PCP and CFI fields.
* Ethernet_type for VLAN encapsulation is tunable, default is 0x8100;
* PCP (Priority code point) and CFI (canonical format indicator) is
tunable per VID;
* Tunable encapsulation to support 802.1q
* Encapsulation/Decapsulation code improvements
New messages have been added for this netgraph node to support the
new features.
However, the legacy "vlan" id is still supported and compiled in by
default. It can be disabled in a future release.

- Make hash sizes growable, to satisfy users running large mpd
installations, having thousands of nodes.
- NG_NAMEHASH() proved to give a very bad distribution in real life
name sets, while generic hash32_str(name, HASHINIT) proved to give
an even one, so you the latter for name hash.
- Do not store unnamed nodes in slot 0 of name hash, no reason for that.
- Use the ID hash in cases when we need to run through all nodes: the
NGM_LISTNODES command and in the vnet_netgraph_uninit().
- Implement NGM_LISTNODES and NGM_LISTNAMES as separate code, the former
iterates through the ID hash, and the latter through the name hash.
- Keep count of all nodes and of named nodes, so that we don't need
to count nodes in NGM_LISTNODES and NGM_LISTNAMES. The counters are
also used to estimate whether we need to grow hashes.
- Close a race between two threads running ng_name_node() assigning same
name to different nodes.
Code should just use the devtoname() function to obtain the name of a
character device. Also add const keywords to pieces of code that need it
to build properly.

hash with names of its hooks. It starts with size of 16, and
grows when number of hooks reaches twice the current size. A
failure to grow (memory is allocated with M_NOWAIT) isn't
fatal, however.
I used standard hash(9) function for the hash. With 25000
hooks named in the mpd (ports/net/mpd5) manner of "b%u", the
distributions is the following: 72.1% entries consist of one
element, 22.1% consist of two, 5.2% consist of three and
0.6% of four.
Speedup in a synthetic test that creates 25000 hooks and then
runs through a long cyclce dereferencing them in a random order
is over 25 times.
mutex(9) to rwlock(9) based locks.
While here remove dropping lock when processing NGM_LISTNODES,
and NGM_LISTTYPES generic commands. We don't need to drop it
since memory allocation is done with M_NOWAIT.
It seems strchr() and strrchr() are used more often than index() and
rindex(). Therefore, simply migrate all kernel code to use it.
For the XFS code, remove an empty line to make the code identical to
the code in the Linux kernel.
if_alloctype was used to store the origional interface type. Take
advantage of this change by removing all existing uses of if_free_type()
in favor of if_free().

The SYSCTL_NODE macro defines a list that stores all child-elements of
that node. If there's no SYSCTL_DECL macro anywhere else, there's no
reason why it shouldn't be static.

kernel for FreeBSD 9.0:
Add a new capability mask argument to fget(9) and friends, allowing system
call code to declare what capabilities are required when an integer file
descriptor is converted into an in-kernel struct file *. With options
CAPABILITIES compiled into the kernel, this enforces capability
protection; without, this change is effectively a no-op.
Some cases require special handling, such as mmap(2), which must preserve
information about the maximum rights at the time of mapping in the memory
map so that they can later be enforced in mprotect(2) -- this is done by
narrowing the rights in the existing max_protection field used for similar
purposes with file permissions.
In namei(9), we assert that the code is not reached from within capability
mode, as we're not yet ready to enforce namespace capabilities there.
This will follow in a later commit.
Update two capability names: CAP_EVENT and CAP_KEVENT become
CAP_POST_KEVENT and CAP_POLL_KEVENT to more accurately indicate what they
represent.

This is done per request/suggestion from John Baldwin
who introduced the option. Trying to resume normal
system operation after a panic is very unpredictable
and dangerous. It will become even more dangerous
when we allow a thread in panic(9) to penetrate all
lock contexts.
I understand that the only purpose of this option was
for testing scenarios potentially resulting in panic.

a separate struct to start a slist of semi-opaque structs. This
makes some code more compact.
o Rewrite ng_netflow_flow_show() and its API/ABI:
- Support for IPv6 is added.
- Request and response now use same struct. Structure specifies
version (6 or 4), index of last retrieved hash, and also index
of last retrieved entry in the hash entry.
- Make ng_unref_node() void, since caller shouldn't be
interested in whether node is valid after call or not,
since it can't be guaranteed to be valid. [1]

Make a behaviour of the libalias based in-kernel NAT a bit closer to
how natd(8) does work. natd(8) drops packets only when libalias returns
PKT_ALIAS_IGNORED and "deny_incoming" option is set, but ipfw_nat
always did drop packets that were not aliased, even if they should
not be aliased and just are going through.
Also add SCTP support: mark response packets to skip firewall processing.

virtual ifnets more realistically mimic physical ethernet interfaces.
The main motivation behind this change is to allow for ng_eiface(4)
interfaces to participate in STP if_bridge(4) configurations.
When announcing link status changes, switch to the vnet to which the
ifnet belongs, since it is possible for ng_eiface ifnets to be assigned
to a vnet different from the one in which its netgraph node resides.
