The module works together with ipfw(4) and implemented as its external
action module.
Stateless NAT64 registers external action with name nat64stl. This
keyword should be used to create NAT64 instance and to address this
instance in rules. Stateless NAT64 uses two lookup tables with mapped
IPv4->IPv6 and IPv6->IPv4 addresses to perform translation.
A configuration of instance should looks like this:
1. Create lookup tables:
# ipfw table T46 create type addr valtype ipv6
# ipfw table T64 create type addr valtype ipv4
2. Fill T46 and T64 tables.
3. Add rule to allow neighbor solicitation and advertisement:
# ipfw add allow icmp6 from any to any icmp6types 135,136
4. Create NAT64 instance:
# ipfw nat64stl NAT create table4 T46 table6 T64
5. Add rules that matches the traffic:
# ipfw add nat64stl NAT ip from any to table(T46)
# ipfw add nat64stl NAT ip from table(T64) to 64:ff9b::/96
6. Configure DNS64 for IPv6 clients and add route to 64:ff9b::/96
via NAT64 host.
Stateful NAT64 registers external action with name nat64lsn. The only
one option required to create nat64lsn instance - prefix4. It defines
the pool of IPv4 addresses used for translation.

Now zero value of arg1 used to specify "tablearg", use the old "tablearg"
value for "nat global". Introduce new macro IP_FW_NAT44_GLOBAL to replace
hardcoded magic number to specify "nat global". Also replace 65535 magic
number with corresponding macro. Fix typo in comments.

Zero fib is correct value and it conflicts with IP_FW_TARG.
Use bprint_uint_arg() only when opcode contains IP_FW_TARG,
otherwise just print numeric value with cleared high-order bit.

so when user did `ipfw table N flush` it always worked, but now
when table N doesn't exist the kernel returns ESRCH error.
This isn't fatal error for flush and destroy commands. Do not
call err(3) when errno is equal to ESRCH. Also warn only when
quiet mode isn't enabled. This fixes a regression in behavior,
when old rules are loaded from file.
Also use correct value for switch in the table_swap().

The keep-state, limit and check-state now will have additional argument
flowname. This flowname will be assigned to dynamic rule by keep-state
or limit opcode. And then can be matched by check-state opcode or
O_PROBE_STATE internal opcode. To reduce possible breakage and to maximize
compatibility with old rulesets default flowname introduced.
It will be assigned to the rules when user has omitted state name in
keep-state and check-state opcodes. Also if name is ambiguous (can be
evaluated as rule opcode) it will be replaced to default.

as defined in RFC 6296. The module works together with ipfw(4) and
implemented as its external action module. When it is loaded, it registers
as eaction and can be used in rules. The usage pattern is similar to
ipfw_nat(4). All matched by rule traffic goes to the NPT module.

Implementing AQM in FreeBSD

Overview
Recent years have seen a resurgence of interest in better managing
the depth of bottleneck queues in routers, switches and other places
that get congested. Solutions include transport protocol enhancements
at the end-hosts (such as delay-based or hybrid congestion control
schemes) and active queue management (AQM) schemes applied within
bottleneck queues.
The notion of AQM has been around since at least the late 1990s
(e.g. RFC 2309). In recent years the proliferation of oversized
buffers in all sorts of network devices (aka bufferbloat) has
stimulated keen community interest in four new AQM schemes -- CoDel,
FQ-CoDel, PIE and FQ-PIE.
The IETF AQM working group is looking to document these schemes,
and independent implementations are a corner-stone of the IETF's
process for confirming the clarity of publicly available protocol
descriptions. While significant development work on all three schemes
has occured in the Linux kernel, there is very little in FreeBSD.
Project Goals
This project began in late 2015, and aims to design and implement
functionally-correct versions of CoDel, FQ-CoDel, PIE and FQ_PIE
in FreeBSD (with code BSD-licensed as much as practical). We have
chosen to do this as extensions to FreeBSD's ipfw/dummynet firewall
and traffic shaper. Implementation of these AQM schemes in FreeBSD
will:
* Demonstrate whether the publicly available documentation is
sufficient to enable independent, functionally equivalent implementations
* Provide a broader suite of AQM options for sections the networking
community that rely on FreeBSD platforms
Program Members:
* Rasool Al Saadi (developer)
* Grenville Armitage (project lead)

objects with the same name in different sets.
Add optional manage_sets() callback to objects rewriting framework.
It is intended to implement handler for moving and swapping named
object's sets. Add ipfw_obj_manage_sets() function that implements
generic sets handler. Use new callback to implement sets support for
lookup tables.
External actions objects are global and they don't support sets.
Modify eaction_findbyname() to reflect this.
ipfw(8) now may fail to move rules or sets, because some named objects
in target set may have conflicting names.
Note that ipfw_obj_ntlv type was changed, but since lookup tables
actually didn't support sets, this change is harmless.

It allows implementing loadable kernel modules with new actions and
without needing to modify kernel headers and ipfw(8). The module
registers its action handler and keyword string, that will be used
as action name. Using generic syntax user can add rules with this
action. Also ipfw(8) can be easily modified to extend basic syntax
for external actions, that become a part base system.
Sample modules will coming soon.

Currently we have different table key types which can easily interfere
with each other (numbers and IPv4 address, interface names and hostnames,
flows and hostnames/addresses).
This conflicts are solved by [auto-]creating _typed_ tables, so after
table is created, only keys of given type can be inserted to that table.
ipfw(8) consults with kernel about key/value type for particular table so
it knows key/value interpretation.
However, we have 2 cases (adding entries to non-existing table and
parsing configuration file via `ipfw -n`) when kernel is unable to
provide us table info we need. Fix the latter case by partially importing
old `table_fill_xentry()` parse function responsible for guessing key type.

to obtain IPv4 next hop address in tablearg case.
Add `fwd tablearg' support for IPv6. ipfw(8) uses INADDR_ANY as next hop
address in O_FORWARD_IP opcode for specifying tablearg case. For IPv6 we
still use this opcode, but when packet identified as IPv6 packet, we
obtain next hop address from dedicated field nh6 in struct table_value.
Replace hopstore field in struct ip_fw_args with anonymous union and add
hopstore6 field. Use this field to copy tablearg value for IPv6.
Replace spare1 field in struct table_value with zoneid. Use it to keep
scope zone id for link-local IPv6 addresses. Since spare1 was used
internally, replace spare0 array with two variables spare0 and spare1.
Use getaddrinfo(3)/getnameinfo(3) functions for parsing and formatting
IPv6 addresses in table_value. Use zoneid field in struct table_value
to store sin6_scope_id value.
Since the kernel still uses embedded scope zone id to represent
link-local addresses, convert next_hop6 address into this form before
return from pfil processing. This also fixes in6_localip() check
for link-local addresses.
