When large SPDs are used, we face two problems:
- too many CPU cycles are spent during the linear searches in the SPD
for each packet
- too much contention on multi socket systems, since we use a single
shared lock.
Main changes:
- added the sysctl tree 'net.key.spdcache' to control the SPD cache
(disabled by default).
- cache the sp indexes that are used to perform SP lookups.
- use a range of dedicated mutexes to protect the cache lines.

The TCP Blackbox Recorder allows you to capture events on a TCP connection
in a ring buffer. It stores metadata with the event. It optionally stores
the TCP header associated with an event (if the event is associated with a
packet) and also optionally stores information on the sockets.
It supports setting a log ID on a TCP connection and using this to correlate
multiple connections that share a common log ID.
You can log connections in different modes. If you are doing a coordinated
test with a particular connection, you may tell the system to put it in
mode 4 (continuous dump). Or, if you just want to monitor for errors, you
can put it in mode 1 (ring buffer) and dump all the ring buffers associated
with the connection ID when we receive an error signal for that connection
ID. You can set a default mode that will be applied to a particular ratio
of incoming connections. You can also manually set a mode using a socket
option.
This commit includes only basic probes. rrs@ has added quite an abundance
of probes in his TCP development work. He plans to commit those soon.
There are user-space programs which we plan to commit as ports. These read
the data from the log device and output pcapng files, and then let you
analyze the data (and metadata) in the pcapng files.

Violators may define _WANT_SOCKET and _WANT_UNPCB respectively and

o Separate fields of struct socket that belong to listening from
fields that belong to normal dataflow, and unionize them. This
shrinks the structure a bit.
- Take out selinfo's from the socket buffers into the socket. The
first reason is to support braindamaged scenario when a socket is
added to kevent(2) and then listen(2) is cast on it. The second
reason is that there is future plan to make socket buffers pluggable,
so that for a dataflow socket a socket buffer can be changed, and
in this case we also want to keep same selinfos through the lifetime
of a socket.
- Remove struct struct so_accf. Since now listening stuff no longer
affects struct socket size, just move its fields into listening part
of the union.
- Provide sol_upcall field and enforce that so_upcall_set() may be called
only on a dataflow socket, which has buffers, and for listening sockets
provide solisten_upcall_set().
o Remove ACCEPT_LOCK() global.
- Add a mutex to socket, to be used instead of socket buffer lock to lock
fields of struct socket that don't belong to a socket buffer.
- Allow to acquire two socket locks, but the first one must belong to a
listening socket.
- Make soref()/sorele() to use atomic(9). This allows in some situations
to do soref() without owning socket lock. There is place for improvement
here, it is possible to make sorele() also to lock optionally.
- Most protocols aren't touched by this change, except UNIX local sockets.
See below for more information.
o Reduce copy-and-paste in kernel modules that accept connections from
listening sockets: provide function solisten_dequeue(), and use it in
the following modules: ctl(4), iscsi(4), ng_btsocket(4), ng_ksocket(4),
infiniband, rpc.
o UNIX local sockets.
- Removal of ACCEPT_LOCK() global uncovered several races in the UNIX
local sockets. Most races exist around spawning a new socket, when we
are connecting to a local listening socket. To cover them, we need to
hold locks on both PCBs when spawning a third one. This means holding
them across sonewconn(). This creates a LOR between pcb locks and
unp_list_lock.
- To fix the new LOR, abandon the global unp_list_lock in favor of global
unp_link_lock. Indeed, separating these two locks didn't provide us any
extra parralelism in the UNIX sockets.
- Now call into uipc_attach() may happen with unp_link_lock hold if, we
are accepting, or without unp_link_lock in case if we are just creating
a socket.
- Another problem in UNIX sockets is that uipc_close() basicly did nothing
for a listening socket. The vnode remained opened for connections. This
is fixed by removing vnode in uipc_close(). Maybe the right way would be
to do it for all sockets (not only listening), simply move the vnode
teardown from uipc_detach() to uipc_close()?

This is a painful change, but it is needed. On the one hand, we avoid
modifying them, and this slows down some ideas, on the other hand we still
eventually modify them and tools like netstat(1) never work on next version of
FreeBSD. We maintain a ton of spares in them, and we already got some ifdef
hell at the end of tcpcb.
Details:
- Hide struct inpcb, struct tcpcb under _KERNEL || _WANT_FOO.
- Make struct xinpcb, struct xtcpcb pure API structures, not including
kernel structures inpcb and tcpcb inside. Export into these structures
the fields from inpcb and tcpcb that are known to be used, and put there
a ton of spare space.
- Make kernel and userland utilities compilable after these changes.
- Bump __FreeBSD_version.

Small summary
-------------
o Almost all IPsec releated code was moved into sys/netipsec.
o New kernel modules added: ipsec.ko and tcpmd5.ko. New kernel
option IPSEC_SUPPORT added. It enables support for loading
and unloading of ipsec.ko and tcpmd5.ko kernel modules.
o IPSEC_NAT_T option was removed. Now NAT-T support is enabled by
default. The UDP_ENCAP_ESPINUDP_NON_IKE encapsulation type
support was removed. Added TCP/UDP checksum handling for
inbound packets that were decapsulated by transport mode SAs.
setkey(8) modified to show run-time NAT-T configuration of SA.
o New network pseudo interface if_ipsec(4) added. For now it is
build as part of ipsec.ko module (or with IPSEC kernel).
It implements IPsec virtual tunnels to create route-based VPNs.
o The network stack now invokes IPsec functions using special
methods. The only one header file <netipsec/ipsec_support.h>
should be included to declare all the needed things to work
with IPsec.
o All IPsec protocols handlers (ESP/AH/IPCOMP protosw) were removed.
Now these protocols are handled directly via IPsec methods.
o TCP_SIGNATURE support was reworked to be more close to RFC.
o PF_KEY SADB was reworked:
- now all security associations stored in the single SPI namespace,
and all SAs MUST have unique SPI.
- several hash tables added to speed up lookups in SADB.
- SADB now uses rmlock to protect access, and concurrent threads
can do SA lookups in the same time.
- many PF_KEY message handlers were reworked to reflect changes
in SADB.
- SADB_UPDATE message was extended to support new PF_KEY headers:
SADB_X_EXT_NEW_ADDRESS_SRC and SADB_X_EXT_NEW_ADDRESS_DST. They
can be used by IKE daemon to change SA addresses.
o ipsecrequest and secpolicy structures were cardinally changed to
avoid locking protection for ipsecrequest. Now we support
only limited number (4) of bundled SAs, but they are supported
for both INET and INET6.
o INPCB security policy cache was introduced. Each PCB now caches
used security policies to avoid SP lookup for each packet.
o For inbound security policies added the mode, when the kernel does
check for full history of applied IPsec transforms.
o References counting rules for security policies and security
associations were changed. The proper SA locking added into xform
code.
o xform code was also changed. Now it is possible to unregister xforms.
tdb_xxx structures were changed and renamed to reflect changes in
SADB/SPDB, and changed rules for locking and refcounting.

- Trim valid pages from the end of the request.
- Cycle through the request and substitute to bogus_page all valid

- After I/O launched (pager copies array of pages into buf(9), it
is important to restore proper page pointers with help vm_page_lookup().

up to now.
The new sendfile is the code that Netflix uses to send their multiple tens
of gigabits of data per second. The new implementation features asynchronous
I/O, when I/O operations are launched, but not awaited to be complete. An
explanation of why such behavior is beneficial compared to old one is
going to be too long for a commit message, so we will skip it here.
Additional features of new syscall are extra flags, which provide an
application more control over data sent. The SF_NOCACHE flag tells
kernel that data shouldn't be cached after it was sent. The SF_READAHEAD()
macro allows to specify readahead size in pages.
The new syscalls is a drop in replacement. No modifications are required
to applications. One can take nginx binary for stable/10 and run it
successfully on head. Although SF_NODISKIO lost its original sense, as now
sendfile doesn't block, and now means something completely different (tm),
using the new sendfile the old way is absolutely safe.

This is so that 'make depend' is not a required build step in these
files.
DPSRCS is overall unneeded. DPSRCS already contains SRCS, so anything
which can safely be in SRCS should be. DPSRCS is mostly just a way to
generate files that should not be linked into the final PROG/LIB. For
headers and grammars it is safe for them to be in SRCS since they will
be excluded during linking and installation.
The only remaining uses of DPSRCS are for generating .c or .o files that
must be built before 'make depend' can run 'mkdep' on the SRCS c files
list. A semi-proper example is in tests/sys/kern/acct/Makefile where a
checked-in .c file has an #include on a generated .c file. The
generated .c file should not be linked into the final PROG though since
it is #include'd. The more proper way here is just to build/link it in
though without DPSRCS. Another example is in sys/modules/linux/Makefile
where a shell script runs to parse a DPSRCS .o file that should not be
linked into the module. Beyond those, the need for DPSRCS is largely
unneeded, redundant, and forces 'make depend' to be ran. Generally,
these Makefiles should avoid the need for DPSRCS and define proper
dependencies for their files as well.
An example of an improper usage and why this matters is in usr.bin/netstat.
nl_defs.h was only in DPSRCS and so was not generated during 'make all',
but only during 'make depend'. The files including it lacked proper
depenencies on it, which forced running 'make depend' to workaround that
bug. The 'make depend' target should mostly be used for incremental build
help, not to produce a working build. This specific example was broken in
the meta build until r287905 since it does not run 'make depend'.
The gnu/lib/libreadline/readline case is fine since bsd.lib.mk has 'OBJS:
SRCS:M*.h' when there is no .depend file.
