Because this is in a module, apparently, that means that netinet_in_offload.h
needs to get installed in /usr/include, so do that as well.
Feel free to fix this in a better way...
ip_undefer_csum -> in_undefer_cksum
in_delayed_cksum -> in_undefer_cksum_tcpudp
The two previous names were inconsistent and misleading.
Put the two functions into in_offload.c. Add comments to explain what
we're doing.
The same could be done for IPv6.

This change also fixes a bug that the direction is misunderstand on some
environment by passing the direction to bpf_mtap*() instead of checking
m->m_pkthdr.rcvif.
define TCPOLEN_SACK makes it unsigned, and the comparison in the while()
is unsigned too. That's not the expected behavior, the original code
wanted a signed comparison.
It's pretty easy to make 'hlen' go negative and trigger a buffer overflow.
This bug was reported 8 years ago by Lucio Albornoz in PR/44059.
The call to cprng_fast32() requires that per-cpu data has been initialized
by corng_fast_init(), which doesn't get called until after the first part
of auto-configuration is done, long after pfattach() calls cprng_fast32().

XXX This needs pull-up to the -8 branch.
The benefits of this change are:
- The flow is consistent with IPv4 (and FreeBSD and OpenBSD)
- old: ip6_output => nd6_output (do ND if needed) => L2_output (lookup a stored cache)
- new: ip6_output => L2_output (lookup a cache. Do ND if cache not found)
- We can remove some workarounds in nd6_output
- We can move L2 specific operations to their own place
- The performance slightly improves because one cache lookup is reduced
In the MP-safe world, a rtentry stemming from a rtcache can be freed at any
points. So we need to protect rtentries somehow say by reference couting or
passive references. Regardless of the method, we need to call some release
function of a rtentry after using it.
The change adds a new function rtcache_unref to release a rtentry. At this
point, this function does nothing because for now we don't add a reference
to a rtentry when we get one from a rtcache. We will add something useful
in a further commit.
This change is a part of changes for MP-safe routing table. It is separated
to avoid one big change that makes difficult to debug by bisecting.
The motivation is the same as the mbuf's rcvif case; avoid having a pointer
of an ifnet object in ip_moptions and ip6_moptions, which is not MP-safe.
ip_moptions and ip6_moptions can be stored in a PCB for inet or inet6
that's life time is different from ifnet one and so an ifnet object can be
disappeared anytime we get it via them. Thus we need to look up an ifnet
object by if_index every time for safe.
Having a pointer of an interface in a mbuf isn't safe if we remove big
kernel locks; an interface object (ifnet) can be destroyed anytime in any
packet processing and accessing such object via a pointer is racy. Instead
we have to get an object from the interface collection (ifindex2ifnet) via
an interface index (if_index) that is stored to a mbuf instead of an
pointer.
The change provides two APIs: m_{get,put}_rcvif_psref that use psref(9)
for sleep-able critical sections and m_{get,put}_rcvif that use
pserialize(9) for other critical sections. The change also adds another
API called m_get_rcvif_NOMPSAFE, that is NOT MP-safe and for transition
moratorium, i.e., it is intended to be used for places where are not
planned to be MP-ified soon.
The change adds some overhead due to psref to performance sensitive paths,
however the overhead is not serious, 2% down at worst.
Proposed on tech-kern and tech-net.
The API is used to set (or reset) a received interface of a mbuf.
They are counterpart of m_get_rcvif, which will come in another
commit, hide internal of rcvif operation, and reduce the diff of
the upcoming change.
No functional change.
The change ensures that ifnet objects in the ifnet list aren't freed during
list iterations by using pserialize(9) and psref(9).
Note that the change adds a pslist(9) for ifnet but doesn't remove the
original ifnet list (ifnet_list) to avoid breaking kvm(3) users. We
shouldn't use the original list in the kernel anymore.
We no longer need to change rtentry below if_output.
The change makes it clear where rtentries are changed (or not)
and helps forthcoming locking (os psrefing) rtentries.
- Replace ipintrq and ip6intrq with the pktqueue mechanism.
- Eliminate kernel-lock from ipintr() and ip6intr().
- Some preparation work to push softnet_lock out of ipintr().
Discussed on tech-net.

I have not built every extant kernel so I have probably broken at
least one build; however I've also found and fixed some wrong
cdevsw/bdevsw entries so even if so I think we come out ahead.
implementation. Rewrite pseudodevice code to use cprng_strong(9).
The new pseudodevice is cloning, so each caller gets bits from a stream
generated with its own key. Users of /dev/urandom get their generators
keyed on a "best effort" basis -- the kernel will rekey generators
whenever the entropy pool hits the high water mark -- while users of
/dev/random get their generators rekeyed every time key-length bits
are output.
The underlying cprng_strong API can use AES-256 or AES-128, but we use
AES-128 because of concerns about related-key attacks on AES-256. This
improves performance (and reduces entropy pool depletion) significantly
for users of /dev/urandom but does cause users of /dev/random to rekey
twice as often.
Also fixes various bugs (including some missing locking and a reseed-counter
overflow in the CTR_DRBG code) found while testing this.
For long reads, this generator is approximately 20 times as fast as the
old generator (dd with bs=64K yields 53MB/sec on 2Ghz Core2 instead of
2.5MB/sec) and also uses a separate mutex per instance so concurrency
is greatly improved. For reads of typical key sizes for modern
cryptosystems (16-32 bytes) performance is about the same as the old
code: a little better for 32 bytes, a little worse for 16 bytes.
arc4random() hacks in rump with stubs that call the host arc4random() to
get numbers that are hopefully actually random (arc4random() keyed with
stack junk is not). This should fix some of the currently failing anita
tests -- we should no longer generate duplicate "random" MAC addresses in
the test environment.
<20111022023242.BA26F14A158@mail.netbsd.org>. This change includes
the following:
An initial cleanup and minor reorganization of the entropy pool
code in sys/dev/rnd.c and sys/dev/rndpool.c. Several bugs are
fixed. Some effort is made to accumulate entropy more quickly at
boot time.
A generic interface, "rndsink", is added, for stream generators to
request that they be re-keyed with good quality entropy from the pool
as soon as it is available.
The arc4random()/arc4randbytes() implementation in libkern is
adjusted to use the rndsink interface for rekeying, which helps
address the problem of low-quality keys at boot time.
An implementation of the FIPS 140-2 statistical tests for random
number generator quality is provided (libkern/rngtest.c). This
is based on Greg Rose's implementation from Qualcomm.
A new random stream generator, nist_ctr_drbg, is provided. It is
based on an implementation of the NIST SP800-90 CTR_DRBG by
Henric Jungheim. This generator users AES in a modified counter
mode to generate a backtracking-resistant random stream.
An abstraction layer, "cprng", is provided for in-kernel consumers
of randomness. The arc4random/arc4randbytes API is deprecated for
in-kernel use. It is replaced by "cprng_strong". The current
cprng_fast implementation wraps the existing arc4random
implementation. The current cprng_strong implementation wraps the
new CTR_DRBG implementation. Both interfaces are rekeyed from
the entropy pool automatically at intervals justifiable from best
current cryptographic practice.
In some quick tests, cprng_fast() is about the same speed as
the old arc4randbytes(), and cprng_strong() is about 20% faster
than rnd_extract_data(). Performance is expected to improve.
The AES code in src/crypto/rijndael is no longer an optional
kernel component, as it is required by cprng_strong, which is
not an optional kernel component.
The entropy pool output is subjected to the rngtest tests at
startup time; if it fails, the system will reboot. There is
approximately a 3/10000 chance of a false positive from these
tests. Entropy pool _input_ from hardware random numbers is
subjected to the rngtest tests at attach time, as well as the
FIPS continuous-output test, to detect bad or stuck hardware
RNGs; if any are detected, they are detached, but the system
continues to run.
A problem with rndctl(8) is fixed -- datastructures with
pointers in arrays are no longer passed to userspace (this
was not a security problem, but rather a major issue for
compat32). A new kernel will require a new rndctl.
The sysctl kern.arandom() and kern.urandom() nodes are hooked
up to the new generators, but the /dev/*random pseudodevices
are not, yet.
Manual pages for the new kernel interfaces are forthcoming.
