# 331722 29-Mar-2018 eadler

Revert r330897:

This was intended to be a non-functional change. It wasn't. The commit
message was thus wrong. In addition it broke arm, and merged crypto
related code.

Revert with prejudice.

This revert skips files touched in r316370 since that commit was since
MFCed. This revert also skips files that require $FreeBSD$ property
changes.

Thank you to those who helped me get out of this mess including but not
limited to gonzo, kevans, rgrimes.

MFC r329181

Update the MTU in affected routes when IPv6 RA changes the MTU

ip6_calcmtu() only looks at the interface MTU if neither the TCP hostcache
nor the route provides an MTU. Update the routes so they do not provide
stale MTUs.

This fixes UNH IPv6 conformance test cases v6LC_4_1_08 and v6LC_4_1_09,
which use a RA to reduce the link MTU from 1500 to 1280.

r315656:
Fix back-to-back runs of sys/netinet/fibs_test;slaac_on_nondefault_fib6

This test was failing if run twice because rtadvd takes too long to die.
The rtadvd process from the first run was still running when the
second run created its interfaces. The solution is to use SIGKILL during
the cleanup instead of SIGTERM so rtadvd will die faster.

While I'm here, randomize the addresses used for the test, which makes bugs
like this easier to spot, and fix the cleanup order to be the opposite of
the setup order

# 294706 25-Jan-2016 melifaro

MFP r287070,r287073: split radix implementation and route table structure.

There are number of radix consumers in kernel land (pf,ipfw,nfs,route)
with different requirements. In fact, first 3 don't have _any_ requirements
and first 2 does not use radix locking. On the other hand, routing
structure do have these requirements (rnh_gen, multipath, custom
to-be-added control plane functions, different locking).
Additionally, radix should not known anything about its consumers internals.

So, radix code now uses tiny 'struct radix_head' structure along with
internal 'struct radix_mask_head' instead of 'struct radix_node_head'.
Existing consumers still uses the same 'struct radix_node_head' with
slight modifications: they need to pass pointer to (embedded)
'struct radix_head' to all radix callbacks.

Routing code now uses new 'struct rib_head' with different locking macro:
RADIX_NODE_HEAD prefix was renamed to RIB_ (which stands for routing
information base).

New net/route_var.h header was added to hold routing subsystem internal
data. 'struct rib_head' was placed there. 'struct rtentry' will also
be moved there soon.


# 291466 30-Nov-2015 melifaro

Add new rt_foreach_fib_walk_del() function for deleting route entries

Remove now-unused rt_expunge() (eliminating last external RTF_RNH_LOCKED

This simplifies future nexthops/mulitipath changes and rtrequest1_fib()
locking refactoring.

Actual changes:
Add "rt_chain" field to permit rte grouping while doing batched delete
from routing table (thus growing rte 200->208 on amd64).
Add "rti_filter" / "rti_filterdata" / "rti_spare" fields to rt_addrinfo
to pass filter function to various routing subsystems in standard way.
Convert all rt_expunge() customers to new rt_addinfo-based api and eliminate
rt_expunge().


# 287798 14-Sep-2015 vangyzen

Fix the handling of IPv6 On-Link Redirects.

On receipt of a redirect message, install an interface route for the
redirected destination. On removal of the corresponding Neighbor Cache
entry, remove the interface route.

This requires changes in rtredirect_fib() to cope with an AF_LINK
address for the gateway and with the absence of RTF_GATEWAY.

This fixes the "Redirected On-Link" test cases in the Tahi IPv6 Ready Logo
Phase 2 test suite.

Unrelated to the above, fix a recursion on the radix node head lock
triggered by the Tahi Redirected to Alternate Router test cases.

When I first wrote this patch in October 2012, all Section 2
(Neighbor Discovery) test cases passed on 10-CURRENT, 9-STABLE,
and 8-STABLE. cem@ recently rebased the 10.x patch onto head and reported
that it passes Tahi. (Thanks!)

These other test cases also passed in 2012:

* the RTF_MODIFIED case, with IPv4 and IPv6 (using a
RTF_HOST|RTF_GATEWAY route for the destination)

* the redirected-to-self case, with IPv4 and IPv6

* a valid IPv4 redirect

All testing in 2012 was done with WITNESS and INVARIANTS.

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

# 225521 12-Sep-2011 hrs

Add $ipv6_cpe_wanif to enable functionality required for IPv6 CPE
(r225485). When setting an interface name to it, the following
configurations will be enabled:

1. "no_radr" is set to all IPv6 interfaces automatically.

2. "-no_radr accept_rtadv" will be set only for $ipv6_cpe_wanif. This is
done just before evaluating $ifconfig_IF_ipv6 in the rc.d scripts (this
means you can manually supersede this configuration if necessary).

3. The node will add RA-sending routers to the default router list
even if net.inet6.ip6.forwarding=1.

This mode is added to conform to RFC 6204 (a router which connects
the end-user network to a service provider network). To enable
packet forwarding, you still need to set ipv6_gateway_enable=YES.

Note that accepting router entries into the default router list when
packet forwarding capability and a routing daemon are enabled can
result in messing up the routing table. To minimize such unexpected
behaviors, "no_radr" is set on all interfaces but $ipv6_cpe_wanif.

# 222728 06-Jun-2011 hrs

- Accept Router Advertisement messages even when net.inet6.ip6.forwarding=1.

- A new per-interface knob IFF_ND6_NO_RADR and sysctl IPV6CTL_NO_RADR.
This controls if accepting a route in an RA message as the default route.
The default value for each interface can be set by net.inet6.ip6.no_radr.
The system wide default value is 0.

- A new sysctl: net.inet6.ip6.norbit_raif. This controls if setting R-bit in
NA on RA accepting interfaces. The default is 0 (R-bit is set based on
net.inet6.ip6.forwarding).

Background:

IPv6 host/router model suggests a router sends an RA and a host accepts it for
router discovery. Because of that, KAME implementation does not allow
accepting RAs when net.inet6.ip6.forwarding=1. Accepting RAs on a router can
make the routing table confused since it can change the default router
unintentionally.

However, in practice there are cases where we cannot distinguish a host from
a router clearly. For example, a customer edge router often works as a host
against the ISP, and as a router against the LAN at the same time. Another
example is a complex network configurations like an L2TP tunnel for IPv6
connection to Internet over an Ethernet link with another native IPv6 subnet.
In this case, the physical interface for the native IPv6 subnet works as a
host, and the pseudo-interface for L2TP works as the default IP forwarding
route.

Problem:

Disabling processing RA messages when net.inet6.ip6.forwarding=1 and
accepting them when net.inet6.ip6.forward=0 cause the following practical
issues:

- A router cannot perform SLAAC. It becomes a problem if a box has
multiple interfaces and you want to use SLAAC on some of them, for
example. A customer edge router for IPv6 Internet access service
using an IPv6-over-IPv6 tunnel sometimes needs SLAAC on the
physical interface for administration purpose; updating firmware
and so on (link-local addresses can be used there, but GUAs by
SLAAC are often used for scalability).

- When a host has multiple IPv6 interfaces and it receives multiple RAs on
them, controlling the default route is difficult. Router preferences
defined in RFC 4191 works only when the routers on the links are
under your control.

Details of Implementation Changes:

Router Advertisement messages will be accepted even when
net.inet6.ip6.forwarding=1. More precisely, the conditions are as
follow:

(ACCEPT_RTADV && !NO_RADR && !ip6.forwarding)
=> Normal RA processing on that interface. (as IPv6 host)

(ACCEPT_RTADV && (NO_RADR || ip6.forwarding))
=> Accept RA but add the router to the defroute list with
rtlifetime=0 unconditionally. This effectively prevents
from setting the received router address as the box's
default route.

(!ACCEPT_RTADV)
=> No RA processing on that interface.

ACCEPT_RTADV and NO_RADR are per-interface knob. In short, all interface
are classified as "RA-accepting" or not. An RA-accepting interface always
processes RA messages regardless of ip6.forwarding. The difference caused by
NO_RADR or ip6.forwarding is whether the RA source address is considered as
the default router or not.

R-bit in NA on the RA accepting interfaces is set based on
net.inet6.ip6.forwarding. While RFC 6204 W-1 rule (for CPE case) suggests
a router should disable the R-bit completely even when the box has
net.inet6.ip6.forwarding=1, I believe there is no technical reason with
doing so. This behavior can be set by a new sysctl net.inet6.ip6.norbit_raif
(the default is 0).

Usage:

# ifconfig fxp0 inet6 accept_rtadv
=> accept RA on fxp0
# ifconfig fxp0 inet6 accept_rtadv no_radr
=> accept RA on fxp0 but ignore default route information in it.
# sysctl net.inet6.ip6.norbit_no_radr=1
=> R-bit in NAs on RA accepting interfaces will always be set to 0.

- Make ND6_IFF_IFDISABLED more robust. It can be used to disable

- Receiving RA is allowed if ip6_forwarding==0 *and*
ND6_IFF_ACCEPT_RTADV is set on that interface. The former

like IPv6 CPE router. The current behavior is compatible with
the older releases of FreeBSD.

- The ifconfig(8) now supports these ND6 flags as well as "nud",

Build on Jeff Roberson's linker-set based dynamic per-CPU allocator
(DPCPU), as suggested by Peter Wemm, and implement a new per-virtual
network stack memory allocator. Modify vnet to use the allocator
instead of monolithic global container structures (vinet, ...). This
change solves many binary compatibility problems associated with
VIMAGE, and restores ELF symbols for virtualized global variables.

Each virtualized global variable exists as a "reference copy", and also
once per virtual network stack. Virtualized global variables are
tagged at compile-time, placing the in a special linker set, which is
loaded into a contiguous region of kernel memory. Virtualized global
variables in the base kernel are linked as normal, but those in modules
are copied and relocated to a reserved portion of the kernel's vnet
region with the help of a the kernel linker.

Virtualized global variables exist in per-vnet memory set up when the
network stack instance is created, and are initialized statically from
the reference copy. Run-time access occurs via an accessor macro, which
converts from the current vnet and requested symbol to a per-vnet
address. When "options VIMAGE" is not compiled into the kernel, normal
global ELF symbols will be used instead and indirection is avoided.

This change restores static initialization for network stack global
variables, restores support for non-global symbols and types, eliminates
the need for many subsystem constructors, eliminates large per-subsystem
structures that caused many binary compatibility issues both for
monitoring applications (netstat) and kernel modules, removes the
per-function INIT_VNET_*() macros throughout the stack, eliminates the
need for vnet_symmap ksym(2) munging, and eliminates duplicate

This main goals of this project are:
1. separating L2 tables (ARP, NDP) from the L3 routing tables
2. removing as much locking dependencies among these layers as
possible to allow for some parallelism in the search operations
3. simplify the logic in the routing code,

The most notable end result is the obsolescent of the route
cloning (RTF_CLONING) concept, which translated into code reduction
in both IPv4 ARP and IPv6 NDP related modules, and size reduction in
struct rtentry{}. The change in design obsoletes the semantics of
RTF_CLONING, RTF_WASCLONE and RTF_LLINFO routing flags. The userland
applications such as "arp" and "ndp" have been modified to reflect
those changes. The output from "netstat -r" shows only the routing
entries.

# 178888 09-May-2008 julian

Add code to allow the system to handle multiple routing tables.
This particular implementation is designed to be fully backwards compatible
and to be MFC-able to 7.x (and 6.x)

Currently the only protocol that can make use of the multiple tables is IPv4
Similar functionality exists in OpenBSD and Linux.

From my notes:

-----

One thing where FreeBSD has been falling behind, and which by chance I
have some time to work on is "policy based routing", which allows
different
packet streams to be routed by more than just the destination address.

Constraints:
------------

I want to make some form of this available in the 6.x tree
(and by extension 7.x) , but FreeBSD in general needs it so I might as
well do it in -current and back port the portions I need.

One of the ways that this can be done is to have the ability to
instantiate multiple kernel routing tables (which I will now
refer to as "Forwarding Information Bases" or "FIBs" for political
correctness reasons). Which FIB a particular packet uses to make
the next hop decision can be decided by a number of mechanisms.
The policies these mechanisms implement are the "Policies" referred
to in "Policy based routing".

One of the constraints I have if I try to back port this work to
6.x is that it must be implemented as a EXTENSION to the existing
ABIs in 6.x so that third party applications do not need to be
recompiled in timespan of the branch.

This first version will not have some of the bells and whistles that
will come with later versions. It will, for example, be limited to 16
tables in the first commit.
Implementation method, Compatible version. (part 1)
-------------------------------
For this reason I have implemented a "sufficient subset" of a
multiple routing table solution in Perforce, and back-ported it
to 6.x. (also in Perforce though not always caught up with what I
have done in -current/P4). The subset allows a number of FIBs
to be defined at compile time (8 is sufficient for my purposes in 6.x)
and implements the changes needed to allow IPV4 to use them. I have not
done the changes for ipv6 simply because I do not need it, and I do not
have enough knowledge of ipv6 (e.g. neighbor discovery) needed to do it.

Other protocol families are left untouched and should there be
users with proprietary protocol families, they should continue to work
and be oblivious to the existence of the extra FIBs.

To understand how this is done, one must know that the current FIB
code starts everything off with a single dimensional array of
pointers to FIB head structures (One per protocol family), each of
which in turn points to the trie of routes available to that family.

The basic change in the ABI compatible version of the change is to
extent that array to be a 2 dimensional array, so that
instead of protocol family X looking at rt_tables[X] for the
table it needs, it looks at rt_tables[Y][X] when for all
protocol families except ipv4 Y is always 0.
Code that is unaware of the change always just sees the first row
of the table, which of course looks just like the one dimensional
array that existed before.

The entry points rtrequest(), rtalloc(), rtalloc1(), rtalloc_ign()
are all maintained, but refer only to the first row of the array,
so that existing callers in proprietary protocols can continue to
do the "right thing".
Some new entry points are added, for the exclusive use of ipv4 code
called in_rtrequest(), in_rtalloc(), in_rtalloc1() and in_rtalloc_ign(),
which have an extra argument which refers the code to the correct row.

In addition, there are some new entry points (currently called
rtalloc_fib() and friends) that check the Address family being
looked up and call either rtalloc() (and friends) if the protocol
is not IPv4 forcing the action to row 0 or to the appropriate row
if it IS IPv4 (and that info is available). These are for calling
from code that is not specific to any particular protocol. The way
these are implemented would change in the non ABI preserving code
to be added later.

One feature of the first version of the code is that for ipv4,
the interface routes show up automatically on all the FIBs, so
that no matter what FIB you select you always have the basic
direct attached hosts available to you. (rtinit() does this
automatically).

You CAN delete an interface route from one FIB should you want
to but by default it's there. ARP information is also available
in each FIB. It's assumed that the same machine would have the
same MAC address, regardless of which FIB you are using to get
to it.

This brings us as to how the correct FIB is selected for an outgoing
IPV4 packet.

Firstly, all packets have a FIB associated with them. if nothing
has been done to change it, it will be FIB 0. The FIB is changed
in the following ways.

Packets fall into one of a number of classes.

1/ locally generated packets, coming from a socket/PCB.
Such packets select a FIB from a number associated with the
socket/PCB. This in turn is inherited from the process,
but can be changed by a socket option. The process in turn
inherits it on fork. I have written a utility call setfib
that acts a bit like nice..

setfib -3 ping target.example.com # will use fib 3 for ping.

It is an obvious extension to make it a property of a jail
but I have not done so. It can be achieved by combining the setfib and
jail commands.

2/ packets received on an interface for forwarding.
By default these packets would use table 0,
(or possibly a number settable in a sysctl(not yet)).
but prior to routing the firewall can inspect them (see below).
(possibly in the future you may be able to associate a FIB
with packets received on an interface.. An ifconfig arg, but not yet.)

3/ packets inspected by a packet classifier, which can arbitrarily
associate a fib with it on a packet by packet basis.
A fib assigned to a packet by a packet classifier
(such as ipfw) would over-ride a fib associated by
a more default source. (such as cases 1 or 2).

4/ a tcp listen socket associated with a fib will generate
accept sockets that are associated with that same fib.

5/ Packets generated in response to some other packet (e.g. reset
or icmp packets). These should use the FIB associated with the
packet being reponded to.

6/ Packets generated during encapsulation.
gif, tun and other tunnel interfaces will encapsulate using the FIB
that was in effect withthe proces that set up the tunnel.
thus setfib 1 ifconfig gif0 [tunnel instructions]
will set the fib for the tunnel to use to be fib 1.

Routing messages would be associated with their
process, and thus select one FIB or another.
messages from the kernel would be associated with the fib they
refer to and would only be received by a routing socket associated
with that fib. (not yet implemented)

In addition Netstat has been edited to be able to cope with the
fact that the array is now 2 dimensional. (It looks in system
memory using libkvm (!)). Old versions of netstat see only the first FIB.

In addition two sysctls are added to give:
a) the number of FIBs compiled in (active)
b) the default FIB of the calling process.

Early testing experience:
-------------------------

Basically our (IronPort's) appliance does this functionality already
using ipfw fwd but that method has some drawbacks.

For example,
It can't fully simulate a routing table because it can't influence the
socket's choice of local address when a connect() is done.

Testing during the generating of these changes has been
remarkably smooth so far. Multiple tables have co-existed
with no notable side effects, and packets have been routes
accordingly.

ipfw has grown 2 new keywords:

setfib N ip from anay to any
count ip from any to any fib N

In pf there seems to be a requirement to be able to give symbolic names to the
fibs but I do not have that capacity. I am not sure if it is required.

SCTP has interestingly enough built in support for this, called VRFs
in Cisco parlance. it will be interesting to see how that handles it
when it suddenly actually does something.

Where to next:
--------------------

After committing the ABI compatible version and MFCing it, I'd
like to proceed in a forward direction in -current. this will
result in some roto-tilling in the routing code.

Firstly: the current code's idea of having a separate tree per
protocol family, all of the same format, and pointed to by the
1 dimensional array is a bit silly. Especially when one considers that
there is code that makes assumptions about every protocol having the
same internal structures there. Some protocols don't WANT that
sort of structure. (for example the whole idea of a netmask is foreign
to appletalk). This needs to be made opaque to the external code.

My suggested first change is to add routing method pointers to the
'domain' structure, along with information pointing the data.
instead of having an array of pointers to uniform structures,
there would be an array pointing to the 'domain' structures
for each protocol address domain (protocol family),
and the methods this reached would be called. The methods would have
an argument that gives FIB number, but the protocol would be free
to ignore it.

When the ABI can be changed it raises the possibilty of the
addition of a fib entry into the "struct route". Currently,
the structure contains the sockaddr of the desination, and the resulting
fib entry. To make this work fully, one could add a fib number
so that given an address and a fib, one can find the third element, the
fib entry.

Interaction with the ARP layer/ LL layer would need to be
revisited as well. Qing Li has been working on this already.

scope cleanup. with this change
- most of the kernel code will not care about the actual encoding of
scope zone IDs and won't touch "s6_addr16[1]" directly.
- similarly, most of the kernel code will not care about link-local
scoped addresses as a special case.
- scope boundary check will be stricter. For example, the current
*BSD code allows a packet with src=::1 and dst=(some global IPv6
address) to be sent outside of the node, if the application do:
s = socket(AF_INET6);
bind(s, "::1");
sendto(s, some_global_IPv6_addr);
This is clearly wrong, since ::1 is only meaningful within a single
node, but the current implementation of the *BSD kernel cannot
reject this attempt.

Locking for updates to routing table entries. Each rtentry gets a mutex
that covers updates to the contents. Note this is separate from holding
a reference and/or locking the routing table itself.

Other/related changes:

o rtredirect loses the final parameter by which an rtentry reference
may be returned; this was never used and added unwarranted complexity
for locking.
o minor style cleanups to routing code (e.g. ansi-fy function decls)
o remove the logic to bump the refcnt on the parent of cloned routes,
we assume the parent will remain as long as the clone; doing this avoids
a circularity in locking during delete
o convert some timeouts to MPSAFE callouts

Notes:

1. rt_mtx in struct rtentry is guarded by #ifdef _KERNEL as user-level
applications cannot/do-no know about mutex's. Doing this requires
that the mutex be the last element in the structure. A better solution
is to introduce an externalized version of struct rtentry but this is
a major task because of the intertwining of rtentry and other data
structures that are visible to user applications.
2. There are known LOR's that are expected to go away with forthcoming
work to eliminate many held references. If not these will be resolved
prior to release.
3. ATM changes are untested.

the new stuff ensures the backward compatibility;
- the kernel does not accept RAs on any interfaces by default.
- since the default value of the flag bit is on, the kernel accepts RAs
on all interfaces when net.inet6.ip6.accept_rtadv is 1.
