Interface routes are refcounted as packets move through the stack,
and there's garbage collection tied to it so that route changes can
safely propagate while traffic is flowing. In our setup, we weren't
changing or deleting any routes, but the refcounting logic in
ip6_input() was wrong and caused a reference leak on every inbound
V6 packet. This eventually caused a 32bit overflow, and the resulting
0 value caused the garbage collection to run on the active route.

struct inpcbgroup. pcbgroups, or "connection groups", supplement the
existing inpcbinfo connection hash table, which when pcbgroups are
enabled, might now be thought of more usefully as a per-protocol
4-tuple reservation table.
Connections are assigned to connection groups base on a hash of their
4-tuple; wildcard sockets require special handling, and are members
of all connection groups. During a connection lookup, a
per-connection group lock is employed rather than the global pcbinfo
lock. By aligning connection groups with input path processing,
connection groups take on an effective CPU affinity, especially when
aligned with RSS work placement (see a forthcoming commit for
details). This eliminates cache line migration associated with
global, protocol-layer data structures in steady state TCP and UDP
processing (with the exception of protocol-layer statistics; further
commit to follow).
Elements of this approach were inspired by Willman, Rixner, and Cox's
2006 USENIX paper, "An Evaluation of Network Stack Parallelization
Strategies in Modern Operating Systems". However, there are also
significant differences: we maintain the inpcb lock, rather than using
the connection group lock for per-connection state.
Likewise, the focus of this implementation is alignment with NIC
packet distribution strategies such as RSS, rather than pure software
strategies. Despite that focus, software distribution is supported
through the parallel netisr implementation, and works well in
configurations where the number of hardware threads is greater than
the number of NIC input queues, such as in the RMI XLR threaded MIPS
architecture.
Another important difference is the continued maintenance of existing
hash tables as "reservation tables" -- these are useful both to
distinguish the resource allocation aspect of protocol name management
and the more common-case lookup aspect. In configurations where
connection tables are aligned with hardware hashes, it is desirable to
use the traditional lookup tables for loopback or encapsulated traffic
rather than take the expense of hardware hashes that are hard to
implement efficiently in software (such as RSS Toeplitz).
Connection group support is enabled by compiling "options PCBGROUP"
into your kernel configuration; for the time being, this is an
experimental feature, and hence is not enabled by default.
Subject to the limited MFCability of change dependencies in inpcb,
and its change to the inpcbinfo init function signature, this change
in principle could be merged to FreeBSD 8.x.

an explicit action for INET6 configuration happens. The changes are:
1. When an ND6 flag is changed via SIOCSIFINFO_FLAGS ioctl,
setting ND6_IFF_ACCEPT_RTADV and/or ND6_IFF_AUTO_LINKLOCAL now triggers
an attempt to clear the ND6_IFF_IFDISABLED flag.
2. When an AF_INET6 address is added successfully to an interface and
it is marked as ND6_IFF_IFDISABLED, an attempt to clear the
ND6_IFF_IFDISABLED happens.
This simplifies ND6_IFF_IFDISABLED flag manipulation by users via ifconfig(8);
in most cases manual configuration is no longer needed.
- When ND6_IFF_AUTO_LINKLOCAL is set and no link-local address is assigned to
an interface, SIOCSIFINFO_FLAGS ioctl now calls in6_ifattach() to configure
a link-local address.
This change ensures link-local address configuration when "ifconfig IF inet6"
command is invoked. For example, "ifconfig IF inet6 auto_linklocal" now
always try to configure an LL addr even if ND6_IFF_AUTO_LINKLOCAL is already
set to 1 (i.e. down/up cycle is no longer needed).

- A new per-interface knob IFF_ND6_NO_RADR and sysctl IPV6CTL_NO_RADR.
This controls if accepting a route in an RA message as the default route.
The default value for each interface can be set by net.inet6.ip6.no_radr.
The system wide default value is 0.
- A new sysctl: net.inet6.ip6.norbit_raif. This controls if setting R-bit in
NA on RA accepting interfaces. The default is 0 (R-bit is set based on
net.inet6.ip6.forwarding).
Background:
IPv6 host/router model suggests a router sends an RA and a host accepts it for
router discovery. Because of that, KAME implementation does not allow
accepting RAs when net.inet6.ip6.forwarding=1. Accepting RAs on a router can
make the routing table confused since it can change the default router
unintentionally.
However, in practice there are cases where we cannot distinguish a host from
a router clearly. For example, a customer edge router often works as a host
against the ISP, and as a router against the LAN at the same time. Another
example is a complex network configurations like an L2TP tunnel for IPv6
connection to Internet over an Ethernet link with another native IPv6 subnet.
In this case, the physical interface for the native IPv6 subnet works as a
host, and the pseudo-interface for L2TP works as the default IP forwarding
route.
Problem:
Disabling processing RA messages when net.inet6.ip6.forwarding=1 and
accepting them when net.inet6.ip6.forward=0 cause the following practical
issues:
- A router cannot perform SLAAC. It becomes a problem if a box has
multiple interfaces and you want to use SLAAC on some of them, for
example. A customer edge router for IPv6 Internet access service
using an IPv6-over-IPv6 tunnel sometimes needs SLAAC on the
physical interface for administration purpose; updating firmware
and so on (link-local addresses can be used there, but GUAs by
SLAAC are often used for scalability).
- When a host has multiple IPv6 interfaces and it receives multiple RAs on
them, controlling the default route is difficult. Router preferences
defined in RFC 4191 works only when the routers on the links are
under your control.
Details of Implementation Changes:
Router Advertisement messages will be accepted even when
net.inet6.ip6.forwarding=1. More precisely, the conditions are as
follow:
(ACCEPT_RTADV && !NO_RADR && !ip6.forwarding)
=> Normal RA processing on that interface. (as IPv6 host)
(ACCEPT_RTADV && (NO_RADR || ip6.forwarding))
=> Accept RA but add the router to the defroute list with
rtlifetime=0 unconditionally. This effectively prevents
from setting the received router address as the box's
default route.
(!ACCEPT_RTADV)
=> No RA processing on that interface.
ACCEPT_RTADV and NO_RADR are per-interface knob. In short, all interface
are classified as "RA-accepting" or not. An RA-accepting interface always
processes RA messages regardless of ip6.forwarding. The difference caused by
NO_RADR or ip6.forwarding is whether the RA source address is considered as
the default router or not.
R-bit in NA on the RA accepting interfaces is set based on
net.inet6.ip6.forwarding. While RFC 6204 W-1 rule (for CPE case) suggests
a router should disable the R-bit completely even when the box has
net.inet6.ip6.forwarding=1, I believe there is no technical reason with
doing so. This behavior can be set by a new sysctl net.inet6.ip6.norbit_raif
(the default is 0).
Usage:
# ifconfig fxp0 inet6 accept_rtadv
=> accept RA on fxp0
# ifconfig fxp0 inet6 accept_rtadv no_radr
=> accept RA on fxp0 but ignore default route information in it.
# sysctl net.inet6.ip6.norbit_no_radr=1
=> R-bit in NAs on RA accepting interfaces will always be set to 0.
hash install, etc. For now, these are arguments are unused, but as we add
RSS support, we will want to use hashes extracted from mbufs, rather than
manually calculated hashes of header fields, due to the expensive of the
software version of Toeplitz (and similar hashes).
Add notes that it would be nice to be able to pass mbufs into lookup
routines in pf(4), optimising firewall lookup in the same way, but the
code structure there doesn't facilitate that currently.
(In principle there is no reason this couldn't be MFCed -- the change
extends rather than modifies the KBI. However, it won't be useful without
other previous possibly less MFCable changes.)

- The existing ipi_lock continues to protect the global inpcb list and
inpcb counter. This lock is now relegated to a small number of
allocation and free operations, and occasional operations that walk
all connections (including, awkwardly, certain UDP multicast receive
operations -- something to revisit).
- A new ipi_hash_lock protects the two inpcbinfo hash tables for
looking up connections and bound sockets, manipulated using new
INP_HASH_*() macros. This lock, combined with inpcb locks, protects
the 4-tuple address space.
Unlike the current ipi_lock, ipi_hash_lock follows the individual inpcb
connection locks, so may be acquired while manipulating a connection on
which a lock is already held, avoiding the need to acquire the inpcbinfo
lock preemptively when a binding change might later be required. As a
result, however, lookup operations necessarily go through a reference
acquire while holding the lookup lock, later acquiring an inpcb lock --
if required.
A new function in_pcblookup() looks up connections, and accepts flags
indicating how to return the inpcb. Due to lock order changes, callers
no longer need acquire locks before performing a lookup: the lookup
routine will acquire the ipi_hash_lock as needed. In the future, it will
also be able to use alternative lookup and locking strategies
transparently to callers, such as pcbgroup lookup. New lookup flags are,
supplementing the existing INPLOOKUP_WILDCARD flag:
INPLOOKUP_RLOCKPCB - Acquire a read lock on the returned inpcb
INPLOOKUP_WLOCKPCB - Acquire a write lock on the returned inpcb
Callers must pass exactly one of these flags (for the time being).
Some notes:
- All protocols are updated to work within the new regime; especially,
TCP, UDPv4, and UDPv6. pcbinfo ipi_lock acquisitions are largely
eliminated, and global hash lock hold times are dramatically reduced
compared to previous locking.
- The TCP syncache still relies on the pcbinfo lock, something that we
may want to revisit.
- Support for reverting to the FreeBSD 7.x locking strategy in TCP input
is no longer available -- hash lookup locks are now held only very
briefly during inpcb lookup, rather than for potentially extended
periods. However, the pcbinfo ipi_lock will still be acquired if a
connection state might change such that a connection is added or
removed.
- Raw IP sockets continue to use the pcbinfo ipi_lock for protection,
due to maintaining their own hash tables.
- The interface in6_pcblookup_hash_locked() is maintained, which allows
callers to acquire hash locks and perform one or more lookups atomically
with 4-tuple allocation: this is required only for TCPv6, as there is no
in6_pcbconnect_setup(), which there should be.
- UDPv6 locking remains significantly more conservative than UDPv4
locking, which relates to source address selection. This needs
attention, as it likely significantly reduces parallelism in this code
for multithreaded socket use (such as in BIND).
- In the UDPv4 and UDPv6 multicast cases, we need to revisit locking
somewhat, as they relied on ipi_lock to stablise 4-tuple matches, which
is no longer sufficient. A second check once the inpcb lock is held
should do the trick, keeping the general case from requiring the inpcb
lock for every inpcb visited.
- This work reminds us that we need to revisit locking of the v4/v6 flags,
which may be accessed lock-free both before and after this change.
- Right now, a single lock name is used for the pcbhash lock -- this is
undesirable, and probably another argument is required to take care of
this (or a char array name field in the pcbinfo?).
This is not an MFC candidate for 8.x due to its impact on lookup and
locking semantics. It's possible some of these issues could be worked
around with compatibility wrappers, if necessary.
