1. separating L2 tables (ARP, NDP) from the L3 routing tables
2. removing as much locking dependencies among these layers as
possible to allow for some parallelism in the search operations
3. simplify the logic in the routing code,
The most notable end result is the obsolescent of the route
cloning (RTF_CLONING) concept, which translated into code reduction
in both IPv4 ARP and IPv6 NDP related modules, and size reduction in
struct rtentry{}. The change in design obsoletes the semantics of
RTF_CLONING, RTF_WASCLONE and RTF_LLINFO routing flags. The userland
applications such as "arp" and "ndp" have been modified to reflect
those changes. The output from "netstat -r" shows only the routing
entries.
Quite a few developers have contributed to this project in the
past: Glebius Smirnoff, Luigi Rizzo, Alessandro Cerri, and
Andre Oppermann. And most recently:
- Kip Macy revised the locking code completely, thus completing
the last piece of the puzzle, Kip has also been conducting
active functional testing
- Sam Leffler has helped me improving/refactoring the code, and
provided valuable reviews
- Julian Elischer setup the perforce tree for me and has helped
me maintaining that branch before the svn conversion
to keep for 7-STABLE when MFCing in_pcbladdr() to not change the
behaviour there.
With this a destination route via a loopback interface is treated as
a valid and reachable thing for IPv4 source address selection, even
though nothing of that network is ever directly reachable, but it is
more like a blackhole route.
With this the source address will be selected and IPsec can grab the
packets before we would discard them at a later point, encapsulate them
and send them out from a different tunnel endpoint IP.

container structures, depending on VIMAGE_GLOBALS compile time option.
Make VIMAGE_GLOBALS a new compile-time option, which by default will not
be defined, resulting in instatiations of global variables selected for
V_irtualization (enclosed in #ifdef VIMAGE_GLOBALS blocks) to be
effectively compiled out. Instantiate new global container structures
to hold V_irtualized variables: vnet_net_0, vnet_inet_0, vnet_inet6_0,
vnet_ipsec_0, vnet_netgraph_0, and vnet_gif_0.
Update the VSYM() macro so that depending on VIMAGE_GLOBALS the V_
macros resolve either to the original globals, or to fields inside
container structures, i.e. effectively
#ifdef VIMAGE_GLOBALS
#define V_rt_tables rt_tables
#else
#define V_rt_tables vnet_net_0._rt_tables
#endif
Update SYSCTL_V_*() macros to operate either on globals or on fields
inside container structs.
Extend the internal kldsym() lookups with the ability to resolve
selected fields inside the virtualization container structs. This
applies only to the fields which are explicitly registered for kldsym()
visibility via VNET_MOD_DECLARE() and vnet_mod_register(), currently
this is done only in sys/net/if.c.
Fix a few broken instances of MODULE_GLOBAL() macro use in SCTP code,
and modify the MODULE_GLOBAL() macro to resolve to V_ macros, which in
turn result in proper code being generated depending on VIMAGE_GLOBALS.
De-virtualize local static variables in sys/contrib/pf/net/pf_subr.c
which were prematurely V_irtualized by automated V_ prepending scripts
during earlier merging steps. PF virtualization will be done
separately, most probably after next PF import.
Convert a few variable initializations at instantiation to
initialization in init functions, most notably in ipfw. Also convert
TUNABLE_INT() initializers for V_ variables to TUNABLE_FETCH_INT() in

to read-locking in the TCP input path, allowing greater TCP
input parallelism where multiple ithreads or ithread and netisr
are able to run in parallel. Previously, most TCP input paths
held a write lock on the global tcbinfo lock, effectively
serializing TCP input.
Before looking up the connection, acquire a write lock if a
potentially state-changing flag is set on the TCP segment header
(FIN, RST, SYN), and otherwise a read lock. We may later have
to upgrade to a write lock in certain cases (ACKs received by the
syncache or during TIMEWAIT) in order to support global state
transitions, but this is never required for steady-state packets.
Upgrading from a write lock to a read lock must be done as a
trylock operation to avoid deadlocks, and actually violates the
lock order as the tcbinfo lock preceeds the inpcb lock held at
the time of upgrade. If the trylock fails, we bump the refcount
on the inpcb, drop both locks, and re-acquire in-order. If
another thread has freed the connection while the locks are
dropped, we free the inpcb and repeat the lookup (this should
hardly ever or never happen in practice).
For now, maintain a number of new counters measuring how many
times various cases execute, and in particular whether various
optimistic assumptions about when read locks can be used, whether
upgrades are done using the fast path, and whether connections
close in practice in the above-described race, actually occur.

incremented using in_pcbref(), and decremented using in_pcbfree()
or inpcbrele(). Protocols using only current in_pcballoc() and
in_pcbfree() calls will see the same semantics, but it is now
possible for TCP to call in_pcbref() and in_pcbrele() to prevent
an inpcb from being freed when both tcbinfo and per-inpcb locks
are released. This makes it possible to safely transition from
holding only the inpcb lock to both tcbinfo and inpcb lock
without re-looking up a connection in the input path, timer
path, etc.
Notice that in_pcbrele() does not unlock the connection after
decrementing the refcount, if the connection remains, so that
the caller can continue to use it; in_pcbrele() returns a flag
indicating whether or not the inpcb pointer is still valid, and
in_pcbfee() is now a simple wrapper around in_pcbrele().

Bring in updated jail support from bz_jail branch.
This enhances the current jail implementation to permit multiple
addresses per jail. In addtion to IPv4, IPv6 is supported as well.
Due to updated checks it is even possible to have jails without
an IP address at all, which basically gives one a chroot with
restricted process view, no networking,..
SCTP support was updated and supports IPv6 in jails as well.
Cpuset support permits jails to be bound to specific processor
sets after creation.
Jails can have an unrestricted (no duplicate protection, etc.) name
in addition to the hostname. The jail name cannot be changed from
within a jail and is considered to be used for management purposes
or as audit-token in the future.
DDB 'show jails' command was added to aid debugging.
Proper compat support permits 32bit jail binaries to be used on 64bit
systems to manage jails. Also backward compatibility was preserved where
possible: for jail v1 syscalls, as well as with user space management
utilities.
Both jail as well as prison version were updated for the new features.
A gap was intentionally left as the intermediate versions had been
used by various patches floating around the last years.
Bump __FreeBSD_version for the afore mentioned and in kernel changes.

Essentialy, this change should have zero functional impact. In the next

Move the TSO logic back to tcp_mss() and out of tcp_mss_update().
We tried to avoid that initially but if were are called from
tcp_output() with EMSGSIZE, we cleared the TSO flag on the tcpcb
there, called into tcp_mtudisc() and tcp_mss_update() which
then would reenable TSO on the tcpcb based on TSO capabilities
of the interface as learnt in tcp_maxmtu/6().
So if TSO was enabled on the (possibly new) outgoing interface
it was turned back on, which lead to an endless loop between
tcp_output() and tcp_mtudisc() until we overflew the stack.

In case we return early and got a metricptr to pass the hostcache
info back to the caller we need to initialize the data to a defined
state (zero it) as tcp_hc_get() would do if there was no hit.
Without that the caller would check on random stack garbage which
could lead to undefined results.

a) Need for EEOR mode to take the min of the socket buffer size and the
add more threshold, otherwise if you are so silly as to set a send
buf size less than the add-more you could block forever in eeor mode.
b) We were incorrectly using the sysctl vs the calculated value. This
causes us to block forever if the addmore theshold is larger than
then the socket buffer size.
- If we send EXACTLY the size left in the send buffer
and then send again, we end up with exactly 0 bytes and
don't hit the pre-block code to wait for more space.
- If we fall into the loop with our max_len == 0 (the bug
above) we then call in to copy out the data, setup the length
of the waiting to transmit data to 0 and call the mbuf copy routine
which 0 indicates copy all the data to the mbuf chain.. which it
does. This then leaves a "stuck" message on the stream queue with
its size exactly 0 bytes but all the data there and thus nothing
left in the uio structure. We then reach a stuck forever state
never being able to send data.
