- Re-write tcp_ctlinput6() to closely mimic the IPv4 tcp_ctlinput()
- Now that tcp_ctlinput6() updates t_maxseg, we can allow ip6_output()
to send TCP packets without looking at the tcp host cache for every
single transmit.
- Make the icmp6 code mimic the IPv4 code & avoid returning
PRC_HOSTDEAD because it is so expensive.
Without these changes in place, every TCP6 pmtu discovery or host
unreachable ICMP resulted in a call to in6_pcbnotify() which walks the
tcbinfo table with the write lock held. Because the tcbinfo table is
shared between IPv4 and IPv6, this causes huge scalabilty issues on
servers with lots of (~100K) TCP connections, to the point where even
a small percent of IPv6 traffic had a disproportionate impact on
overall throughput.

in6_selectsrc() has 2 class of users: socket-based one (raw/udp/pcb/etc) and
socket-less (ND code). The main reason for that change is inability to
specify non-default FIB for callers w/o socket since (internally) inpcb
is used to determine fib.
As as result, add 2 wrappers for in6_selectsrc() (making in6_selectsrc()
static):
1) in6_selectsrc_socket() for the former class. Embed scope_ambiguous check
along with returning hop limit when needed.
2) in6_selectsrc_addr() for the latter case. Add 'fibnum' argument and
pass IPv6 address w/ explicitly specified scope as separate argument.

in6_selectif().
The main task of in6_selectsrc() is to return IPv6 SAS (along with
output interface used for scope checks). No data-path code uses
route argument for caching. The only users are icmp6 (reflect code),
ND6 ns/na generation code. All this fucntions are control-plane, so
there is no reason to try to 'optimize' something by passing cached
route into to ip6_output(). Given that, simplify code by eliminating
in6_selectsrc() 'struct route_in6' argument. Since in6_selectif() is
used only by in6_selectsrc(), eliminate its 'struct route_in6' argument,
too. While here, reshape rte-related code inside in6_selectif() to
free lookup result immediately after saving all the needed fields.
Add if_requestencap() interface method which is capable of calculating
various link headers for given interface. Right now there is support
for INET/INET6/ARP llheader calculation (IFENCAP_LL type request).
Other types are planned to support more complex calculation
(L2 multipath lagg nexthops, tunnel encap nexthops, etc..).
Reshape 'struct route' to be able to pass additional data (with is length)
to prepend to mbuf.
These two changes permits routing code to pass pre-calculated nexthop data
(like L2 header for route w/gateway) down to the stack eliminating the
need for other lookups. It also brings us closer to more complex scenarios
like transparently handling MPLS nexthops and tunnel interfaces.
Last, but not least, it removes layering violation introduced by flowtable
code (ro_lle) and simplifies handling of existing if_output consumers.
ARP/ND changes:
Make arp/ndp stack pre-calculate link header upon installing/updating lle
record. Interface link address change are handled by re-calculating
headers for all lles based on if_lladdr event. After these changes,
arpresolve()/nd6_resolve() returns full pre-calculated header for
supported interfaces thus simplifying if_output().
Move these lookups to separate ether_resolve_addr() function which ether
returs error or fully-prepared link header. Add <arp|nd6_>resolve_addr()
compat versions to return link addresses instead of pre-calculated data.
BPF changes:
Raw bpf writes occupied _two_ cases: AF_UNSPEC and pseudo_AF_HDRCMPLT.
Despite the naming, both of there have ther header "complete". The only
difference is that interface source mac has to be filled by OS for
AF_UNSPEC (controlled via BIOCGHDRCMPLT). This logic has to stay inside
BPF and not pollute if_output() routines. Convert BPF to pass prepend data
via new 'struct route' mechanism. Note that it does not change
non-optimized if_output(): ro_prepend handling is purely optional.
Side note: hackish pseudo_AF_HDRCMPLT is supported for ethernet and FDDI.
It is not needed for ethernet anymore. The only remaining FDDI user is
dev/pdq mostly untouched since 2007. FDDI support was eliminated from
OpenBSD in 2013 (sys/net/if_fddisubr.c rev 1.65).
Flowtable changes:
Flowtable violates layering by saving (and not correctly managing)
rtes/lles. Instead of passing lle pointer, pass pointer to pre-calculated
header data from that lle.

Add kernel side support for Secure Neighbor Discovery (SeND), RFC 3971.
The implementation consists of a kernel module that gets packets from
the nd6 code, sends them to user space on a dedicated socket and reinjects
them back for further processing.
Hooks are used from nd6 code paths to divert relevant packets to the
send implementation for processing in user space. The hooks are only
triggered if the send module is loaded. In case no user space
application is connected to the send socket, processing continues
normaly as if the module would not be loaded. Unloading the module
is not possible at this time due to missing nd6 locking.
The native SeND socket is similar to a raw IPv6 socket but with its own,
internal pseudo-protocol.

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.
