This node is part of an A10-NSP (L2-BSA) development.
Carrier networks tend to stack three or more tags for internal
purposes and therefore hiding the service tags deep inside of the
stack. When decomposing such an access network frame, the processing
order is typically reversed: First distinguish by service, than by
other means.
This new netgragh node allows to bring the relevant VLAN in front (to
the out-most position). This way other netgraph nodes (like ng_vlan)
can operate on this specific type.

WITHOUT_LIBTHR has been broken for a little over five years now, since the
xz 5.2.0 update introduced a hard liblzma dependency on libthr, and building
a useful system without threading support is becoming increasingly more
difficult.
Additionally, in the five plus years that it's been broken more reverse
dependencies have cropped up in libzstd, libsqlite3, and libcrypto (among
others) that make it more and more difficult to reconcile the effort needed
to fix these options.

In order to efficiently serve web traffic on a NUMA
machine, one must avoid as many NUMA domain crossings as
possible. With SO_REUSEPORT_LB, a number of workers can share a
listen socket. However, even if a worker sets affinity to a core
or set of cores on a NUMA domain, it will receive connections
associated with all NUMA domains in the system. This will lead to
cross-domain traffic when the server writes to the socket or
calls sendfile(), and memory is allocated on the server's local
NUMA node, but transmitted on the NUMA node associated with the
TCP connection. Similarly, when the server reads from the socket,
he will likely be reading memory allocated on the NUMA domain
associated with the TCP connection.
This change provides a new socket ioctl, TCP_REUSPORT_LB_NUMA. A
server can now tell the kernel to filter traffic so that only
incoming connections associated with the desired NUMA domain are
given to the server. (Of course, in the case where there are no
servers sharing the listen socket on some domain, then as a
fallback, traffic will be hashed as normal to all servers sharing
the listen socket regardless of domain). This allows a server to
deal only with traffic that is local to its NUMA domain, and
avoids cross-domain traffic in most cases.
This patch, and a corresponding small patch to nginx to use
TCP_REUSPORT_LB_NUMA allows us to serve 190Gb/s of kTLS encrypted
https media content from dual-socket Xeons with only 13% (as
measured by pcm.x) cross domain traffic on the memory controller.

Crypto file descriptors were added in the original OCF import as a way
to provide per-open data (specifically the list of symmetric
sessions). However, this gives a bit of a confusing API where one has
to open /dev/crypto and then invoke an ioctl to obtain a second file
descriptor. This also does not match the API used with /dev/crypto on
other BSDs or with Linux's /dev/crypto driver.
Character devices have gained support for per-open data via cdevpriv
since OCF was imported, so use cdevpriv to simplify the userland API
by permitting ioctls directly on /dev/crypto descriptors.
To provide backwards compatibility, CRIOGET now opens another
/dev/crypto descriptor via kern_openat() rather than dup'ing the
existing file descriptor. This preserves prior semantics in case
CRIOGET is invoked multiple times on a single file descriptor.

I've not removed the Er macro from one of the lists in example.9, however,
because it seems to be doing some special kind of magic. Let's leave it
there for now.
There are two options:
- WITH_INIT_ALL_ZERO: Zero all variables on the stack.
- WITH_INIT_ALL_PATTERN: Initialize variables with well-defined patterns.
The exact pattern are a compiler implementation detail and vary by type.
They are somewhat documented in the LLVM commit message:
https://reviews.llvm.org/rL349442
I've used WITH_INIT_ALL_* to match Microsoft's InitAll feature rather
than naming them after the LLVM specific compiler flags.
In a range of consumer products, options like these are used in
both debug and production builds with debugs builds using patterns
(intended to provoke crashes on use of uninitialized values) and
production using zeros (deemed more likely to lead to harmless
misbehavior or NULL-pointer dereferences).

+ not tested with linux programs to behave as intended
- be more human readable for known options which are not handled
- be more verbose for unhandled socket message flags we know about
- print the jail ID in linux_msg if run in a jail
- add possibility to print debug message about known missing parts only once
- add multiple levels of sysctl linux.debug:
1: print debug messages, tell about unimplemented stuff (only once)
2: like 1, but also print messages about implemented but not tested
stuff (only once)
3+: like 2, but no rate limiting of messages
- increase default linux debug level from 1 to 3
We are a lot more verbose in as we need to be (e.g. some of the IP socket
options which are the same, and share the same memory layout, and are
believed to work). The reason is that we have no good testsuite to test those
linux-bits. The LTP or other test suites like the python one, are not fully
up to the task we need. As such the excessive messages about emulated but not
tested socket options.
IMO any MFC (possible, but most probably not by me) should set the default

Hardware assistance includes checksumming (tx and rx), TSO, and RSS on
the inner traffic in a VXLAN tunnel.
Relnotes: Yes
Sponsored by: Chelsio Communications
This lets a VXLAN pseudo-interface take advantage of hardware checksumming (tx
and rx), TSO, and RSS if the NIC is capable of performing these operations on
inner VXLAN traffic.
A VXLAN interface inherits the capabilities of its vxlandev interface if one is
specified or of the interface that hosts the vxlanlocal address. If other
interfaces will carry traffic for that VXLAN then they must have the same
hardware capabilities.
On transmit, if_vxlan verifies that the outbound interface has the required
capabilities and then translates the CSUM_ flags to their inner equivalents.
This tells the hardware ifnet that it needs to operate on the inner frame and
not the outer VXLAN headers.
An event is generated when a VXLAN ifnet starts. This allows hardware drivers to
configure their devices to expect VXLAN traffic on the specified incoming port.
On receive, the hardware does RSS and checksum verification on the inner frame.
if_vxlan now does a direct netisr dispatch to take full advantage of RSS. It is
not very clear why it didn't do this already.
Future work:
Rx: it should be possible to avoid the first trip up the protocol stack to get
the frame to if_vxlan just so it can decapsulate and requeue for a second trip
up the stack. The hardware NIC driver could directly call an if_vxlan receive
routine for VXLAN traffic instead.
Rx: LRO. depends on what happens with the previous item. There will have to to
be a mechanism to indicate that it's time for if_vxlan to flush its LRO state.
