the routing table. Move all usage and references in the tcp stack
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
regard to the routing table.

the MAC label referenced from 'struct socket' in the IPv4 and
IPv6-based protocols. This permits MAC labels to be checked during
network delivery operations without dereferencing inp->inp_socket
to get to so->so_label, which will eventually avoid our having to
grab the socket lock during delivery at the network layer.
This change introduces 'struct inpcb' as a labeled object to the
MAC Framework, along with the normal circus of entry points:
initialization, creation from socket, destruction, as well as a
delivery access control check.
For most policies, the inpcb label will simply be a cache of the
socket label, so a new protocol switch method is introduced,
pr_sosetlabel() to notify protocols that the socket layer label
has been updated so that the cache can be updated while holding
appropriate locks. Most protocols implement this using
pru_sosetlabel_null(), but IPv4/IPv6 protocols using inpcbs use
the the worker function in_pcbsosetlabel(), which calls into the
MAC Framework to perform a cache update.
Biba, LOMAC, and MLS implement these entry points, as do the stub
policy, and test policy.

The gre(4) driver does not use INET6, nor is it specified for IPv6. The
tunnel_status() function in ifconfig(8) is somewhat overzealous and assumes
that all tunnel interfaces speak KAME ifioctls.
This fix follows the path of least resistance, by teaching gre(4) about
the two KAME ifioctls concerned.

in various kernel objects to represent security data, we embed a
(struct label *) pointer, which now references labels allocated using
a UMA zone (mac_label.c). This allows the size and shape of struct
label to be varied without changing the size and shape of these kernel
objects, which become part of the frozen ABI with 5-STABLE. This opens
the door for boot-time selection of the number of label slots, and hence
changes to the bound on the number of simultaneous labeled policies
at boot-time instead of compile-time. This also makes it easier to
embed label references in new objects as required for locking/caching
with fine-grained network stack locking, such as inpcb structures.
This change also moves us further in the direction of hiding the
structure of kernel objects from MAC policy modules, not to mention
dramatically reducing the number of '&' symbols appearing in both the
MAC Framework and MAC policy modules, and improving readability.
While this results in minimal performance change with MAC enabled, it
will observably shrink the size of a number of critical kernel data
structures for the !MAC case, and should have a small (but measurable)
performance benefit (i.e., struct vnode, struct socket) do to memory
conservation and reduced cost of zeroing memory.
NOTE: Users of MAC must recompile their kernel and all MAC modules as a
result of this change. Because this is an API change, third party
MAC modules will also need to be updated to make less use of the '&'
symbol.

eliminates instances of recursive locking and also closes races
where the lock on the entry had to be dropped prior to calling

vanish when an mbuf chain passes through an interface. Persistent tags
are used, for example, by MAC labels.
Add an m_tag_delete_nonpersistent function to strip non-persistent tags
from mbufs and use it to strip such tags from packets as they pass through
the loopback interface and when turned around by icmp. This fixes problems
with "tag leakage".

may be returned; this was never used and added unwarranted complexity
for locking.
o minor style cleanups to routing code (e.g. ansi-fy function decls)
o remove the logic to bump the refcnt on the parent of cloned routes,

o convert some timeouts to MPSAFE callouts
Notes:
1. rt_mtx in struct rtentry is guarded by #ifdef _KERNEL as user-level
applications cannot/do-no know about mutex's. Doing this requires
that the mutex be the last element in the structure. A better solution
is to introduce an externalized version of struct rtentry but this is
a major task because of the intertwining of rtentry and other data
structures that are visible to user applications.
2. There are known LOR's that are expected to go away with forthcoming
work to eliminate many held references. If not these will be resolved
prior to release.
3. ATM changes are untested.

any queued packets for the isr, process those packets before the newly
submitted packet, maintaining ordering of all packets being delivered
to the netisr. Remove the bypass counter since we don't bypass anymore.
Leave the comment about possible problems and options since later
performance optimization may change the strategy for addressing ordering
problems here.
Specifically, this maintains the strong isr ordering guarantee; additional
parallelism and lower latency may be possible by moving to weaker
guarantees (per-interface, for example). We will probably at some point
also want to remove the one instance netisr dispatch limit currently
enforced by a mutex, but it's not clear that's 100% safe yet, even in
the netperf branch.
