messages send by routers when they deny our traffic, this causes
a timeout when trying to connect to TCP ports/services on a remote
host, which is blocked by routers or firewalls.
rfc1122 (Requirements for Internet Hosts) section 3.2.2.1 actually
requi re that we treat such a message for a TCP session, that we
treat it like if we had recieved a RST.
quote begin.
A Destination Unreachable message that is received MUST be
reported to the transport layer. The transport layer SHOULD
use the information appropriately; for example, see Sections
4.1.3.3, 4.2.3.9, and 4.2.4 below. A transport protocol
that has its own mechanism for notifying the sender that a
port is unreachable (e.g., TCP, which sends RST segments)
MUST nevertheless accept an ICMP Port Unreachable for the
same purpose.
quote end.
I've written a small extension that implement this, it also create
a sysctl "net.inet.tcp.icmp_admin_prohib_like_rst" to control if
this new behaviour is activated.
When it's activated (set to 1) we'll treat a ICMP administratively
prohibited message (icmp type 3 code 9, 10 and 13) for a TCP
sessions, as if we recived a TCP RST, but only if the TCP session
is in SYN_SENT state.
The reason for only reacting when in SYN_SENT state, is that this
will solve the problem, and at the same time minimize the risk of
this being abused.
I suggest that we enable this new behaviour by default, but it
would be a change of current behaviour, so if people prefer to
leave it disabled by default, at least for now, this would be ok
for me, the attached diff actually have the sysctl set to 0 by
default.

1. ICMP ECHO and TSTAMP replies are now rate limited.
2. RSTs generated due to packets sent to open and unopen ports
are now limited by seperate counters.
3. Each rate limiting queue now has its own description, as
follows:
Limiting icmp unreach response from 439 to 200 packets per second
Limiting closed port RST response from 283 to 200 packets per second
Limiting open port RST response from 18724 to 200 packets per second
Limiting icmp ping response from 211 to 200 packets per second
Limiting icmp tstamp response from 394 to 200 packets per second

before adding/removing packets from the queue. Also, the if_obytes and
if_omcasts fields should only be manipulated under protection of the mutex.
IF_ENQUEUE, IF_PREPEND, and IF_DEQUEUE perform all necessary locking on
the queue. An IF_LOCK macro is provided, as well as the old (mutex-less)
versions of the macros in the form _IF_ENQUEUE, _IF_QFULL, for code which
needs them, but their use is discouraged.
Two new macros are introduced: IF_DRAIN() to drain a queue, and IF_HANDOFF,
which takes care of locking/enqueue, and also statistics updating/start
if necessary.
* Some dummynet code incorrectly handled a malloc()-allocated pseudo-mbuf
header structure, called "pkt," and could consequently pollute the mbuf
free list if it was ever passed to m_freem(). The fix involved passing not
pkt, but essentially pkt->m_next (which is a real mbuf) to the mbuf
utility routines.
* Also, for dummynet, in bdg_forward(), made the code copy the ethernet header
back into the mbuf (prepended) because the dummynet code that follows expects
it to be there but it is, unfortunately for dummynet, passed to bdg_forward
as a seperate argument.

Also, fix a small set of "avail." If we're setting `avail,' we shouldn't
be re-checking whether m_flags is M_EXT, because we know that it is, as if
it wasn't, we would have already returned several lines above.

only be checked if the system is currently performing New Reno style
fast recovery. However, this value was being checked regardless of the
NR state, with the end result being that the congestion window was never
opened.
Change the logic to check t_dupack instead; the only code path that
allows it to be nonzero at this point is NewReno, so if it is nonzero,
we are in fast recovery mode and should not touch the congestion window.

PPTP links are no longer dropped by simple (and inappropriate in this
case) "inactivity timeout" procedure, only when requested through the
control connection.
It is now possible to have multiple PPTP servers running behind NAT.
