that covers updates to the contents. Note this is separate from holding
a reference and/or locking the routing table itself.
Other/related changes:
o rtredirect loses the final parameter by which an rtentry reference
may be returned; this was never used and added unwarranted complexity
for locking.
o minor style cleanups to routing code (e.g. ansi-fy function decls)
o remove the logic to bump the refcnt on the parent of cloned routes,
we assume the parent will remain as long as the clone; doing this avoids
a circularity in locking during delete
o convert some timeouts to MPSAFE callouts
Notes:
1. rt_mtx in struct rtentry is guarded by #ifdef _KERNEL as user-level
applications cannot/do-no know about mutex's. Doing this requires
that the mutex be the last element in the structure. A better solution
is to introduce an externalized version of struct rtentry but this is
a major task because of the intertwining of rtentry and other data
structures that are visible to user applications.
2. There are known LOR's that are expected to go away with forthcoming
work to eliminate many held references. If not these will be resolved
prior to release.
3. ATM changes are untested.

any queued packets for the isr, process those packets before the newly
submitted packet, maintaining ordering of all packets being delivered
to the netisr. Remove the bypass counter since we don't bypass anymore.
Leave the comment about possible problems and options since later
performance optimization may change the strategy for addressing ordering
problems here.
Specifically, this maintains the strong isr ordering guarantee; additional
parallelism and lower latency may be possible by moving to weaker
guarantees (per-interface, for example). We will probably at some point
also want to remove the one instance netisr dispatch limit currently
enforced by a mutex, but it's not clear that's 100% safe yet, even in
the netperf branch.

insertion and extraction) has revealed two bugs:
- In vlan_start(), we're supposed to check the underlying interface to
see if it has the IFCAP_VLAN_HWTAGGING cabability set and, if so, set
things up for the VLAN_OUTPUT_TAG() routine. However the code checks
ifp->if_capabilities, which is the vlan pseudo-interface's capabilities
when it should be checking p->if_capabilities, which relates to the
underlying physical interface. Change ifp->if_capabilities to
p->if_capabilities so this works.
- In vlan_input(), we have to extract the 16-bit tag value from the
received frame and use it to figure out which vlan interface gets
the frame. The code that we use to track down the desired vlan
pseudo-interface is:
for (ifv = LIST_FIRST(&ifv_list); ifv != NULL;
ifv = LIST_NEXT(ifv, ifv_list))
if (ifp == ifv->ifv_p && tag == ifv->ifv_tag)
break;
The problem is that 'tag' is not computed consistently. In the case
where the interface supports hardware VLAN tag extraction and calls
VLAN_INPUT_TAG(), we do this:
tag = *(u_int*)(mtag+1);
But in the software emulation case, we do this
tag = EVL_VLANOFTAG(ntohs(evl->evl_tag));
The problem here is the EVL_VLANOFTAG() macro is only ever applied
in this one case. It's never applied to ifv->ifv_tag or anwhere else.
We must be consistent: either it's applied everywhere or nowhere.
To see how this can be a problem, do something like
ifconfig vlan0 vlan 12345 vlandev foo0 and observe the results.
I'm not quite sure what the right thing is to do here. Neither the
vlan(4) nor ifconfig(8) man pages suggest which way to go. For now,
I've removed this use of EVL_VLANOFTAG() so that the tag will match
correctly in all cases. I will not get upset if somebody makes a
compelling argument for using EVL_VLANOFTAG() everywhere instead,
as long as the use is consistent.

returning some additional room in the first mbuf in a chain, and
avoiding feature-specific contents in the mbuf header. To do this:
- Modify mbuf_to_label() to extract the tag, returning NULL if not
found.
- Introduce mac_init_mbuf_tag() which does most of the work
mac_init_mbuf() used to do, except on an m_tag rather than an
mbuf.
- Scale back mac_init_mbuf() to perform m_tag allocation and invoke
mac_init_mbuf_tag().
- Replace mac_destroy_mbuf() with mac_destroy_mbuf_tag(), since
m_tag's are now GC'd deep in the m_tag/mbuf code rather than
at a higher level when mbufs are directly free()'d.
- Add mac_copy_mbuf_tag() to support m_copy_pkthdr() and related
notions.
- Generally change all references to mbuf labels so that they use
mbuf_to_label() rather than &mbuf->m_pkthdr.label. This
required no changes in the MAC policies (yay!).
- Tweak mbuf release routines to not call mac_destroy_mbuf(),
tag destruction takes care of it for us now.
- Remove MAC magic from m_copy_pkthdr() and m_move_pkthdr() --
the existing m_tag support does all this for us. Note that
we can no longer just zero the m_tag list on the target mbuf,
rather, we have to delete the chain because m_tag's will
already be hung off freshly allocated mbuf's.
- Tweak m_tag copying routines so that if we're copying a MAC
m_tag, we don't do a binary copy, rather, we initialize the
new storage and do a deep copy of the label.
- Remove use of MAC_FLAG_INITIALIZED in a few bizarre places
having to do with mbuf header copies previously.
- When an mbuf is copied in ip_input(), we no longer need to
explicitly copy the label because it will get handled by the
m_tag code now.
- No longer any weird handling of MAC labels in if_loop.c during
header copies.
- Add MPC_LOADTIME_FLAG_LABELMBUFS flag to Biba, MLS, mac_test.
In mac_test, handle the label==NULL case, since it can be
dynamically loaded.
In order to improve performance with this change, introduce the notion
of "lazy MAC label allocation" -- only allocate m_tag storage for MAC
labels if we're running with a policy that uses MAC labels on mbufs.
Policies declare this intent by setting the MPC_LOADTIME_FLAG_LABELMBUFS
flag in their load-time flags field during declaration. Note: this
opens up the possibility of post-boot policy modules getting back NULL
slot entries even though they have policy invariants of non-NULL slot
entries, as the policy might have been loaded after the mbuf was
allocated, leaving the mbuf without label storage. Policies that cannot
handle this case must be declared as NOTLATE, or must be modified.
- mac_labelmbufs holds the current cumulative status as to whether
any policies require mbuf labeling or not. This is updated whenever
the active policy set changes by the function mac_policy_updateflags().
The function iterates the list and checks whether any have the
flag set. Write access to this variable is protected by the policy
list; read access is currently not protected for performance reasons.
This might change if it causes problems.
- Add MAC_POLICY_LIST_ASSERT_EXCLUSIVE() to permit the flags update
function to assert appropriate locks.
- This makes allocation in mac_init_mbuf() conditional on the flag.
