MFC r314579,r314785:

r314579 (by np):

Add cxgbetool(8) to the base system.

Move cxgbetool from tools/tools to usr.sbin. Compile and install it on
platforms where cxgbe(4) is built by default. Knobs (WITH_CXGBETOOL and
WITHOUT_CXGBETOOL) have been added so that the user can override the
default setting.

r314785:

Fix some trivial manlint warnings

Sentences should begin on new lines, per manlint.

Bump .Dd for the change

cxgbe(4): Overhaul the shared code that deals with the chip's TP block,
which is responsible for filtering and RSS.

Add the ability to use filters that match on PF/VF (aka "VNIC id") while
here. This is mutually exclusive with filtering on outer VLAN tag with
Q-in-Q.

cxgbe(4): Updated register dumps.

- Get the list of registers to read during a regdump from the shared
code instead of the OS specific code. This follows a similar move
internally. The shared code includes the list for T6.

- Update cxgbetool to be able to decode T5 VF, T6, and T6 VF register
dumps (and catch up with some updates to T4 and T5 register decode).

Add a 'raw' parameter to the 'modinfo' subcommand. This is handy when
trying to figure out why a QSFP+/SFP+ connector or cable wasn't
identified correctly by cxgbe(4). Its output looks like this:

Add support for packet-sniffing tracers to cxgbe(4). This works with
all T4 and T5 based cards and is useful for analyzing TSO, LRO, TOE, and
for general purpose monitoring without tapping any cxgbe or cxl ifnet
directly.

Tracers on the T4/T5 chips provide access to Ethernet frames exactly as
they were received from or transmitted on the wire. On transmit, a
tracer will capture a frame after TSO segmentation, hw VLAN tag
insertion, hw L3 & L4 checksum insertion, etc. It will also capture
frames generated by the TCP offload engine (TOE traffic is normally
invisible to the kernel). On receive, a tracer will capture a frame
before hw VLAN extraction, runt filtering, other badness filtering,
before the steering/drop/L2-rewrite filters or the TOE have had a go at
it, and of course before sw LRO in the driver.

There are 4 tracers on a chip. A tracer can trace only in one direction
(tx or rx). For now cxgbetool will set up tracers to capture the first
128B of every transmitted or received frame on a given port. This is a
small subset of what the hardware can do. A pseudo ifnet with the same
name as the nexus driver (t4nex0 or t5nex0) will be created for tracing.
The data delivered to this ifnet is an additional copy made inside the
chip. Normal delivery to cxgbe<n> or cxl<n> will be made as usual.

/* watch cxl0, which is the first port hanging off t5nex0. */
# cxgbetool t5nex0 tracer 0 tx0 (watch what cxl0 is transmitting)
# cxgbetool t5nex0 tracer 1 rx0 (watch what cxl0 is receiving)
# cxgbetool t5nex0 tracer list
# tcpdump -i t5nex0 <== all that cxl0 sees and puts on the wire

If you were doing TSO, a tcpdump on cxl0 may have shown you ~64K
"frames" with no L3/L4 checksum but this will show you the frames that
were actually transmitted.

/* all done */
# cxgbetool t5nex0 tracer 0 disable
# cxgbetool t5nex0 tracer 1 disable
# cxgbetool t5nex0 tracer list
# ifconfig t5nex0 destroy

cxgbe(4): Add support for Chelsio's Terminator 5 (aka T5) ASIC. This
includes support for the NIC and TOE features of the 40G, 10G, and
1G/100M cards based on the T5.

The ASIC is mostly backward compatible with the Terminator 4 so cxgbe(4)
has been updated instead of writing a brand new driver. T5 cards will
show up as cxl (short for cxlgb) ports attached to the t5nex bus driver.

Add an "i2c" subcommand to cxgbetool. You can use this to read
information from the transceivers connected to the ports of a
cxgbe(4) based card.

# cxgbetool t4nex0 i2c <port_id> <dev_addr> <addr> [<count>]

For example:
# cxgbetool t4nex0 i2c 0 0xa0 3
0x10 [16]

(As per SFF-8472 the SFP+ module is at 0xa0 and bit 4 in the value at
address 3 indicates it's a 10Gbase-SR module, which it is.)

Many updates to cxgbe(4)

- Device configuration via plain text config file. Also able to operate
when not attached to the chip as the master driver.

- Generic "work request" queue that serves as the base for both ctrl and
ofld tx queues.

- Generic interrupt handler routine that can process any event on any
kind of ingress queue (via a dispatch table).

- A couple of new driver ioctls. cxgbetool can now install a firmware
to the card ("loadfw" command) and can read the card's memory
("memdump" and "tcb" commands).

- Lots of assorted information within dev.t4nex.X.misc.* This is
primarily for debugging and won't show up in sysctl -a.

- Code to manage the L2 tables on the chip.

- Updates to cxgbe(4) man page to go with the tunables that have changed.

- Updates to the shared code in common/

- Updates to the driver-firmware interface (now at fw 1.4.16.0)
