 6.x tree
  (and by extension 7.x) , but FreeBSD in general needs it so I might as
  well do it in -current and back port the portions I need.

  One of the ways that this can be done is to have the ability to
  instantiate multiple kernel routing tables (which I will now
  refer to as "Forwarding Information Bases" or "FIBs" for political
  correctness reasons). Which FIB a particular packet uses to make
  the next hop decision can be decided by a number of mechanisms.
  The policies these mechanisms implement are the "Policies" referred
  to in "Policy based routing".

  One of the constraints I have if I try to back port this work to
  6.x is that it must be implemented as a EXTENSION to the existing
  ABIs in 6.x so that third party applications do not need to be
  recompiled in timespan of the branch.

  This first version will not have some of the bells and whistles that
  will come with later versions. It will, for example, be limited to 16
  tables in the first commit.
  Implementation method, Compatible version. (part 1)
  -------------------------------
  For this reason I have implemented a "sufficient subset" of a
  multiple routing table solution in Perforce, and back-ported it
  to 6.x. (also in Perforce though not  always caught up with what I
  have done in -current/P4). The subset allows a number of FIBs
  to be defined at compile time (8 is sufficient for my purposes in 6.x)
  and implements the changes needed to allow IPV4 to use them. I have not
  done the changes for ipv6 simply because I do not need it, and I do not
  have enough knowledge of ipv6 (e.g. neighbor discovery) needed to do it.

  Other protocol families are left untouched and should there be
  users with proprietary protocol families, they should continue to work
  and be oblivious to the existence of the extra FIBs.

  To understand how this is done, one must know that the current FIB
  code starts everything off with a single dimensional array of
  pointers to FIB head structures (One per protocol family), each of
  which in turn points to the trie of routes available to that family.

  The basic change in the ABI compatible version of the change is to
  extent that array to be a 2 dimensional array, so that
  instead of protocol family X looking at rt_tables[X] for the
  table it needs, it looks at rt_tables[Y][X] when for all
  protocol families except ipv4 Y is always 0.
  Code that is unaware of the change always just sees the first row
  of the table, which of course looks just like the one dimensional
  array that existed before.

  The entry points rtrequest(), rtalloc(), rtalloc1(), rtalloc_ign()
  are all maintained, but refer only to the first row of the array,
  so that existing callers in proprietary protocols can continue to
  do the "right thing".
  Some new entry points are added, for the exclusive use of ipv4 code
  called in_rtrequest(), in_rtalloc(), in_rtalloc1() and in_rtalloc_ign(),
  which have an extra argument which refers the code to the correct row.

  In addition, there are some new entry points (currently called
  rtalloc_fib() and friends) that check the Address family being
  looked up and call either rtalloc() (and friends) if the protocol
  is not IPv4 forcing the action to row 0 or to the appropriate row
  if it IS IPv4 (and that info is available). These are for calling
  from code that is not specific to any particular protocol. The way
  these are implemented would change in the non ABI preserving code
  to be added later.

  One feature of the first version of the code is that for ipv4,
  the interface routes show up automatically on all the FIBs, so
  that no matter what FIB you select you always have the basic
  direct attached hosts available to you. (rtinit() does this
  automatically).

  You CAN delete an interface route from one FIB should you want
  to but by default it's there. ARP information is also available
  in each FIB. It's assumed that the same machine would have the
  same MAC address, regardless of which FIB you are using to get
  to it.

  This brings us as to how the correct FIB is selected for an outgoing
  IPV4 packet.

  Firstly, all packets have a FIB associated with them. if nothing
  has been done to change it, it will be FIB 0. The FIB is changed
  in the following ways.

  Packets fall into one of a number of classes.

  1/ locally generated packets, coming from a socket/PCB.
     Such packets select a FIB from a number associated with the
     socket/PCB. This in turn is inherited from the process,
     but can be changed by a socket option. The process in turn
     inherits it on fork. I have written a utility call setfib
     that acts a bit like nice..

         setfib -3 ping target.example.com # will use fib 3 for ping.

     It is an obvious extension to make it a property of a jail
     but I have not done so. It can be achieved by combining the setfib and
     jail commands.

  2/ packets received on an interface for forwarding.
     By default these packets would use table 0,
     (or possibly a number settable in a sysctl(not yet)).
     but prior to routing the firewall can inspect them (see below).
     (possibly in the future you may be able to associate a FIB
     with packets received on an interface..  An ifconfig arg, but not yet.)

  3/ packets inspected by a packet classifier, which can arbitrarily
     associate a fib with it on a packet by packet basis.
     A fib assigned to a packet by a packet classifier
     (such as ipfw) would over-ride a fib associated by
     a more default source. (such as cases 1 or 2).

  4/ a tcp listen socket associated with a fib will generate
     accept sockets that are associated with that same fib.

  5/ Packets generated in response to some other packet (e.g. reset
     or icmp packets). These should use the FIB associated with the
     packet being reponded to.

  6/ Packets generated during encapsulation.
     gif, tun and other tunnel interfaces will encapsulate using the FIB
     that was in effect withthe proces that set up the tunnel.
     thus setfib 1 ifconfig gif0 [tunnel instructions]
     will set the fib for the tunnel to use to be fib 1.

  Routing messages would be associated with their
  process, and thus select one FIB or another.
  messages from the kernel would be associated with the fib they
  refer to and would only be received by a routing socket associated
  with that fib. (not yet implemented)

  In addition Netstat has been edited to be able to cope with the
  fact that the array is now 2 dimensional. (It looks in system
  memory using libkvm (!)). Old versions of netstat see only the first FIB.

  In addition two sysctls are added to give:
  a) the number of FIBs compiled in (active)
  b) the default FIB of the calling process.

  Early testing experience:
  -------------------------

  Basically our (IronPort's) appliance does this functionality already
  using ipfw fwd but that method has some drawbacks.

  For example,
  It can't fully simulate a routing table because it can't influence the
  socket's choice of local address when a connect() is done.

  Testing during the generating of these changes has been
  remarkably smooth so far. Multiple tables have co-existed
  with no notable side effects, and packets have been routes
  accordingly.

  ipfw has grown 2 new keywords:

  setfib N ip from anay to any
  count ip from any to any fib N

  In pf there seems to be a requirement to be able to give symbolic names to the
  fibs but I do not have that capacity. I am not sure if it is required.

  SCTP has interestingly enough built in support for this, called VRFs
  in Cisco parlance. it will be interesting to see how that handles it
  when it suddenly actually does something.

  Where to next:
  --------------------

  After committing the ABI compatible version and MFCing it, I'd
  like to proceed in a forward direction in -current. this will
  result in some roto-tilling in the routing code.

  Firstly: the current code's idea of having a separate tree per
  protocol family, all of the same format, and pointed to by the
  1 dimensional array is a bit silly. Especially when one considers that
  there is code that makes assumptions about every protocol having the
  same internal structures there. Some protocols don't WANT that
  sort of structure. (for example the whole idea of a netmask is foreign
  to appletalk). This needs to be made opaque to the external code.

  My suggested first change is to add routing method pointers to the
  'domain' structure, along with information pointing the data.
  instead of having an array of pointers to uniform structures,
  there would be an array pointing to the 'domain' structures
  for each protocol address domain (protocol family),
  and the methods this reached would be called. The methods would have
  an argument that gives FIB number, but the protocol would be free
  to ignore it.

  When the ABI can be changed it raises the possibilty of the
  addition of a fib entry into the "struct route". Currently,
  the structure contains the sockaddr of the desination, and the resulting
  fib entry. To make this work fully, one could add a fib number
  so that given an address and a fib, one can find the third element, the
  fib entry.

  Interaction with the ARP layer/ LL layer would need to be
  revisited as well. Qing Li has been working on this already.

ec002fee99 Implement reference counting for ifmultiaddr, in_multi, and in6_multi
structures. Detect when ifnet instances are detached from the network
stack and perform appropriate cleanup to prevent memory leaks.

This has been implemented in such a way as to be backwards ABI compatible.
Kernel consumers are changed to use if_delmulti_ifma(); in_delmulti()
is unable to detect interface removal by design, as it performs searches
on structures which are removed with the interface.

With this architectural change, the panics FreeBSD users have experienced
with carp and pfsync should be resolved.

75ee267c22 Merge the //depot/user/yar/vlan branch into CVS. It contains some collective
work by yar, thompsa and myself. The checksum offloading part also involves
work done by Mihail Balikov.

The most important changes:

o   Instead of global linked list of all vlan softc use a per-trunk
  hash. The size of hash is dynamically adjusted, depending on
  number of entries. This changes struct ifnet, replacing counter
  of vlans with a pointer to trunk structure. This change is an
  improvement for setups with big number of VLANs, several interfaces
  and several CPUs. It is a small regression for a setup with a single
  VLAN interface.
    An alternative to dynamic hash is a per-trunk static array with
  4096 entries, which is a compile time option - VLAN_ARRAY. In my
  experiments the array is not an improvement, probably because such
  a big trunk structure doesn't fit into CPU cache.
o   Introduce an UMA zone for VLAN tags. Since drivers depend on it,
  the zone is declared in kern_mbuf.c, not in optional vlan(4) driver.
  This change is a big improvement for any setup utilizing vlan(4).
o   Use rwlock(9) instead of mutex(9) for locking. We are the first
  ones to do this! :)
o   Some drivers can do hardware VLAN tagging + hardware checksum
  offloading. Add an infrastructure for this. Whenever vlan(4) is
  attached to a parent or parent configuration is changed, the flags
  on vlan(4) interface are updated.

4092996774 Big polling(4) cleanup.
o Axe poll in trap.

o Axe IFF_POLLING flag from if_flags.

o Rework revision 1.21 (Giant removal), in such a way that
  poll_mtx is not dropped during call to polling handler.
  This fixes problem with idle polling.

o Make registration and deregistration from polling in a
  functional way, insted of next tick/interrupt.

o Obsolete kern.polling.enable. Polling is turned on/off
  with ifconfig.

Detailed kern_poll.c changes:
  - Remove polling handler flags, introduced in 1.21. The are not
    needed now.
  - Forget and do not check if_flags, if_capenable and if_drv_flags.
  - Call all registered polling handlers unconditionally.
  - Do not drop poll_mtx, when entering polling handlers.
  - In ether_poll() NET_LOCK_GIANT prior to locking poll_mtx.
  - In netisr_poll() axe the block, where polling code asks drivers
    to unregister.
  - In netisr_poll() and ether_poll() do polling always, if any
    handlers are present.
  - In ether_poll_[de]register() remove a lot of error hiding code. Assert
    that arguments are correct, instead.
  - In ether_poll_[de]register() use standard return values in case of
    error or success.
  - Introduce poll_switch() that is a sysctl handler for kern.polling.enable.
    poll_switch() goes through interface list and enabled/disables polling.
    A message that kern.polling.enable is deprecated is printed.

Detailed driver changes:
  - On attach driver announces IFCAP_POLLING in if_capabilities, but
    not in if_capenable.
  - On detach driver calls ether_poll_deregister() if polling is enabled.
  - In polling handler driver obtains its lock and checks IFF_DRV_RUNNING
    flag. If there is no, then unlocks and returns.
  - In ioctl handler driver checks for IFCAP_POLLING flag requested to
    be set or cleared. Driver first calls ether_poll_[de]register(), then
    obtains driver lock and [dis/en]ables interrupts.
  - In interrupt handler driver checks IFCAP_POLLING flag in if_capenable.
    If present, then returns.This is important to protect from spurious
    interrupts.

292ee7be1c Rename IFF_RUNNING to IFF_DRV_RUNNING, IFF_OACTIVE to IFF_DRV_OACTIVE,
and move both flags from ifnet.if_flags to ifnet.if_drv_flags, making
and documenting the locking of these flags the responsibility of the
device driver, not the network stack.  The flags for these two fields
will be mutually exclusive so that they can be exposed to user space as
though they were stored in the same variable.

Provide #defines to provide the old names #ifndef _KERNEL, so that user
applications (such as ifconfig) can use the old flag names.  Using the
old names in a device driver will result in a compile error in order to
help device driver writers adopt the new model.

When exposing the interface flags to user space, via interface ioctls
or routing sockets, or the two fields together.  Since the driver flags
cannot currently be set for user space, no new logic is currently
required to handle this case.

Add some assertions that general purpose network stack routines, such
as if_setflags(), are not improperly used on driver-owned flags.

With this change, a large number of very minor network stack races are
closed, subject to correct device driver locking.  Most were likely
never triggered.

fc74a9f93a Stop embedding struct ifnet at the top of driver softcs. Instead the
struct ifnet or the layer 2 common structure it was embedded in have
been replaced with a struct ifnet pointer to be filled by a call to the
new function, if_alloc(). The layer 2 common structure is also allocated
via if_alloc() based on the interface type. It is hung off the new
struct ifnet member, if_l2com.

This change removes the size of these structures from the kernel ABI and
will allow us to better manage them as interfaces come and go.

Other changes of note:
 - Struct arpcom is no longer referenced in normal interface code.
   Instead the Ethernet address is accessed via the IFP2ENADDR() macro.
   To enforce this ac_enaddr has been renamed to _ac_enaddr.
 - The second argument to ether_ifattach is now always the mac address
   from driver private storage rather than sometimes being ac_enaddr.

af5e59bf28 Add a new network interface flag, IFF_NEEDSGIANT, which will allow
device drivers to declare that the ifp->if_start() method implemented
by the driver requires Giant in order to operate correctly.

Add a 'struct task' to 'struct ifnet' that can be used to execute a
deferred ifp->if_start() in the event that if_start needs to be called
in a Giant-free environment.  To do this, introduce if_start(), a
wrapper function for ifp->if_start().  If the interface can run MPSAFE,
it directly dispatches into the interface start routine.  If it can't
run MPSAFE, we're running with debug.mpsafenet != 0, and Giant isn't
currently held, the task is queued to execute in a swi holding Giant
via if_start_deferred().

Modify if_handoff() to use if_start() instead of direct dispatch.
Modify 802.11 to use if_start() instead of direct dispatch.

This is intended to provide increased compatibility for non-MPSAFE
network device drivers in the presence of Giant-free operation via
asynchronous dispatch.  However, this commit does not mark any network
interfaces as IFF_NEEDSGIANT.

f889d2ef8d Major overhaul of pseudo-interface cloning. Highlights include:
- Split the code out into if_clone.[ch].
 - Locked struct if_clone. [1]
 - Add a per-cloner match function rather then simply matching names of
   the form <name><unit> and <name>.
 - Use the match function to allow creation of <interface>.<tag>
   vlan interfaces.  The old way is preserved unchanged!
 - Also the match function to allow creation of stf(4) interfaces named
   stf0, stf, or 6to4.  This is the only major user visible change in
   that "ifconfig stf" creates the interface stf rather then stf0 and
   does not print "stf0" to stdout.
 - Allow destroy functions to fail so they can refuse to delete
   interfaces.  Currently, we forbid the deletion of interfaces which
   were created in the init function, particularly lo0, pflog0, and
   pfsync0.  In the case of lo0 this was a panic implementation so it
   does not count as a user visiable change. :-)
 - Since most interfaces do not need the new functionality, an family of
   wrapper functions, ifc_simple_*(), were created to wrap old style
   cloner functions.
 - The IF_CLONE_INITIALIZER macro is replaced with a new incompatible
   IFC_CLONE_INITIALIZER and ifc_simple consumers use IFC_SIMPLE_DECLARE
   instead.

212b6d5244 + rename and document an unused field in struct arpcom (field is still
there so there are no ABI changes);
+ replace 5 redefinitions of the IPF2AC macro with one in if_arp.h

Eventually (but before freezing the ABI) we need to get rid of
struct arpcom (initially with the help of some smart #defines
to avoid having to touch each and every driver, see below).

Apart from the struct ifnet, struct arpcom now only stores a copy
of the MAC address (ac_enaddr, but we already have another copy in
the struct ifnet -- if_addrhead), and a netgraph-specific field
which is _always_ accessed through the ifp, so it might well go
into the struct ifnet too (where, besides, there is already an entry
for AF_NETGRAPH data...)

Too bad ac_enaddr is widely referenced by all drivers. But
this can be fixed as follows:

#define ac_enaddr       ac_if.the_original_ac_enaddr_in_struct_ifnet

(note that the right hand side would likely be a pointer rather than
the base address of an array.)

in various kernel objects to represent security data, we embed a
(struct label *) pointer, which now references labels allocated using
a UMA zone (mac_label.c).  This allows the size and shape of struct
label to be varied without changing the size and shape of these kernel
objects, which become part of the frozen ABI with 5-STABLE.  This opens
the door for boot-time selection of the number of label slots, and hence
changes to the bound on the number of simultaneous labeled policies
at boot-time instead of compile-time.  This also makes it easier to
embed label references in new objects as required for locking/caching
with fine-grained network stack locking, such as inpcb structures.

This change also moves us further in the direction of hiding the
structure of kernel objects from MAC policy modules, not to mention
dramatically reducing the number of '&' symbols appearing in both the
MAC Framework and MAC policy modules, and improving readability.

While this results in minimal performance change with MAC enabled, it
will observably shrink the size of a number of critical kernel data
structures for the !MAC case, and should have a small (but measurable)
performance benefit (i.e., struct vnode, struct socket) do to memory
conservation and reduced cost of zeroing memory.

NOTE: Users of MAC must recompile their kernel and all MAC modules as a
result of this change.  Because this is an API change, third party
MAC modules will also need to be updated to make less use of the '&'
symbol.

9bf40ede4a Replace the if_name and if_unit members of struct ifnet with new members
if_xname, if_dname, and if_dunit. if_xname is the name of the interface
and if_dname/unit are the driver name and instance.

This change paves the way for interface renaming and enhanced pseudo
device creation and configuration symantics.

fa882e87a5 Add a new helper function if_printf() modeled on device_printf(). The
function takes a struct ifnet pointer followed by the usual printf
arguments and prints "<interfacename>: " before the results of printf.
Since this is the primary form of printf calls in network device drivers
and accounts for most uses of the ifnet menber if_unit, this
significantly simplifies many printf()s.

e4fc250c15 Device Polling code for -current.
Non-SMP, i386-only, no polling in the idle loop at the moment.

To use this code you must compile a kernel with

        options DEVICE_POLLING

and at runtime enable polling with

        sysctl kern.polling.enable=1

The percentage of CPU reserved to userland can be set with

        sysctl kern.polling.user_frac=NN (default is 50)

while the remainder is used by polling device drivers and netisr's.
These are the only two variables that you should need to touch. There
are a few more parameters in kern.polling but the default values
are adequate for all purposes. See the code in kern_poll.c for
more details on them.

Polling in the idle loop will be implemented shortly by introducing
a kernel thread which does the job. Until then, the amount of CPU
dedicated to polling will never exceed (100-user_frac).
The equivalent (actually, better) code for -stable is at

	http://info.iet.unipi.it/~luigi/polling/

and also supports polling in the idle loop.

NOTE to Alpha developers:
There is really nothing in this code that is i386-specific.
If you move the 2 lines supporting the new option from
sys/conf/{files,options}.i386 to sys/conf/{files,options} I am
pretty sure that this should work on the Alpha as well, just that
I do not have a suitable test box to try it. If someone feels like
trying it, I would appreciate it.

NOTE to other developers:
sure some things could be done better, and as always I am open to
constructive criticism, which a few of you have already given and
I greatly appreciated.
However, before proposing radical architectural changes, please
take some time to possibly try out this code, or at the very least
read the comments in kern_poll.c, especially re. the reason why I
am using a soft netisr and cannot (I believe) replace it with a
simple timeout.

8071913df2 Pull post-4.4BSD change to sys/net/route.c from BSD/OS 4.2.
Have sys/net/route.c:rtrequest1(), which takes ``rt_addrinfo *''
as the argument.  Pass rt_addrinfo all the way down to rtrequest1
and ifa->ifa_rtrequest.  3rd argument of ifa->ifa_rtrequest is now
``rt_addrinfo *'' instead of ``sockaddr *'' (almost noone is
using it anyways).

Benefit: the following command now works.  Previously we needed
two route(8) invocations, "add" then "change".
# route add -inet6 default ::1 -ifp gif0

Remove unsafe typecast in rtrequest(), from ``rtentry *'' to
``sockaddr *''.  It was introduced by 4.3BSD-Reno and never
corrected.
