The kernel will reject very large tables to avoid resource exhaustion
attacks. Some users run into this limit with legitimate table
configurations.
The error message in this case was not very clear:
pf.conf:1: cannot define table nets: Invalid argument
pfctl: Syntax error in config file: pf rules not loaded
If a table definition fails we now check the request_maxcount sysctl,
and if we've tried to create more than that point the user at
net.pf.request_maxcount:
pf.conf:1: cannot define table nets: too many elements.
Consider increasing net.pf.request_maxcount.

2^32 bps or greater to be used. Prior to this, bandwidth parameters
would simply wrap at the 2^32 boundary. The computations in the HFSC
scheduler and token bucket regulator have been modified to operate
correctly up to at least 100 Gbps. No other algorithms have been
examined or modified for correct operation above 2^32 bps (some may
have existing computation resolution or overflow issues at rates below
that threshold). pfctl(8) will now limit non-HFSC bandwidth
parameters to 2^32 - 1 before passing them to the kernel.
The extensions to the pf(4) ioctl interface have been made in a
backwards-compatible way by versioning affected data structures,
supporting all versions in the kernel, and implementing macros that
will cause existing code that consumes that interface to use version 0
without source modifications. If version 0 consumers of the interface
are used against a new kernel that has had bandwidth parameters of
2^32 or greater configured by updated tools, such bandwidth parameters
will be reported as 2^32 - 1 bps by those old consumers.
All in-tree consumers of the pf(4) interface have been updated. To
update out-of-tree consumers to the latest version of the interface,
define PFIOC_USE_LATEST ahead of any includes and use the code of
pfctl(8) as a guide for the ioctls of interest.

Normally pf rules are expected to do one of two things: pass the traffic or
block it. Blocking can be silent - "drop", or loud - "return", "return-rst",
"return-icmp". Yet there is a 3rd category of traffic passing through pf:
Packets matching a "pass" rule but when applying the rule fails. This happens
when redirection table is empty or when src node or state creation fails. Such
rules always fail silently without notifying the sender.
Allow users to configure this behaviour too, so that pf returns an error packet
in these cases.

Mainly focus on files that use BSD 2-Clause license, however the tool I
was using misidentified many licenses so this was mostly a manual - error
prone - task.
The Software Package Data Exchange (SPDX) group provides a specification
to make it easier for automated tools to detect and summarize well known
opensource licenses. We are gradually adopting the specification, noting
that the tags are considered only advisory and do not, in any way,
superceed or replace the license texts.
No functional change intended.
The route_host parsing code set the interface name, but only for the first
node_host in the list. If that one happened to be the inet6 address and the
rule wanted an inet address it'd get removed by remove_invalid_hosts() later
on, and we'd have no interface name.
We must set the interface name for all node_host entries in the list, not just
the first one.

The tag fastroute came from ipf and was removed in OpenBSD in 2011. The code
allows to skip the in pfil hooks and completely removes the out pfil invoke,
albeit looking up a route that the IP stack will likely find on its own.
The code between IPv4 and IPv6 is also inconsistent and marked as "XXX"
for years.

TOS value 0 is valid, so use 256 as an invalid value rather than zero.
This allows users to enforce TOS == 0 with pf.

The crop/drop-ovl fragment scrub modes are not very useful and likely to confuse
users into making poor choices.
It's also a fairly large amount of complex code, so just remove the support
altogether.
Users who have 'scrub fragment crop|drop-ovl' in their pf configuration will be
implicitly converted to 'scrub fragment reassemble'.

reside, and move there ipfw(4) and pf(4).
o Move most modified parts of pf out of contrib.
Actual movements:
sys/contrib/pf/net/*.c -> sys/netpfil/pf/
sys/contrib/pf/net/*.h -> sys/net/
contrib/pf/pfctl/*.c -> sbin/pfctl
contrib/pf/pfctl/*.h -> sbin/pfctl
contrib/pf/pfctl/pfctl.8 -> sbin/pfctl
contrib/pf/pfctl/*.4 -> share/man/man4
contrib/pf/pfctl/*.5 -> share/man/man5
sys/netinet/ipfw -> sys/netpfil/ipfw
The arguable movement is pf/net/*.h -> sys/net. There are
future plans to refactor pf includes, so I decided not to
break things twice.
Not modified bits of pf left in contrib: authpf, ftp-proxy,
tftp-proxy, pflogd.
The ipfw(4) movement is planned to be merged to stable/9,
to make head and stable match.
