Each netmap adapter associated with a physical adapter is attached to a
netmap memory pool. contigmalloc() is used to allocate physically
contiguous memory for the pool, but ideally we would ensure that all
such memory is allocated from the NUMA domain local to the adapter.
Augment netmap's memory pools with a NUMA domain ID, similar to how
IOMMU groups are handled in the Linux port. That is, when attaching to
a physical adapter, ensure that the associated memory pools are local to
the adapter's associated memory domain, creating new pools as needed.
Some types of ifnets do not have any defined NUMA affinity; in this case
the domain ID in question is the sentinel value -1.
Add a sysctl, dev.netmap.port_numa_affinity, which can be used to enable
the new behaviour. Keep it disabled by now to avoid surprises in case
netmap applications are relying on zero-copy optimizations to forward
packets between ports belonging to different NUMA domains.

netmap_generic keeps a pool of mbufs for handling transfers, these mbufs
have an external buffer attached to them.
If some cases other parts of the network stack can chain these mbufs,
when this happens the normal pool destructor function can end up
free'ing the pool mbufs twice:
- A first time if a pool mbuf has been chained with another mbuf when
its chain is freed
- A second time when its entry in the pool is freed
Additionally, if other parts of the stack demote a pool mbuf its
interface reference will be cleared. In this case we deference a NULL
pointer when trying to free the mbuf through the destructor. Store a
reference to the adapter in ext_arg1 with the destructor callback so we
can find the correct adapter when free'ing a pool mbuf.
This change enables using netmap with epair interfaces.

The CSB_WRITE() and _READ() macros respectively write to and read from
userspace memory and so can in principle fault. However, we do not
check for errors and will proceed blindly if they fail. Add assertions
to verify that they do not.
This is in preparation for annotating copyin() and related functions

In emulated mode, the FreeBSD netmap port attempts to perform zero-copy
transmission. This works as follows: the kernel ring is populated with
mbuf headers to which netmap buffers are attached. When transmitting,
the mbuf refcount is initialized to 2, and when the counter value has
been decremented to 1 netmap infers that the driver has freed the mbuf
and thus transmission is complete.
This scheme does not generalize to the situation where netmap is
attaching to a software interface which may transmit packets among
multiple "queues", as is the case with bridge or lagg interfaces. In
that case, we would be relying on backing hardware drivers to free
transmitted mbufs promptly, but this isn't guaranteed; a driver may
reasonably defer freeing a small number of transmitted buffers
indefinitely. If such a buffer ends up at the tail of a netmap transmit
ring, further transmits can end up blocked indefinitely.
Fix the problem by removing the zero-copy scheme (which is also not
implemented in the Linux port of netmap). Instead, the kernel ring is
populated with regular mbuf clusters into which netmap buffers are
copied by nm_os_generic_xmit_frame(). The refcounting scheme is
preserved, and this lets us avoid allocating a fresh cluster per
transmitted packet in the common case. If the transmit ring is full, a
callout is used to free the "stuck" mbuf, avoiding the queue deadlock
described above.
Furthermore, when recycling mbuf clusters, be sure to fully reinitialize
the mbuf header instead of simply re-setting M_PKTHDR. Some software
interfaces, like if_vlan, may set fields in the header which should be
reset before the mbuf is reused.

The save_if_input function pointer was meant to save the previous
value of ifp->if_input before replacing it with the emulated
adapter hook.
However, the same pointer value is already stored in the if_input
field of the netmap_adapter struct, to be used for host TX ring processing.
Reuse the netmap_adapter if_input field to simplify the code
and save some space.

This feature enables applications to ask netmap to transmit or
receive packets starting at a user-specified offset from the
beginning of the netmap buffer. This is meant to ease those
packet manipulation operations such as pushing or popping packet
headers, that may be useful to implement software switches,
routers and other packet processors.
To use the feature, drivers (e.g., iflib, vtnet, etc.) must have
explicit support. This change does not add support for any driver,
but introduces the necessary kernel changes. However, offsets support
is already included for VALE ports and pipes.

The netmap passthrough subsystem requires proper support in the
hypervisor. In particular, two PCI device ids (from the Red Hat
PCI vendor id 0x1b36) need to be assigned to the two netmap
virtual devices. We then disable these devices until the ids have
not been assigned, in order to avoid conflicts with other
virtual devices emulated by upstream QEMU.

This change adds a counter (kqueue_users) to keep track of how many
kqueue users are referencing a given struct nm_selinfo.
In this way, nm_os_selwakeup() can schedule the kevent notification

Add SYNC_KLOOP_MODE option, and add support for direct mode, where application

When using poll(), select() or kevent() on netmap file descriptors,
netmap executes the equivalent of NIOCTXSYNC and NIOCRXSYNC commands,
before collecting the events that are ready. In other words, the
poll/kevent callback has side effects. This is done to avoid the
overhead of two system call per iteration (e.g., poll() + ioctl(NIOC*XSYNC)).
When the kqueue subsystem invokes the kqueue(9) f_event callback
(netmap_knrw), it holds the lock of the struct knlist object associated
to the netmap port (the lock is provided at initialization, by calling
knlist_init_mtx).
However, netmap_knrw() may need to wake up another netmap port (or even
the same one), which means that it may need to call knote().
Since knote() needs the lock of the struct knlist object associated to
the to-be-wake-up netmap port, it is possible to have a lock order reversal
problem (AB/BA deadlock).
This change prevents the deadlock by executing the knote() call in a
per-selinfo taskqueue, where it is possible to hold a mutex.

Changelist:
- Replace netmap passthrough host support with a more general
mechanism to call TXSYNC/RXSYNC from an in-kernel event-loop.
No kernel threads are used to use this feature: the application
is required to spawn a thread (or a process) and issue a
SYNC_KLOOP_START (NIOCCTRL) command in the thread body. The
kernel loop is executed by the ioctl implementation, which returns
to userspace only when a different thread calls SYNC_KLOOP_STOP
or the netmap file descriptor is closed.
- Update the if_ptnet driver to cope with the new data structures,
and prune all the obsolete ptnetmap code.
- Add support for "null" netmap ports, useful to allocate netmap_if,
netmap_ring and netmap buffers to be used by specialized applications
(e.g. hypervisors). TXSYNC/RXSYNC on these ports have no effect.
- Various fixes and code refactoring.

Buffer swapping does not need to happen anymore.
- Large refactoring of the control API towards an extensible solution;
the goal is to allow the addition of more commands and extension of

- fix rx CRC handing on ixl
- add module dependencies for netmap when building drivers as modules
- minor simplifications to device-specific routines (*txsync, *rxsync)
- general code cleanup (remove unused variables, introduce macros
to access rings and remove duplicate code,
Applications do not need to be recompiled, unless of course
they want to use the new features (monitors and exclusive open).
Those willing to try this code on stable/10 can just update the
