removed from args structure. Action is not flag any more. It is one
of integer constants.
- Any action-specific cookies are returned either in new "cookie" field
in args structure (dummynet, future netgraph glue), or in mbuf tag
attached to packet (divert, tee, some future action).

mechanism used by pfil. This shared locking mechanism will remove
a nasty lock order reversal which occurs when ucred based rules
are used which results in hard locks while mpsafenet=1.
So this removes the debug.mpsafenet=0 requirement when using
ucred based rules with IPFW.
It should be noted that this locking mechanism does not guarantee
fairness between read and write locks, and that it will favor
firewall chain readers over writers. This seemed acceptable since
write operations to firewall chains protected by this lock tend to
be less frequent than reads.

semantics of IPDIVERT remain intact. If IPDIVERT is not loaded ipfw will refuse to
install divert rules and natd will complain about 'protocol not supported'. Once
it is loaded both will work and accept rules and open the divert socket. The module

so later. The missing piece is to turn the filter locking into a leaf lock

This will hopefully be MT5'ed in order to fix the problem for RELENG_5 in

the ipfw KLD.
For IPFIREWALL_FORWARD this does not have any side effects. If the module
has it but not the kernel it just doesn't do anything.
For IPDIVERT the KLD will be unloadable if the kernel doesn't have IPDIVERT
compiled in too. However this is the least disturbing behaviour. The user
can just recompile either module or the kernel to match the other one. The
access to the machine is not denied if ipfw refuses to load.
and preserves the ipfw ABI. The ipfw core packet inspection and filtering
functions have not been changed, only how ipfw is invoked is different.
However there are many changes how ipfw is and its add-on's are handled:
In general ipfw is now called through the PFIL_HOOKS and most associated
magic, that was in ip_input() or ip_output() previously, is now done in
ipfw_check_[in|out]() in the ipfw PFIL handler.
IPDIVERT is entirely handled within the ipfw PFIL handlers. A packet to
be diverted is checked if it is fragmented, if yes, ip_reass() gets in for
reassembly. If not, or all fragments arrived and the packet is complete,
divert_packet is called directly. For 'tee' no reassembly attempt is made
and a copy of the packet is sent to the divert socket unmodified. The
original packet continues its way through ip_input/output().
ipfw 'forward' is done via m_tag's. The ipfw PFIL handlers tag the packet
with the new destination sockaddr_in. A check if the new destination is a
local IP address is made and the m_flags are set appropriately. ip_input()
and ip_output() have some more work to do here. For ip_input() the m_flags
are checked and a packet for us is directly sent to the 'ours' section for
further processing. Destination changes on the input path are only tagged
and the 'srcrt' flag to ip_forward() is set to disable destination checks
and ICMP replies at this stage. The tag is going to be handled on output.
ip_output() again checks for m_flags and the 'ours' tag. If found, the
packet will be dropped back to the IP netisr where it is going to be picked
up by ip_input() again and the directly sent to the 'ours' section. When
only the destination changes, the route's 'dst' is overwritten with the
new destination from the forward m_tag. Then it jumps back at the route
lookup again and skips the firewall check because it has been marked with
M_SKIP_FIREWALL. ipfw 'forward' has to be compiled into the kernel with
'option IPFIREWALL_FORWARD' to enable it.
DUMMYNET is entirely handled within the ipfw PFIL handlers. A packet for
a dummynet pipe or queue is directly sent to dummynet_io(). Dummynet will
then inject it back into ip_input/ip_output() after it has served its time.
Dummynet packets are tagged and will continue from the next rule when they
hit the ipfw PFIL handlers again after re-injection.
BRIDGING and IPFW_ETHER are not changed yet and use ipfw_chk() directly as
they did before. Later this will be changed to dedicated ETHER PFIL_HOOKS.
More detailed changes to the code:
conf/files
Add netinet/ip_fw_pfil.c.
conf/options
Add IPFIREWALL_FORWARD option.
modules/ipfw/Makefile
Add ip_fw_pfil.c.
net/bridge.c
Disable PFIL_HOOKS if ipfw for bridging is active. Bridging ipfw
is still directly invoked to handle layer2 headers and packets would
get a double ipfw when run through PFIL_HOOKS as well.
netinet/ip_divert.c
Removed divert_clone() function. It is no longer used.
netinet/ip_dummynet.[ch]
Neither the route 'ro' nor the destination 'dst' need to be stored
while in dummynet transit. Structure members and associated macros
are removed.

'ipfw forward' handling code.
netinet/ip_fw.h
Removed 'ro' and 'dst' from struct ip_fw_args.

netinet/ip_input.c
Removed all direct ipfw handling code and replace it with the new
'ipfw forward' handling code. ip_forward() does not longer require
the 'next_hop' struct sockaddr_in argument. Disable early checks
if 'srcrt' is set.

'ipfw forward' handling code.

Since the only thing truly unique about a prison is it's ID, I figured
this would be the most granular way of handling this.
This commit makes the following changes:
- Adds tokenizing and parsing for the ``jail'' command line option
to the ipfw(8) userspace utility.
- Append the ipfw opcode list with O_JAIL.
- While Iam here, add a comment informing others that if they
want to add additional opcodes, they should append them to the end
of the list to avoid ABI breakage.
- Add ``fw_prid'' to the ipfw ucred cache structure.
- When initializing ucred cache, if the process is jailed,
set fw_prid to the prison ID, otherwise set it to -1.
- Update man page to reflect these changes.
This change was a strong motivator behind the ucred caching
mechanism in ipfw.
A sample usage of this new functionality could be:
ipfw add count ip from any to any jail 2
It should be noted that because ucred based constraints
are only implemented for TCP and UDP packets, the same
applies for jail associations.

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.

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.

firewall to be used in multiple passes, or with a packet classifier frontend,

This is done by extracting the required information out of the PCB

PCB looking contention and speed up the processing of UID/GID based
firewall rules (especially with large UID/GID rulesets).
Some very basic benchmarks were taken which compares the number
of in_pcblookup_hash(9) activations to the number of firewall
rules containing UID/GID based contraints before and after this patch.

as a LOR.) The flag bit in the mbuf that was used to mark the

prepended (as done by IPsec) the flag was lost. Correct this by
defining a new M_PROTO6 flag and use it to mark packets that need

from the routing table metrics to the tcp hostcache.
It caches measured parameters of past tcp sessions to provide better
initial start values for following connections from or to the same
source or destination. Depending on the network parameters to/from
the remote host this can lead to significant speedups for new tcp
connections after the first one because they inherit and shortcut
the learning curve.
tcp_hostcache is designed for multiple concurrent access in SMP
environments with high contention and is hash indexed by remote
ip address.
It removes significant locking requirements from the tcp stack with
