4c2206b625 - Accept Router Advertisement messages even when net.inet6.ip6.forwarding=1.
- A new per-interface knob IFF_ND6_NO_RADR and sysctl IPV6CTL_NO_RADR.
  This controls if accepting a route in an RA message as the default route.
  The default value for each interface can be set by net.inet6.ip6.no_radr.
  The system wide default value is 0.

- A new sysctl: net.inet6.ip6.norbit_raif.  This controls if setting R-bit in
  NA on RA accepting interfaces.  The default is 0 (R-bit is set based on
  net.inet6.ip6.forwarding).

Background:

 IPv6 host/router model suggests a router sends an RA and a host accepts it for
 router discovery.  Because of that, KAME implementation does not allow
 accepting RAs when net.inet6.ip6.forwarding=1.  Accepting RAs on a router can
 make the routing table confused since it can change the default router
 unintentionally.

 However, in practice there are cases where we cannot distinguish a host from
 a router clearly.  For example, a customer edge router often works as a host
 against the ISP, and as a router against the LAN at the same time.  Another
 example is a complex network configurations like an L2TP tunnel for IPv6
 connection to Internet over an Ethernet link with another native IPv6 subnet.
 In this case, the physical interface for the native IPv6 subnet works as a
 host, and the pseudo-interface for L2TP works as the default IP forwarding
 route.

Problem:

 Disabling processing RA messages when net.inet6.ip6.forwarding=1 and
 accepting them when net.inet6.ip6.forward=0 cause the following practical
 issues:

 - A router cannot perform SLAAC.  It becomes a problem if a box has
   multiple interfaces and you want to use SLAAC on some of them, for
   example.  A customer edge router for IPv6 Internet access service
   using an IPv6-over-IPv6 tunnel sometimes needs SLAAC on the
   physical interface for administration purpose; updating firmware
   and so on (link-local addresses can be used there, but GUAs by
   SLAAC are often used for scalability).

 - When a host has multiple IPv6 interfaces and it receives multiple RAs on
   them, controlling the default route is difficult.  Router preferences
   defined in RFC 4191 works only when the routers on the links are
   under your control.

Details of Implementation Changes:

 Router Advertisement messages will be accepted even when
 net.inet6.ip6.forwarding=1.  More precisely, the conditions are as
 follow:

 (ACCEPT_RTADV && !NO_RADR && !ip6.forwarding)
	=> Normal RA processing on that interface. (as IPv6 host)

 (ACCEPT_RTADV && (NO_RADR || ip6.forwarding))
	=> Accept RA but add the router to the defroute list with
	   rtlifetime=0 unconditionally.  This effectively prevents
	   from setting the received router address as the box's
	   default route.

 (!ACCEPT_RTADV)
	=> No RA processing on that interface.

 ACCEPT_RTADV and NO_RADR are per-interface knob.  In short, all interface
 are classified as "RA-accepting" or not.  An RA-accepting interface always
 processes RA messages regardless of ip6.forwarding.  The difference caused by
 NO_RADR or ip6.forwarding is whether the RA source address is considered as
 the default router or not.

 R-bit in NA on the RA accepting interfaces is set based on
 net.inet6.ip6.forwarding.  While RFC 6204 W-1 rule (for CPE case) suggests
 a router should disable the R-bit completely even when the box has
 net.inet6.ip6.forwarding=1, I believe there is no technical reason with
 doing so.  This behavior can be set by a new sysctl net.inet6.ip6.norbit_raif
 (the default is 0).

Usage:

 # ifconfig fxp0 inet6 accept_rtadv
	=> accept RA on fxp0
 # ifconfig fxp0 inet6 accept_rtadv no_radr
	=> accept RA on fxp0 but ignore default route information in it.
 # sysctl net.inet6.ip6.norbit_no_radr=1
	=> R-bit in NAs on RA accepting interfaces will always be set to 0.

"Whitspace" churn after the VIMAGE/VNET whirls.

Remove the need for some "init" functions within the network
stack, like pim6_init(), icmp_init() or significantly shorten
others like ip6_init() and nd6_init(), using static initialization
again where possible and formerly missed.

Move (most) variables back to the place they used to be before the
container structs and VIMAGE_GLOABLS (before r185088) and try to
reduce the diff to stable/7 and earlier as good as possible,
to help out-of-tree consumers to update from 6.x or 7.x to 8 or 9.

This also removes some header file pollution for putatively
static global variables.

Revert VIMAGE specific changes in ipfilter::ip_auth.c, that are
no longer needed.

a506bcc1c4 The IFA_RTSELF address flag marks a loopback route has been installed
for the interface address. This marker is necessary to properly support
PPP types of links where multiple links can have the same local end
IP address. The IFA_RTSELF flag bit maps to the RTF_HOST value, which
was combined into the route flag bits during prefix installation in
IPv6. This inclusion causing the prefix route to be unusable. This
patch fixes this bug by excluding the IFA_RTSELF flag during route
installation.

2eb62239d7 Improve flexibility of receiving Router Advertisement and
automatic link-local address configuration:

- Convert a sysctl net.inet6.ip6.accept_rtadv to one for the
  default value of a per-IF flag ND6_IFF_ACCEPT_RTADV, not a
  global knob.  The default value of the sysctl is 0.

- Add a new per-IF flag ND6_IFF_AUTO_LINKLOCAL and convert a
  sysctl net.inet6.ip6.auto_linklocal to one for its default
  value.  The default value of the sysctl is 1.

- Make ND6_IFF_IFDISABLED more robust.  It can be used to disable
  IPv6 functionality of an interface now.

- Receiving RA is allowed if ip6_forwarding==0 *and*
  ND6_IFF_ACCEPT_RTADV is set on that interface.  The former
  condition will be revisited later to support a "host + router" box
  like IPv6 CPE router.  The current behavior is compatible with
  the older releases of FreeBSD.

- The ifconfig(8) now supports these ND6 flags as well as "nud",
  "prefer_source", and "disabled" in ndp(8).  The ndp(8) now
  supports "auto_linklocal".

e888e87097 Prefix on-link verification is being performed on statically
configured prefixes. Since these statically configured prefixes
do not have any associated advertising routers, these prefixes
are treated as unreachable and those prefix routes are deleted
from the routing table. Therefore bypass prefixes that are not

57ca4583e7 Build on Jeff Roberson's linker-set based dynamic per-CPU allocator
(DPCPU), as suggested by Peter Wemm, and implement a new per-virtual
network stack memory allocator.  Modify vnet to use the allocator
instead of monolithic global container structures (vinet, ...).  This
change solves many binary compatibility problems associated with
VIMAGE, and restores ELF symbols for virtualized global variables.

Each virtualized global variable exists as a "reference copy", and also
once per virtual network stack.  Virtualized global variables are
tagged at compile-time, placing the in a special linker set, which is
loaded into a contiguous region of kernel memory.  Virtualized global
variables in the base kernel are linked as normal, but those in modules
are copied and relocated to a reserved portion of the kernel's vnet
region with the help of a the kernel linker.

Virtualized global variables exist in per-vnet memory set up when the
network stack instance is created, and are initialized statically from
the reference copy.  Run-time access occurs via an accessor macro, which
converts from the current vnet and requested symbol to a per-vnet
address.  When "options VIMAGE" is not compiled into the kernel, normal
global ELF symbols will be used instead and indirection is avoided.

This change restores static initialization for network stack global
variables, restores support for non-global symbols and types, eliminates
the need for many subsystem constructors, eliminates large per-subsystem
structures that caused many binary compatibility issues both for
monitoring applications (netstat) and kernel modules, removes the
per-function INIT_VNET_*() macros throughout the stack, eliminates the
need for vnet_symmap ksym(2) munging, and eliminates duplicate
definitions of virtualized globals under VIMAGE_GLOBALS.

c9ef486fe1 Modify most routines returning 'struct ifaddr *' to return references
rather than pointers, requiring callers to properly dispose of those
references.  The following routines now return references:

  ifaddr_byindex

  ifa_ifwithdstaddr
  ifa_ifwithnet
  ifaof_ifpforaddr

  in6_ifadd
  carp_iamatch6
  ip6_getdstifaddr

Remove unused macro which didn't have required referencing:

  IFP_TO_IA6

This closes many small races in which changes to interface
or address lists while an ifaddr was in use could lead to use of freed
memory (etc).  In a few cases, add missing if_addr_list locking
required to safely acquire references.

Because of a lack of deep copying support, we accept a race in which
an in6_ifaddr pointed to by mbuf tags and extracted with
ip6_getdstifaddr() doesn't hold a reference while in transmit.  Once
we have mbuf tag deep copy support, this can be fixed.

ec826ad5c7 This main goals of this project are:
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

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

switch between using global variables and their counterparts residing in
virtualization containers with minimum code churn, and in the long run

  packet streams to be routed by more than just the destination address.

  Constraints:
  ------------

  I want to make some form of this available in the 6.x tree
  (and by extension 7.x) , but FreeBSD in general needs it so I might as
  well do it in -current and back port the portions I need.

  One of the ways that this can be done is to have the ability to
  instantiate multiple kernel routing tables (which I will now
  refer to as "Forwarding Information Bases" or "FIBs" for political
  correctness reasons). Which FIB a particular packet uses to make
  the next hop decision can be decided by a number of mechanisms.
  The policies these mechanisms implement are the "Policies" referred
  to in "Policy based routing".

  One of the constraints I have if I try to back port this work to
  6.x is that it must be implemented as a EXTENSION to the existing
  ABIs in 6.x so that third party applications do not need to be
  recompiled in timespan of the branch.

  This first version will not have some of the bells and whistles that
  will come with later versions. It will, for example, be limited to 16
  tables in the first commit.
  Implementation method, Compatible version. (part 1)
  -------------------------------
  For this reason I have implemented a "sufficient subset" of a
  multiple routing table solution in Perforce, and back-ported it
  to 6.x. (also in Perforce though not  always caught up with what I
  have done in -current/P4). The subset allows a number of FIBs
  to be defined at compile time (8 is sufficient for my purposes in 6.x)
  and implements the changes needed to allow IPV4 to use them. I have not
  done the changes for ipv6 simply because I do not need it, and I do not
  have enough knowledge of ipv6 (e.g. neighbor discovery) needed to do it.

  Other protocol families are left untouched and should there be
  users with proprietary protocol families, they should continue to work
  and be oblivious to the existence of the extra FIBs.

  To understand how this is done, one must know that the current FIB
  code starts everything off with a single dimensional array of
  pointers to FIB head structures (One per protocol family), each of
  which in turn points to the trie of routes available to that family.

  The basic change in the ABI compatible version of the change is to
  extent that array to be a 2 dimensional array, so that
  instead of protocol family X looking at rt_tables[X] for the
  table it needs, it looks at rt_tables[Y][X] when for all
  protocol families except ipv4 Y is always 0.
  Code that is unaware of the change always just sees the first row
  of the table, which of course looks just like the one dimensional
  array that existed before.

  The entry points rtrequest(), rtalloc(), rtalloc1(), rtalloc_ign()
  are all maintained, but refer only to the first row of the array,
  so that existing callers in proprietary protocols can continue to
  do the "right thing".
  Some new entry points are added, for the exclusive use of ipv4 code
  called in_rtrequest(), in_rtalloc(), in_rtalloc1() and in_rtalloc_ign(),
  which have an extra argument which refers the code to the correct row.

  In addition, there are some new entry points (currently called
  rtalloc_fib() and friends) that check the Address family being
  looked up and call either rtalloc() (and friends) if the protocol
  is not IPv4 forcing the action to row 0 or to the appropriate row
  if it IS IPv4 (and that info is available). These are for calling
  from code that is not specific to any particular protocol. The way
  these are implemented would change in the non ABI preserving code
  to be added later.

  One feature of the first version of the code is that for ipv4,
  the interface routes show up automatically on all the FIBs, so
  that no matter what FIB you select you always have the basic
  direct attached hosts available to you. (rtinit() does this
  automatically).

  You CAN delete an interface route from one FIB should you want
  to but by default it's there. ARP information is also available
  in each FIB. It's assumed that the same machine would have the
  same MAC address, regardless of which FIB you are using to get
  to it.

  This brings us as to how the correct FIB is selected for an outgoing
  IPV4 packet.

  Firstly, all packets have a FIB associated with them. if nothing
  has been done to change it, it will be FIB 0. The FIB is changed
  in the following ways.

  Packets fall into one of a number of classes.

  1/ locally generated packets, coming from a socket/PCB.
     Such packets select a FIB from a number associated with the
     socket/PCB. This in turn is inherited from the process,
     but can be changed by a socket option. The process in turn
     inherits it on fork. I have written a utility call setfib
     that acts a bit like nice..

         setfib -3 ping target.example.com # will use fib 3 for ping.

     It is an obvious extension to make it a property of a jail
     but I have not done so. It can be achieved by combining the setfib and
     jail commands.

  2/ packets received on an interface for forwarding.
     By default these packets would use table 0,
     (or possibly a number settable in a sysctl(not yet)).
     but prior to routing the firewall can inspect them (see below).
     (possibly in the future you may be able to associate a FIB
     with packets received on an interface..  An ifconfig arg, but not yet.)

  3/ packets inspected by a packet classifier, which can arbitrarily
     associate a fib with it on a packet by packet basis.
     A fib assigned to a packet by a packet classifier
     (such as ipfw) would over-ride a fib associated by
     a more default source. (such as cases 1 or 2).

  4/ a tcp listen socket associated with a fib will generate
     accept sockets that are associated with that same fib.

  5/ Packets generated in response to some other packet (e.g. reset
     or icmp packets). These should use the FIB associated with the
     packet being reponded to.

  6/ Packets generated during encapsulation.
     gif, tun and other tunnel interfaces will encapsulate using the FIB
     that was in effect withthe proces that set up the tunnel.
     thus setfib 1 ifconfig gif0 [tunnel instructions]
     will set the fib for the tunnel to use to be fib 1.

  Routing messages would be associated with their
  process, and thus select one FIB or another.
  messages from the kernel would be associated with the fib they
  refer to and would only be received by a routing socket associated
  with that fib. (not yet implemented)

  In addition Netstat has been edited to be able to cope with the
  fact that the array is now 2 dimensional. (It looks in system
  memory using libkvm (!)). Old versions of netstat see only the first FIB.

  In addition two sysctls are added to give:
  a) the number of FIBs compiled in (active)
  b) the default FIB of the calling process.

  Early testing experience:
  -------------------------

  Basically our (IronPort's) appliance does this functionality already
  using ipfw fwd but that method has some drawbacks.

  For example,
  It can't fully simulate a routing table because it can't influence the
  socket's choice of local address when a connect() is done.

  Testing during the generating of these changes has been
  remarkably smooth so far. Multiple tables have co-existed
  with no notable side effects, and packets have been routes
  accordingly.

  ipfw has grown 2 new keywords:

  setfib N ip from anay to any
  count ip from any to any fib N

  In pf there seems to be a requirement to be able to give symbolic names to the
  fibs but I do not have that capacity. I am not sure if it is required.

  SCTP has interestingly enough built in support for this, called VRFs
  in Cisco parlance. it will be interesting to see how that handles it
  when it suddenly actually does something.

  Where to next:
  --------------------

  After committing the ABI compatible version and MFCing it, I'd
  like to proceed in a forward direction in -current. this will
  result in some roto-tilling in the routing code.

  Firstly: the current code's idea of having a separate tree per
  protocol family, all of the same format, and pointed to by the
  1 dimensional array is a bit silly. Especially when one considers that
  there is code that makes assumptions about every protocol having the
  same internal structures there. Some protocols don't WANT that
  sort of structure. (for example the whole idea of a netmask is foreign
  to appletalk). This needs to be made opaque to the external code.

  My suggested first change is to add routing method pointers to the
  'domain' structure, along with information pointing the data.
  instead of having an array of pointers to uniform structures,
  there would be an array pointing to the 'domain' structures
  for each protocol address domain (protocol family),
  and the methods this reached would be called. The methods would have
  an argument that gives FIB number, but the protocol would be free
  to ignore it.

  When the ABI can be changed it raises the possibilty of the
  addition of a fib entry into the "struct route". Currently,
  the structure contains the sockaddr of the desination, and the resulting
  fib entry. To make this work fully, one could add a fib number
  so that given an address and a fib, one can find the third element, the
  fib entry.

  Interaction with the ARP layer/ LL layer would need to be
  revisited as well. Qing Li has been working on this already.

Longer term we may want to kill off if_name() entierly since all modern
