will have an easier time replacing it with something different, even if
it is a second radix-trie implementation.
sys/net/route.c and sys/net/rtsock.c no longer operate directly on
radix_nodes or radix_node_heads.
Hopefully this will reduce the temptation to implement multipath or
source-based routing using grotty hacks to the grotty old radix-trie
code, too. :-)
Pfsync interface exposes change in the pf(4) over a pseudo-interface, and can
be used to synchronise different pf.

instead of adding/subtracting our own IPv4 header.
There are many benefits: gre(4) needn't grok the outer encapsulation
header any longer, so this simplifies the gre(4) code. The IP
stack needn't grok GRE, so it is simplified, too. gre(4) will
benefit from optimizations in the socket code. Eventually, gre(4)
will gain an IPv6 encapsulation with very few new lines of code.
There is a small performance loss. A 133 MHz, 486-class AMD Elan
sinks/sources a TCP stream over GRE with about 93% the throughput
of the old code. TCP throughput on a 266 MHz, 586-class AMD Geode
is about 96% the throughput of the old code. A 175-MHz ADM5120
(MIPS) only sinks a TCP stream over GRE at about 90% of the old
code; I am still investigating that.
I produced stripped-down versions of sosend() and soreceive() for
gre(4) to use. They are guaranteed not to block, so they can be
called from a software interrupt and from a socket upcall,
respectively.
A kernel thread is no longer necessary for socket transmit/receive,
but I didn't get around to removing it, yet.
Thanks to Matt Thomas for suggesting the use of stripped-down socket
code and software interrupts, and to Andrew Doran for advice and
answers concerning software interrupts, threads, and performance.
tells a socket that it should both add a protocol header to tx'd
datagrams and remove the header from rx'd datagrams:
int onoff = 1, s = socket(...);
setsockopt(s, SOL_SOCKET, SO_NOHEADER, &onoff);
2) Add an implementation of (SOL_SOCKET, SO_NOHEADER) for raw IPv4
sockets.
3) Reorganize the protocols' pr_ctloutput implementations a bit.
Consistently return ENOPROTOOPT when an option is unsupported,
and EINVAL if a supported option's arguments are incorrect.
Reorganize the flow of code so that it's more clear how/when
options are passed down the stack until they are handled.
Shorten some pr_ctloutput staircases for readability.
4) Extract common mbuf code into subroutines, add new sockaddr
methods, and introduce a new subroutine, fsocreate(), for reuse
later; use it first in sys_socket():
struct mbuf *m_getsombuf(struct socket *so)
Create an mbuf and make its owner the socket `so'.
struct mbuf *m_intopt(struct socket *so, int val)
Create an mbuf, make its owner the socket `so', put the
int `val' into it, and set its length to sizeof(int).
int fsocreate(..., int *fd)
Create a socket, a la socreate(9), put the socket into the
given LWP's descriptor table, return the descriptor at `fd'
on success.
void *sockaddr_addr(struct sockaddr *sa, socklen_t *slenp)
const void *sockaddr_const_addr(const struct sockaddr *sa, socklen_t *slenp)
Extract a pointer to the address part of a sockaddr. Write
the length of the address part at `slenp', if `slenp' is
not NULL.
socklen_t sockaddr_getlen(const struct sockaddr *sa)
Return the length of a sockaddr. This just evaluates to
sa->sa_len. I only add this for consistency with code that
appears in a portable userland library that I am going to
import.
const struct sockaddr *sockaddr_any(const struct sockaddr *sa)
Return the "don't care" sockaddr in the same family as
`sa'. This is the address a client should sobind(9) if it
does not care the source address and, if applicable, the
port et cetera that it uses.
const void *sockaddr_anyaddr(const struct sockaddr *sa, socklen_t *slenp)
Return the "don't care" sockaddr in the same family as
`sa'. This is the address a client should sobind(9) if it
does not care the source address and, if applicable, the
port et cetera that it uses.
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.
avoid an indirect function call by comparing the family, length,
and bytes [dom->dom_sa_cmpofs, dom->dom_sa_cmpofs + dom->dom_sa_cmplen),
corresponding to the the sockaddrs' "address" members.
For ISO, actually use sockaddr_iso_cmp, for a change. Thanks to
yamt@ for pointing out my error.
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.
routing caused by stale route caches (struct route). Route caches
are sprinkled throughout PCBs, the IP fast-forwarding table, and
IP tunnel interfaces (gre, gif, stf).
Stale IPv6 and ISO route caches will be treated by separate patches.
Thank you to Christoph Badura for suggesting the general approach
to invalidating route caches that I take here.
Here are the details:
Add hooks to struct domain for tracking and for invalidating each
domain's route caches: dom_rtcache, dom_rtflush, and dom_rtflushall.
Introduce helper subroutines, rtflush(ro) for invalidating a route
cache, rtflushall(family) for invalidating all route caches in a
routing domain, and rtcache(ro) for notifying the domain of a new
cached route.
Chain together all IPv4 route caches where ro_rt != NULL. Provide
in_rtcache() for adding a route to the chain. Provide in_rtflush()
and in_rtflushall() for invalidating IPv4 route caches. In
in_rtflush(), set ro_rt to NULL, and remove the route from the
chain. In in_rtflushall(), walk the chain and remove every route
cache.
In rtrequest1(), call rtflushall() to invalidate route caches when
a route is added.
In gif(4), discard the workaround for stale caches that involves
expiring them every so often.
Replace the pattern 'RTFREE(ro->ro_rt); ro->ro_rt = NULL;' with a
call to rtflush(ro).
Update ipflow_fastforward() and all other users of route caches so
that they expect a cached route, ro->ro_rt, to turn to NULL.
Take care when moving a 'struct route' to rtflush() the source and
to rtcache() the destination.
In domain initializers, use .dom_xxx tags.
KNF here and there.
Notable changes:
* Fixes PR 34268.
* Separates the code from gif(4) (which is more cleaner).
* Allows the usage of STP (Spanning Tree Protocol).
* Removed EtherIP implementation from gif(4)/tap(4).
Some input from Christos.
Also, add ioctls SIOCGIFADDRPREF/SIOCSIFADDRPREF to get/set preference
numbers for addresses. Make ifconfig(8) set/display preference
numbers.
To activate source-address selection policies in your kernel, add
'options IPSELSRC' to your kernel configuration.
Miscellaneous changes in support of source-address selection:
1 Factor out some common code, producing rt_replace_ifa().
2 Abbreviate a for-loop with TAILQ_FOREACH().
3 Add the predicates on IPv4 addresses IN_LINKLOCAL() and
IN_PRIVATE(), that are true for link-local unicast
(169.254/16) and RFC1918 private addresses, respectively.
Add the predicate IN_ANY_LOCAL() that is true for link-local
unicast and multicast.
4 Add IPv4-specific interface attach/detach routines,
in_domifattach and in_domifdetach, which build #ifdef
IPSELSRC.
See in_getifa(9) for a more thorough description of source-address
selection policy.

This change makes it possible to add gif interfaces to bridges, which
will then send and receive IP protocol 97 packets. Packets are Ethernet

to pool_init. Untouched pools are ones that either in arch-specific
code, or aren't initialiased during initial system startup.
Convert struct session, ucred and lockf to pools.
Gone are the old kern_sysctl(), cpu_sysctl(), hw_sysctl(),
vfs_sysctl(), etc, routines, along with sysctl_int() et al. Now all
nodes are registered with the tree, and nodes can be added (or
removed) easily, and I/O to and from the tree is handled generically.
Since the nodes are registered with the tree, the mapping from name to
number (and back again) can now be discovered, instead of having to be
hard coded. Adding new nodes to the tree is likewise much simpler --
the new infrastructure handles almost all the work for simple types,
and just about anything else can be done with a small helper function.
All existing nodes are where they were before (numerically speaking),
so all existing consumers of sysctl information should notice no
difference.
PS - I'm sorry, but there's a distinct lack of documentation at the
moment. I'm working on sysctl(3/8/9) right now, and I promise to
watch out for buses.
configured with ``options FAST_IPSEC''. Kernels with KAME IPsec or
with no IPsec should work as before.
All calls to ip_output() now always pass an additional compulsory
argument: the inpcb associated with the packet being sent,
or 0 if no inpcb is available.
Fast-ipsec tested with ICMP or UDP over ESP. TCP doesn't work, yet.
