f187d6dfbf base: remove if_wg(4) and associated utilities, manpage
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.

74ae3f3e33 if_wg: import latest fixup work from the wireguard-freebsd project
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.

7b0d3a3ccf include: Use printf(1) instead of shell loops for header symlinks
Using a shell for loop means we have to spawn a separate install(1)
process for each header that is symlinked. This patch uses printf(1) to
generate an argument list that has been prefixed with the correct number
of ../ and then uses a single install(1) invocation.

This reduces the number of execve() calls during make includes from 2442
(with D27622) to 1382. Running `make symlinks` in include/ now spawns 214
processes instead of 1276 without this patch.

cc7edd258c Add collation version support to querylocale(3).
Provide a way to ask for an opaque version string for a locale_t, so
that potential changes in sort order can be detected.  Similar to
ICU's ucol_getVersion() and Windows' GetNLSVersionEx(), this API is
intended to allow databases to detect when text order-based indexes
might need to be rebuilt.

The CLDR version is extracted from CLDR source data by the Makefile
under tools/tools/locale, written into the machine-generated Makefile
under shared/colldef, passed to localedef -V, and then written into
LC_COLLATE file headers.  The initial version is 34.0.
tools/tools/locale was recently updated to pull down 35.0, but the
output hasn't been committed under share/colldef yet, so that will
provide the first observable change when it happens.  Other versioning
schemes are possible in future, because the format is unspecified.

9e5787d228 Merge OpenZFS support in to HEAD.
The primary benefit is maintaining a completely shared
code base with the community allowing FreeBSD to receive
new features sooner and with less effort.

I would advise against doing 'zpool upgrade'
or creating indispensable pools using new
features until this change has had a month+
to soak.

Work on merging FreeBSD support in to what was
at the time "ZFS on Linux" began in August 2018.
I first publicly proposed transitioning FreeBSD
to (new) OpenZFS on December 18th, 2018. FreeBSD
support in OpenZFS was finally completed in December
2019. A CFT for downstreaming OpenZFS support in
to FreeBSD was first issued on July 8th. All issues
that were reported have been addressed or, for
a couple of less critical matters there are
pull requests in progress with OpenZFS. iXsystems
has tested and dogfooded extensively internally.
The TrueNAS 12 release is based on OpenZFS with
some additional features that have not yet made
it upstream.

Improvements include:
  project quotas, encrypted datasets,
  allocation classes, vectorized raidz,
  vectorized checksums, various command line
  improvements, zstd compression.

Thanks to those who have helped along the way:
Ryan Moeller, Allan Jude, Zack Welch, and many
others.

472ced39ef Implement a close_range(2) syscall
close_range(min, max, flags) allows for a range of descriptors to be
closed. The Python folk have indicated that they would much prefer this
interface to closefrom(2), as the case may be that they/someone have special
fds dup'd to higher in the range and they can't necessarily closefrom(min)
because they don't want to hit the upper range, but relocating them to lower
isn't necessarily feasible.

sys_closefrom has been rewritten to use kern_close_range() using ~0U to
indicate closing to the end of the range. This was chosen rather than
requiring callers of kern_close_range() to hold FILEDESC_SLOCK across the
call to kern_close_range for simplicity.

The flags argument of close_range(2) is currently unused, so any flags set
is currently EINVAL. It was added to the interface in Linux so that future
flags could be added for, e.g., "halt on first error" and things of this
nature.

This patch is based on a syscall of the same design that is expected to be
merged into Linux.

a666325282 Introduce nexthop objects and new routing KPI.
This is the foundational change for the routing subsytem rearchitecture.
 More details and goals are available in https://reviews.freebsd.org/D24141 .

This patch introduces concept of nexthop objects and new nexthop-based
 routing KPI.

Nexthops are objects, containing all necessary information for performing
 the packet output decision. Output interface, mtu, flags, gw address goes
 there. For most of the cases, these objects will serve the same role as
 the struct rtentry is currently serving.
Typically there will be low tens of such objects for the router even with
 multiple BGP full-views, as these objects will be shared between routing
 entries. This allows to store more information in the nexthop.

New KPI:

struct nhop_object *fib4_lookup(uint32_t fibnum, struct in_addr dst,
  uint32_t scopeid, uint32_t flags, uint32_t flowid);
struct nhop_object *fib6_lookup(uint32_t fibnum, const struct in6_addr *dst6,
  uint32_t scopeid, uint32_t flags, uint32_t flowid);

These 2 function are intended to replace all all flavours of
 <in_|in6_>rtalloc[1]<_ign><_fib>, mpath functions  and the previous
 fib[46]-generation functions.

Upon successful lookup, they return nexthop object which is guaranteed to
 exist within current NET_EPOCH. If longer lifetime is desired, one can
 specify NHR_REF as a flag and get a referenced version of the nexthop.
 Reference semantic closely resembles rtentry one, allowing sed-style conversion.

Additionally, another 2 functions are introduced to support uRPF functionality
 inside variety of our firewalls. Their primary goal is to hide the multipath
 implementation details inside the routing subsystem, greatly simplifying
 firewalls implementation:

int fib4_lookup_urpf(uint32_t fibnum, struct in_addr dst, uint32_t scopeid,
  uint32_t flags, const struct ifnet *src_if);
int fib6_lookup_urpf(uint32_t fibnum, const struct in6_addr *dst6, uint32_t scopeid,
  uint32_t flags, const struct ifnet *src_if);

All functions have a separate scopeid argument, paving way to eliminating IPv6 scope
 embedding and allowing to support IPv4 link-locals in the future.

Structure changes:
 * rtentry gets new 'rt_nhop' pointer, slightly growing the overall size.
 * rib_head gets new 'rnh_preadd' callback pointer, slightly growing overall sz.

Old KPI:
During the transition state old and new KPI will coexists. As there are another 4-5
 decent-sized conversion patches, it will probably take a couple of weeks.
To support both KPIs, fields not required by the new KPI (most of rtentry) has to be
 kept, resulting in the temporary size increase.
Once conversion is finished, rtentry will notably shrink.

132fb3dc99 Add pthread_peekjoin_np(3).
The function allows to peek at the thread exit status and even see
return value, without joining (and thus finally destroying) the target
thread.

b85ea80975 libc: provide fputc_unlocked
Among the same justification as the other stdio _unlocked; in addition to an
inline version in <stdio.h>, we must provide a function in libc as well for
the functionality. This fixes the lang/gcc* builds, which want to use the
symbol from libc.

672e12255d rand(3): Replace implementation with one backed by random(3) algorithm
rand(3)'s standard C API is extremely limiting, but we can do better
than the historical 32-bit state Park-Miller LCG we've shipped since
2001: r73156.

The justification provided at the time for not using random(3) was that
rand_r(3) could not be made to use the same algorithm.  That is still
true.  However, the irrelevance of rand_r(3) is increasingly obvious.
Since that time, POSIX has marked the interface obsolescent.  rand_r(3)
never became part of the standard C library.  If not for API
compatibility reasons, I would just remove rand_r(3) entirely.

So, I do not believe it is a problem for rand_r(3) and rand(3) to
diverge.

The 12 ABI is maintained with compatibility definitions, but this
revision does subtly change the API of rand(3).  The sequences of
pseudorandom numbers produced in programs built against new versions of
libc will differ from programs built against prior versions of libc.
