bc9d299133 Change the definition of struct if_data's member ifi_epoch from wall
clock time to uptime because wall clock time may go backwards.

This is a change in the API which will impact SNMP agents who are using
ifi_epoch to set RFC2233's ifCounterDiscontinuityTime.  None are know to
exist today.  This will not impact applications that are using the
<index, epoch> tuple to verify interface uniqueness except that it
eliminates a race which could lead to a false assumption of uniqueness.

Because this is a behavior change, bump __FreeBSD_version.

1f48dc25d7 sync comment on IFF_OACTIVE with reality.. IFF_OACTIVE is set when the
hardware cannot take anymore packets, and so will supress the calling of

55287f2a60 Re-add ifi_epoch, to struct if_data, this time replacing ifi_unused
to avoid ABI changes.  It is set to the last time the interface
counters were zeroed, currently the time if_attach() was called.  It is
intentended to be a valid value for RFC2233's ifCounterDiscontinuityTime
and to make it easier for applications to verify that the interface they
find at a given index is the one that was there last time they looked.

Due to space constraints ifi_epoch is a time_t rather then a struct
timeval.  SNMP would prefer higher precision, but this unlikely to be
useful in practice.

4ff62bd97b Back out ifi_epoch. The ABI breakage is too disruptive this close to

using the space currently allocated to ifi_unused.

9e734b4468 Use a spare byte in struct if_data to store the structure size without
increasing it.  Add code to ifconfig to use this size to find the
sockaddr_dl after the struct if_data in the routing message.  This
allows struct if_data to grow (up to 255 bytes) without breaking
ifconfig.

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.

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.

o Allow jail inheritence to be a function of credential inheritence.
o Abstract prison structure reference counting behind pr_hold() and
  pr_free(), invoked by the similarly named credential reference
  management functions, removing this code from per-ABI fork/exit code.
o Modify various jail() functions to use struct ucred arguments instead
  of struct proc arguments.
o Introduce jailed() function to determine if a credential is jailed,
  rather than directly checking pointers all over the place.

o Some further cleanup of the linux/jail code is still required.
o It's now possible to consider resolving some of the process vs

o Mutex protection of struct prison is still not present, and is

75c1354190 This Implements the mumbled about "Jail" feature.
This is a seriously beefed up chroot kind of thing.  The process
is jailed along the same lines as a chroot does it, but with
additional tough restrictions imposed on what the superuser can do.

For all I know, it is safe to hand over the root bit inside a
prison to the customer living in that prison, this is what
it was developed for in fact:  "real virtual servers".

Each prison has an ip number associated with it, which all IP
communications will be coerced to use and each prison has its own
hostname.

Needless to say, you need more RAM this way, but the advantage is
that each customer can run their own particular version of apache
and not stomp on the toes of their neighbors.

It generally does what one would expect, but setting up a jail
still takes a little knowledge.

A few notes:

   I have no scripts for setting up a jail, don't ask me for them.

   The IP number should be an alias on one of the interfaces.

   mount a /proc in each jail, it will make ps more useable.

   /proc/<pid>/status tells the hostname of the prison for
   jailed processes.

   Quotas are only sensible if you have a mountpoint per prison.

   There are no privisions for stopping resource-hogging.

   Some "#ifdef INET" and similar may be missing (send patches!)

If somebody wants to take it from here and develop it into
more of a "virtual machine" they should be most welcome!

Tools, comments, patches & documentation most welcome.

Have fun...
