It allows implementing loadable kernel modules with new actions and
without needing to modify kernel headers and ipfw(8). The module
registers its action handler and keyword string, that will be used
as action name. Using generic syntax user can add rules with this
action. Also ipfw(8) can be easily modified to extend basic syntax
for external actions, that become a part base system.
Sample modules will coming soon.

This is the last major change in given branch.
Kernel changes:
* Use 64-bytes structures to hold multi-value variables.
* Use shared array to hold values from all tables (assume
each table algo is capable of holding 32-byte variables).
* Add some placeholders to support per-table value arrays in future.
* Use simple eventhandler-style API to ease the process of adding new
table items. Currently table addition may required multiple UH drops/
acquires which is quite tricky due to atomic table modificatio/swap
support, shared array resize, etc. Deal with it by calling special
notifier capable of rolling back state before actually performing
swap/resize operations. Original operation then restarts itself after
acquiring UH lock.
* Bump all objhash users default values to at least 64
* Fix custom hashing inside objhash.
Userland changes:
* Add support for dumping shared value array via "vlist" internal cmd.
* Some small print/fill_flags dixes to support u32 values.
* valtype is now bitmask of
<skipto|pipe|fib|nat|dscp|tag|divert|netgraph|limit|ipv4|ipv6>.
New values can hold distinct values for each of this types.
* Provide special "legacy" type which assumes all values are the same.
* More helpers/docs following..
Some examples:
3:41 [1] zfscurr0# ipfw table mimimi create valtype skipto,limit,ipv4,ipv6
3:41 [1] zfscurr0# ipfw table mimimi info
+++ table(mimimi), set(0) +++
kindex: 2, type: addr
references: 0, valtype: skipto,limit,ipv4,ipv6
algorithm: addr:radix
items: 0, size: 296
3:42 [1] zfscurr0# ipfw table mimimi add 10.0.0.5 3000,10,10.0.0.1,2a02:978:2::1
added: 10.0.0.5/32 3000,10,10.0.0.1,2a02:978:2::1
3:42 [1] zfscurr0# ipfw table mimimi list
+++ table(mimimi), set(0) +++
10.0.0.5/32 3000,0,10.0.0.1,2a02:978:2::1
Most of the tablearg-supported opcodes does not accept 0 as valid value:
O_TAG, O_TAGGED, O_PIPE, O_QUEUE, O_DIVERT, O_TEE, O_SKIPTO, O_CALLRET,
O_NETGRAPH, O_NGTEE, O_NAT treats 0 as invalid input.
The rest are O_SETDSCP and O_SETFIB.
'Fix' them by adding high-order bit (0x8000) set for non-tablearg values.
Do translation in kernel for old clients (import_rule0 / export_rule0),
teach current ipfw(8) binary to add/remove given bit.
This change does not affect handling SETDSCP values, but limit
O_SETFIB values to 32767 instead of 65k. Since currently we have either
old (16) or new (2^32) max fibs, this should not be a big deal:
we're definitely OK for former and have to add another opcode to deal
with latter, regardless of tablearg value.
* Since there seems to be lack of consensus on strict value typing,
remove non-default value types. Use userland-only "value format type"
to print values.
Kernel changes:
* Add IP_FW_XMODIFY to permit table run-time modifications.
Currently we support changing limit and value format type.
Userland changes:
* Support IP_FW_XMODIFY opcode.
* Support specifying value format type (ftype) in tablble create/modify req
* Fine-print value type/value format type.
Kernel changes:
* Add opcode IP_FW_TABLE_XSWAP
* Add support for swapping 2 tables with the same type/ftype/vtype.
* Make skipto cache init after ipfw locks init.
Userland changes:
* Add "table X swap Y" command.
Kernel changes:
* Add TEI_FLAGS_DONTADD entry flag to indicate that insert is not possible
* Support given flag in all algorithms
* Add "limit" field to ipfw_xtable_info
* Add actual limiting code into add_table_entry()
Userland changes:
* Add "limit" option as "create" table sub-option. Limit modification
is currently impossible.
* Print human-readable errors in table enry addition/deletion code.
* Add "flow:hash" algorithm
Kernel changes:
* Add O_IP_FLOW_LOOKUP opcode to support "flow" lookups
* Add IPFW_TABLE_FLOW table type
* Add "struct tflow_entry" as strage for 6-tuple flows
* Add "flow:hash" algorithm. Basically it is auto-growing chained hash table.
Additionally, we store mask of fields we need to compare in each instance/
* Increase ipfw_obj_tentry size by adding struct tflow_entry
* Add per-algorithm stat (ifpw_ta_tinfo) to ipfw_xtable_info
* Increase algoname length: 32 -> 64 (algo options passed there as string)
* Assume every table type can be customized by flags, use u8 to store "tflags" field.
* Simplify ipfw_find_table_entry() by providing @tentry directly to algo callback.
* Fix bug in cidr:chash resize procedure.
Userland changes:
* add "flow table(NAME)" syntax to support n-tuple checking tables.
* make fill_flags() separate function to ease working with _s_x arrays
* change "table info" output to reflect longer "type" fields

* Rewrite interface tables to use interface indexes
Kernel changes:
* Add generic interface tracking API:
- ipfw_iface_ref (must call unlocked, performs lazy init if needed, allocates
state & bumps ref)
- ipfw_iface_add_ntfy(UH_WLOCK+WLOCK, links comsumer & runs its callback to
update ifindex)
- ipfw_iface_del_ntfy(UH_WLOCK+WLOCK, unlinks consumer)
- ipfw_iface_unref(unlocked, drops reference)
Additionally, consumer callbacks are called in interface withdrawal/departure.
* Rewrite interface tables to use iface tracking API. Currently tables are
implemented the following way:
runtime data is stored as sorted array of {ifidx, val} for existing interfaces
full data is stored inside namedobj instance (chained hashed table).
* Add IP_FW_XIFLIST opcode to dump status of tracked interfaces
* Pass @chain ptr to most non-locked algorithm callbacks:
(prepare_add, prepare_del, flush_entry ..). This may be needed for better
interaction of given algorithm an other ipfw subsystems
* Add optional "change_ti" algorithm handler to permit updating of
cached table_info pointer (happens in case of table_max resize)
* Fix small bug in ipfw_list_tables()
* Add badd (insert into sorted array) and bdel (remove from sorted array) funcs
Userland changes:
* Add "iflist" cmd to print status of currently tracked interface
* Add stringnum_cmp for better interface/table names sorting
Kernel changes:
* Introduce ipfw_obj_tentry table entry structure to force u64 alignment.
* Support "update-on-existing-key" "add" bahavior (TEI_FLAGS_UPDATED).
* Use "subtype" field to distingush between IPv4 and IPv6 table records
instead of previous hack.
* Add value type (vtype) field for kernel tables. Current types are
number,ip and dscp
* Fix sets mask retrieval for old binaries
* Fix crash while using interface tables
Userland changes:
* Switch ipfw_table_handler() to use named-only tables.
* Add "table NAME create [type {cidr|iface|u32} [valtype {number|ip|dscp}] ..."
* Switch ipfw_table_handler to match_token()-based parser.
* Switch ipfw_sets_handler to use new ipfw_get_config() for mask retrieval.
* Allow ipfw set X table ... syntax to permit using per-set table namespaces.
Kernel changes:
* change base TLV header to be u64 (so size can be u32).
* Introduce ipfw_obj_ctlv generc container TLV.
* Add IP_FW_XGET opcode which is now used for atomic configuration
retrieval. One can specify needed configuration pieces to retrieve
via flags field. Currently supported are
IPFW_CFG_GET_STATIC (static rules) and
IPFW_CFG_GET_STATES (dynamic states).
Other configuration pieces (tables, pipes, etc..) support is planned.
Userland changes:
* Switch ipfw(8) to use new IP_FW_XGET for rule listing.
* Split rule listing code get and show pieces.
* Make several steps forward towards libipfw:
permit printing states and rules(paritally) to supplied buffer.
do not die on malloc/kernel failure inside given printing functions.
stop assuming cmdline_opts is global symbol.
Kernel changes:
* Add IP_FW_OBJ_FLUSH opcode (flush table based on its name/set)
* Add IP_FW_OBJ_DUMP opcode (dumps table data based on its names/set)
* Add IP_FW_OBJ_LISTSIZE / IP_FW_OBJ_LIST opcodes (get list of kernel tables)
Userland changes:
* move tables code to separate tables.c file
* get rid of tables_max
* switch "all"/list handling to new opcodes
Setting DSCP support is done via O_SETDSCP which works for both
IPv4 and IPv6 packets. Fast checksum recalculation (RFC 1624) is done for IPv4.
Dscp can be specified by name (AFXY, CSX, BE, EF), by value
(0..63) or via tablearg.
Matching DSCP is done via another opcode (O_DSCP) which accepts several
classes at once (af11,af22,be). Classes are stored in bitmask (2 u32 words).

possible to organize subroutines with rules.
The "call" action saves the current rule number in the internal
stack and rules processing continues from the first rule with
specified number (similar to skipto action). If later a rule with
"return" action is encountered, the processing returns to the first
rule with number of "call" rule saved in the stack plus one or higher.

"globalport" option for multiple NAT instances.
If ipfw rule contains "global" keyword instead of nat_number, then
for each outgoing packet ipfw_nat looks up translation state in all
configured nat instances. If an entry is found, packet aliased
according to that entry, otherwise packet is passed unchanged.
User can specify "skip_global" option in NAT configuration to exclude
an instance from the lookup in global mode.

the "sockarg" ipfw option matches packets associated to
a local socket and with a non-zero so_user_cookie value.
The value is made available as tablearg, so it can be used
as a skipto target or pipe number in ipfw/dummynet rules.

of ip->ip_tos) in a table. This can be useful to direct traffic to
different pipes/queues according to the DSCP of the packet, as follows:
ipfw add 100 queue tablearg lookup dscp 3 // table 3 maps dscp->queue
This change is a no-op (but harmless) until the two-line kernel
side is committed, which will happen shortly.
and tested over the past two months in the ipfw3-head branch. This
also happens to be the same code available in the Linux and Windows
ports of ipfw and dummynet.
The major enhancement is a completely restructured version of
dummynet, with support for different packet scheduling algorithms
(loadable at runtime), faster queue/pipe lookup, and a much cleaner
internal architecture and kernel/userland ABI which simplifies
future extensions.
In addition to the existing schedulers (FIFO and WF2Q+), we include
a Deficit Round Robin (DRR or RR for brevity) scheduler, and a new,
very fast version of WF2Q+ called QFQ.
Some test code is also present (in sys/netinet/ipfw/test) that
lets you build and test schedulers in userland.
Also, we have added a compatibility layer that understands requests
from the RELENG_7 and RELENG_8 versions of the /sbin/ipfw binaries,
and replies correctly (at least, it does its best; sometimes you
just cannot tell who sent the request and how to answer).
The compatibility layer should make it possible to MFC this code in a
relatively short time.
Some minor glitches (e.g. handling of ipfw set enable/disable,
and a workaround for a bug in RELENG_7's /sbin/ipfw) will be
fixed with separate commits.
CREDITS:
This work has been partly supported by the ONELAB2 project, and
mostly developed by Riccardo Panicucci and myself.
The code for the qfq scheduler is mostly from Fabio Checconi,

debugging and some bug fixes.

which searches the specified field in table N and sets tablearg
accordingly.
With dst-ip or src-ip the option replicates two existing options.
When used with other arguments, the option can be useful to
quickly dispatch traffic based on other fields.

types of MAC overheads such as preambles, link level retransmissions
and more.
Note- this commit changes the userland/kernel ABI for pipes
(but not for ordinary firewall rules) so you need to rebuild
kernel and /sbin/ipfw to use dummynet features.
Please check the manpage for details on the new feature.
The MFC would be trivial but it breaks the ABI, so it will
be postponed until after 7.2 is released.
Interested users are welcome to apply the patch manually
to their RELENG_7 tree.

Usual moving of code with no changes from ipfw2.c to the
newly created files, and addition of prototypes to ipfw2.h
I have added forward declarations for ipfw_insn_* in ipfw2.h
to avoid a global dependency on ip_fw.h
In this episode:
- introduce a common header with a minimal set of common definitions;
- bring the main() function and options parser in main.c
- rename the main functions with an ipfw_ prefix
No code changes except for the introduction of a global variable,
resvd_set_number, which stores the RESVD_SET value from ip_fw.h
and is used to remove the dependency of main.c from ip_fw.h
(and the subtree of dependencies) for just a single constant.
