For incoming packets, the packet's source address is checked if it
belongs to a directly connected network. If the network is directly
connected, then the interface the packet came on in is compared to
the interface the network is connected to. When incoming interface
and directly connected interface are not the same, the packet does
not match.
Usage example:

unless we are actually using inpcb fields other than the bound port
and address. Since we hold the pcbinfo lock already, these can't
change. Defer acquiring the inpcb mutex until we have a high
chance of a match. This avoids about 120 mutex operations per UDP

Alice is too lazy to write a server application in PF-independent
manner. Therefore she knocks up the server using PF_INET6 only
and allows the IPv6 socket to accept mapped IPv4 as well. An evil
hacker known on IRC as cheshire_cat has an account in the same
system. He starts a process listening on the same port as used
by Alice's server, but in PF_INET. As a consequence, cheshire_cat
will distract all IPv4 traffic supposed to go to Alice's server.
Such sort of port theft was initially enabled by copying the code that
implemented the RFC 2553 semantics on IPv4/6 sockets (see inet6(4)) for
the implied case of the same owner for both connections. After this
change, the above scenario will be impossible. In the same setting,
the user who attempts to start his server last will get EADDRINUSE.
Of course, using IPv4 mapped to IPv6 leads to security complications
in the first place, but there is no reason to make it even more unsafe.
This change doesn't apply to KAME since it affects a FreeBSD-specific
part of the code. It doesn't modify the out-of-box behaviour of the
TCP/IP stack either as long as mapping IPv4 to IPv6 is off by default.

To quote the submitter:
The uRPF loose-check implementation by the industry vendors, at least on Cisco
and possibly Juniper, will fail the check if the route of the source address
is pointed to Null0 (on Juniper, discard or reject route). What this means is,
even if uRPF Loose-check finds the route, if the route is pointed to blackhole,
uRPF loose-check must fail. This allows people to utilize uRPF loose-check mode
as a pseudo-packet-firewall without using any manual filtering configuration --
one can simply inject a IGP or BGP prefix with next-hop set to a static route
that directs to null/discard facility. This results in uRPF Loose-check failing
on all packets with source addresses that are within the range of the nullroute.

The fix is to postpone sack retransmit to a subsequent recovery episode

recall the flow label so that the flowlabel used for the SYN|ACK

associated with performing a wakeup on the socket buffer:
- When performing an sbappend*() followed by a so[rw]wakeup(), explicitly
acquire the socket buffer lock and use the _locked() variants of both
calls. Note that the _locked() sowakeup() versions unlock the mutex on
return. This is done in uipc_send(), divert_packet(), mroute
socket_send(), raw_append(), tcp_reass(), tcp_input(), and udp_append().
- When the socket buffer lock is dropped before a sowakeup(), remove the
explicit unlock and use the _locked() sowakeup() variant. This is done
in soisdisconnecting(), soisdisconnected() when setting the can't send/
receive flags and dropping data, and in uipc_rcvd() which adjusting
