The various protocol implementations are not very consistent about
freeing mbufs in error paths. In general, all protocols must free both
"m" and "control" upon an error, except if PRUS_NOTREADY is specified
(this is only implemented by TCP and unix(4) and requires further work
not handled in this diff), in which case "control" still must be freed.
This diff plugs various leaks in the pru_send implementations.

Distinguish between truly invalid requests and those that fail because

them allows userspace to make more informed decisions about what the

For example. radvd tries to join the all-routers group on every SIGHUP.
This fails, because it's already joined it, but this failure should be

When packet is a SYN packet, we don't need to modify any existing PCB.
Normally SYN arrives on a listening socket, we either create a syncache
entry or generate syncookie, but we don't modify anything with the
listening socket or associated PCB. Thus create a new PCB lookup
mode - rlock if listening. This removes the primary contention point
under SYN flood - the listening socket PCB.
Sidenote: when SYN arrives on a synchronized connection, we still
don't need write access to PCB to send a challenge ACK or just to

After length decisions, we've decided that the if_wg(4) driver and
related work is not yet ready to live in the tree. This driver has
larger security implications than many, and thus will be held to
more scrutiny than other drivers.
Please also see the related message sent to the freebsd-hackers@
and freebsd-arch@ lists by Kyle Evans <kevans@FreeBSD.org> on
2021/03/16, with the subject line "Removing WireGuard Support From Base"
for additional context.
This is the culmination of about a week of work from three developers to
fix a number of functional and security issues. This patch consists of
work done by the following folks:
- Jason A. Donenfeld <Jason@zx2c4.com>
- Matt Dunwoodie <ncon@noconroy.net>
- Kyle Evans <kevans@FreeBSD.org>
Notable changes include:
- Packets are now correctly staged for processing once the handshake has
completed, resulting in less packet loss in the interim.
- Various race conditions have been resolved, particularly w.r.t. socket
and packet lifetime (panics)
- Various tests have been added to assure correct functionality and
tooling conformance
- Many security issues have been addressed
- if_wg now maintains jail-friendly semantics: sockets are created in
the interface's home vnet so that it can act as the sole network
connection for a jail
- if_wg no longer fails to remove peer allowed-ips of 0.0.0.0/0
- if_wg now exports via ioctl a format that is future proof and
complete. It is additionally supported by the upstream
wireguard-tools (which we plan to merge in to base soon)
- if_wg now conforms to the WireGuard protocol and is more closely
aligned with security auditing guidelines
Note that the driver has been rebased away from using iflib. iflib
poses a number of challenges for a cloned device trying to operate in a
vnet that are non-trivial to solve and adds complexity to the
implementation for little gain.
The crypto implementation that was previously added to the tree was a
super complex integration of what previously appeared in an old out of
tree Linux module, which has been reduced to crypto.c containing simple
boring reference implementations. This is part of a near-to-mid term
goal to work with FreeBSD kernel crypto folks and take advantage of or
improve accelerated crypto already offered elsewhere.
There's additional test suite effort underway out-of-tree taking
advantage of the aforementioned jail-friendly semantics to test a number
of real-world topologies, based on netns.sh.
Also note that this is still a work in progress; work going further will
be much smaller in nature.

Loopback teardown order is `SI_SUB_INIT_IF`, which happens after `SI_SUB_PROTO_DOMAIN` (route table teardown).
Thus, any route table operations are too late to schedule.
As the intent of the vnet teardown procedures to minimise the amount of effort by doing global cleanups instead of per-interface ones, address this by adding a relatively light-weight routing table cleanup function, `rib_flush_routes()`.
It removes all remaining routes from the routing table and schedules the deletion, which will happen later, when `rtables_destroy()` waits for the current epoch to finish.

Current code marks loopback routes existence with IFA_RTSELF and
"prefix" p2p routes with IFA_ROUTE.
For historic reasons, we fill in ifa_dstaddr for loopback interfaces.
To avoid installing the same route twice, we preemptively set
IFA_RTSELF when adding "prefix" route for loopback.
However, the teardown part doesn't have this hack, so we try to
remove the same route twice.
Fix this by checking if ifa_dstaddr is different from the ifa_addr

rtinit[1]() is a function used to add or remove interface address prefix routes,
similar to ifa_maintain_loopback_route().
It was intended to be family-agnostic. There is a problem with this approach
in reality.
1) IPv6 code does not use it for the ifa routes. There is a separate layer,
nd6_prelist_(), providing interface for maintaining interface routes. Its part,
responsible for the actual route table interaction, mimics rtenty() code.
2) rtinit tries to combine multiple actions in the same function: constructing
proper route attributes and handling iterations over multiple fibs, for the
non-zero net.add_addr_allfibs use case. It notably increases the code complexity.
3) dstaddr handling. flags parameter re-uses RTF_ flags. As there is no special flag
for p2p connections, host routes and p2p routes are handled in the same way.
Additionally, mapping IFA flags to RTF flags makes the interface pretty messy.
It make rtinit() to clash with ifa_mainain_loopback_route() for IPV4 interface
aliases.
4) rtinit() is the last customer passing non-masked prefixes to rib_action(),
complicating rib_action() implementation.
5) rtinit() coupled ifa announce/withdrawal notifications, producing "false positive"
ifa messages in certain corner cases.
To address all these points, the following has been done:
* rtinit() has been split into multiple functions:
- Route attribute construction were moved to the per-address-family functions,
dealing with (2), (3) and (4).
- funnction providing net.add_addr_allfibs handling and route rtsock notificaions
is the new routing table inteface.
- rtsock ifa notificaion has been moved out as well. resulting set of funcion are only
responsible for the actual route notifications.
Side effects:
* /32 alias does not result in interface routes (/32 route and "host" route)
* RTF_PINNED is now set for IPv6 prefixes corresponding to the interface addresses

Currently we create link-local route by creating an always-on IPv6 prefix

Second, when creating and removing link-local alias we lose fe80::/64 prefix
from the routing table.

In order to efficiently serve web traffic on a NUMA
machine, one must avoid as many NUMA domain crossings as
possible. With SO_REUSEPORT_LB, a number of workers can share a
listen socket. However, even if a worker sets affinity to a core
or set of cores on a NUMA domain, it will receive connections
associated with all NUMA domains in the system. This will lead to
cross-domain traffic when the server writes to the socket or
calls sendfile(), and memory is allocated on the server's local
NUMA node, but transmitted on the NUMA node associated with the
TCP connection. Similarly, when the server reads from the socket,
he will likely be reading memory allocated on the NUMA domain
associated with the TCP connection.
This change provides a new socket ioctl, TCP_REUSPORT_LB_NUMA. A
server can now tell the kernel to filter traffic so that only
incoming connections associated with the desired NUMA domain are
given to the server. (Of course, in the case where there are no
servers sharing the listen socket on some domain, then as a
fallback, traffic will be hashed as normal to all servers sharing
the listen socket regardless of domain). This allows a server to
deal only with traffic that is local to its NUMA domain, and
avoids cross-domain traffic in most cases.
This patch, and a corresponding small patch to nginx to use
TCP_REUSPORT_LB_NUMA allows us to serve 190Gb/s of kTLS encrypted

When a user creates a TCP socket and tries to connect to the socket without
explicitly binding the socket to a local address, the connect call
implicitly chooses an appropriate local port. When evaluating candidate
local ports, the algorithm checks for conflicts with existing ports by
doing a lookup in the connection hash table.
In this circumstance, both the IPv4 and IPv6 code look for exact matches
in the hash table. However, the IPv4 code goes a step further and checks
whether the proposed 4-tuple will match wildcard (e.g. TCP "listen")
entries. The IPv6 code has no such check.
The missing wildcard check can cause problems when connecting to a local
server. It is possible that the algorithm will choose the same value for
the local port as the foreign port uses. This results in a connection with
identical source and destination addresses and ports. Changing the IPv6
code to align with the IPv4 code's behavior fixes this problem.

This lets a VXLAN pseudo-interface take advantage of hardware checksumming (tx
and rx), TSO, and RSS if the NIC is capable of performing these operations on
inner VXLAN traffic.
A VXLAN interface inherits the capabilities of its vxlandev interface if one is
specified or of the interface that hosts the vxlanlocal address. If other
interfaces will carry traffic for that VXLAN then they must have the same
hardware capabilities.
On transmit, if_vxlan verifies that the outbound interface has the required
capabilities and then translates the CSUM_ flags to their inner equivalents.
This tells the hardware ifnet that it needs to operate on the inner frame and
not the outer VXLAN headers.
An event is generated when a VXLAN ifnet starts. This allows hardware drivers to
configure their devices to expect VXLAN traffic on the specified incoming port.
On receive, the hardware does RSS and checksum verification on the inner frame.
if_vxlan now does a direct netisr dispatch to take full advantage of RSS. It is
not very clear why it didn't do this already.
Future work:
Rx: it should be possible to avoid the first trip up the protocol stack to get
the frame to if_vxlan just so it can decapsulate and requeue for a second trip
up the stack. The hardware NIC driver could directly call an if_vxlan receive
routine for VXLAN traffic instead.
Rx: LRO. depends on what happens with the previous item. There will have to to
be a mechanism to indicate that it's time for if_vxlan to flush its LRO state.

This will be used by some upcoming changes to if_vxlan(4). RFC 7348 (VXLAN)
says that the UDP checksum "SHOULD be transmitted as zero. When a packet is
received with a UDP checksum of zero, it MUST be accepted for decapsulation."
But the original IPv6 RFCs did not allow zero UDP checksum. RFC 6935 attempts
to resolve this.
