- Count global pf(4) statistics in counter(9).
- Do not count global number of states and of src_nodes,
use uma_zone_get_cur() to obtain values.
- Struct pf_status becomes merely an ioctl API structure,
and moves to netpfil/pf/pf.h with its constants.
- V_pf_status is now of type struct pf_kstatus.

De-virtualize UMA zone pf_mtag_z and move to global initialization part.
The m_tag struct does not know about vnet context and the pf_mtag_free()
callback is called unaware of current vnet. This causes a panic.

These changesets split pfvar.h into several smaller headers and make
userland utilities to include only some of them.
Once pf became not covered by a single mutex, many counters in it became
race prone. Some just gather statistics, but some are later used in
different calculations.
A real problem was the race provoked underflow of the states_cur counter
on a rule. Once it goes below zero, it wraps to UINT32_MAX. Later this
value is used in pf_state_expires() and any state created by this rule
is immediately expired.
Thus, make fields states_cur, states_tot and src_nodes of struct
pf_rule be counter(9)s.
1) Ruleset parser uses a global variable for anchor stack.
2) When processing a wildcard anchor, matching anchors are marked.
To fix the first one:
o Allocate anchor processing stack on stack. To make this allocation
as small as possible, following measures taken:
- Maximum stack size reduced from 64 to 32.
- The struct pf_anchor_stackframe trimmed by one pointer - parent.
We can always obtain the parent via the rule pointer.
- When pf_test_rule() calls pf_get_translation(), the former lends
its stack to the latter, to avoid recursive allocation 32 entries.
The second one appeared more tricky. The code, that marks anchors was
added in OpenBSD rev. 1.516 of pf.c. According to commit log, the idea
is to enable the "quick" keyword on an anchor rule. The feature isn't
documented anywhere. The most obscure part of the 1.516 was that code
examines the "match" mark on a just processed child, which couldn't be
put here by current frame. Since this wasn't documented even in the
commit message and functionality of this is not clear to me, I decided
to drop this examination for now. The rest of 1.516 is redone in a
thread safe manner - the mark isn't put on the anchor itself, but on
current stack frame. To avoid growing stack frame, we utilize LSB
from the rule pointer, relying on kernel malloc(9) returning pointer
aligned addresses.

reside, and move there ipfw(4) and pf(4).
o Move most modified parts of pf out of contrib.
Actual movements:
sys/contrib/pf/net/*.c -> sys/netpfil/pf/
sys/contrib/pf/net/*.h -> sys/net/
contrib/pf/pfctl/*.c -> sbin/pfctl
contrib/pf/pfctl/*.h -> sbin/pfctl
contrib/pf/pfctl/pfctl.8 -> sbin/pfctl
contrib/pf/pfctl/*.4 -> share/man/man4
contrib/pf/pfctl/*.5 -> share/man/man5
sys/netinet/ipfw -> sys/netpfil/ipfw
The arguable movement is pf/net/*.h -> sys/net. There are
future plans to refactor pf includes, so I decided not to
break things twice.
Not modified bits of pf left in contrib: authpf, ftp-proxy,
tftp-proxy, pflogd.
The ipfw(4) movement is planned to be merged to stable/9,
to make head and stable match.
