b3fc296326 Use malloc(9) for sockaddrs instead of pool(9), and remove dom_sa_pool
and dom_sa_len members from struct domain.  Pools of fixed-size
objects are too rigid for sockaddr_dls, whose size can vary over
a wide range.

Return sockaddr_dl to its "historical" size.  Now that I'm using
malloc(9) instead of pool(9) to allocate sockaddr_dl, I can create
a sockaddr_dl of any size in the kernel, so expanding sockaddr_dl
is useless.

Avoid using sizeof(struct sockaddr_dl) in the kernel.

Introduce sockaddr_dl_alloc() for allocating & initializing an
arbitrary sockaddr_dl on the heap.

Add an argument, the sockaddr length, to sockaddr_alloc(),
sockaddr_copy(), and sockaddr_dl_setaddr().

Constify: LLADDR() -> CLLADDR().

Where the kernel overwrites LLADDR(), use sockaddr_dl_setaddr(),
instead.  Used properly, sockaddr_dl_setaddr() will not overrun
the end of the sockaddr.

72f0a6dfb0 Eliminate address family-specific route caches (struct route, struct
route_in6, struct route_iso), replacing all caches with a struct
route.

The principle benefit of this change is that all of the protocol
families can benefit from route cache-invalidation, which is
necessary for correct routing.  Route-cache invalidation fixes an
ancient PR, kern/3508, at long last; it fixes various other PRs,
also.

Discussions with and ideas from Joerg Sonnenberger influenced this
work tremendously.  Of course, all design oversights and bugs are
mine.

DETAILS

1 I added to each address family a pool of sockaddrs.  I have
  introduced routines for allocating, copying, and duplicating,
  and freeing sockaddrs:

        struct sockaddr *sockaddr_alloc(sa_family_t af, int flags);
        struct sockaddr *sockaddr_copy(struct sockaddr *dst,
                                       const struct sockaddr *src);
        struct sockaddr *sockaddr_dup(const struct sockaddr *src, int flags);
        void sockaddr_free(struct sockaddr *sa);

  sockaddr_alloc() returns either a sockaddr from the pool belonging
  to the specified family, or NULL if the pool is exhausted.  The
  returned sockaddr has the right size for that family; sa_family
  and sa_len fields are initialized to the family and sockaddr
  length---e.g., sa_family = AF_INET and sa_len = sizeof(struct
  sockaddr_in).  sockaddr_free() puts the given sockaddr back into
  its family's pool.

  sockaddr_dup() and sockaddr_copy() work analogously to strdup()
  and strcpy(), respectively.  sockaddr_copy() KASSERTs that the
  family of the destination and source sockaddrs are alike.

  The 'flags' argumet for sockaddr_alloc() and sockaddr_dup() is
  passed directly to pool_get(9).

2 I added routines for initializing sockaddrs in each address
  family, sockaddr_in_init(), sockaddr_in6_init(), sockaddr_iso_init(),
  etc.  They are fairly self-explanatory.

3 structs route_in6 and route_iso are no more.  All protocol families
  use struct route.  I have changed the route cache, 'struct route',
  so that it does not contain storage space for a sockaddr.  Instead,
  struct route points to a sockaddr coming from the pool the sockaddr
  belongs to.  I added a new method to struct route, rtcache_setdst(),
  for setting the cache destination:

        int rtcache_setdst(struct route *, const struct sockaddr *);

  rtcache_setdst() returns 0 on success, or ENOMEM if no memory is
  available to create the sockaddr storage.

  It is now possible for rtcache_getdst() to return NULL if, say,
  rtcache_setdst() failed.  I check the return value for NULL
  everywhere in the kernel.

4 Each routing domain (struct domain) has a list of live route
  caches, dom_rtcache.  rtflushall(sa_family_t af) looks up the
  domain indicated by 'af', walks the domain's list of route caches
  and invalidates each one.

5493f188c7 KNF: de-__P, bzero -> memset, bcmp -> memcmp. Remove extraneous
parentheses in return statements.

Cosmetic: don't open-code TAILQ_FOREACH().

Cosmetic: change types of variables to avoid oodles of casts: in
   in6_src.c, avoid casts by changing several route_in6 pointers
   to struct route pointers.  Remove unnecessary casts to caddr_t
   elsewhere.

Pave the way for eliminating address family-specific route caches:
   soon, struct route will not embed a sockaddr, but it will hold
   a reference to an external sockaddr, instead.  We will set the
   destination sockaddr using rtcache_setdst().  (I created a stub
   for it, but it isn't used anywhere, yet.)  rtcache_free() will
   free the sockaddr.  I have extracted from rtcache_free() a helper
   subroutine, rtcache_clear().  rtcache_clear() will "forget" a
   cached route, but it will not forget the destination by releasing
   the sockaddr.  I use rtcache_clear() instead of rtcache_free()
   in rtcache_update(), because rtcache_update() is not supposed
   to forget the destination.

Constify:

   1 Introduce const accessor for route->ro_dst, rtcache_getdst().

   2 Constify the 'dst' argument to ifnet->if_output().  This
     led me to constify a lot of code called by output routines.

   3 Constify the sockaddr argument to protosw->pr_ctlinput.  This
     led me to constify a lot of code called by ctlinput routines.

   4 Introduce const macros for converting from a generic sockaddr
     to family-specific sockaddrs, e.g., sockaddr_in: satocsin6,
     satocsin, et cetera.

fc96443d15 New callout mechanism with two major improvements over the old
timeout()/untimeout() API:
- Clients supply callout handle storage, thus eliminating problems of
  resource allocation.
- Insertion and removal of callouts is constant time, important as
  this facility is used quite a lot in the kernel.

The old timeout()/untimeout() API has been removed from the kernel.
