protosw: separate pr_input and pr_ctlinput out of protosw

The protosw KPI historically has implemented two quite orthogonal
things: protocols that implement a certain kind of socket, and
protocols that are IPv4/IPv6 protocol. These two things do not
make one-to-one correspondence. The pr_input and pr_ctlinput methods
were utilized only in IP protocols. This strange duality required
IP protocols that doesn't have a socket to declare protosw, e.g.
carp(4). On the other hand developers of socket protocols thought
that they need to define pr_input/pr_ctlinput always, which lead to
strange dead code, e.g. div_input() or sdp_ctlinput().

With this change pr_input and pr_ctlinput as part of protosw disappear
and IPv4/IPv6 get their private single level protocol switch table
ip_protox[] and ip6_protox[] respectively, pointing at array of
ipproto_input_t functions. The pr_ctlinput that was used for
control input coming from the network (ICMP, ICMPv6) is now represented
by ip_ctlprotox[] and ip6_ctlprotox[].

ipproto_register() becomes the only official way to register in the
table. Those protocols that were always static and unlikely anybody
is interested in making them loadable, are now registered by ip_init(),
ip6_init(). An IP protocol that considers itself unloadable shall
register itself within its own private SYSINIT().

sockets: use only soref()/sorele() as socket reference count

o Retire SS_FDREF as it is basically a debug flag on top of already

o Convert SS_PROTOREF into soref()/sorele().
o Change reference model for the listen queues, see below.
o Make sofree() private. The correct KPI to use is only sorele().
o Make soabort() respect the model and sorele() instead of sofree().

Note on listening queues. Until now the sockets on a queue had zero
reference count. And the reference were given only upon accept(2). The
assumption was that there is no way to see the queued socket from anywhere
except its head. This is not true, since queued sockets already have pcbs,
which are linked at least into the global pcb lists. With this change we
put the reference right in the sonewconn() and on accept(2) path we just
hand the existing reference to the file descriptor.

sockets: use positive flag for file descriptor socket reference

Rename SS_NOFDREF to SS_FDREF and flip all bitwise operations.
Mark sockets created by socreate() with SS_FDREF.

This change is mostly illustrative. With it we see that SS_FDREF
is a debugging flag, since:
* socreate() takes a reference with soref().
* on accept path solisten_dequeue() takes a reference
with soref() and then soaccept() sets SS_FDREF.
* soclose() checks SS_FDREF, removes it and does sorele().

Load balance sockets with new SO_REUSEPORT_LB option.

Load balance sockets with new SO_REUSEPORT_LB option.

This patch adds a new socket option, SO_REUSEPORT_LB, which allow multiple
programs or threads to bind to the same port and incoming connections will be
load balanced using a hash function.

Most of the code was copied from a similar patch for DragonflyBSD.

However, in DragonflyBSD, load balancing is a global on/off setting and can not
be set per socket. This patch allows for simultaneous use of both the current
SO_REUSEPORT and the new SO_REUSEPORT_LB options on the same system.

Required changes to structures:
Globally change so_options from 16 to 32 bit value to allow for more options.
Add hashtable in pcbinfo to hold all SO_REUSEPORT_LB sockets.

Limitations:
As DragonflyBSD, a load balance group is limited to 256 pcbs (256 programs or
threads sharing the same socket).

This is a substantially different contribution as compared to its original
incarnation at svn r332894 and reverted at svn r332967. Thanks to rwatson@
for the substantive feedback that is included in this commit.

Listening sockets improvements.

o Separate fields of struct socket that belong to listening from
fields that belong to normal dataflow, and unionize them. This
shrinks the structure a bit.
- Take out selinfo's from the socket buffers into the socket. The
first reason is to support braindamaged scenario when a socket is
added to kevent(2) and then listen(2) is cast on it. The second
reason is that there is future plan to make socket buffers pluggable,
so that for a dataflow socket a socket buffer can be changed, and
in this case we also want to keep same selinfos through the lifetime
of a socket.
- Remove struct struct so_accf. Since now listening stuff no longer
affects struct socket size, just move its fields into listening part
of the union.
- Provide sol_upcall field and enforce that so_upcall_set() may be called
only on a dataflow socket, which has buffers, and for listening sockets
provide solisten_upcall_set().

o Remove ACCEPT_LOCK() global.
- Add a mutex to socket, to be used instead of socket buffer lock to lock
fields of struct socket that don't belong to a socket buffer.
- Allow to acquire two socket locks, but the first one must belong to a
listening socket.
- Make soref()/sorele() to use atomic(9). This allows in some situations
to do soref() without owning socket lock. There is place for improvement
here, it is possible to make sorele() also to lock optionally.
- Most protocols aren't touched by this change, except UNIX local sockets.
See below for more information.

o Reduce copy-and-paste in kernel modules that accept connections from
listening sockets: provide function solisten_dequeue(), and use it in
the following modules: ctl(4), iscsi(4), ng_btsocket(4), ng_ksocket(4),
infiniband, rpc.

o UNIX local sockets.
- Removal of ACCEPT_LOCK() global uncovered several races in the UNIX
local sockets. Most races exist around spawning a new socket, when we
are connecting to a local listening socket. To cover them, we need to
hold locks on both PCBs when spawning a third one. This means holding
them across sonewconn(). This creates a LOR between pcb locks and
unp_list_lock.
- To fix the new LOR, abandon the global unp_list_lock in favor of global
unp_link_lock. Indeed, separating these two locks didn't provide us any
extra parralelism in the UNIX sockets.
- Now call into uipc_attach() may happen with unp_link_lock hold if, we
are accepting, or without unp_link_lock in case if we are just creating
a socket.
- Another problem in UNIX sockets is that uipc_close() basicly did nothing
for a listening socket. The vnode remained opened for connections. This
is fixed by removing vnode in uipc_close(). Maybe the right way would be
to do it for all sockets (not only listening), simply move the vnode
teardown from uipc_detach() to uipc_close()?

Refactor the AIO subsystem to permit file-type-specific handling and
improve cancellation robustness.

Introduce a new file operation, fo_aio_queue, which is responsible for
queueing and completing an asynchronous I/O request for a given file.
The AIO subystem now exports library of routines to manipulate AIO
requests as well as the ability to run a handler function in the
"default" pool of AIO daemons to service a request.

A default implementation for file types which do not include an
fo_aio_queue method queues requests to the "default" pool invoking the
fo_read or fo_write methods as before.

The AIO subsystem permits file types to install a private "cancel"
routine when a request is queued to permit safe dequeueing and cleanup
of cancelled requests.

Sockets now use their own pool of AIO daemons and service per-socket
requests in FIFO order. Socket requests will not block indefinitely
permitting timely cancellation of all requests.

Due to the now-tight coupling of the AIO subsystem with file types,
the AIO subsystem is now a standard part of all kernels. The VFS_AIO
kernel option and aio.ko module are gone.

Many file types may block indefinitely in their fo_read or fo_write
callbacks resulting in a hung AIO daemon. This can result in hung
user processes (when processes attempt to cancel all outstanding
requests during exit) or a hung system. To protect against this, AIO
requests are only permitted for known "safe" files by default. AIO
requests for all file types can be enabled by setting the new
vfs.aio.enable_usafe sysctl to a non-zero value. The AIO tests have
been updated to skip operations on unsafe file types if the sysctl is
zero.

Currently, AIO requests on sockets and raw disks are considered safe
and are enabled by default. aio_mlock() is also enabled by default.

Merge from projects/sendfile:

o Introduce a notion of "not ready" mbufs in socket buffers. These
mbufs are now being populated by some I/O in background and are
referenced outside. This forces following implications:
- An mbuf which is "not ready" can't be taken out of the buffer.
- An mbuf that is behind a "not ready" in the queue neither.
- If sockbet buffer is flushed, then "not ready" mbufs shouln't be
freed.

o In struct sockbuf the sb_cc field is split into sb_ccc and sb_acc.
The sb_ccc stands for ""claimed character count", or "committed
character count". And the sb_acc is "available character count".
Consumers of socket buffer API shouldn't already access them directly,
but use sbused() and sbavail() respectively.
o Not ready mbufs are marked with M_NOTREADY, and ready but blocked ones
with M_BLOCKED.
o New field sb_fnrdy points to the first not ready mbuf, to avoid linear
search.
o New function sbready() is provided to activate certain amount of mbufs
in a socket buffer.

A special note on SCTP:
SCTP has its own sockbufs. Unfortunately, FreeBSD stack doesn't yet
allow protocol specific sockbufs. Thus, SCTP does some hacks to make
itself compatible with FreeBSD: it manages sockbufs on its own, but keeps
sb_cc updated to inform the stack of amount of data in them. The new
notion of "not ready" data isn't supported by SCTP. Instead, only a
mechanical substitute is done: s/sb_cc/sb_ccc/.
A proper solution would be to take away struct sockbuf from struct
socket and allow protocols to implement their own socket buffers, like
SCTP already does. This was discussed with rrs@.
