These changes prevent sysctl(8) from returning proper output,
such as:
1) no output from sysctl(8)
2) erroneously returning ENOMEM with tools like truss(1)
or uname(1)
truss: can not get etype: Cannot allocate memory
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.

Add `flags` u16 field to the hole in ipfw_table_xentry structure.
Kernel has been guessing address family for supplied record based
on xent length size.
Userland, however, has been getting fixed-size ipfw_table_xentry structures
guessing address family by checking address by IN6_IS_ADDR_V4COMPAT().
Fix this behavior by providing specific IPFW_TCF_INET flag for IPv4 records.

re-links dynamic states to default rule instead of
flushing on rule deletion.
This can be useful while performing ruleset reload
(think about `atomic` reload via changing sets).
Currently it is turned off by default.

This lock gets deleted in sys/netpfil/ipfw/ip_fw2.c:vnet_ipfw_uninit().
Therefore, vnet_ipfw_nat_uninit() *must* be called before vnet_ipfw_uninit(),
but this doesn't always happen, because the VNET_SYSINIT order is the same for both functions.
In sys/net/netpfil/ipfw/ip_fw2.c and sys/net/netpfil/ipfw/ip_fw_nat.c,
IPFW_SI_SUB_FIREWALL == IPFW_NAT_SI_SUB_FIREWALL == SI_SUB_PROTO_IFATTACHDOMAIN
and
IPFW_MODULE_ORDER == IPFW_NAT_MODULE_ORDER
Consequently, if VIMAGE is enabled, and jails are created and destroyed,
the system sometimes crashes, because we are trying to use a deleted lock.
To reproduce the problem:
(1) Take a GENERIC kernel config, and add options for: VIMAGE, WITNESS,
INVARIANTS.
(2) Run this command in a loop:
jail -l -u root -c path=/ name=foo persist vnet && jexec foo ifconfig lo0 127.0.0.1/8 && jail -r foo
(see http://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-current/2010-November/021280.html )
Fix the problem by increasing the value of IPFW_NAT_SI_SUB_FIREWALL,
so that vnet_ipfw_nat_uninit() runs after vnet_ipfw_uninit().
so they can be used in the userspace version of ipfw/dummynet
(normally using netmap for the I/O path).
This is the first of a few commits to ease compiling the
ipfw kernel code in userspace.

net.link.ether, originally it had been at another wrong namespace. It was
incorrectly documented at incorrect manual page arp(8). Since new-ARP commit,
the tunable have been consulted only on route addition, and ignored on route
deletion. Behaviour of a system with tunable turned off is not fully correct,
and has no advantages comparing to normal behavior.

thing done by the dummynet handler is taskqueue_enqueue() call, it doesn't
need extra switch to the clock SWI context.
On idle system this change in half reduces number of active CPU cycles and
wakes up only one CPU from sleep instead of two.
I was going to make this change much earlier as part of calloutng project,
but waited for better solution with skipping idle ticks to be implemented.
Unfortunately with 10.0 release coming it is better get at least this.
* Do per vnet instance cleanup (previously it was only for vnet0 on
module unload, and led to libalias leaks and possible panics due to
stale pointer dereferences).
* Instead of protecting ipfw hooks registering/deregistering by only
vnet0 lock (which does not prevent pointers access from another
vnets), introduce per vnet ipfw_nat_loaded variable. The variable is
set after hooks are registered and unset before they are deregistered.
* Devirtualize ifaddr_event_tag as we run only one event handler for
all vnets.
* It is supposed that ifaddr_change event handler is called in the
interface vnet context, so add an assertion.

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).
