# 195818 22-Jul-2009 gallatin

mxge's tunable hw.mxge.rss_hash_type cannot be set from the
loader, because it uses a reserved suffix (_type). Fix
this by removing the "_" and renaming the tunable to
hw.mxge.rss_hashtype. The old (rss_hash_type) tunable is
still fetched, in case people load the driver via scripts.
When both are present in the kernel environment,
the new value (hw.mxge.rss_hashtype) overrides the old
value.

# 159571 13-Jun-2006 gallatin

- Complete the myri10ge -> mxge name change by doing a mechanical
s/myri10ge/mxge/g replacement in the myri10ge files. A few contuation
lines were joined because of the regained columns.
- Hook the mxge driver back to the build.


# 155852 19-Feb-2006 gallatin

10GbE mode driver and binary firmware for Myricom's PCI-express NICs.
More info regarding these nics can be found at http://www.myri.com.

Please note that the files
sys/dev/myri10ge/{mcp_gen_header.h,myri10ge_mcp.h} are internally
shared between all our drivers (solaris, macosx, windows, linux, etc).
I'd like to keep these files unchanged, so I can just import newer
versions of them when the firmware API/ABI changes. This means I'm
stuck with some of the crazy-long #define names, and possibly
non-style(9) characteristics of these files.

Many thanks to mlaier for doing firmware(9) just as I
needed it, and to scottl for his helpful review.
