r344504 added an extra ARP_LOG() call in case of an if_output() failure.
It turns out IPv4 can be noisy. In order to not spam the console by default:
(a) add a counter for these events so people can keep better track of how
often it happens, and
(b) add a sysctl to select the default ARP_LOG log level and set it to
INFO avoiding the one (the new) DEBUG level by default.
Claim a spare (1st one after 10 years since the stats were added) in order
to not break netstat from FreeBSD 12->13 updates in the future.

Replace size_t members with ksize_t (uint64_t) and pointer members
(never used as pointers in userspace, but instead as unique
idenitifiers) with kvaddr_t (uint64_t). This makes the structs
identical between 32-bit and 64-bit ABIs.
On 64-bit bit systems, the ABI is maintained. On 32-bit systems,
this is an ABI breaking change. The ABI of most of these structs
was previously broken in r315662. This also imposes a small API
change on userspace consumers who must handle kernel pointers
becoming virtual addresses.

The TCP Blackbox Recorder allows you to capture events on a TCP connection
in a ring buffer. It stores metadata with the event. It optionally stores
the TCP header associated with an event (if the event is associated with a
packet) and also optionally stores information on the sockets.
It supports setting a log ID on a TCP connection and using this to correlate
multiple connections that share a common log ID.
You can log connections in different modes. If you are doing a coordinated
test with a particular connection, you may tell the system to put it in
mode 4 (continuous dump). Or, if you just want to monitor for errors, you
can put it in mode 1 (ring buffer) and dump all the ring buffers associated
with the connection ID when we receive an error signal for that connection
ID. You can set a default mode that will be applied to a particular ratio
of incoming connections. You can also manually set a mode using a socket
option.
This commit includes only basic probes. rrs@ has added quite an abundance
of probes in his TCP development work. He plans to commit those soon.
There are user-space programs which we plan to commit as ports. These read
the data from the log device and output pcapng files, and then let you
analyze the data (and metadata) in the pcapng files.

Violators may define _WANT_SOCKET and _WANT_UNPCB respectively and
are not guaranteed for stability of the structures. The violators
list is the the usual one: libprocstat(3) and netstat(1) internally
and lsof in ports.
In struct xunpcb remove the inclusion of kernel structure and add
a bunch of spare fields. The xsocket already has socket not included,
but add there spares as well. Embed xsockbuf into xsocket.
Sort declarations in sys/socketvar.h to separate kernel only from
userland available ones.
PR: 221820 (exp-run)
o Separate fields of struct socket that belong to listening from
fields that belong to normal dataflow, and unionize them. This
shrinks the structure a bit.
- Take out selinfo's from the socket buffers into the socket. The
first reason is to support braindamaged scenario when a socket is
added to kevent(2) and then listen(2) is cast on it. The second
reason is that there is future plan to make socket buffers pluggable,
so that for a dataflow socket a socket buffer can be changed, and
in this case we also want to keep same selinfos through the lifetime
of a socket.
- Remove struct struct so_accf. Since now listening stuff no longer
affects struct socket size, just move its fields into listening part
of the union.
- Provide sol_upcall field and enforce that so_upcall_set() may be called
only on a dataflow socket, which has buffers, and for listening sockets
provide solisten_upcall_set().
o Remove ACCEPT_LOCK() global.
- Add a mutex to socket, to be used instead of socket buffer lock to lock
fields of struct socket that don't belong to a socket buffer.
- Allow to acquire two socket locks, but the first one must belong to a
listening socket.
- Make soref()/sorele() to use atomic(9). This allows in some situations
to do soref() without owning socket lock. There is place for improvement
here, it is possible to make sorele() also to lock optionally.
- Most protocols aren't touched by this change, except UNIX local sockets.
See below for more information.
o Reduce copy-and-paste in kernel modules that accept connections from
listening sockets: provide function solisten_dequeue(), and use it in
the following modules: ctl(4), iscsi(4), ng_btsocket(4), ng_ksocket(4),
infiniband, rpc.
o UNIX local sockets.
- Removal of ACCEPT_LOCK() global uncovered several races in the UNIX
local sockets. Most races exist around spawning a new socket, when we
are connecting to a local listening socket. To cover them, we need to
hold locks on both PCBs when spawning a third one. This means holding
them across sonewconn(). This creates a LOR between pcb locks and
unp_list_lock.
- To fix the new LOR, abandon the global unp_list_lock in favor of global
unp_link_lock. Indeed, separating these two locks didn't provide us any
extra parralelism in the UNIX sockets.
- Now call into uipc_attach() may happen with unp_link_lock hold if, we
are accepting, or without unp_link_lock in case if we are just creating
a socket.
- Another problem in UNIX sockets is that uipc_close() basicly did nothing
for a listening socket. The vnode remained opened for connections. This
is fixed by removing vnode in uipc_close(). Maybe the right way would be
to do it for all sockets (not only listening), simply move the vnode
teardown from uipc_detach() to uipc_close()?

This is a painful change, but it is needed. On the one hand, we avoid
modifying them, and this slows down some ideas, on the other hand we still
eventually modify them and tools like netstat(1) never work on next version of
FreeBSD. We maintain a ton of spares in them, and we already got some ifdef
hell at the end of tcpcb.
Details:
- Hide struct inpcb, struct tcpcb under _KERNEL || _WANT_FOO.
- Make struct xinpcb, struct xtcpcb pure API structures, not including
kernel structures inpcb and tcpcb inside. Export into these structures
the fields from inpcb and tcpcb that are known to be used, and put there
a ton of spare space.
- Make kernel and userland utilities compilable after these changes.

Small summary
-------------
o Almost all IPsec releated code was moved into sys/netipsec.
o New kernel modules added: ipsec.ko and tcpmd5.ko. New kernel
option IPSEC_SUPPORT added. It enables support for loading
and unloading of ipsec.ko and tcpmd5.ko kernel modules.
o IPSEC_NAT_T option was removed. Now NAT-T support is enabled by
default. The UDP_ENCAP_ESPINUDP_NON_IKE encapsulation type
support was removed. Added TCP/UDP checksum handling for
inbound packets that were decapsulated by transport mode SAs.
setkey(8) modified to show run-time NAT-T configuration of SA.
o New network pseudo interface if_ipsec(4) added. For now it is
build as part of ipsec.ko module (or with IPSEC kernel).
It implements IPsec virtual tunnels to create route-based VPNs.
o The network stack now invokes IPsec functions using special
methods. The only one header file <netipsec/ipsec_support.h>
should be included to declare all the needed things to work
with IPsec.
o All IPsec protocols handlers (ESP/AH/IPCOMP protosw) were removed.
Now these protocols are handled directly via IPsec methods.
o TCP_SIGNATURE support was reworked to be more close to RFC.
o PF_KEY SADB was reworked:
- now all security associations stored in the single SPI namespace,
and all SAs MUST have unique SPI.
- several hash tables added to speed up lookups in SADB.
- SADB now uses rmlock to protect access, and concurrent threads
can do SA lookups in the same time.
- many PF_KEY message handlers were reworked to reflect changes
in SADB.
- SADB_UPDATE message was extended to support new PF_KEY headers:
SADB_X_EXT_NEW_ADDRESS_SRC and SADB_X_EXT_NEW_ADDRESS_DST. They
can be used by IKE daemon to change SA addresses.
o ipsecrequest and secpolicy structures were cardinally changed to
avoid locking protection for ipsecrequest. Now we support
only limited number (4) of bundled SAs, but they are supported
for both INET and INET6.
o INPCB security policy cache was introduced. Each PCB now caches
used security policies to avoid SP lookup for each packet.
o For inbound security policies added the mode, when the kernel does
check for full history of applied IPsec transforms.
o References counting rules for security policies and security
associations were changed. The proper SA locking added into xform
code.
o xform code was also changed. Now it is possible to unregister xforms.
tdb_xxx structures were changed and renamed to reflect changes in
SADB/SPDB, and changed rules for locking and refcounting.

o Introduce a notion of "not ready" mbufs in socket buffers. These
mbufs are now being populated by some I/O in background and are
referenced outside. This forces following implications:
- An mbuf which is "not ready" can't be taken out of the buffer.
- An mbuf that is behind a "not ready" in the queue neither.
- If sockbet buffer is flushed, then "not ready" mbufs shouln't be
freed.
o In struct sockbuf the sb_cc field is split into sb_ccc and sb_acc.
The sb_ccc stands for ""claimed character count", or "committed
character count". And the sb_acc is "available character count".
Consumers of socket buffer API shouldn't already access them directly,
but use sbused() and sbavail() respectively.
o Not ready mbufs are marked with M_NOTREADY, and ready but blocked ones
with M_BLOCKED.
o New field sb_fnrdy points to the first not ready mbuf, to avoid linear
search.
o New function sbready() is provided to activate certain amount of mbufs
in a socket buffer.
A special note on SCTP:
SCTP has its own sockbufs. Unfortunately, FreeBSD stack doesn't yet
allow protocol specific sockbufs. Thus, SCTP does some hacks to make
itself compatible with FreeBSD: it manages sockbufs on its own, but keeps
sb_cc updated to inform the stack of amount of data in them. The new
notion of "not ready" data isn't supported by SCTP. Instead, only a
mechanical substitute is done: s/sb_cc/sb_ccc/.
A proper solution would be to take away struct sockbuf from struct
socket and allow protocols to implement their own socket buffers, like
SCTP already does. This was discussed with rrs@.
