I think that if_maddr_rlock + accessing list head on ifnet is just a plain wrong KPI. The if_maddr_count+if_maddr_array is a bit better, but requires to allocate memory, while usually being used in a context where we can't wait.

I also see that as contrary to intent of epoch.

Bjoern, you comment can be reduced to "Packets can be lost anywhere... so let's just drop them instead of further complicating reassembly code". :(
You didn't convince me guys. Can you please elaborate why removal of an interface should free packets that once came through this interface? Packet has arrived all the way to its last bit, it is legitimate packet. If you think it should be freed, then why are we flushing only fragment reassembly queues? Why don't flush TCP reassembly queues, socket buffers? Ah, we don't usually dereference m_pkthdr.rcvif for these kinds of queues, right, so we don't panic.

Sorry, I withdraw my approval. The more I think about this, the more I dislike it. What the patch does - it fixes the panic in a most straightforward way. But let's look at it from standpoint of network engineer, not kernel developer.
Although I still think that the problem of departing ifnets and queued/in-flight mbufs should be solved in a generic way, I'm fine with this patch. It closes one case out of many, but in non-disruptive way.

Yes, as a separate change.

- Remove spare, since nh_ia was added.

- Copy RTF_HOST to NHF_HOST.
- Export in_ifaddr as nh_ia. This allows to fix ifa packets/bytes accounting
More comments & fix a bug with broadcast.
After I spent sometime around this code, I support melifaro@'s suggestion.

I think that while in flight problem can be fixed with epoch, the queueing problem should be fixed in a radical way - do not store mbufs with rcvif in reassembly queues. Just grab the ND_IFINFO(m->m_pkthdr.rcvif)->chlim or whatever you need before putting buffer on queue.
I absolutely agree with Bjoern. This is fix for just one particular case of problem that an interface goes away and mbufs pointing at it with m_pkthdr.rcvif are still queued, or worse - in flight. This problem needs to be addressed as a whole.

Update to cover panics discovered by pf test suite.

- Use existing difference between ip and eh pointers to calculate

Style - no functional change.
Parse VLAN headers.
Optionally use m->m_pkthdr.rcvif for iif on output packets.
Rebase since some changes are already in head.

- In pfi_initialize_vnet() rely on IFNET_RLOCK() which is sx(9) for stability of ifnet and ifgroup lists. First allocate enough pfi_kif structs, then enter epoch and attach them.
- pfi_get_ifaces() NET_EPOCH_ENTER since pfi_skip_if() traverses ifgroup list.

The plan is to not be in epoch during full ifattach/ifclone event since these events have many places that allocate memory. Needs to be more fine grained. I'll ponder more over that.
- Enter epoch in DAD timer.
- Revert entering epoch for setsockopt. This needs to be fine grained.
