Usual symptoms are messages like
rn_delete: inconsistent annotation
rn_addmask: mask impossibly already in tree
or inability to flush/delete particular prefix in ipfw table.
Changes:
* Assume 32 bytes as maximum radix key length
* Remove rn_init()
* Statically allocate rn_ones/rn_zeroes
* Make separate mask tree for each "normal" tree instead of system global one
* Remove "optimization" on masks reusage and key zeroying
* Change rn_addmask() arguments to accept tree pointer (no users in base)

- Nuke struct if_data from struct ifaddr.
- In ip_input() do not put a reference on ifaddr, instead update statistics
right now in place and do IN_IFADDR_RUNLOCK(). These removes atomic(9)
for every packet. [1]
- To properly support NET_RT_IFLISTL sysctl used by getifaddrs(3), in
rtsock.c fill if_data fields using counter_u64_fetch().
- Accidentially fix bug in COMPAT_32 version of NET_RT_IFLISTL, which
took if_data not from the ifaddr, but from ifaddr's ifnet. [2]

* Refactor the hardware RNG CPU instruction sources to feed into

to be sorted out. Modified by me (see below).
* Remove 'frac' parameter from random_harvest(). This was never

* Remove device write entropy harvesting. This provided a weak

follow will be a replacement explicit reseed knob.

o Namespace cleanup; the Yarrow name is now restricted to where it
really applies; this is in anticipation of being augmented or
replaced by Fortuna in the future. Fortuna is mentioned, but behind
#if logic, and is ignorable for now.
o The harvest queue is pulled out into its own modules.
o Entropy harvesting is emproved, both by being made more conservative,
and by separating (a bit!) the sources. Available entropy crumbs are
marginally improved.
o Selection of sources is made clearer. With recent revelations,
this will receive more work in the weeks and months to come.

These were used to control/export dispatch policy but they're not anymore.
This commit cannot be MFC'ed to 9 because old netstat(9) binary relies
on such sysctl to work. On the other hand, there's no real reason to
keep'em around in 10.
We've been seeing lots of cache line contention (but not lock contention!)
in our workloads between the various TX and RX threads going on.
The write lock is only grabbed when configuration changes are made - which
are infrequent.
With this patch, the contention and cycles spent waiting for updates
disappear.

features. The changes in particular are:
o Remove rarely used "header" pointer and replace it with a 64bit protocol/
layer specific union PH_loc for local use. Protocols can flexibly overlay
their own 8 to 64 bit fields to store information while the packet is
worked on.
o Mechanically convert IP reassembly, IGMP/MLD and ATM to use pkthdr.PH_loc
instead of pkthdr.header.
o Extend csum_flags to 64bits to allow for additional future offload
information to be carried (e.g. iSCSI, IPsec offload, and others).
o Move the RSS hash type enumerator from abusing m_flags to its own 8bit
rsstype field. Adjust accessor macros.
o Add cosqos field to store Class of Service / Quality of Service information
with the packet. It is not yet supported in any drivers but allows us to
get on par with Cisco/Juniper in routing applications (plus MPLS QoS) with
a modernized ALTQ.
o Add four 8 bit fields l[2-5]hlen to store the relative header offsets
from the start of the packet. This is important for various offload
capabilities and to relieve the drivers from having to parse the packet
and protocol headers to find out location of checksums and other
information. Header parsing in drivers is a lot of copy-paste and
unhandled corner cases which we want to avoid.
o Add another flexible 64bit union to map various additional persistent
packet information, like ether_vtag, tso_segsz and csum fields.
Depending on the csum_flags settings some fields may have different usage
making it very flexible and adaptable to future capabilities.
o Restructure the CSUM flags to better signify their outbound (down the
stack) and inbound (up the stack) use. The CSUM flags used to be a bit
chaotic and rather poorly documented leading to incorrect use in many
places. Bring clarity into their use through better naming.
Compatibility mappings are provided to preserve the API. The drivers
can be corrected one by one and MFC'd without issue.
o The size of pkthdr stays the same at 48/56bytes (32/64bit architectures).

tx_test and rx_test are still a bitmap of unit numbers for now.

addresses added to the UUID generator using uuid_ether_add(). The
UUID generator keeps an arbitrary number of MAC addresses, under
the assumption that they are rarely removed (= uuid_ether_del()).
This achieves the following:
1. It brings up closer to having the network stack as a loadable
module.
2. It allows the UUID generator to filter MAC addresses for best
results (= highest chance of uniqeness).
3. MAC addresses can come from anywhere, irrespactive of whether
it's used for an interface or not.
A side-effect of the change is that when no MAC addresses have been
added, a random multicast MAC address is created once and re-used if
needed. Previusly, when a random MAC address was needed, it was
created for every call. Thus, a change in behaviour is introduced
for when no MAC addresses exist.

Fix multiple kernel panics when VIMAGE is enabled in the kernel.
These fixes are based on patches submitted by Adrian Chadd and Marko Zec.
(1) Set curthread->td_vnet to vnet0 in device_probe_and_attach() just before calling
device_attach(). This fixes multiple VIMAGE related kernel panics
when trying to attach Bluetooth or USB Ethernet devices because
curthread->td_vnet is NULL.
(2) Set curthread->td_vnet in if_detach(). This fixes kernel panics when detaching networking
interfaces, especially USB Ethernet devices.
(3) Use VNET_DOMAIN_SET() in ng_btsocket.c
(4) In ng_unref_node() set curthread->td_vnet. This fixes kernel panics
when detaching Netgraph nodes.

* Add some new tracing events to aid in debugging.
* Add in a debugging mode to drop transmit and received frames, specifically
to test whether seeing or hearing heartbeats correctly cause LACP to
drop the port.
* Add in (and make default) a strict LACP mode, which requires the
heartbeat on a port to be heard before it's used. Sometimes vendor ports
will hang but the link layer stays up, resulting in hung traffic.
* Add logging the number of link status flaps, again to aid in debugging
badly behaving switch ports.
* Calculate the lagg interface port speed as the multiple of the
configured ports, rather than the largest.
