Copy head (r256279) to stable/10 as part of the 10.0-RELEASE cycle.

# 254925 26-Aug-2013 jhb

Remove most of the remaining sysctl name list macros. They were only
ever intended for use in sysctl(8) and it has not used them for many
years.

# 246822 15-Feb-2013 glebius

Finish the r244185. This fixes ever growing counter of pfsync bad
length packets, which was actually harmless.

Note that peers with different version of head/ may grow this
counter, but it is harmless - all pfsync data is processed.

o Create directory sys/netpfil, where all packet filters should
reside, and move there ipfw(4) and pf(4).

o Move most modified parts of pf out of contrib.

Actual movements:

sys/contrib/pf/net/*.c -> sys/netpfil/pf/
sys/contrib/pf/net/*.h -> sys/net/
contrib/pf/pfctl/*.c -> sbin/pfctl
contrib/pf/pfctl/*.h -> sbin/pfctl
contrib/pf/pfctl/pfctl.8 -> sbin/pfctl
contrib/pf/pfctl/*.4 -> share/man/man4
contrib/pf/pfctl/*.5 -> share/man/man5

sys/netinet/ipfw -> sys/netpfil/ipfw

The arguable movement is pf/net/*.h -> sys/net. There are
future plans to refactor pf includes, so I decided not to
break things twice.

Not modified bits of pf left in contrib: authpf, ftp-proxy,
tftp-proxy, pflogd.

The ipfw(4) movement is planned to be merged to stable/9,
to make head and stable match.

Discussed with: bz, luigi


# 240233 08-Sep-2012 glebius

Merge the projects/pf/head branch, that was worked on for last six months,
into head. The most significant achievements in the new code:

o Fine grained locking, thus much better performance.
o Fixes to many problems in pf, that were specific to FreeBSD port.

New code doesn't have that many ifdefs and much less OpenBSDisms, thus
is more attractive to our developers.

Those interested in details, can browse through SVN log of the
projects/pf/head branch. And for reference, here is exact list of
revisions merged:

# 233846 03-Apr-2012 glebius

Since pf 4.5 import pf(4) has a mechanism to defer
forwarding a packet, that creates state, until
pfsync(4) peer acks state addition (or 10 msec
timeout passes).

This is needed for active-active CARP configurations,
which are poorly supported in FreeBSD and arguably
a good idea at all.

Unfortunately by the time of import this feature in
OpenBSD was turned on, and did not have a switch to
turn it off. This leaked to FreeBSD.

This change make it possible to turn this feature
off via ioctl() and turns it off by default.

# 223637 28-Jun-2011 bz

Update packet filter (pf) code to OpenBSD 4.5.

You need to update userland (world and ports) tools

# 200930 23-Dec-2009 delphij

Adapt OpenBSD pf's "sloopy" TCP state machine which is useful for Direct
Server Return mode, where not all packets would be visible to the load
balancer or gateway.

This commit should be reverted when we merge future pf versions. The
benefit it would provide is that this version does not break any existing
public interface and thus won't be a problem if we want to MFC it to
earlier FreeBSD releases.

# 147261 10-Jun-2005 mlaier

Defer ip_output of pfsync updates to an independent callout thread instead
of just dropping the lock around the ip_output call. This used to cause
corrupted state tree walks for some call-paths.

In a second stage all callouts will be marked MPSAFE according to the
setting of mpsafenet.

# 147256 10-Jun-2005 brooks

Stop embedding struct ifnet at the top of driver softcs. Instead the
struct ifnet or the layer 2 common structure it was embedded in have
been replaced with a struct ifnet pointer to be filled by a call to the
new function, if_alloc(). The layer 2 common structure is also allocated
via if_alloc() based on the interface type. It is hung off the new
struct ifnet member, if_l2com.

This change removes the size of these structures from the kernel ABI and
will allow us to better manage them as interfaces come and go.

Other changes of note:
- Struct arpcom is no longer referenced in normal interface code.
Instead the Ethernet address is accessed via the IFP2ENADDR() macro.
To enforce this ac_enaddr has been renamed to _ac_enaddr.
- The second argument to ether_ifattach is now always the mac address
from driver private storage rather than sometimes being ac_enaddr.

Commit pf version 3.5 and link additional files to the kernel build.

Version 3.5 brings:
- Atomic commits of ruleset changes (reduce the chance of ending up in an
inconsistent state).
- A 30% reduction in the size of state table entries.
- Source-tracking (limit number of clients and states per client).
- Sticky-address (the flexibility of round-robin with the benefits of
source-hash).
- Significant improvements to interface handling.
- and many more ...


# 127145 17-Mar-2004 mlaier

Style(9) round for the pf kernel parts. Mostly #if defined() -> #ifdef

Also set HOOK_HACK to true (remove the related #ifdef's) as we have the
hooks in the kernel this was missed during the merge from the port.

# 126261 26-Feb-2004 mlaier

Bring diff from the security/pf port. This has code been tested as a port
for a long time and is run in production use. This is the code present in
portversion 2.03 with some additional tweaks.

The rather extensive diff accounts for:
- locking (to enable pf to work with a giant-free netstack)
- byte order difference between OpenBSD and FreeBSD for ip_len/ip_off
- conversion from pool(9) to zone(9)
- api differences etc.
