until the collection fires. The thought is that more work for the
collector could arise in the near time, allowing to clean more and not
spend too much CPU on repeated collection when there is no garbage.
Currently the collection task is fired immediately upon unix domain
socket close if there are any rights in flight, which caused excessive
CPU usage and too long blocking of the threads waiting for
unp_list_lock and unp_link_rwlock in write mode.
Robert noted that it would be nice if we could find some heuristic by
which we decide whether to run GC a bit more quickly. E.g., if the
number of UNIX domain sockets is close to its resource limit, but not

The operations are necessary to implement proper unix socket handling
on layered file systems like nullfs(5).
This change fixes the long standing issue with nullfs(5) being in that
unix sockets did not work between lower and upper layers: if we bound
to a socket on the lower layer we could connect only to the lower
path; if we bound to the upper layer we could connect only to the
upper path. The new behavior is one can connect to both the lower and
the upper paths regardless what layer path one binds to.

Sendfile(2) may send more bytes then currently allowed by the
hiwatermark of the socket, e.g. because the so_snd sockbuf lock is
dropped after sbspace() call in the kern_sendfile() loop. In this case,
recalculated hiwatermark will overflow. Since lowatermark is renewed
as half of the hiwatermark by sendfile code, and both are unsigned,
the send buffer never reaches the free space requested by lowatermark,

VNET socket push back:
try to minimize the number of places where we have to switch vnets

While this reduces the number of vnet recursion in some places like
NFS, POSIX local sockets and some netgraph, .. recursions are
impossible to fix.

collect phases. The unp_discard() function executes
unp_externalize_fp(), which might make the socket eligible for gc-ing,
and then, later, taskqueue will close the socket. Since unp_gc()
dropped the list lock to do the malloc, close might happen after the
mark step but before the collection step, causing collection to not
find the socket and miss one array element.
I believe that the race was there before r216158, but the stated
revision made the window much wider by postponing the close to
taskqueue sometimes.
Only process as much array elements as we find the sockets during
second phase of gc [1]. Take linkage lock and recheck the eligibility
of the socket for gc, as well as call fhold() under the linkage lock.

the rights ... Kernel may overflow the stack on attempt to close such
socket.
Only close the rights file in the context of the current close if the
file is not unix domain socket. Otherwise, postpone the work to
taskqueue, preventing unlimited recursion.
The pass of the unix domain sockets over the SCM_RIGHTS message
control is not widely used, and more, the close of the socket with
still attached rights is mostly an application failure. The change
should not affect the performance of typical users of SCM_RIGHTS.

sockets. This allows for reliable bi-directional datagram communication
over UNIX domain sockets, in contrast to SOCK_DGRAM (M:N, unreliable) or
SOCK_STERAM (bi-directional bytestream). Largely, this reuses existing
UNIX domain socket code. This allows applications requiring record-
oriented semantics to do so reliably via local IPC.
Some implementation notes (also present in XXX comments):
- Currently we lack an sbappend variant able to do datagrams and control
data without doing addresses, so we mark SOCK_SEQPACKET as PR_ADDR.
Adding a new variant will solve this problem.
- UNIX domain sockets on FreeBSD provide back-pressure/flow control
notification for stream sockets by manipulating the send socket
buffer's size during pru_send and pru_rcvd. This trick works less well
for SOCK_SEQPACKET as sosend_generic() uses sb_hiwat not just to
manage blocking, but also to determine maximum datagram size. Fixing
this requires rethinking how back-pressure is done for SOCK_SEQPACKET;
in the mean time, it's possible to get EMSGSIZE when buffers fill,
instead of blocking.

count of the number of registered policies.
Rather than unconditionally locking sockets before passing them into MAC,
lock them in the MAC entry points only if mac_policy_count is non-zero.
This avoids locking overhead for a number of socket system calls when no
policies are registered, eliminating measurable overhead for the MAC
Framework for the socket subsystem when there are no active policies.
Possibly socket locks should be acquired by policies if they are required
for socket labels, which would further avoid locking overhead when there
are policies but they don't require labeling of sockets, or possibly
don't even implement socket controls.

previously always pointing to the default vnet context, to a
dynamically changing thread-local one. The currvnet context
should be set on entry to networking code via CURVNET_SET() macros,
and reverted to previous state via CURVNET_RESTORE(). Recursions
on curvnet are permitted, though strongly discuouraged.
This change should have no functional impact on nooptions VIMAGE
kernel builds, where CURVNET_* macros expand to whitespace.
The curthread->td_vnet (aka curvnet) variable's purpose is to be an
indicator of the vnet context in which the current network-related
operation takes place, in case we cannot deduce the current vnet
context from any other source, such as by looking at mbuf's
m->m_pkthdr.rcvif->if_vnet, sockets's so->so_vnet etc. Moreover, so
far curvnet has turned out to be an invaluable consistency checking
aid: it helps to catch cases when sockets, ifnets or any other
vnet-aware structures may have leaked from one vnet to another.
The exact placement of the CURVNET_SET() / CURVNET_RESTORE() macros
was a result of an empirical iterative process, whith an aim to
reduce recursions on CURVNET_SET() to a minimum, while still reducing
the scope of CURVNET_SET() to networking only operations - the
alternative would be calling CURVNET_SET() on each system call entry.
In general, curvnet has to be set in three typicall cases: when
processing socket-related requests from userspace or from within the
kernel; when processing inbound traffic flowing from device drivers
to upper layers of the networking stack, and when executing
timer-driven networking functions.
This change also introduces a DDB subcommand to show the list of all
vnet instances.

mutex unp_list_lock, and a global linkage rwlock, unp_global_rwlock,

This eliminates conditional lock acquisition that was previously a
property of the global lock being held over sonewconn() leading to a
call to uipc_attach(), which also required the global lock, but
couldn't rely on it as other paths existed to uipc_attach() that
didn't hold it: now uipc_attach() uses only the list lock, which
follows the linkage lock in the lock order. It may also reduce
contention on the global lock for some workloads.
Add global UNIX domain socket locks to hard-coded witness lock
