This is because the switch uses iw_cm_event::status, which is an enum
iw_cm_event_status, while ECONNRESET, ETIMEDOUT and ECONNREFUSED are
just plain defines from errno.h.
It looks like there is only one use of any of the enumeration values of
iw_cm_event_status, in:

State expire time is a baseline time ("last active") for expiry

it should never be added to (set into the future).
Try to reconstruct it with an educated guess on state import and
just set it to the current time on state updates.
This fixes a problem on pfsync listeners where the expiry time
could be double the expected value and cause a lot more states

This primarily brings in support for newer hardware, and FreeBSD is not yet
able to support the abundance of IRQs on new hardware and many features in the
Ethernet driver.
Because of the changes to IRQs in the Simple Executive, we have to maintain our
own list of Octeon IRQs now, which probably can be pared-down and be specific
to the CIU interrupt unit soon, and when other interrupt mechanisms are added
they can maintain their own definitions.
Remove unmasking of interrupts from within the UART device now that the
function used is no longer present in the Simple Executive. The unmasking
seems to have been gratuitous as this is more properly handled by the buses
above the UART device, and seems to work on that basis.

Don't forget to cancel bulk update failure timeout when destroying an
interface. Problem report and fix from Erik Lax, thanks!
Start a brief note of revisions merged from OpenBSD.
7.x, 8.x and 9.x with pf(4) imports: pfsync(4) should suppress CARP
preemption, while it is running its bulk update.
However, reimplement the feature in more elegant manner, that is
partially inspired by newer OpenBSD:
- Rename term "suppression" to "demotion", to match with OpenBSD.
- Keep a global demotion factor, that can be raised by several
conditions, for now these are:
- interface goes down
- carp(4) has problems with ip_output() or ip6_output()
- pfsync performs bulk update
- Unlike in OpenBSD the demotion factor isn't a counter, but
is actual value added to advskew. The adjustment values for
particular error conditions are also configurable, and their
defaults are maximum advskew value, so a single failure bumps
demotion to maximum. This is for POLA compatibility, and should
satisfy most users.
- Demotion factor is a writable sysctl, so user can do
foot shooting, if he desires to.
of scheduling next run pfsync_bulk_update(), pfsync_bulk_fail()
was scheduled.
This lead to instant 100% state leak after first bulk update
request.
- After above fix, it appeared that pfsync_bulk_update() lacks
locking. To fix this, sc_bulk_tmo callout was converted to an
mtx one. Eventually, all pf/pfsync callouts should be converted
to mtx version, since it isn't possible to stop or drain a
non-mtx callout without risk of race.
- Add comment that callout_stop() in pfsync_clone_destroy() lacks
locking. Since pfsync0 can't be destroyed (yet), let it be here.
The root of problem is re-locking at the end of pfsync_sendout().
Several functions are calling pfsync_sendout() holding pointers
to pf data on stack, and these functions expect this data to be
consistent.
To fix this, the following approach was taken:
- The pfsync_sendout() doesn't call ip_output() directly, but
enqueues the mbuf on sc->sc_ifp's interfaces queue, that
is currently unused. Then pfsync netisr is scheduled. PF_LOCK
isn't dropped in pfsync_sendout().
- The netisr runs through queue and ip_output()s packets
on it.
Apart from fixing race, this also decouples stack, fixing
potential issues, that may happen, when sending pfsync(4)
packets on input path.

pfsync also depends on pf to be initialized already so pf goes at
FIRST and the interfaces go at ANY.
Then the (VNET_)SYSINIT startups for pf stays at SI_SUB_PROTO_BEGIN

- The existing ipi_lock continues to protect the global inpcb list and
inpcb counter. This lock is now relegated to a small number of
allocation and free operations, and occasional operations that walk
all connections (including, awkwardly, certain UDP multicast receive
operations -- something to revisit).
- A new ipi_hash_lock protects the two inpcbinfo hash tables for
looking up connections and bound sockets, manipulated using new
INP_HASH_*() macros. This lock, combined with inpcb locks, protects
the 4-tuple address space.
Unlike the current ipi_lock, ipi_hash_lock follows the individual inpcb
connection locks, so may be acquired while manipulating a connection on
which a lock is already held, avoiding the need to acquire the inpcbinfo
lock preemptively when a binding change might later be required. As a
result, however, lookup operations necessarily go through a reference
acquire while holding the lookup lock, later acquiring an inpcb lock --
if required.
A new function in_pcblookup() looks up connections, and accepts flags
indicating how to return the inpcb. Due to lock order changes, callers
no longer need acquire locks before performing a lookup: the lookup
routine will acquire the ipi_hash_lock as needed. In the future, it will
also be able to use alternative lookup and locking strategies
transparently to callers, such as pcbgroup lookup. New lookup flags are,
supplementing the existing INPLOOKUP_WILDCARD flag:
INPLOOKUP_RLOCKPCB - Acquire a read lock on the returned inpcb
INPLOOKUP_WLOCKPCB - Acquire a write lock on the returned inpcb
Callers must pass exactly one of these flags (for the time being).
Some notes:
- All protocols are updated to work within the new regime; especially,
TCP, UDPv4, and UDPv6. pcbinfo ipi_lock acquisitions are largely
eliminated, and global hash lock hold times are dramatically reduced
compared to previous locking.
- The TCP syncache still relies on the pcbinfo lock, something that we
may want to revisit.
- Support for reverting to the FreeBSD 7.x locking strategy in TCP input
is no longer available -- hash lookup locks are now held only very
briefly during inpcb lookup, rather than for potentially extended
periods. However, the pcbinfo ipi_lock will still be acquired if a
connection state might change such that a connection is added or
removed.
- Raw IP sockets continue to use the pcbinfo ipi_lock for protection,
due to maintaining their own hash tables.
- The interface in6_pcblookup_hash_locked() is maintained, which allows
callers to acquire hash locks and perform one or more lookups atomically
with 4-tuple allocation: this is required only for TCPv6, as there is no
in6_pcbconnect_setup(), which there should be.
- UDPv6 locking remains significantly more conservative than UDPv4
locking, which relates to source address selection. This needs
attention, as it likely significantly reduces parallelism in this code
for multithreaded socket use (such as in BIND).
- In the UDPv4 and UDPv6 multicast cases, we need to revisit locking
somewhat, as they relied on ipi_lock to stablise 4-tuple matches, which
is no longer sufficient. A second check once the inpcb lock is held
should do the trick, keeping the general case from requiring the inpcb
lock for every inpcb visited.
- This work reminds us that we need to revisit locking of the v4/v6 flags,
which may be accessed lock-free both before and after this change.
- Right now, a single lock name is used for the pcbhash lock -- this is
undesirable, and probably another argument is required to take care of
this (or a char array name field in the pcbinfo?).
This is not an MFC candidate for 8.x due to its impact on lookup and
locking semantics. It's possible some of these issues could be worked
around with compatibility wrappers, if necessary.
