Move the type and function pointers for operations on existing send
tags (modify, query, next, free) out of 'struct ifnet' and into a new
'struct if_snd_tag_sw'. A pointer to this structure is added to the
generic part of send tags and is initialized by m_snd_tag_init()
(which now accepts a switch structure as a new argument in place of
the type).
Previously, device driver ifnet methods switched on the type to call
type-specific functions. Now, those type-specific functions are saved
in the switch structure and invoked directly. In addition, this more
gracefully permits multiple implementations of the same tag within a
driver. In particular, NIC TLS for future Chelsio adapters will use a
different implementation than the existing NIC TLS support for T6
adapters.

SOCK_IO_SEND_(UN)LOCK() and SOCK_IO_RECV_(UN)LOCK(). These operate on a
socket rather than a socket buffer. Note that these locks are used only
to prevent concurrent readers and writters from interleaving I/O.
When locking for I/O, return an error if the socket is a listening

destroyed during the transition to a listening socket, but that will no
longer be true after some follow-up changes.

KTLS OCF support was originally targeted at software backends that
used host CPU cycles to encrypt TLS records. As a result, each KTLS
worker thread queued a single TLS record at a time and waited for it
to be encrypted before processing another TLS record. This works well
for software backends but limits throughput on OCF drivers for
coprocessors that support asynchronous operation such as qat(4) or
ccr(4). This change uses an alternate function (ktls_encrypt_async)
when encrypt TLS records via a coprocessor. This function queues TLS
records for encryption and returns. It defers the work done after a
TLS record has been encrypted (such as marking the mbufs ready) to a
callback invoked asynchronously by the coprocessor driver when a
record has been encrypted.
- Add a struct ktls_ocf_state that holds the per-request state stored
on the stack for synchronous requests. Asynchronous requests malloc
this structure while synchronous requests continue to allocate this
structure on the stack.
- Add a ktls_encrypt_async() variant of ktls_encrypt() which does not
perform request completion after dispatching a request to OCF.
Instead, the ktls_ocf backends invoke ktls_encrypt_cb() when a TLS
record request completes for an asynchronous request.
- Flag AEAD software TLS sessions as async if the backend driver
selected by OCF is an async driver.
- Pull code to create and dispatch an OCF request out of
ktls_encrypt() into a new ktls_encrypt_one() function used by both
ktls_encrypt() and ktls_encrypt_async().

TLS 1.0 empty fragment mbufs have no payload and thus m_epg_npgs is
zero. However, these mbufs need to occupy a "unit" of space for the
purposes of M_NOTREADY tracking similar to regular mbufs. Previously
this was done for the page count returned from ktls_frame() and passed
to ktls_enqueue() as well as the page count passed to pru_ready().
However, sbready() and mb_free_notready() only use m_epg_nrdy to
determine the number of "units" of space in an M_EXT mbuf, so when a
TLS 1.0 fragment was marked ready it would mark one unit of the next
mbuf in the socket buffer as ready as well. To fix, set m_epg_nrdy to
1 for empty fragments. This actually simplifies the code as now only

Ktls recently received an optimization where we allocate 16k
physically contiguous crypto destination buffers. This provides a
large (more than 5%) reduction in CPU use in our
workload. However, after several days of uptime, the performance
benefit disappears because we have frequent allocation failures
from the ktls buffer zone.
It turns out that when load drops off, the ktls buffer zone is
trimmed, and some 16k buffers are freed back to the OS. When load
picks back up again, re-allocating those 16k buffers fails after
some number of days of uptime because physical memory has become
fragmented. This causes allocations to fail, because they are
intentionally done without M_NORECLAIM, so as to avoid pausing
the ktls crytpo work thread while the VM system defragments
memory.
To work around this, this change starts one thread per VM domain
to allocate ktls buffers with M_NORECLAIM, as we don't care if
this thread is paused while memory is defragged. The thread then
frees the buffers back into the ktls buffer zone, thus allowing
future allocations to succeed.
Note that waking up the thread is intentionally racy, but neither
of the races really matter. In the worst case, we could have
either spurious wakeups or we could have to wait 1 second until
the next rate-limited allocation failure to wake up the thread.
This patch has been in use at Netflix on a handful of servers,
and seems to fix the issue.

Ifnet (inline) hw kTLS NICs typically keep state within
a TLS record, so that when transmitting in-order,
they can continue encryption on each segment sent without
DMA'ing extra state from the host.
This breaks down when transmits are out of order (eg,
TCP retransmits). In this case, the NIC must re-DMA
the entire TLS record up to and including the segment
being retransmitted. This means that when re-transmitting
the last 1448 byte segment of a TLS record, the NIC will
have to re-DMA the entire 16KB TLS record. This can lead
to the NIC running out of PCIe bus bandwidth well before
it saturates the network link if a lot of TCP connections have
a high retransmoit rate.
This change introduces a new sysctl (kern.ipc.tls.ifnet_max_rexmit_pct),

In that case, sb_mark_notready() would incorrectly treat the decrypted

This always resulted in the connection being dropped as the data in
the control message did not look like a valid TLS header.
To fix, don't try to handle software decryption of existing buffers in

Maintain a cache of physically contiguous runs of pages for use as
output buffers when software encryption is configured and in-place
encryption is not possible. This makes allocation and free cheaper
since in the common case we avoid touching the vm_page structures for
the buffer, and fewer calls into UMA are needed. gallatin@ reports a
~10% absolute decrease in CPU usage with sendfile/KTLS on a Xeon after
this change.
It is possible that we will not be able to allocate these buffers if
physical memory is fragmented. To avoid frequently calling into the
physical memory allocator in this scenario, rate-limit allocation
attempts after a failure. In the failure case we fall back to the old
behaviour of allocating a page at a time.
N.B.: this scheme could be simplified, either by simply using malloc()
and looking up the PAs of the pages backing the buffer, or by falling
back to page by page allocation and creating a mapping in the cache
zone. This requires some way to save a mapping of an M_EXTPG page array
in the mbuf, though. m_data is not really appropriate. The second
approach may be possible by saving the mapping in the plinks union of
the first vm_page structure of the array, but this would force a vm_page

Allow TLS records to be decrypted in the kernel after being received
by a NIC. At a high level this is somewhat similar to software KTLS
for the transmit path except in reverse. Protocols enqueue mbufs
containing encrypted TLS records (or portions of records) into the
tail of a socket buffer and the KTLS layer decrypts those records
before returning them to userland applications. However, there is an
important difference:
- In the transmit case, the socket buffer is always a single "record"
holding a chain of mbufs. Not-yet-encrypted mbufs are marked not
ready (M_NOTREADY) and released to protocols for transmit by marking
mbufs ready once their data is encrypted.
- In the receive case, incoming (encrypted) data appended to the
socket buffer is still a single stream of data from the protocol,
but decrypted TLS records are stored as separate records in the
socket buffer and read individually via recvmsg().
Initially I tried to make this work by marking incoming mbufs as
M_NOTREADY, but there didn't seemed to be a non-gross way to deal with
picking a portion of the mbuf chain and turning it into a new record
in the socket buffer after decrypting the TLS record it contained
(along with prepending a control message). Also, such mbufs would
also need to be "pinned" in some way while they are being decrypted
such that a concurrent sbcut() wouldn't free them out from under the
thread performing decryption.
As such, I settled on the following solution:
- Socket buffers now contain an additional chain of mbufs (sb_mtls,
sb_mtlstail, and sb_tlscc) containing encrypted mbufs appended by
the protocol layer. These mbufs are still marked M_NOTREADY, but
soreceive*() generally don't know about them (except that they will
block waiting for data to be decrypted for a blocking read).
- Each time a new mbuf is appended to this TLS mbuf chain, the socket
buffer peeks at the TLS record header at the head of the chain to
determine the encrypted record's length. If enough data is queued
for the TLS record, the socket is placed on a per-CPU TLS workqueue
(reusing the existing KTLS workqueues and worker threads).
- The worker thread loops over the TLS mbuf chain decrypting records
until it runs out of data. Each record is detached from the TLS
mbuf chain while it is being decrypted to keep the mbufs "pinned".
However, a new sb_dtlscc field tracks the character count of the
detached record and sbcut()/sbdrop() is updated to account for the
detached record. After the record is decrypted, the worker thread
first checks to see if sbcut() dropped the record. If so, it is
freed (can happen when a socket is closed with pending data).
Otherwise, the header and trailer are stripped from the original
mbufs, a control message is created holding the decrypted TLS
header, and the decrypted TLS record is appended to the "normal"
socket buffer chain.
(Side note: the SBCHECK() infrastucture was very useful as I was
able to add assertions there about the TLS chain that caught several
bugs during development.)

This change is build on top of nexthop objects introduced in r359823.
Nexthops are separate datastructures, containing all necessary information
to perform packet forwarding such as gateway interface and mtu. Nexthops
are shared among the routes, providing more pre-computed cache-efficient
data while requiring less memory. Splitting the LPM code and the attached
data solves multiple long-standing problems in the routing layer,
drastically reduces the coupling with outher parts of the stack and allows
to transparently introduce faster lookup algorithms.
Route caching was (re)introduced to minimise (slow) routing lookups, allowing
for notably better performance for large TCP senders. Caching works by
acquiring rtentry reference, which is protected by per-rtentry mutex.
If the routing table is changed (checked by comparing the rtable generation id)
or link goes down, cache record gets withdrawn.
Nexthops have the same reference counting interface, backed by refcount(9).
This change merely replaces rtentry with the actual forwarding nextop as a
cached object, which is mostly mechanical. Other moving parts like cache
cleanup on rtable change remains the same.

While the original implementation of unmapped mbufs was a large
step forward in terms of reducing cache misses by enabling mbufs
to carry more than a single page for sendfile, they are rather
cache unfriendly when accessing the ext_pgs metadata and
data. This is because the ext_pgs part of the mbuf is allocated
separately, and almost guaranteed to be cold in cache.
This change takes advantage of the fact that unmapped mbufs
are never used at the same time as pkthdr mbufs. Given this
fact, we can overlap the ext_pgs metadata with the mbuf
pkthdr, and carry the ext_pgs meta directly in the mbuf itself.
Similarly, we can carry the ext_pgs data (TLS hdr/trailer/array
of pages) directly after the existing m_ext.
In order to be able to carry 5 pages (which is the minimum
required for a 16K TLS record which is not perfectly aligned) on
LP64, I've had to steal ext_arg2. The only user of this in the
xmit path is sendfile, and I've adjusted it to use arg1 when
using unmapped mbufs.
This change is almost entirely mechanical, except that we
change mb_alloc_ext_pgs() to no longer allow allocating
pkthdrs, the change to avoid ext_arg2 as mentioned above,
and the removal of the ext_pgs zone,
This change saves roughly 2% "raw" CPU (~59% -> 57%), or over

- The linked list of cryptoini structures used in session
initialization is replaced with a new flat structure: struct
crypto_session_params. This session includes a new mode to define
how the other fields should be interpreted. Available modes
include:
- COMPRESS (for compression/decompression)
- CIPHER (for simply encryption/decryption)
- DIGEST (computing and verifying digests)
- AEAD (combined auth and encryption such as AES-GCM and AES-CCM)
- ETA (combined auth and encryption using encrypt-then-authenticate)
Additional modes could be added in the future (e.g. if we wanted to
support TLS MtE for AES-CBC in the kernel we could add a new mode
for that. TLS modes might also affect how AAD is interpreted, etc.)
The flat structure also includes the key lengths and algorithms as
before. However, code doesn't have to walk the linked list and
switch on the algorithm to determine which key is the auth key vs
encryption key. The 'csp_auth_*' fields are always used for auth
keys and settings and 'csp_cipher_*' for cipher. (Compression
algorithms are stored in csp_cipher_alg.)
- Drivers no longer register a list of supported algorithms. This
doesn't quite work when you factor in modes (e.g. a driver might
support both AES-CBC and SHA2-256-HMAC separately but not combined
for ETA). Instead, a new 'crypto_probesession' method has been
added to the kobj interface for symmteric crypto drivers. This
method returns a negative value on success (similar to how
device_probe works) and the crypto framework uses this value to pick
the "best" driver. There are three constants for hardware
(e.g. ccr), accelerated software (e.g. aesni), and plain software
(cryptosoft) that give preference in that order. One effect of this
is that if you request only hardware when creating a new session,
you will no longer get a session using accelerated software.
Another effect is that the default setting to disallow software
crypto via /dev/crypto now disables accelerated software.
Once a driver is chosen, 'crypto_newsession' is invoked as before.
- Crypto operations are now solely described by the flat 'cryptop'
structure. The linked list of descriptors has been removed.
A separate enum has been added to describe the type of data buffer
in use instead of using CRYPTO_F_* flags to make it easier to add
more types in the future if needed (e.g. wired userspace buffers for
zero-copy). It will also make it easier to re-introduce separate
input and output buffers (in-kernel TLS would benefit from this).
Try to make the flags related to IV handling less insane:
- CRYPTO_F_IV_SEPARATE means that the IV is stored in the 'crp_iv'
member of the operation structure. If this flag is not set, the
IV is stored in the data buffer at the 'crp_iv_start' offset.
- CRYPTO_F_IV_GENERATE means that a random IV should be generated
and stored into the data buffer. This cannot be used with
CRYPTO_F_IV_SEPARATE.
If a consumer wants to deal with explicit vs implicit IVs, etc. it
can always generate the IV however it needs and store partial IVs in
the buffer and the full IV/nonce in crp_iv and set
CRYPTO_F_IV_SEPARATE.
The layout of the buffer is now described via fields in cryptop.
crp_aad_start and crp_aad_length define the boundaries of any AAD.
Previously with GCM and CCM you defined an auth crd with this range,
but for ETA your auth crd had to span both the AAD and plaintext
(and they had to be adjacent).
crp_payload_start and crp_payload_length define the boundaries of
the plaintext/ciphertext. Modes that only do a single operation
(COMPRESS, CIPHER, DIGEST) should only use this region and leave the
AAD region empty.
If a digest is present (or should be generated), it's starting
location is marked by crp_digest_start.
Instead of using the CRD_F_ENCRYPT flag to determine the direction
of the operation, cryptop now includes an 'op' field defining the
operation to perform. For digests I've added a new VERIFY digest
mode which assumes a digest is present in the input and fails the
request with EBADMSG if it doesn't match the internally-computed
digest. GCM and CCM already assumed this, and the new AEAD mode
requires this for decryption. The new ETA mode now also requires
this for decryption, so IPsec and GELI no longer do their own
authentication verification. Simple DIGEST operations can also do
this, though there are no in-tree consumers.
To eventually support some refcounting to close races, the session
cookie is now passed to crypto_getop() and clients should no longer
set crp_sesssion directly.
- Assymteric crypto operation structures should be allocated via
crypto_getkreq() and freed via crypto_freekreq(). This permits the
crypto layer to track open asym requests and close races with a
driver trying to unregister while asym requests are in flight.
- crypto_copyback, crypto_copydata, crypto_apply, and
crypto_contiguous_subsegment now accept the 'crp' object as the
first parameter instead of individual members. This makes it easier
to deal with different buffer types in the future as well as
separate input and output buffers. It's also simpler for driver
writers to use.
- bus_dmamap_load_crp() loads a DMA mapping for a crypto buffer.
This understands the various types of buffers so that drivers that
use DMA do not have to be aware of different buffer types.
- Helper routines now exist to build an auth context for HMAC IPAD
and OPAD. This reduces some duplicated work among drivers.
- Key buffers are now treated as const throughout the framework and in
device drivers. However, session key buffers provided when a session
is created are expected to remain alive for the duration of the
session.
- GCM and CCM sessions now only specify a cipher algorithm and a cipher
key. The redundant auth information is not needed or used.
- For cryptosoft, split up the code a bit such that the 'process'
callback now invokes a function pointer in the session. This
function pointer is set based on the mode (in effect) though it
simplifies a few edge cases that would otherwise be in the switch in
'process'.
It does split up GCM vs CCM which I think is more readable even if there
is some duplication.
- I changed /dev/crypto to support GMAC requests using CRYPTO_AES_NIST_GMAC
as an auth algorithm and updated cryptocheck to work with it.
- Combined cipher and auth sessions via /dev/crypto now always use ETA
mode. The COP_F_CIPHER_FIRST flag is now a no-op that is ignored.
This was actually documented as being true in crypto(4) before, but
the code had not implemented this before I added the CIPHER_FIRST
flag.
- I have not yet updated /dev/crypto to be aware of explicit modes for
sessions. I will probably do that at some point in the future as well
as teach it about IV/nonce and tag lengths for AEAD so we can support
all of the NIST KAT tests for GCM and CCM.
- I've split up the exising crypto.9 manpage into several pages
of which many are written from scratch.
- I have converted all drivers and consumers in the tree and verified
that they compile, but I have not tested all of them. I have tested
the following drivers:
- cryptosoft
- aesni (AES only)
- blake2
- ccr
and the following consumers:
- cryptodev
- IPsec
- ktls_ocf
- GELI (lightly)
I have not tested the following:
- ccp
- aesni with sha
- hifn
- kgssapi_krb5
- ubsec
- padlock
- safe
- armv8_crypto (aarch64)
- glxsb (i386)
- sec (ppc)
- cesa (armv7)
- cryptocteon (mips64)
- nlmsec (mips64)

When I did the use_numa support, I missed the fact that there is
a separate hash function for send tag nic selection. So when
use_numa is enabled, ktls offload does not work properly, as it
does not reliably allocate a send tag on the proper egress nic
since different egress nics are selected for send-tag allocation
and packet transmit. To fix this, this change:
- refectors lacp_select_tx_port_by_hash() and
lacp_select_tx_port() to make lacp_select_tx_port_by_hash()
always called by lacp_select_tx_port()
- pre-shifts flowids to convert them to hashes when calling lacp_select_tx_port_by_hash()
- adds a numa_domain field to if_snd_tag_alloc_params
- plumbs the numa domain into places where we allocate send tags
In testing with NIC TLS setup on a NUMA machine, I see thousands
of output errors before the change when enabling
kern.ipc.tls.ifnet.permitted=1. After the change, I see no
errors, and I see the NIC sysctl counters showing active TLS
offload sessions.
