d63e657c04 * Deal with ARCNET L2 multicast mapping for IPv6 the same way as in IPv4:
handle it in arc_output() instead of nd6_storelladdr().
* Remove IFT_ARCNET check from arpresolve() since arc_output() does not
  use arpresolve() to handle broadcast/multicast. This check was there
  since r84931. It looks like it was not used since r89099 (initial
  import of Arcnet support where multicast is handled separately).
* Remove IFT_IEEE1394 case from nd6_storelladdr() since firewire_output()
  calles nd6_storelladdr() for unicast addresses only.
* Remove IFT_ARCNET case from nd6_storelladdr() since arc_output() now
  handles multicast by itself.

As a result, we have the following pattern: all non-ethernet-style
media have their own multicast map handling inside their appropriate
routines. On the other hand, arpresolve() (and nd6_storelladdr()) which
meant to be 'generic' ones de-facto handles ethernet-only multicast maps.

d7968c29ec * Use newly-created nd6_grab_holdchain() function to retrieve lle
hold mbuf chain instead of calling full-blown nd6_output_lle()
  for each packet. This simplifies both callers and nd6_output_lle()
  implementation.
* Make nd6_output_lle() static and remove now-unused lle and chain
  arguments.
* Rename nd6_output_flush() -> nd6_flush_holdchain() to be consistent.
* Move all pre-send transmit hooks to newly-created nd6_output_ifp().
  Now nd6_output(), nd6_output_lle() and nd6_flush_holdchain() are using
  it to send mbufs to if_output.
* Remove SeND hook from nd6_na_input() because it was implemented
  incorrectly since the beginning (r211501):
  - it tagged initial input mbuf (m) instead of m_hold
  - tagging _all_ mbufs in holdchain seems to be wrong anyway.

1a75e3b20f Make checks for rt_mtu generic:
Some virtual if drivers has (ab)used ifa ifa_rtrequest hook to enforce
route MTU to be not bigger that interface MTU. While ifa_rtrequest hooking
might be an option in some situation, it is not feasible to do MTU checks
there: generic (or per-domain) routing code is perfectly capable of doing
this.

We currrently have 3 places where MTU is altered:

1) route addition.
 In this case domain overrides radix _addroute callback (in[6]_addroute)
 and all necessary checks/fixes are/can be done there.

2) route change (especially, GW change).
 In this case, there are no explicit per-domain calls, but one can
 override rte by setting ifa_rtrequest hook to domain handler
 (inet6 does this).

3) ifconfig ifaceX mtu YYYY
 In this case, we have no callbacks, but ip[6]_output performes runtime
 checks and decreases rt_mtu if necessary.

Generally, the goals are to be able to handle all MTU changes in
 control plane, not in runtime part, and properly deal with increased
 interface MTU.

This commit changes the following:
* removes hooks setting MTU from drivers side
* adds proper per-doman MTU checks for case 1)
* adds generic MTU check for case 2)

* The latter is done by using new dom_ifmtu callback since
 if_mtu denotes L3 interface MTU, e.g. maximum trasmitted _packet_ size.
 However, IPv6 mtu might be different from if_mtu one (e.g. default 1280)
 for some cases, so we need an abstract way to know maximum MTU size
 for given interface and domain.
* moves rt_setmetrics() before MTU/ifa_rtrequest hooks since it copies
  user-supplied data which must be checked.
* removes RT_LOCK_ASSERT() from other ifa_rtrequest hooks to be able to
  use this functions on new non-inserted rte.

More changes will follow soon.

4f8585e021 Revisions 264905 and 266860 added a "int fib" argument to ifa_ifwithnet and
ifa_ifwithdstaddr. For the sake of backwards compatibility, the new
arguments were added to new functions named ifa_ifwithnet_fib and
ifa_ifwithdstaddr_fib, while the old functions became wrappers around the
new ones that passed RT_ALL_FIBS for the fib argument. However, the
backwards compatibility is not desired for FreeBSD 11, because there are
numerous other incompatible changes to the ifnet(9) API. We therefore
decided to remove it from head but leave it in place for stable/9 and
stable/10. In addition, this commit adds the fib argument to

0cfee0c223 Fix subnet and default routes on different FIBs on the same subnet.
These two bugs are closely related.  The root cause is that ifa_ifwithnet
does not consider FIBs when searching for an interface address.

sys/net/if_var.h
sys/net/if.c
	Add a fib argument to ifa_ifwithnet and ifa_ifwithdstadddr.  Those
	functions will only return an address whose interface fib equals the
	argument.

	Update calls to ifa_ifwithnet and ifa_ifwithdstaddr with fib
	arguments.

sys/netinet/in.c
	Update in_addprefix to consider the interface fib when adding

	one already exists on a different fib.

sys/netinet/ip_output.c
sys/netinet/ip_options.c
sys/netinet6/nd6.c
	Add RT_DEFAULT_FIB arguments to ifa_ifwithdstaddr and ifa_ifwithnet.
	In some cases it there wasn't a clear specific fib number to use.
	In others, I was unable to test those functions so I chose
	RT_DEFAULT_FIB to minimize divergence from current behavior.  I will
	fix some of the latter changes along with PR kern/187553.

tests/sys/netinet/fibs_test.sh
tests/sys/netinet/udp_dontroute.c
tests/sys/netinet/Makefile
	Revert r263738.  The udp_dontroute test was right all along.
	However, bugs kern/187550 and kern/187553 cancelled each other out
	when it came to this test.  Because of kern/187553, ifa_ifwithnet
	searched the default fib instead of the requested one, but because
	of kern/187550, there was an applicable subnet route on the default
	fib.  The new test added in r263738 doesn't work right, however.  I
	can verify with dtrace that ifa_ifwithnet returned the wrong address
	before I applied this commit, but route(8) miraculously found the
	correct interface to use anyway.  I don't know how.

	Clear expected failure messages for kern/187550 and kern/187552.

f6990c4e3e Further simplify nd6_output_lle.
Currently we have 3 usage patterns:
1) nd6_output (most traffic flow, no lle supplied, lle RLOCK sufficient)
2) corner cases for output (no lle, STALE lle, so on). lle WLOCK needed.
3) nd* iunternal machinery (WLOCK'ed lle provided, perform packet queing).

We separate case 1 and implement it inside its only customer - nd6_output.
This leads to some code duplication (especialy SEND stuff, which should be
hooked to output in a different way), but simplifies locking and control
flow logic fir nd6_output_lle.

f6b84910bb Further rework netinet6 address handling code:
* Set ia address/mask values BEFORE attaching to address lists.
Inet6 address assignment is not atomic, so the simplest way to
do this atomically is to fill in ia before attach.
* Validate irfa->ia_addr field before use (we permit ANY sockaddr in old code).
* Do some renamings:
  in6_ifinit -> in6_notify_ifa (interaction with other subsystems is here)
  in6_setup_ifa -> in6_broadcast_ifa (LLE/Multicast/DaD code)
  in6_ifaddloop -> nd6_add_ifa_lle
  in6_ifremloop -> nd6_rem_ifa_lle
* Split working with LLE and route announce code for last two.
Add temporary in6_newaddrmsg() function to mimic current rtsock behaviour.
* Call device SIOCSIFADDR handler IFF we're adding first address.
In IPv4 we have to call it on every address change since ARP record
is installed by arp_ifinit() which is called by given handler.
IPv6 stack, on the opposite is responsible to call nd6_add_ifa_lle() so
there is no reason to call SIOCSIFADDR often.

54366c0bd7 - For kernel compiled only with KDTRACE_HOOKS and not any lock debugging
option, unbreak the lock tracing release semantic by embedding
  calls to LOCKSTAT_PROFILE_RELEASE_LOCK() direclty in the inlined
  version of the releasing functions for mutex, rwlock and sxlock.
  Failing to do so skips the lockstat_probe_func invokation for
  unlocking.
- As part of the LOCKSTAT support is inlined in mutex operation, for
  kernel compiled without lock debugging options, potentially every
  consumer must be compiled including opt_kdtrace.h.
  Fix this by moving KDTRACE_HOOKS into opt_global.h and remove the
  dependency by opt_kdtrace.h for all files, as now only KDTRACE_FRAMES
  is linked there and it is only used as a compile-time stub [0].

[0] immediately shows some new bug as DTRACE-derived support for debug
in sfxge is broken and it was never really tested.  As it was not
including correctly opt_kdtrace.h before it was never enabled so it
was kept broken for a while.  Fix this by using a protection stub,
leaving sfxge driver authors the responsibility for fixing it
appropriately [1].

are configured exactly on the interfaces, they run on.

The CARP configuration itself is, as before, configured and read via
SIOCSVH/SIOCGVH ioctls. A new prefix created with SIOCAIFADDR or
SIOCAIFADDR_IN6 may now be configured to a particular virtual host id,
which makes the prefix redundant.

ifconfig(8) semantics has been changed too: now one doesn't need
to clone carpXX interface, he/she should directly configure a vhid
on a Ethernet interface.

To supply vhid data from the kernel to an application the getifaddrs(8)
function had been changed to pass ifam_data with each address. [1]

The new implementation definitely closes all PRs related to carp(4)
being an interface, and may close several others. It also allows
to run a single redundant IP per interface.

Big thanks to Bjoern Zeeb for his help with inet6 part of patch, for
idea on using ifam_data and for several rounds of reviewing!

0f1aca6519 A default route learned from the RAs could be deleted manually
after its installation. This removal may be accidental and can
prevent the default route from being installed in the future if
the associated default router has the best preference. The cause
is the lack of status update in the default router on the state
of its route installation in the kernel FIB. This patch fixes
the described problem.

154d5f7321 Fix a problem that an interface unexpectedly becomes IFF_UP by
just doing "ifconfing inet6 -ifdisabled" when the interface has
ND6_IFF_AUTO_LINKLOCAL flag and no link-local address.
