a9ab854862 The new ipfw code.
This code makes use of variable-size kernel representation of rules
(exactly the same concept of BPF instructions, as used in the BSDI's
firewall), which makes firewall operation a lot faster, and the
code more readable and easier to extend and debug.

The interface with the rest of the system is unchanged, as witnessed
by this commit. The only extra kernel files that I am touching
are if_fw.h and ip_dummynet.c, which is quite tied to ipfw. In
userland I only had to touch those programs which manipulate the
internal representation of firewall rules).

The code is almost entirely new (and I believe I have written the
vast majority of those sections which were taken from the former
ip_fw.c), so rather than modifying the old ip_fw.c I decided to
create a new file, sys/netinet/ip_fw2.c .  Same for the user
interface, which is in sbin/ipfw/ipfw2.c (it still compiles to
/sbin/ipfw).  The old files are still there, and will be removed
in due time.

I have not renamed the header file because it would have required
touching a one-line change to a number of kernel files.

In terms of user interface, the new "ipfw" is supposed to accepts
the old syntax for ipfw rules (and produce the same output with
"ipfw show". Only a couple of the old options (out of some 30 of
them) has not been implemented, but they will be soon.

On the other hand, the new code has some very powerful extensions.
First, you can put "or" connectives between match fields (and soon
also between options), and write things like

ipfw add allow ip from { 1.2.3.4/27 or 5.6.7.8/30 } 10-23,25,1024-3000 to any

This should make rulesets slightly more compact (and lines longer!),
by condensing 2 or more of the old rules into single ones.

Also, as an example of how easy the rules can be extended, I have
implemented an 'address set' match pattern, where you can specify
an IP address in a format like this:

        10.20.30.0/26{18,44,33,22,9}

which will match the set of hosts listed in braces belonging to the
subnet 10.20.30.0/26 . The match is done using a bitmap, so it is
essentially a constant time operation requiring a handful of CPU
instructions (and a very small amount of memmory -- for a full /24
subnet, the instruction only consumes 40 bytes).

Again, in this commit I have focused on functionality and tried
to minimize changes to the other parts of the system. Some performance
improvement can be achieved with minor changes to the interface of
ip_fw_chk_t. This will be done later when this code is settled.

The code is meant to compile unmodified on RELENG_4 (once the
PACKET_TAG_* changes have been merged), for this reason
you will see #ifdef __FreeBSD_version in a couple of places.
This should minimize errors when (hopefully soon) it will be time
to do the MFC.

7de7d2144f Fixed the bug that prevented communication with FTP servers behind
NAT in extended passive mode if the server's public IP address was
different from the main NAT address.  This caused a wrong aliasing
link to be created that did not route the incoming packets back to
the original IP address of the server.

	natd -v -n pub0 -redirect_address localFTP publicFTP

Note that even if localFTP == publicFTP, one still needs to supply
the -redirect_address directive.  It is needed as a helper because
extended passive mode's 229 reply does not contain the IP address.

- Multiple PPTP clients behind NAT to the same or different servers.

- Single PPTP server behind NAT -- you just need to redirect TCP

  possible but would require a simple API change.

- No API changes!

314acb2e38 Apply TCP_EXPIRE_CONNECTED (86400 seconds) timeout only to established
connections, after SYN packets were seen from both ends.  Before this,
it would get applied right after the first SYN packet was seen (either
from client or server).  With broken TCP connection attempts, when the
remote end does not respond with SYNACK nor with RST, this resulted in
having a useless (ie, no actual TCP connection associated with it) TCP
link with 86400 seconds TTL, wasting system memory.  With high rate of
such broken connection attempts (for example, remote end simply blocks
these connection attempts with ipfw(8) without sending RST back), this
could result in a denial-of-service.

d8acaf9b94 Properly handle the case when either the aliasing or source address of
the link are equal to the default aliasing address.  Do not zero them!

This will fix the problem with non-working links added with the source
and/or aliasing address equal to the default aliasing address, but the
default aliasing address is set later, after the link has been set up,
like both natd(8) and ppp(8) do (for objective reasons).

55c2ca09dd Handle TCP reset sequence properly.
In the words of originator:
:If an incoming connection is initiated through natd and deny_incoming is
:not set, then a new alias_link structure is created to handle the link.
:If there is nothing listening for the incoming connection, then the kernel
:responds with a RST for the connection. However, this is not processed
:correctly in libalias/alias.c:TcpMonitor{In,Out} and
:libalias/alias_db.c:SetState{In,Out} as it thinks a connection
:has been established and therefore applies a timeout of 86400 seconds
:to the link.
:
:If many of these half-connections are initiated (during, for example, a
:port scan of the host), then many thousands of unnecessary links are
:created and the resident size of natd balloons to 20MB or more.
