bz ac429c7044 It turns out that too many drivers are not only parsing the L2/3/4
headers for TSO but also for generic checksum offloading.  Ideally we
would only have one common function shared amongst all drivers, and
perhaps when updating them for IPv6 we should introduce that.
Eventually we should provide the meta information along with mbufs to
avoid (re-)parsing entirely.

To not break IPv6 (checksums and offload) and to be able to MFC the
changes without risking to hurt 3rd party drivers, duplicate the v4
framework, as other OSes have done as well.

Introduce interface capability flags for TX/RX checksum offload with
IPv6, to allow independent toggling (where possible).  Add CSUM_*_IPV6
flags for UDP/TCP over IPv6, and reserve further for SCTP, and IPv6
fragmentation.  Define CSUM_DELAY_DATA_IPV6 as we do for legacy IP and
add an alias for CSUM_DATA_VALID_IPV6.

This pretty much brings IPv6 handling in line with IPv4.
TSO is still handled in a different way and not via if_hwassist.

Update ifconfig to allow (un)setting of the new capability flags.
Update loopback to announce the new capabilities and if_hwassist flags.

Individual driver updates will have to follow, as will SCTP.

This is the top level of the FreeBSD source directory.  This file
was last revised on:
$FreeBSD$

For copyright information, please see the file COPYRIGHT in this
directory (additional copyright information also exists for some
sources in this tree - please see the specific source directories for
more information).

The Makefile in this directory supports a number of targets for
building components (or all) of the FreeBSD source tree, the most
commonly used one being ``world'', which rebuilds and installs
everything in the FreeBSD system from the source tree except the
kernel, the kernel-modules and the contents of /etc.  The ``world''
target should only be used in cases where the source tree has not
changed from the currently running version.  See:
http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/makeworld.html
for more information, including setting make(1) variables.

The ``buildkernel'' and ``installkernel'' targets build and install
the kernel and the modules (see below).  Please see the top of
the Makefile in this directory for more information on the
standard build targets and compile-time flags.

Building a kernel is a somewhat more involved process, documentation
for which can be found at:
   http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/kernelconfig.html
And in the config(8) man page.
Note: If you want to build and install the kernel with the
``buildkernel'' and ``installkernel'' targets, you might need to build
world before.  More information is available in the handbook.

The sample kernel configuration files reside in the sys/<arch>/conf
sub-directory (assuming that you've installed the kernel sources), the
file named GENERIC being the one used to build your initial installation
kernel.  The file NOTES contains entries and documentation for all possible
devices, not just those commonly used.  It is the successor of the ancient
LINT file, but in contrast to LINT, it is not buildable as a kernel but a
pure reference and documentation file.
