When epoch(9) was introduced to network stack, it was basically
dropped in place of existing locking, which was mutexes and
rwlocks. For the sake of performance mutex covered areas were
as small as possible, so became epoch covered areas.
However, epoch doesn't introduce any contention, it just delays
memory reclaim. So, there is no point to minimise epoch covered
areas in sense of performance. Meanwhile entering/exiting epoch
also has non-zero CPU usage, so doing this less often is a win.
Not the least is also code maintainability. In the new paradigm
we can assume that at any stage of processing a packet, we are
inside network epoch. This makes coding both input and output
path way easier.
On output path we already enter epoch quite early - in the
ip_output(), in the ip6_output().
This patch does the same for the input path. All ISR processing,
network related callouts, other ways of packet injection to the
network stack shall be performed in net_epoch. Any leaf function
that walks network configuration now asserts epoch.
Tricky part is configuration code paths - ioctls, sysctls. They
also call into leaf functions, so some need to be changed.
This patch would introduce more epoch recursions (see EPOCH_TRACE)
than we had before. They will be cleaned up separately, as several
of them aren't trivial. Note, that unlike a lock recursion the
epoch recursion is safe and just wastes a bit of resources.

Currently rinit1() and its IPv6 counterpart
nd6_prefix_onlink_rtrequest() uses dummy null_sdl gateway address
during route insertion and change it afterwards. This behaviour
brings complications to the routing stack and the users of its
upcoming notification system.
This change fixes both rinit1() and nd6_prefix_onlink_rtrequest()
by filling in proper gateway in the beginning. It does not change any
of the userland notifications as in both cases, they happen after
the insertion and fixup process (rt_newaddrmsg_fib() and nd6_rtmsg()).

Currently such routes are added with a link-level IFA, which is
plain wrong. Only after the insertion they get fixed by the special
link_rtrequest() ifa handler. This behaviour complicates routing code
and makes ifa selection more complex.
Streamline this process by explicitly moving link_rtrequest() logic
to the pre-insertion rt_getifa_fib() ifa selector. Avoid calling all
this logic in the loopback route case by explicitly specifying
proper rt_ifa inside the ifa_maintain_loopback_route().§

- Remove macros that covertly create epoch_tracker on thread stack. Such
macros a quite unsafe, e.g. will produce a buggy code if same macro is
used in embedded scopes. Explicitly declare epoch_tracker always.
- Unmask interface list IFNET_RLOCK_NOSLEEP(), interface address list
IF_ADDR_RLOCK() and interface AF specific data IF_AFDATA_RLOCK() read
locking macros to what they actually are - the net_epoch.
Keeping them as is is very misleading. They all are named FOO_RLOCK(),
while they no longer have lock semantics. Now they allow recursion and
what's more important they now no longer guarantee protection against
their companion WLOCK macros.
Note: INP_HASH_RLOCK() has same problems, but not touched by this commit.
This is non functional mechanical change. The only functionally changed
functions are ni6_addrs() and ni6_store_addrs(), where we no longer enter
epoch recursively.

- Add tracker argument to preemptible epochs
- Inline epoch read path in kernel and tied modules
- Change in_epoch to take an epoch as argument
- Simplify tfb_tcp_do_segment to not take a ti_locked argument,
there's no longer any benefit to dropping the pcbinfo lock
and trying to do so just adds an error prone branchfest to
these functions
- Remove cases of same function recursion on the epoch as
recursing is no longer free.
- Remove the the TAILQ_ENTRY and epoch_section from struct
thread as the tracker field is now stack or heap allocated
as appropriate.

Increment the route table generation count after modifying a
route. This signals back to TCP connections that they need to
update their L2 caches as the gateway for their route may have
changed. This is a heavier hammer than is needed, strictly
speaking, but route changes will be unlikely enough that the
performance effects of invalidating all connection route caches
should be negligible.

If a route is modified in a way that changes the route's source
address (i.e. the address used to access the gateway), then a
reference on the ifaddr representing the old source address will
be leaked if the address type does not have an ifa_rtrequest
method defined. Plug the leak by releasing the reference in
all cases.

than removing the network interfaces first. This change is rather larger
and convoluted as the ordering requirements cannot be separated.
Move the pfil(9) framework to SI_SUB_PROTO_PFIL, move Firewalls and
related modules to their own SI_SUB_PROTO_FIREWALL.
Move initialization of "physical" interfaces to SI_SUB_DRIVERS,
move virtual (cloned) interfaces to SI_SUB_PSEUDO.
Move Multicast to SI_SUB_PROTO_MC.
Re-work parts of multicast initialisation and teardown, not taking the
huge amount of memory into account if used as a module yet.
For interface teardown we try to do as many of them as we can on
SI_SUB_INIT_IF, but for some this makes no sense, e.g., when tunnelling
over a higher layer protocol such as IP. In that case the interface
has to go along (or before) the higher layer protocol is shutdown.
Kernel hhooks need to go last on teardown as they may be used at various
higher layers and we cannot remove them before we cleaned up the higher
layers.
For interface teardown there are multiple paths:
(a) a cloned interface is destroyed (inside a VIMAGE or in the base system),
(b) any interface is moved from a virtual network stack to a different
network stack ("vmove"), or (c) a virtual network stack is being shut down.
All code paths go through if_detach_internal() where we, depending on the
vmove flag or the vnet state, make a decision on how much to shut down;
in case we are destroying a VNET the individual protocol layers will
cleanup their own parts thus we cannot do so again for each interface as
we end up with, e.g., double-frees, destroying locks twice or acquiring
already destroyed locks.
When calling into protocol cleanups we equally have to tell them
whether they need to detach upper layer protocols ("ulp") or not
(e.g., in6_ifdetach()).
Provide or enahnce helper functions to do proper cleanup at a protocol
rather than at an interface level.

There are number of radix consumers in kernel land (pf,ipfw,nfs,route)
with different requirements. In fact, first 3 don't have _any_ requirements
and first 2 does not use radix locking. On the other hand, routing
structure do have these requirements (rnh_gen, multipath, custom
to-be-added control plane functions, different locking).
Additionally, radix should not known anything about its consumers internals.
So, radix code now uses tiny 'struct radix_head' structure along with
internal 'struct radix_mask_head' instead of 'struct radix_node_head'.
Existing consumers still uses the same 'struct radix_node_head' with
slight modifications: they need to pass pointer to (embedded)
'struct radix_head' to all radix callbacks.
Routing code now uses new 'struct rib_head' with different locking macro:
RADIX_NODE_HEAD prefix was renamed to RIB_ (which stands for routing
information base).
New net/route_var.h header was added to hold routing subsystem internal
data. 'struct rib_head' was placed there. 'struct rtentry' will also
be moved there soon.
Such handler should pass different set of variables, instead
of directly providing 2 locked route entries.
Given that it hasn't been really used since at least 2012, remove
current code.
Will re-add it after finishing most major routing-related changes.

There are control plane functions that require information other than

to retrieve key/mask or gateway (which are sockaddrs and are allocated
separately), it needs to provide sufficient-sized sockaddrs structures
w/ ther pointers saved in passed rt_addrinfo.

1) we don't support RTF_ANNOUNCE ND-proxy for networks and there should
