When using lagg failover mode neither Gratuitous ARP (IPv4) or Unsolicited
Neighbour Advertisements (IPv6) are sent to notify other nodes that the
address may have moved.
This results is slow failover, dropped packets and network outages for the
lagg interface when the primary link goes down.
We now use the new if_link_state_change_cond with the force param set to
allow lagg to force through link state changes and hence fire a
ifnet_link_event which are now monitored by rip and nd6.
Upon receiving these events each protocol trigger the relevant
notifications:
* inet4 => Gratuitous ARP
* inet6 => Unsolicited Neighbour Announce
This also fixes the carp IPv6 NA's that stopped working after r251584 which
added the ipv6_route__llma route.
The new behavour can be controlled using the sysctls:
* net.link.ether.inet.arp_on_link
* net.inet6.icmp6.nd6_on_link
Also removed unused param from lagg_port_state and added descriptions for the
sysctls while here.

- Use the carp_sx to serialize not only CARP ioctls, but also carp_attach()
and carp_detach().
- Use cif_mtx to lock only access to those the linked list.
- These locking changes allow us to do some memory allocations with M_WAITOK
and also properly call callout_drain() in carp_destroy().
- In carp_attach() assert that ifaddr isn't attached. We always come here
with a pristine address from in[6]_control().

CARP devices are created with advskew set to '0' and once you set it to
any other value in the valid range (0..254) you can't set it back to zero.
The code in question is also used to prevent that zeroed values overwrite
the CARP defaults when a new CARP device is created. Since advskew already
defaults to '0' for newly created devices and the new value is guaranteed
to be within the valid range, it is safe to overwrite it here.

the knowledge of mbuf layout, and in particular constants such as M_EXT,
MLEN, MHLEN, and so on, in mbuf consumers by unifying various alignment
utility functions (M_ALIGN(), MH_ALIGN(), MEXT_ALIGN() in a single
M_ALIGN() macro, implemented by a now-inlined m_align() function:
- Move m_align() from uipc_mbuf.c to mbuf.h; mark as __inline.
- Reimplement M_ALIGN(), MH_ALIGN(), and MEXT_ALIGN() using m_align().
- Update consumers around the tree to simply use M_ALIGN().
This change eliminates a number of cases where mbuf consumers must be aware
of whether or not mbufs returned by the allocator use external storage, but
also assumptions about the size of the returned mbuf. This will make it
easier to introduce changes in how we use external storage, as well as
features such as variable-size mbufs.

* Set ia address/mask values BEFORE attaching to address lists.
Inet6 address assignment is not atomic, so the simplest way to

In IPv4 we have to call it on every address change since ARP record
is installed by arp_ifinit() which is called by given handler.
IPv6 stack, on the opposite is responsible to call nd6_add_ifa_lle() so
there is no reason to call SIOCSIFADDR often.

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.
from scratch, copying needed functionality from the old implemenation
on demand, with a thorough review of all code. The main change is that
interface layer has been removed from the CARP. Now redundant addresses
are configured exactly on the interfaces, they run on.
The CARP configuration itself is, as before, configured and read via
SIOCSVH/SIOCGVH ioctls. A new prefix created with SIOCAIFADDR or
SIOCAIFADDR_IN6 may now be configured to a particular virtual host id,
which makes the prefix redundant.
ifconfig(8) semantics has been changed too: now one doesn't need
to clone carpXX interface, he/she should directly configure a vhid
on a Ethernet interface.
To supply vhid data from the kernel to an application the getifaddrs(8)
function had been changed to pass ifam_data with each address. [1]
The new implementation definitely closes all PRs related to carp(4)
being an interface, and may close several others. It also allows
to run a single redundant IP per interface.
Big thanks to Bjoern Zeeb for his help with inet6 part of patch, for
idea on using ifam_data and for several rounds of reviewing!
