New pfil(9) KPI together with newborn pfil API and control utility.
The KPI have been reviewed and cleansed of features that were planned

been made opaque to protocols with only returned types and function
declarations exposed. The KPI is made more strict, but at the same time
more extensible, as kernel uses same command structures that userland
ioctl uses.
In nutshell [KA]PI is about declaring filtering points, declaring
filters and linking and unlinking them together.
New [KA]PI makes it possible to reconfigure pfil(9) configuration:
change order of hooks, rehook filter from one filtering point to a
different one, disconnect a hook on output leaving it on input only,
prepend/append a filter to existing list of filters.
Now it possible for a single packet filter to provide multiple rulesets
that may be linked to different points. Think of per-interface ACLs in
Cisco or Juniper. None of existing packet filters yet support that,
however limited usage is already possible, e.g. default ruleset can
be moved to single interface, as soon as interface would pride their
filtering points.
Another future feature is possiblity to create pfil heads, that provide
not an mbuf pointer but just a memory pointer with length. That would
allow filtering at very early stages of a packet lifecycle, e.g. when
packet has just been received by a NIC and no mbuf was yet allocated.

ix(4),ixv(4): Fix TSO offloads when TXCSUM is disabled
This patch and commit message are based on r340256 created by Jacob Keller:
The iflib stack does not disable TSO automatically when TXCSUM is
disabled, instead assuming that the driver will correctly handle TSOs
even when CSUM_IP is not set.
This results in iflib calling ixgbe_isc_txd_encap with packets which have
CSUM_IP_TSO, but do not have CSUM_IP or CSUM_IP_TCP set. Because of
this, ixgbe_tx_ctx_setup will not setup the IPv4 checksum offloading.
This results in bad TSO packets being sent if a user disables TXCSUM
without disabling TSO.
Fix this by updating the ixgbe_tx_ctx_setup function to check both
CSUM_IP and CSUM_IP_TSO when deciding whether to enable checksums.
Once this is corrected, another issue for TSO packets is revealed. The
driver sets IFLIB_NEED_ZERO_CSUM in order to enable a work around that
causes the ip->sum field to be zero'd. This is necessary for ix
hardware to correctly perform TSOs.
However, if TXCSUM is disabled, then the work around is not enabled, as
CSUM_IP will not be set when the iflib stack checks to see if it should
clear the sum field.
Fix this by adding IFLIB_TSO_INIT_IP to the iflib flags for the ix and
ixv interface files.
Once both of these changes are made, the ix and ixv drivers should
correctly offload TSO packets when TSO offload is enabled, regardless
of whether TXCSUM is enabled or disabled.

netmap: fix lock order reversal related to kqueue usage
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.

The need to use libc malloc(3) from some places in libthr always
caused issues. For instance, per-thread key allocation was switched to
use plain mmap(2) to get storage, because some third party mallocs
used keys for implementation of calloc(3).
Even more important, libthr calls calloc(3) during initialization of
pthread mutexes, and jemalloc uses pthread mutexes. Jemalloc provides
some way to both postpone the initialization, and to make
initialization to use specialized allocator, but this is very fragile
and often breaks. See the referenced PR for another example.
Add the small malloc implementation used by rtld, to libthr. Use it in
thr_spec.c and for mutexes initialization. This avoids the issues with
mutual dependencies between malloc and libthr in principle. The
drawback is that some more allocations are not interceptable for
alternate malloc implementations. There should be not too much memory
use from this allocator, and the alternative, direct use of mmap(2) is
obviously worse.
