the use of divert sockets to dead locks. A number of LORs have been reported
between divert and a number of other network subsystems including: IPSEC, Pfil,
multicast, ipfw and others. Other dead locks could occur because of recursive
entry into the IP stack. This change should take care of most if not all of
these issues.
A summary of the changes follow:
- We disallow multicast operations on divert sockets. It really doesn't make
semantic sense to allow this, since typically you would set multicast
parameters on multicast end points.
NOTE: As a part of this change, we actually dis-allow multicast options on
any socket that IS a divert socket OR IS NOT a SOCK_RAW or SOCK_DGRAM family
- We check to see if there are any socket options that have been specified on
the socket, and if there was (which is very un-common and also probably
doesnt make sense to support) we duplicate the mbuf carrying the options.
- We then drop the INP/INFO locks over the call to ip_output(). It should be
noted that since we no longer support multicast operations on divert sockets
and we have duplicated any socket options, we no longer need the reference
to the pcb to be coherent.
- Finally, we replaced the call to ip_input() to use netisr queuing. This
should remove the recursive entry into the IP stack from divert.
By dropping the locks over the call to ip_output() we eliminate all the lock
ordering issues above. By switching over to netisr on the inbound path,
we can no longer recursively enter the ip_input() code via divert.
I have tested this change by using the following command:
ipfwpcap -r 8000 - | tcpdump -r - -nn -v
This should exercise the input and re-injection (outbound) path, which is
very similar to the work load performed by natd(8). Additionally, I have
run some ospf daemons which have a heavy reliance on raw sockets and
multicast.

Discussed with: julian, andre et al (on freebsd-net)
In collaboration with: bms [1], rwatson [2]
[1] bms helped out with the multicast decisions
[2] rwatson submitted the original netisr patches and came up with some
of the original ideas on how to combat this issue.
With the in_mcast.c code, if an interface for an IPv4 multicast join was
not specified, and a route did not exist for the specified group in the
unicast forwarding tables, the join would be rejected with the error
EADDRNOTAVAIL.
This change restores the old behaviour whereby if no interface is specified,
and no route exists for the group destination, the IPv4 address list is
walked to find a non-loopback, multicast-capable interface to satisfy
the join request.
This should resolve problems with starting multicast services during
system boot or when a default forwarding entry does not exist.

and protocol-independent host mode multicast. The code is written to
accomodate IPv6, IGMPv3 and MLDv2 with only a little additional work.
This change only pertains to FreeBSD's use as a multicast end-station and
does not concern multicast routing; for an IGMPv3/MLDv2 router
implementation, consider the XORP project.
The work is based on Wilbert de Graaf's IGMPv3 code drop for FreeBSD 4.6,
which is available at: http://www.kloosterhof.com/wilbert/igmpv3.html
Summary
* IPv4 multicast socket processing is now moved out of ip_output.c
into a new module, in_mcast.c.
* The in_mcast.c module implements the IPv4 legacy any-source API in
terms of the protocol-independent source-specific API.
* Source filters are lazy allocated as the common case does not use them.
They are part of per inpcb state and are covered by the inpcb lock.
* struct ip_mreqn is now supported to allow applications to specify
multicast joins by interface index in the legacy IPv4 any-source API.
* In UDP, an incoming multicast datagram only requires that the source
port matches the 4-tuple if the socket was already bound by source port.
An unbound socket SHOULD be able to receive multicasts sent from an
ephemeral source port.
* The UDP socket multicast filter mode defaults to exclusive, that is,
sources present in the per-socket list will be blocked from delivery.
* The RFC 3678 userland functions have been added to libc: setsourcefilter,
getsourcefilter, setipv4sourcefilter, getipv4sourcefilter.
* Definitions for IGMPv3 are merged but not yet used.
* struct sockaddr_storage is now referenced from <netinet/in.h>. It
is therefore defined there if not already declared in the same way
as for the C99 types.
* The RFC 1724 hack (specify 0.0.0.0/8 addresses to IP_MULTICAST_IF
which are then interpreted as interface indexes) is now deprecated.
* A patch for the Rhyolite.com routed in the FreeBSD base system
is available in the -net archives. This only affects individuals
running RIPv1 or RIPv2 via point-to-point and/or unnumbered interfaces.
* Make IPv6 detach path similar to IPv4's in code flow; functionally same.
* Bump __FreeBSD_version to 700048; see UPDATING.
