allow for connection load balancing across interfaces. Currently
the address alias handling method is colliding with the ECMP code.
For example, when two interfaces are configured on the same prefix,
only one prefix route is installed. So connection load balancing
among the available interfaces is not possible.
The other advantage of ECMP is for failover. The issue with the
current code, is that the interface link-state is not reflected
in the route entry. For example, if there are two interfaces on
the same prefix, the cable on one interface is unplugged, new and
existing connections should switch over to the other interface.
This is not done today and packets go into a black hole.

and tested over the past two months in the ipfw3-head branch. This
also happens to be the same code available in the Linux and Windows
ports of ipfw and dummynet.
The major enhancement is a completely restructured version of
dummynet, with support for different packet scheduling algorithms
(loadable at runtime), faster queue/pipe lookup, and a much cleaner
internal architecture and kernel/userland ABI which simplifies
future extensions.
In addition to the existing schedulers (FIFO and WF2Q+), we include
a Deficit Round Robin (DRR or RR for brevity) scheduler, and a new,
very fast version of WF2Q+ called QFQ.
Some test code is also present (in sys/netinet/ipfw/test) that
lets you build and test schedulers in userland.
Also, we have added a compatibility layer that understands requests
from the RELENG_7 and RELENG_8 versions of the /sbin/ipfw binaries,
and replies correctly (at least, it does its best; sometimes you
just cannot tell who sent the request and how to answer).
The compatibility layer should make it possible to MFC this code in a
relatively short time.
Some minor glitches (e.g. handling of ipfw set enable/disable,
and a workaround for a bug in RELENG_7's /sbin/ipfw) will be
fixed with separate commits.
CREDITS:
This work has been partly supported by the ONELAB2 project, and
mostly developed by Riccardo Panicucci and myself.
The code for the qfq scheduler is mostly from Fabio Checconi,
and Marta Carbone and Francesco Magno have helped with testing,

Enhanced process coredump routines.
This brings in the following features:
1) Limit number of cores per process via the %I coredump formatter.
Example:
if corefilename is set to %N.%I.core AND num_cores = 3, then
if a process "rpd" cores, then the corefile will be named
"rpd.0.core", however if it cores again, then the kernel will
generate "rpd.1.core" until we hit the limit of "num_cores".
this is useful to get several corefiles, but also prevent filling
the machine with corefiles.
2) Encode machine hostname in core dump name via %H.
3) Compress coredumps, useful for embedded platforms with limited space.
A sysctl kern.compress_user_cores is made available if turned on.
To enable compressed coredumps, the following config options need to be set:
options COMPRESS_USER_CORES
device zlib # brings in the zlib requirements.
device gzio # brings in the kernel vnode gzip output module.
4) Eventhandlers are fired to indicate coredumps in progress.
5) The imgact sv_coredump routine has grown a flag to pass in more
state, currently this is used only for passing a flag down to compress
the coredump or not.
Note that the gzio facility can be used for generic output of gzip'd
streams via vnodes.

and remove all O(N) sequences from kernel critical sections in ipfw.
In detail:
1. introduce a IPFW_UH_LOCK to arbitrate requests from
the upper half of the kernel. Some things, such as 'ipfw show',
can be done holding this lock in read mode, whereas insert and
delete require IPFW_UH_WLOCK.
2. introduce a mapping structure to keep rules together. This replaces
the 'next' chain currently used in ipfw rules. At the moment
the map is a simple array (sorted by rule number and then rule_id),
so we can find a rule quickly instead of having to scan the list.
This reduces many expensive lookups from O(N) to O(log N).
3. when an expensive operation (such as insert or delete) is done
by userland, we grab IPFW_UH_WLOCK, create a new copy of the map
without blocking the bottom half of the kernel, then acquire
IPFW_WLOCK and quickly update pointers to the map and related info.
After dropping IPFW_LOCK we can then continue the cleanup protected
by IPFW_UH_LOCK. So userland still costs O(N) but the kernel side
is only blocked for O(1).
4. do not pass pointers to rules through dummynet, netgraph, divert etc,
but rather pass a <slot, chain_id, rulenum, rule_id> tuple.
We validate the slot index (in the array of #2) with chain_id,
and if successful do a O(1) dereference; otherwise, we can find
the rule in O(log N) through <rulenum, rule_id>
All the above does not change the userland/kernel ABI, though there
are some disgusting casts between pointers and uint32_t
Operation costs now are as follows:
Function Old Now Planned
-------------------------------------------------------------------
+ skipto X, non cached O(N) O(log N)

use the proper interface for address scope/zone validation.
- The loopback address is not reachable. The root cause is
the same as the above.
- Empty nd6 entries are created for the IPv6 loopback addresses
only for validation reason. Doing so will eliminate as much
of the special case (loopback addresses) handling code
as possible, however, these empty nd6 entries should not
be returned to the userland applications such as the
"ndp" command.
Since both of the above issues contain common files, these
files are committed together.

and sysuninit handlers.
Previously, sx_vnet, which is a lock designated for protecting
the vnet list, was (ab)used for protecting vnet sysinit / sysuninit
handler lists as well. Holding exclusively the sx_vnet lock while
invoking sysinit and / or sysuninit handlers turned out to be
problematic, since some of the handlers may attempt to wake up
another thread and wait for it to walk over the vnet list, hence
acquire a shared lock on sx_vnet, which in turn leads to a deadlock.
Protecting vnet sysinit / sysuninit lists with a separate lock
mitigates this issue, which was first observed with
flowtable_flush() / flowtable_cleaner() in sys/net/flowtable.c.

information for interface of IFF_POINTOPOINT or IFF_LOOPBACK type.
Since the L2 information (rt_lle) is invalid for these interface
types, accidental caching attempt will trigger panic when the invalid
rt_lle reference is accessed.
When installing a new route, or when updating an existing route, the
user supplied gateway address may be an interface address (this is
particularly true for point-to-point interface related modules such
as ppp, if_tun, if_gif). Currently the routing command handler always
set the RTF_GATEWAY flag if the gateway address is given as part of the
command paramters. Therefore the gateway address must be verified against
interface addresses or else the route would be treated as an indirect
route, thus making that route unusable.

several critical bugs, including race conditions and lock order issues:
Replace the single rwlock, ifnet_lock, with two locks, an rwlock and an
sxlock. Either can be held to stablize the lists and indexes, but both
are required to write. This allows the list to be held stable in both
network interrupt contexts and sleepable user threads across sleeping
memory allocations or device driver interactions. As before, writes to
the interface list must occur from sleepable contexts.

all pertinent statatistics for the subsystem. These structures are
sometimes "borrowed" by kernel modules that require a place to store
statistics for similar events.
Add KPI accessor functions for statistics structures referenced by kernel
modules so that they no longer encode certain specifics of how the data
structures are named and stored. This change is intended to make it
easier to move to per-CPU network stats following 8.0-RELEASE.
The following modules are affected by this change:
if_bridge
if_cxgb
if_gif
ip_mroute
ipdivert

In practice, most of these statistics consumers should, in fact, maintain
their own statistics data structures rather than borrowing structures
from the base network stack. However, that change is too agressive for
this point in the release cycle.

L2 information. For an indirect route the cached L2 entry contains the
MAC address of the gateway. Typically the default route is used to
transmit multicast packets when explicit multicast routes are not
available. The ether_output() function bypasses L2 resolution function
if it verifies the L2 cache is valid, because the cached L2 address
(a unicast MAC address) is copied into the packets as the destination
MAC address. This validation, however, does not apply to broadcast and
multicast packets because the destination MAC address is mapped
according to a standard method instead.
