there is an environment variable which shall initialize the SYSCTL
during early boot. This works for all SYSCTL types both statically and
dynamically created ones, except for the SYSCTL NODE type and SYSCTLs
which belong to VNETs. A new flag, CTLFLAG_NOFETCH, has been added to
be used in the case a tunable sysctl has a custom initialisation
function allowing the sysctl to still be marked as a tunable. The
kernel SYSCTL API is mostly the same, with a few exceptions for some
special operations like iterating childrens of a static/extern SYSCTL
node. This operation should probably be made into a factored out
common macro, hence some device drivers use this. The reason for
changing the SYSCTL API was the need for a SYSCTL parent OID pointer
and not only the SYSCTL parent OID list pointer in order to quickly
generate the sysctl path. The motivation behind this patch is to avoid
parameter loading cludges inside the OFED driver subsystem. Instead of
adding special code to the OFED driver subsystem to post-load tunables
into dynamically created sysctls, we generalize this in the kernel.
Other changes:
- Corrected a possibly incorrect sysctl name from "hw.cbb.intr_mask"
to "hw.pcic.intr_mask".
- Removed redundant TUNABLE statements throughout the kernel.
- Some minor code rewrites in connection to removing not needed
TUNABLE statements.
- Added a missing SYSCTL_DECL().
- Wrapped two very long lines.
- Avoid malloc()/free() inside sysctl string handling, in case it is
called to initialize a sysctl from a tunable, hence malloc()/free() is
not ready when sysctls from the sysctl dataset are registered.
- Bumped FreeBSD version to indicate SYSCTL API change.

interface allows the ifnet structure to be defined as an opaque
type in NIC drivers. This then allows the ifnet structure to be
changed without a need to change or recompile NIC drivers.
Put differently, NIC drivers can be written and compiled once and
be used with different network stack implementations, provided of
course that those network stack implementations have an API and
ABI compatible interface.
This commit introduces the 'if_t' type to replace 'struct ifnet *'
as the type of a network interface. The 'if_t' type is defined as
'void *' to enable the compiler to perform type conversion to
'struct ifnet *' and vice versa where needed and without warnings.
The functions that implement the API are the only functions that
need to have an explicit cast.
The MII code has been converted to use the driver API to avoid
unnecessary code churn. Code churn comes from having to work with
both converted and unconverted drivers in correlation with having
callback functions that take an interface. By converting the MII
code first, the callback functions can be defined so that the
compiler will perform the typecasts automatically.
As soon as all drivers have been converted, the if_t type can be
redefined as needed and the API functions can be fix to not need
an explicit cast.
The immediate benefactors of this change are:
1. Juniper Networks - The network stack implementation in Junos
is entirely different from FreeBSD's one and this change
allows Juniper to build "stock" NIC drivers that can be used
in combination with both the FreeBSD and Junos stacks.
2. FreeBSD - This change opens the door towards changing ifnet
and implementing new features and optimizations in the network
stack without it requiring a change in the many NIC drivers
FreeBSD has.

network interfaces limited to 32 transmit segments, there
are two known issues.
The more serious one is that for an I/O of slightly less than 64K,
the net device driver prepends an ethernet header, resulting in a
TSO segment slightly larger than 64K. Since m_defrag() copies this
into 33 mbuf clusters, the transmit fails with EFBIG.
A tester indicated observing a similar failure using iSCSI.
The second less critical problem is that the network
device driver must copy the mbuf chain via m_defrag()
(m_collapse() is not sufficient), resulting in measurable overhead.
This patch reduces the default size of if_hw_tsomax
slightly, so that the first issue is avoided.
Fixing the second issue will require a way for the
network device driver to inform tcp_output() that it
is limited to 32 transmit segments.

This KASSERT() existed as a sanity check that upper layers in the network
stack (e.g. inet, inet6) had released their reference to the underlying
driver's multicast memberships (ifmultiaddr{}). However it assumes the
lifecycle of the driver membership corresponds to the lifecycle of the
network layer membership.
In the submitter's case, ieee80211_ioctl_updatemulti() attempts to
reprogram the (parent, physical) ifnet{} memberships in response
to a change in membership on the (child, virtual) VAP ifnet, using
a batched update mechanism. These updates happen independently from
the network layer, causing a "false negative" assertion failure.
There are possibly other use cases where this KASSERT() may be triggered
by other networking stack activity (e.g. where a nesting relationship
exists between multiple ifnet{} instances). This suggests that further
review of FreeBSD's approach to nested ifnet relationships is needed.

Fix multiple kernel panics when VIMAGE is enabled in the kernel.
These fixes are based on patches submitted by Adrian Chadd and Marko Zec.
(1) Set curthread->td_vnet to vnet0 in device_probe_and_attach() just before calling
device_attach(). This fixes multiple VIMAGE related kernel panics
when trying to attach Bluetooth or USB Ethernet devices because
curthread->td_vnet is NULL.
(2) Set curthread->td_vnet in if_detach(). This fixes kernel panics when detaching networking
interfaces, especially USB Ethernet devices.
(3) Use VNET_DOMAIN_SET() in ng_btsocket.c
(4) In ng_unref_node() set curthread->td_vnet. This fixes kernel panics

limited in the amount of data they can handle at once.
Drivers can set ifp->if_hw_tsomax before calling ether_ifattach() to
change the limit.
The lowest allowable size is IP_MAXPACKET / 8 (8192 bytes) as anything
less wouldn't be very useful anymore. The upper limit is still at
IP_MAXPACKET (65536 bytes). Raising it requires further auditing of
the IPv4/v6 code path's as the length field in the IP header would
overflow leading to confusion in firewalls and others packet handler on
the real size of the packet.
The placement into "struct ifnet" is a bit hackish but the best place
that was found. When the stack/driver boundary is updated it should
be handled in a better way.

7.x, 8.x and 9.x with pf(4) imports: pfsync(4) should suppress CARP
preemption, while it is running its bulk update.
However, reimplement the feature in more elegant manner, that is
partially inspired by newer OpenBSD:
- Rename term "suppression" to "demotion", to match with OpenBSD.
- Keep a global demotion factor, that can be raised by several
conditions, for now these are:
- interface goes down
- carp(4) has problems with ip_output() or ip6_output()
- pfsync performs bulk update
- Unlike in OpenBSD the demotion factor isn't a counter, but
is actual value added to advskew. The adjustment values for
particular error conditions are also configurable, and their
defaults are maximum advskew value, so a single failure bumps
demotion to maximum. This is for POLA compatibility, and should
satisfy most users.
- Demotion factor is a writable sysctl, so user can do
foot shooting, if he desires to.
from scratch, copying needed functionality from the old implemenation
on demand, with a thorough review of all code. The main change is that
interface layer has been removed from the CARP. Now redundant addresses
are configured exactly on the interfaces, they run on.
The CARP configuration itself is, as before, configured and read via
SIOCSVH/SIOCGVH ioctls. A new prefix created with SIOCAIFADDR or
SIOCAIFADDR_IN6 may now be configured to a particular virtual host id,
which makes the prefix redundant.
ifconfig(8) semantics has been changed too: now one doesn't need
to clone carpXX interface, he/she should directly configure a vhid
on a Ethernet interface.
To supply vhid data from the kernel to an application the getifaddrs(8)
function had been changed to pass ifam_data with each address. [1]
The new implementation definitely closes all PRs related to carp(4)
being an interface, and may close several others. It also allows
to run a single redundant IP per interface.
Big thanks to Bjoern Zeeb for his help with inet6 part of patch, for
idea on using ifam_data and for several rounds of reviewing!
