from Mac OS X Leopard--rationalize naming for entry points to
the following general forms:
mac_<object>_<method/action>
mac_<object>_check_<method/action>
The previous naming scheme was inconsistent and mostly
reversed from the new scheme. Also, make object types more
consistent and remove spaces from object types that contain
multiple parts ("posix_sem" -> "posixsem") to make mechanical
parsing easier. Introduce a new "netinet" object type for
certain IPv4/IPv6-related methods. Also simplify, slightly,
some entry point names.
All MAC policy modules will need to be recompiled, and modules
not updates as part of this commit will need to be modified to
conform to the new KPI.

sysctl_handle_int is not sizeof the int type you want to export.

Instead of callout_reset(9) and callout_stop(9) the new function
tcp_timer_activate() is used which then internally manages the callout.
The single new callout is a mutex callout on inpcb simplifying the

tcp_timer() is the called function which handles all race conditions

Now that is has gone, the timeout is always 2*MSL again,

Also, reimplement the remaining queue using a TAILQ (it

bad under high load. For example with 40k sockets and 25k tcptw
entries, connect() syscall can run for seconds. Debugging showed
that it iterates the cycle millions times and purges thousands of
tcptw entries at a time.
Besides practical unusability this change is architecturally
wrong. First, in_pcblookup_local() is used in connect() and bind()
syscalls. No stale entries purging shouldn't be done here. Second,
it is a layering violation.
o Return back the tcptw purging cycle to tcp_timer_2msl_tw(),
that was removed in rev. 1.78 by rwatson. The commit log of this
revision tells nothing about the reason cycle was removed. Now
we need this cycle, since major cleaner of stale tcptw structures
is removed.

tcp_twstart(), but not to the other, tcp_detach(), as the socket is
already being torn down and therefore there are no listeners. This avoids
a panic if kqueue state is registered on the socket at close(), and
eliminates to XXX comments. There is one case remaining in which
tcp_discardcb() reaches up to the socket layer as part of the TCP host
cache, which would be good to avoid.

function, pru_close, to notify protocols that the file descriptor or
other consumer of a socket is closing the socket. pru_abort is now a
notification of close also, and no longer detaches. pru_detach is no
longer used to notify of close, and will be called during socket
tear-down by sofree() when all references to a socket evaporate after
an earlier call to abort or close the socket. This means detach is now
an unconditional teardown of a socket, whereas previously sockets could
persist after detach of the protocol retained a reference.
This faciliates sharing mutexes between layers of the network stack as
the mutex is required during the checking and removal of references at
the head of sofree(). With this change, pru_detach can now assume that
the mutex will no longer be required by the socket layer after
completion, whereas before this was not necessarily true.

attached to it, in the event that shutdown() is called on the
socket and the FINs properly exchange before close(). In this

pru_abort(), pru_detach(), and in_pcbdetach():
- Universally support and enforce the invariant that so_pcb is
never NULL, converting dozens of unnecessary NULL checks into
assertions, and eliminating dozens of unnecessary error handling
cases in protocol code.
- In some cases, eliminate unnecessary pcbinfo locking, as it is no
longer required to ensure so_pcb != NULL. For example, the receive
code no longer requires the pcbinfo lock, and the send code only
requires it if building a new connection on an otherwise unconnected
socket triggered via sendto() with an address. This should
significnatly reduce tcbinfo lock contention in the receive and send
cases.
- In order to support the invariant that so_pcb != NULL, it is now
necessary for the TCP code to not discard the tcpcb any time a
connection is dropped, but instead leave the tcpcb until the socket
is shutdown. This case is handled by setting INP_DROPPED, to
substitute for using a NULL so_pcb to indicate that the connection
has been dropped. This requires the inpcb lock, but not the pcbinfo
lock.
- Unlike all other protocols in the tree, TCP may need to retain access
to the socket after the file descriptor has been closed. Set
SS_PROTOREF in tcp_detach() in order to prevent the socket from being
freed, and add a flag, INP_SOCKREF, so that the TCP code knows whether
or not it needs to free the socket when the connection finally does
close. The typical case where this occurs is if close() is called on
a TCP socket before all sent data in the send socket buffer has been
transmitted or acknowledged. If INP_SOCKREF is found when the
connection is dropped, we release the inpcb, tcpcb, and socket instead
of flagging INP_DROPPED.
- Abort and detach protocol switch methods no longer return failures,
nor attempt to free sockets, as the socket layer does this.
- Annotate the existence of a long-standing race in the TCP timer code,
in which timers are stopped but not drained when the socket is freed,
as waiting for drain may lead to deadlocks, or have to occur in a
context where waiting is not permitted. This race has been handled
by testing to see if the tcpcb pointer in the inpcb is NULL (and vice
versa), which is not normally permitted, but may be true of a inpcb
and tcpcb have been freed. Add a counter to test how often this race
has actually occurred, and a large comment for each instance where
we compare potentially freed memory with NULL. This will have to be
fixed in the near future, but requires is to further address how to
handle the timer shutdown shutdown issue.
- Several TCP calls no longer potentially free the passed inpcb/tcpcb,
so no longer need to return a pointer to indicate whether the argument
passed in is still valid.
- Un-macroize debugging and locking setup for various protocol switch
methods for TCP, as it lead to more obscurity, and as locking becomes
more customized to the methods, offers less benefit.
- Assert copyright on tcp_usrreq.c due to significant modifications that
have been made as part of this work.
These changes significantly modify the memory management and connection
logic of our TCP implementation, and are (as such) High Risk Changes,
