Finish what was started a few years ago and harmonize IPv6 and IPv4
kernel names. We are down to very few places now that it is feasible
to do the change for everything remaining with causing too much disturbance.
Remove "aliases" for IPv6 names which confusingly could indicate
that we are talking about a different data structure or field or
have two fields, one for each address family.
Try to follow common conventions used in FreeBSD.
* Rename sin6p to sin6 as that is how it is spelt in most places.
* Remove "aliases" (#defines) for:
- in6pcb which really is an inpcb and nothing separate
- sotoin6pcb which is sotoinpcb (as per above)
- in6p_sp which is inp_sp
- in6p_flowinfo which is inp_flow
* Try to use ia6 for in6_addr rather than in6p.
* With all these gone also rename the in6p variables to inp as
that is what we call it in most of the network stack including
parts of netinet6.
The reasons behind this cleanup are that we try to further
unify netinet and netinet6 code where possible and that people
will less ignore one or the other protocol family when doing
code changes as they may not have spotted places due to different
names for the same thing.

Unmapped mbufs allow sendfile to carry multiple pages of data in a
single mbuf, without mapping those pages. It is a requirement for
Netflix's in-kernel TLS, and provides a 5-10% CPU savings on heavy web
serving workloads when used by sendfile, due to effectively
compressing socket buffers by an order of magnitude, and hence
reducing cache misses.
For this new external mbuf buffer type (EXT_PGS), the ext_buf pointer
now points to a struct mbuf_ext_pgs structure instead of a data
buffer. This structure contains an array of physical addresses (this
reduces cache misses compared to an earlier version that stored an
array of vm_page_t pointers). It also stores additional fields needed
for in-kernel TLS such as the TLS header and trailer data that are
currently unused. To more easily detect these mbufs, the M_NOMAP flag
is set in m_flags in addition to M_EXT.
Various functions like m_copydata() have been updated to safely access
packet contents (using uiomove_fromphys()), to make things like BPF
safe.
NIC drivers advertise support for unmapped mbufs on transmit via a new
IFCAP_NOMAP capability. This capability can be toggled via the new
'nomap' and '-nomap' ifconfig(8) commands. For NIC drivers that only
transmit packet contents via DMA and use bus_dma, adding the
capability to if_capabilities and if_capenable should be all that is
required.
If a NIC does not support unmapped mbufs, they are converted to a
chain of mapped mbufs (using sf_bufs to provide the mapping) in
ip_output or ip6_output. If an unmapped mbuf requires software
checksums, it is also converted to a chain of mapped mbufs before
computing the checksum.

instead of a linear array.
The multicast memberships for the inpcb structure are protected by a
non-sleepable lock, INP_WLOCK(), which needs to be dropped when
calling the underlying possibly sleeping if_ioctl() method. When using
a linear array to keep track of multicast memberships, the computed
memory location of the multicast filter may suddenly change, due to
concurrent insertion or removal of elements in the linear array. This
in turn leads to various invalid memory access issues and kernel
panics.
To avoid this problem, put all multicast memberships on a STAILQ based
list. Then the memory location of the IPv4 and IPv6 multicast filters
become fixed during their lifetime and use after free and memory leak
issues are easier to track, for example by: vmstat -m | grep multi
All list manipulation has been factored into inline functions
including some macros, to easily allow for a future hash-list
implementation, if needed.

- Perform ifp mismatch checks (to determine if a send tag is allocated
for a different ifp than the one the packet is being output on), in
ip_output() and ip6_output(). This avoids sending packets with send
tags to ifnet drivers that don't support send tags.
Since we are now checking for ifp mismatches before invoking
if_output, we can now try to allocate a new tag before invoking
if_output sending the original packet on the new tag if allocation
succeeds.
To avoid code duplication for the fragment and unfragmented cases,
add ip_output_send() and ip6_output_send() as wrappers around
if_output and nd6_output_ifp, respectively. All of the logic for
setting send tags and dealing with send tag-related errors is done
in these wrapper functions.
For pseudo interfaces that wrap other network interfaces (vlan and
lagg), wrapper send tags are now allocated so that ip*_output see
the wrapper ifp as the ifp in the send tag. The if_transmit
routines rewrite the send tags after performing an ifp mismatch
check. If an ifp mismatch is detected, the transmit routines fail
with EAGAIN.
- To provide clearer life cycle management of send tags, especially
in the presence of vlan and lagg wrapper tags, add a reference count
to send tags managed via m_snd_tag_ref() and m_snd_tag_rele().
Provide a helper function (m_snd_tag_init()) for use by drivers
supporting send tags. m_snd_tag_init() takes care of the if_ref
on the ifp meaning that code alloating send tags via if_snd_tag_alloc
no longer has to manage that manually. Similarly, m_snd_tag_rele
drops the refcount on the ifp after invoking if_snd_tag_free when
the last reference to a send tag is dropped.
This also closes use after free races if there are pending packets in
driver tx rings after the socket is closed (e.g. from tcpdrop).
In order for m_free to work reliably, add a new CSUM_SND_TAG flag in
csum_flags to indicate 'snd_tag' is set (rather than 'rcvif').
Drivers now also check this flag instead of checking snd_tag against
NULL. This avoids false positive matches when a forwarded packet
has a non-NULL rcvif that was treated as a send tag.
- cxgbe was relying on snd_tag_free being called when the inp was
detached so that it could kick the firmware to flush any pending
work on the flow. This is because the driver doesn't require ACK
messages from the firmware for every request, but instead does a
kind of manual interrupt coalescing by only setting a flag to
request a completion on a subset of requests. If all of the
in-flight requests don't have the flag when the tag is detached from
the inp, the flow might never return the credits. The current
snd_tag_free command issues a flush command to force the credits to
return. However, the credit return is what also frees the mbufs,
and since those mbufs now hold references on the tag, this meant
that snd_tag_free would never be called.
To fix, explicitly drop the mbuf's reference on the snd tag when the
mbuf is queued in the firmware work queue. This means that once the
inp's reference on the tag goes away and all in-flight mbufs have
been queued to the firmware, tag's refcount will drop to zero and
snd_tag_free will kick in and send the flush request. Note that we
need to avoid doing this in the middle of ethofld_tx(), so the
driver grabs a temporary reference on the tag around that loop to
defer the free to the end of the function in case it sends the last
mbuf to the queue after the inp has dropped its reference on the
tag.
- mlx5 preallocates send tags and was using the ifp pointer even when
the send tag wasn't in use. Explicitly use the ifp from other data
structures instead.
- Sprinkle some assertions in various places to assert that received
packets don't have a send tag, and that other places that overwrite
rcvif (e.g. 802.11 transmit) don't clobber a send tag pointer.

This GRE-in-UDP encapsulation allows the UDP source port field to be
used as an entropy field for load-balancing of GRE traffic in transit
networks. Also most of multiqueue network cards are able distribute
incoming UDP datagrams to different NIC queues, while very little are
able do this for GRE packets.
When an administrator enables UDP encapsulation with command
`ifconfig gre0 udpencap`, the driver creates kernel socket, that binds
to tunnel source address and after udp_set_kernel_tunneling() starts
receiving of all UDP packets destined to 4754 port. Each kernel socket
maintains list of tunnels with different destination addresses. Thus
when several tunnels use the same source address, they all handled by
single socket. The IP[V6]_BINDANY socket option is used to be able bind

The KPI have been reviewed and cleansed of features that were planned
back 20 years ago and never implemented. The pfil(9) internals have
been made opaque to protocols with only returned types and function
declarations exposed. The KPI is made more strict, but at the same time
more extensible, as kernel uses same command structures that userland
ioctl uses.
In nutshell [KA]PI is about declaring filtering points, declaring
filters and linking and unlinking them together.
New [KA]PI makes it possible to reconfigure pfil(9) configuration:
change order of hooks, rehook filter from one filtering point to a
different one, disconnect a hook on output leaving it on input only,
prepend/append a filter to existing list of filters.
Now it possible for a single packet filter to provide multiple rulesets
that may be linked to different points. Think of per-interface ACLs in
Cisco or Juniper. None of existing packet filters yet support that,
however limited usage is already possible, e.g. default ruleset can
be moved to single interface, as soon as interface would pride their
filtering points.
Another future feature is possiblity to create pfil heads, that provide
not an mbuf pointer but just a memory pointer with length. That would
allow filtering at very early stages of a packet lifecycle, e.g. when
packet has just been received by a NIC and no mbuf was yet allocated.
