Summary

Rework if_ipsec(4) to used epoch(9) instead of rmlock.

  • use CK_LIST and FNV hash to keep chains of softc;
  • read access to soft is protected by epoch();
  • write access is protected by ipsec_ioctl_sx. Change of softc fields allowed only when softc is unlinked from CK_LIST chains. And linking/unlinking is allowed only when ipsec_ioctl_sx is exclusive locked.
  • the plain LIST of all softc is replaced by hash table that uses ingress address of tunnels as key.
  • added support for appearing/disappearing of ingress address handling D17134. Now it is allowed configure non-local ingress IP address, and thus the problem with if_ipsec(4) configuration that happens on boot, when ingress address is not yet configured, is solved.
