work by yar, thompsa and myself. The checksum offloading part also involves
work done by Mihail Balikov.
The most important changes:
o Instead of global linked list of all vlan softc use a per-trunk
hash. The size of hash is dynamically adjusted, depending on
number of entries. This changes struct ifnet, replacing counter
of vlans with a pointer to trunk structure. This change is an
improvement for setups with big number of VLANs, several interfaces
and several CPUs. It is a small regression for a setup with a single
VLAN interface.
An alternative to dynamic hash is a per-trunk static array with
4096 entries, which is a compile time option - VLAN_ARRAY. In my
experiments the array is not an improvement, probably because such
a big trunk structure doesn't fit into CPU cache.
o Introduce an UMA zone for VLAN tags. Since drivers depend on it,
the zone is declared in kern_mbuf.c, not in optional vlan(4) driver.
This change is a big improvement for any setup utilizing vlan(4).
o Use rwlock(9) instead of mutex(9) for locking. We are the first
ones to do this! :)
o Some drivers can do hardware VLAN tagging + hardware checksum
offloading. Add an infrastructure for this. Whenever vlan(4) is
attached to a parent or parent configuration is changed, the flags
on vlan(4) interface are updated.

however IPv4-in-IPv4 tunnels are now stable on SMP. Details:
- Add per-softc mutex.
- Hold the mutex on output.
The main problem was the rtentry, placed in softc. It could be
freed by ip_output(). Meanwhile, another thread being in
in_gif_output() can read and write this rtentry.

Vararg functions have a different calling convention than regular
functions on amd64. Casting a varag function to a regular one to
match the function pointer declaration will hide the varargs from
the caller and we will end up with an incorrectly setup stack.
Entirely remove the varargs from these functions and change the
functions to match the declaration of the function pointers.
Remove the now unnecessary casts.

restored when its removed from the bridge.
At the moment we only clear IFCAP_TXCSUM. Since a locally generated packet on
the bridge may be sent out any one or more interfaces it cant be assumed that
every card does hardware csums. Most bridges don't generate a lot of traffic
themselves so turning off offloading won't hurt, bridged packets are
unaffected.

partially supported because 1) no need, 2) avoid expensive m_copydata(9).

- In ifc_name2unit(), disallow leading zeroes in a unit.
Exploit: ifconfig lo01 create
- In ifc_name2unit(), properly handle overflows. Otherwise,
either of two local panic()'s can occur, either because
no interface with such a name could be found after it was
successfully created, or because the code will bogusly
assume that it's a wildcard (unit < 0 due to overflow).
Exploit: ifconfig lo<overflowed_integer> create
- Previous revision made the following sequence trigger
a KASSERT() failure in queue(3):
Exploit: ifconfig lo0 destroy; ifconfig lo0 destroy
This is because IFC_IFLIST_REMOVE() is always called
before ifc->ifc_destroy() has been run, not accounting
for the fact that the latter can fail and leave the
interface operating (like is the case for "lo0").
So we ended up calling LIST_REMOVE() twice. We cannot
defer IFC_IFLIST_REMOVE() until after a call to
ifc->ifc_destroy() because the ifnet may have been
removed and its memory has been freed, so recover from
this by re-inserting the ifnet in the cloned interfaces
list if ifc->ifc_destroy() indicates a failure.
If the packet is rejected from pfil(9) then continue the loop rather than
returning, this means that we can still try to send it out the remaining
interfaces but more importantly the mbuf is freed and refcount decremented on
exit.

- Change iso88025_ifattach() and fddi_ifattach() to accept MAC

softc lists and associated mutex are now unused so these have been removed.
Calling if_clone_detach() will now destroy all the cloned interfaces for the
driver and in most cases is all thats needed to unload.

Having an additional MT_HEADER mbuf type is superfluous and redundant
as nothing depends on it. It only adds a layer of confusion. The
distinction between header mbuf's and data mbuf's is solely done
through the m->m_flags M_PKTHDR flag.
Non-native code is not changed in this commit. For compatibility
MT_HEADER is mapped to MT_DATA.
