Each pflow(4) interface has associated socket, referenced as sc->so. We set this socket in pflowioctl() which is called with both kernel and net locks held. In the pflow_output_process() task we do sc->so dereference, which is protected by kernel lock. But the sosend(), called deeper by pflow_output_process(), has sleep points, introduced by solock(). So this kernel lock protection doesn't work as expected, and concurrent pflowioctl() could override this sc->so.
The diff below introduces per pflow(4) instance `sc_lock' rwlock(9) to protect sc->so. Since the solock() of udp(4) sockets uses netlock as backend, the `sc_lock' should be taken first. This expands a little netlock relocking within pflowioctl(). Also, pflow_sendout_mbuf() called by pflow_output_process(), now called without kernel lock held, so the mp safe counters_pkt(9) used instead of manual `if_opackets' increment. Since if_detach() does some ifnet destruction, now it can't be called before we finish pflow_output_process() task, otherwise we introduce use after free for interface counters. In other hand, we need to deny pflowioctl() to reschedule pflow_output_process() task. The `sc_dyind' flag introduced for that. Hrvoje, could you test this diff please?
