interface considers that it hits a fatal error, and will not copyout
the request structure back for _IOW and _IOWR ioctls, keeping them
untouched.
The previous implementation of the SIOCGIFDESCR ioctl intends to
feed the buffer length back to userland. However, if we return
an error, the feedback would be defeated and ifconfig(8) would
trap into an infinite loop.
This commit changes SIOCGIFDESCR to set buffer field to NULL to

prevented the link-layer entry from being freed.
In both in.c and in6.c (though that code path seems to be basically dead)
plug a reference leak in case of a pending callout being drained.
In if_ether.c consistently add a reference before resetting the callout
and in case we canceled a pending one remove the reference for that.
In the final case in arptimer, before freeing the expired entry, remove
the reference again and explicitly call callout_stop() to clear the active
flag.
In nd6.c:nd6_free() we are only ever called from the callout function and
thus need to remove the reference there as well before calling into
llentry_free().
In if_llatbl.c when freeing entire tables make sure that in case we cancel
a pending callout to remove the reference as well.

As such RT_LINK_IS_UP() fails for the if_tap interface.
Also, the RT_LINK_IS_UP() needs to bypass all loopback
interfaces because loopback interfaces are considered

This patch fixes the above issues by setting and updating

allow for connection load balancing across interfaces. Currently
the address alias handling method is colliding with the ECMP code.
For example, when two interfaces are configured on the same prefix,
only one prefix route is installed. So connection load balancing
among the available interfaces is not possible.
The other advantage of ECMP is for failover. The issue with the
current code, is that the interface link-state is not reflected
in the route entry. For example, if there are two interfaces on
the same prefix, the cable on one interface is unplugged, new and
existing connections should switch over to the other interface.
This is not done today and packets go into a black hole.
Also, there is a small bug in the kernel where deleting ECMP routes
in the userland will always return an error even though the command
is successfully executed.

or overflow the netisr queue and fall back to the interface
queue so that we can garuantee that the ifnet pointer stays
valid. Formerly we ended up with reference counts <= 0 in
case the netisr had returned ENOBUFS. The idea is to track
any packet in the netisr queue and only change the refount
on edge operations for the fallback interface queue. This
also avoids problems in case the if_snd.ifq_len lies to us.
Also rework refount assertions to make sure they trigger if
we go below 1. Formerly a negative refence count did not

and tested over the past two months in the ipfw3-head branch. This
also happens to be the same code available in the Linux and Windows
ports of ipfw and dummynet.
The major enhancement is a completely restructured version of
dummynet, with support for different packet scheduling algorithms
(loadable at runtime), faster queue/pipe lookup, and a much cleaner
internal architecture and kernel/userland ABI which simplifies
future extensions.
In addition to the existing schedulers (FIFO and WF2Q+), we include
a Deficit Round Robin (DRR or RR for brevity) scheduler, and a new,
very fast version of WF2Q+ called QFQ.
Some test code is also present (in sys/netinet/ipfw/test) that
lets you build and test schedulers in userland.
Also, we have added a compatibility layer that understands requests
from the RELENG_7 and RELENG_8 versions of the /sbin/ipfw binaries,
and replies correctly (at least, it does its best; sometimes you
just cannot tell who sent the request and how to answer).
The compatibility layer should make it possible to MFC this code in a
relatively short time.
Some minor glitches (e.g. handling of ipfw set enable/disable,
and a workaround for a bug in RELENG_7's /sbin/ipfw) will be
fixed with separate commits.
CREDITS:
This work has been partly supported by the ONELAB2 project, and
mostly developed by Riccardo Panicucci and myself.
The code for the qfq scheduler is mostly from Fabio Checconi,
and Marta Carbone and Francesco Magno have helped with testing,
debugging and some bug fixes.
Enhanced process coredump routines.
This brings in the following features:
1) Limit number of cores per process via the %I coredump formatter.
Example:
if corefilename is set to %N.%I.core AND num_cores = 3, then
if a process "rpd" cores, then the corefile will be named
"rpd.0.core", however if it cores again, then the kernel will
generate "rpd.1.core" until we hit the limit of "num_cores".
this is useful to get several corefiles, but also prevent filling
the machine with corefiles.
2) Encode machine hostname in core dump name via %H.
3) Compress coredumps, useful for embedded platforms with limited space.
A sysctl kern.compress_user_cores is made available if turned on.
To enable compressed coredumps, the following config options need to be set:
options COMPRESS_USER_CORES
device zlib # brings in the zlib requirements.
device gzio # brings in the kernel vnode gzip output module.
4) Eventhandlers are fired to indicate coredumps in progress.
5) The imgact sv_coredump routine has grown a flag to pass in more
state, currently this is used only for passing a flag down to compress
the coredump or not.
Note that the gzio facility can be used for generic output of gzip'd
streams via vnodes.

they should not be used by kernel modules, which must instead use the

netisr_maxprot, and export via a sysctl, so that it is available for use

interpretation, where the size of the workstream structure is determined
by the maximum number of protocols compiled into the kernel.
