The INP_DROPPED check replaces the current NULL checks; the INP_TIMEWAIT
checks appear to have always been required, but not been there, which
is/was a bug. This avoids unconditionally casting of in_ppcb to a tcpcb,
when it may be a twtcb, which may have resulted in obscure ICMP-related
panics in earlier releases.

Don't assign tp to the results to intotcpcb() during variable declation

assumes we've pulled out the inpcb, which hasn't happened at this

the socket was closed while the connection was alive, it would be

socket can have a tcp connection that has entered time wait
attached to it, in the event that shutdown() is called on the
socket and the FINs properly exchange before close(). In this
case we don't detach or free the inpcb, just leave the tcptw
detached and freed, but we must release the inpcb lock (which we
didn't previously).

pru_abort(), pru_detach(), and in_pcbdetach():
- Universally support and enforce the invariant that so_pcb is
never NULL, converting dozens of unnecessary NULL checks into
assertions, and eliminating dozens of unnecessary error handling
cases in protocol code.
- In some cases, eliminate unnecessary pcbinfo locking, as it is no
longer required to ensure so_pcb != NULL. For example, the receive
code no longer requires the pcbinfo lock, and the send code only
requires it if building a new connection on an otherwise unconnected
socket triggered via sendto() with an address. This should
significnatly reduce tcbinfo lock contention in the receive and send
cases.
- In order to support the invariant that so_pcb != NULL, it is now
necessary for the TCP code to not discard the tcpcb any time a
connection is dropped, but instead leave the tcpcb until the socket
is shutdown. This case is handled by setting INP_DROPPED, to
substitute for using a NULL so_pcb to indicate that the connection
has been dropped. This requires the inpcb lock, but not the pcbinfo
lock.
- Unlike all other protocols in the tree, TCP may need to retain access
to the socket after the file descriptor has been closed. Set
SS_PROTOREF in tcp_detach() in order to prevent the socket from being
freed, and add a flag, INP_SOCKREF, so that the TCP code knows whether
or not it needs to free the socket when the connection finally does
close. The typical case where this occurs is if close() is called on
a TCP socket before all sent data in the send socket buffer has been
transmitted or acknowledged. If INP_SOCKREF is found when the
connection is dropped, we release the inpcb, tcpcb, and socket instead
of flagging INP_DROPPED.
- Abort and detach protocol switch methods no longer return failures,
nor attempt to free sockets, as the socket layer does this.
- Annotate the existence of a long-standing race in the TCP timer code,
in which timers are stopped but not drained when the socket is freed,
as waiting for drain may lead to deadlocks, or have to occur in a
context where waiting is not permitted. This race has been handled
by testing to see if the tcpcb pointer in the inpcb is NULL (and vice
versa), which is not normally permitted, but may be true of a inpcb
and tcpcb have been freed. Add a counter to test how often this race
has actually occurred, and a large comment for each instance where
we compare potentially freed memory with NULL. This will have to be
fixed in the near future, but requires is to further address how to
handle the timer shutdown shutdown issue.
- Several TCP calls no longer potentially free the passed inpcb/tcpcb,
so no longer need to return a pointer to indicate whether the argument
passed in is still valid.
- Un-macroize debugging and locking setup for various protocol switch
methods for TCP, as it lead to more obscurity, and as locking becomes
more customized to the methods, offers less benefit.
- Assert copyright on tcp_usrreq.c due to significant modifications that
have been made as part of this work.
These changes significantly modify the memory management and connection
logic of our TCP implementation, and are (as such) High Risk Changes,

Unlike the previous in_pcbdetach(), neither of these functions will

for managing in_pcb memory. Mirror these changes into in6_pcbdetach()

rather than an error. Detaches do not "fail", they other occur or
the protocol flags SS_PROTOREF to take ownership of the socket.
soclose() no longer looks at so_pcb to see if it's NULL, relying
entirely on the protocol to decide whether it's time to free the
socket or not using SS_PROTOREF. so_pcb is now entirely owned and
managed by the protocol code. Likewise, no longer test so_pcb in
other socket functions, such as soreceive(), which have no business
digging into protocol internals.
Protocol detach routines no longer try to free the socket on detach,
this is performed in the socket code if the protocol permits it.
In rts_detach(), no longer test for rp != NULL in detach, and
likewise in other protocols that don't permit a NULL so_pcb, reduce
the incidence of testing for it during detach.

reason, seems to be where new flags are getting defined:
INP_DROPPED - The protocol has terminated this connection and the socket
is not reusable: when the socket code enters the protocol,
an error is immediately returned. This will substitute for
NULLing the so_pcb socket field, helping to implement the
invariant that all valid sockets have valid pcb's in TCP.
INP_SOCKREF - The protocol has become the owner of the socket reference,
and will need to free it when freeing the pcb, which will
be used when a TCP socket is closed but still has queued
data.

- Stops callouts.
- Decrements carp_suppress_preempt, if needed.
- Downs interface and sets CARP state to INIT.
- Calls carp_multicast_cleanup().
- Detaches softc from carp_if and if we are the last frees
the carp_if.
o Use new carpdetach() in carp_clone_destroy().
o In carp_ifdetach() acquire the carp_if lock and cleanup all

o In carp_setrun() exit if the softc doesn't have a valid pointer

To fix this, we decided not to send packets in transmit_event(),

after the lock is dropped, if there is something in the queue
we run dummynet_send() to process the queue.

filtering mechanisms to use the new rwlock(9) locking API:
- Drop the variables stored in the phil_head structure which were specific to
conditions and the home rolled read/write locking mechanism.
- Drop some includes which were used for condition variables
- Drop the inline functions, and convert them to macros. Also, move these
macros into pfil.h
- Move pfil list locking macros intp phil.h as well
- Rename ph_busy_count to ph_nhooks. This variable will represent the number
of IN/OUT hooks registered with the pfil head structure
- Define PFIL_HOOKED macro which evaluates to true if there are any
hooks to be ran by pfil_run_hooks
- In the IP/IP6 stacks, change the ph_busy_count comparison to use the new
PFIL_HOOKED macro.
- Drop optimization in pfil_run_hooks which checks to see if there are any
hooks to be ran, and returns if not. This check is already performed by the
IP stacks when they call:
if (!PFIL_HOOKED(ph))
goto skip_hooks;
- Drop in assertion which makes sure that the number of hooks never drops
below 0 for good measure. This in theory should never happen, and if it
does than there are problems somewhere
- Drop special logic around PFIL_WAITOK because rw_wlock(9) does not sleep
- Drop variables which support home rolled read/write locking mechanism from
the IPFW firewall chain structure.
- Swap out the read/write firewall chain lock internal to use the rwlock(9)
API instead of our home rolled version
- Convert the inlined functions to macros
