Problem description:
How do we currently perform layer 2 resolution and header imposition:
For IPv4 we have the following chain:
ip_output() -> (ether|atm|whatever)_output() -> arpresolve()
Lookup is done in proper place (link-layer output routine) and it is possible
to provide cached lle data.
For IPv6 situation is more complex:
ip6_output() -> nd6_output() -> nd6_output_ifp() -> (whatever)_output() ->
nd6_storelladdr()
We have ip6_ouput() which calls nd6_output() instead of link output routine.
nd6_output() does the following:
* checks if lle exists, creates it if needed (similar to arpresolve())
* performes lle state transitions (similar to arpresolve())
* calls nd6_output_ifp() which pushes packets to link output routine along
with running SeND/MAC hooks regardless of lle state
(e.g. works as run-hooks placeholder).
After that, iface output routine like ether_output() calls nd6_storelladdr()
which performs lle lookup once again.
As a result, we perform lookup twice for each outgoing packet for most types
of interfaces. We also need to maintain runtime-checked table of 'nd6-free'
interfaces (see nd6_need_cache()).
Fix this behavior by eliminating first ND lookup. To be more specific:
* make all nd6_output() consumers use nd6_output_ifp() instead
* rename nd6_output[_slow]() to nd6_resolve_[slow]()
* convert nd6_resolve() and nd6_resolve_slow() to arpresolve() semantics,
e.g. copy L2 address to buffer instead of pushing packet towards lower
layers
* Make all nd6_storelladdr() users use nd6_resolve()
* eliminate nd6_storelladdr()
The resulting callchain is the following:
ip6_output() -> nd6_output_ifp() -> (whatever)_output() -> nd6_resolve()
Error handling:
Currently sending packet to non-existing la results in ip6_<output|forward>
-> nd6_output() -> nd6_output _lle() which returns 0.
In new scenario packet is propagated to <ether|whatever>_output() ->
nd6_resolve() which will return EWOULDBLOCK, and that result
will be converted to 0.
(And EWOULDBLOCK is actually used by IB/TOE code).

MAD agent struct has been been freed, and this results in a use-after-free
when the task's ta_pending count is incremented in the callout handler.

operations that map a single page that has an associated vm_page_t.
This does not permit mapping larger regions (such as a PCI memory
BAR) and it does not permit mapping addresses beyond the top of RAM
(such as a 64-bit BAR located above the top of RAM).
Instead of using a single OBJT_DEVICE object and passing the physaddr via
the offset as a hack, create a new sglist and OBJT_SG object for each
mmap request. The requested memory attribute is applied to the object
thus affecting all pages mapped by the request.

from the behaviour in Linux, whose implementation does not add the extra

This addresses some incorrect handling of IB MAD timeouts, since some IB

- Close a migration race where callout_reset() failed to set the
CALLOUT_ACTIVE flag.
- Callout callback functions are now allowed to be protected by
spinlocks.
- Switching the callout CPU number cannot always be done on a
per-callout basis. See the updated timeout(9) manual page for more
information.
- The timeout(9) manual page has been updated to reflect how all the
functions inside the callout API are working. The manual page has
been made function oriented to make it easier to deduce how each of
the functions making up the callout API are working without having
to first read the whole manual page. Group all functions into a
handful of sections which should give a quick top-level overview
when the different functions should be used.
- The CALLOUT_SHAREDLOCK flag and its functionality has been removed
to reduce the complexity in the callout code and to avoid problems
about atomically stopping callouts via callout_stop(). If someone
needs it, it can be re-added. From my quick grep there are no
CALLOUT_SHAREDLOCK clients in the kernel.
- A new callout API function named "callout_drain_async()" has been
added. See the updated timeout(9) manual page for a complete
description.
- Update the callout clients in the "kern/" folder to use the callout
API properly, like cv_timedwait(). Previously there was some custom
sleepqueue code in the callout subsystem, which has been removed,
because we now allow callouts to be protected by spinlocks. This
allows us to tear down the callout like done with regular mutexes,
and a "td_slpmutex" has been added to "struct thread" to atomically
teardown the "td_slpcallout". Further the "TDF_TIMOFAIL" and
"SWT_SLEEPQTIMO" states can now be completely removed. Currently
they are marked as available and will be cleaned up in a follow up
commit.
- Bump the __FreeBSD_version to indicate kernel modules need
recompilation.
- There has been several reports that this patch "seems to squash a
serious bug leading to a callout timeout and panic".
