Fwd: [PATCH] multiple instances of ipfw(4)

Subject: [PATCH] multiple instances of ipfw(4)
To: freebsd-net , freebsd-hack...@freebsd.org


Hello,

from needs on pfSense a patch for allowing multiple intances of
ipfw(4) in kernel to co-exist was developed.
It can be found here
https://raw.github.com/bsdperimeter/pfsense-tools/master/patches/RELENG_9_0/CP_multi_instance_ipfw.diff

It is used in conjuction with this tool
https://raw.github.com/bsdperimeter/pfsense-tools/master/pfPorts/ipfw_context/files/ipfw_context.c
It allows creation of contextes/instances and assignment of specific
interfaces to specific contexts/instances.

Surely i know that this is not the best way to implement generically
but it gets the job done for us as it is, read below.

What i would like to know is if there is interest to see such
functionality in FreeBSD?

I am asking first to see if there is some consensus about this as a
feature, needed or not!
If interest is shown i will transform the patch to allow:
- ipfw(8) to manage the contextes create/destroy
- ipfw(8) to manage interface membership. Closing the race of two
parallell clients modifying different contextes.

There is another design choice to be made about storing the membership
of interfaces into contexts/instances, but i do not see that as
blocking.

It is quite handy feature, which can be exploited even to scale on SMP
machines by extending it to bind a specific instance(with its
interaces) to a specific CPU/core?!

Comments/Feedback expected,
Ermal
