Debugnet is a simplistic and specialized panic- or debug-time reliable datagram transport. It can drive a single connection at a time and is currently unidirectional (debug/panic machine transmit to remote server only). It is mostly a verbatim code lift from netdump(4). Netdump(4) remains the only consumer (until the rest of this patch series lands). The INET-specific logic has been extracted somewhat more thoroughly than previously in netdump(4), into debugnet_inet.c. UDP-layer logic and up, as much as possible as is protocol-independent, remains in debugnet.c. The separation is not perfect and future improvement is welcome. Supporting INET6 is a long-term goal. Much of the diff is "gratuitous" renaming from 'netdump_' or 'nd_' to 'debugnet_' or 'dn_' -- sorry. I thought keeping the netdump name on the generic module would be more confusing than the refactoring. The only functional change here is the mbuf allocation / tracking. Instead of initiating solely on netdump-configured interface(s) at dumpon(8) configuration time, we watch for any debugnet-enabled NIC for link activation and query it for mbuf parameters at that time. If they exceed the existing high-water mark allocation, we re-allocate and track the new high-water mark. Otherwise, we leave the pre-panic mbuf allocation alone. In a future patch in this series, this will allow initiating netdump from panic ddb(4) without pre-panic configuration. No other functional change intended.

FreeBSD is an operating system used to power modern servers, desktops, and embedded platforms. A large community has continually developed it for more than thirty years. Its advanced networking, security, and storage features have made FreeBSD the platform of choice for many of the busiest web sites and most pervasive embedded networking and storage devices.
