the 10.1-RELEASE process.

# 266406 18-May-2014 ian

MFC 256942, 256943:

- Fix a typo.
- Use bus_dmamap_unload(), it is not optional.
- The new allocator won't return coherent memory for any size > PAGE_SIZE,
so don't assume we have coherent memory, and explicitely use
bus_dmamap_sync().


# 259342 13-Dec-2013 ian

MFC r257258, r257265: Include headers (if_var.h and others) where needed.

The change that triggered the need for this on head was r257244. That
hasn't been MFC'd yet, but there's no harm in paving the way for it with
this MFC.


# 256281 10-Oct-2013 gjb

# 243882 05-Dec-2012 glebius

Mechanically substitute flags from historic mbuf allocator with
malloc(9) flags within sys.

Exceptions:

- sys/contrib not touched
- sys/mbuf.h edited manually


# 236987 13-Jun-2012 imp

trim trailing spaces that have accumulated over the years (these files
served as the basis for too many other platforms).


# 227309 07-Nov-2011 ed

Mark all SYSCTL_NODEs static that have no corresponding SYSCTL_DECLs.

The SYSCTL_NODE macro defines a list that stores all child-elements of
that node. If there's no SYSCTL_DECL macro anywhere else, there's no
reason why it shouldn't be static.


# 213893 15-Oct-2010 marius

Convert the PHY drivers to honor the mii_flags passed down and convert
the NIC drivers as well as the PHY drivers to take advantage of the
mii_attach() introduced in r213878 to get rid of certain hacks. For
the most part these were:
- Artificially limiting miibus_{read,write}reg methods to certain PHY
addresses; we now let mii_attach() only probe the PHY at the desired
address(es) instead.
- PHY drivers setting MIIF_* flags based on the NIC driver they hang
off from, partly even based on grabbing and using the softc of the
parent; we now pass these flags down from the NIC to the PHY drivers
via mii_attach(). This got us rid of all such hacks except those of
brgphy() in combination with bce(4) and bge(4), which is way beyond
what can be expressed with simple flags.

While at it, I took the opportunity to change the NIC drivers to pass
up the error returned by mii_attach() (previously by mii_phy_probe())
and unify the error message used in this case where and as appropriate
as mii_attach() actually can fail for a number of reasons, not just
because of no PHY(s) being present at the expected address(es).

# 207554 03-May-2010 sobomax

Add new tunable 'net.link.ifqmaxlen' to set default send interface
queue length. The default value for this parameter is 50, which is
quite low for many of today's uses and the only way to modify this
parameter right now is to edit if_var.h file. Also add read-only
sysctl with the same name, so that it's possible to retrieve the
current value.

# 195049 26-Jun-2009 rwatson

Use if_maddr_rlock()/if_maddr_runlock() rather than IF_ADDR_LOCK()/
IF_ADDR_UNLOCK() across network device drivers when accessing the
per-interface multicast address list, if_multiaddrs. This will
allow us to change the locking strategy without affecting our driver
programming interface or binary interface.

For two wireless drivers, remove unnecessary locking, since they
don't actually access the multicast address list.

# 194321 17-Jun-2009 sam

o correct default miibase for NPE-B and NPE-C; these values are
normally taken from the hints file so this should have no effect
o set the port address "just in case"
o add NPE-A support to the tx done qmgr callback

maintain existing style


# 193096 30-May-2009 attilio

When user_frac in the polling subsystem is low it is going to busy the
CPU for too long period than necessary. Additively, interfaces are kept
polled (in the tick) even if no more packets are available.
In order to avoid such situations a new generic mechanism can be
implemented in proactive way, keeping track of the time spent on any
packet and fragmenting the time for any tick, stopping the processing
as soon as possible.

In order to implement such mechanism, the polling handler needs to
change, returning the number of packets processed.
While the intended logic is not part of this patch, the polling KPI is
broken by this commit, adding an int return value and the new flag
IFCAP_POLLING_NOCOUNT (which will signal that the return value is
meaningless for the installed handler and checking should be skipped).

Bump __FreeBSD_version in order to signal such situation.

# 189642 10-Mar-2009 sam

turn off inclusion of FCS in rx'd frames; we don't use it anywhere and
dhclient gets annoyed when it receives FCS in frames via bpf


# 186420 23-Dec-2008 sam

NPE cleanups needed for ancillary drivers (e.g. crypto acceleration):
o check feature bits when probing NPE ethernet support
o move firmware loading logic from if_npe to core npe support
o allow multiple refs to core NPE driver
o while here fix hw.npe.debug tunable path


# 186352 20-Dec-2008 sam

Merge support for Gateworks Cambria boards:
o add support for IXP435 cpu's (e.g. 64 irq's)
o add support for Cambria-specific devices: npe, led's (front panel and
octal latch), ehci, mcu, ide cf
o redo memory mapping for xscale/ixp4xx boards: previously memory
was assumed aliased to 0x10000000 but this appears to be true only
for ixp425 systems and breaks operation on others; rework so memory
is assumed to start at 0
o rework NPE configuration support to use NPE id's instead of port #'s;
these changes also rename the associated MAC's to follow the NPE's
they are attached to
o update npe firmware to latest rev (same license) and update default fw
imageid's to match; in particular this adds NPE-A and crypto support
o re-style NPE fw handling code and add a console msg identifying the
attributes of the loaded fw
o fix numerous problems with handling failures during npe setup
o fix npe rx q setup; need to spin waiting for mailbox responses during
early boot stages as qmgr interrupts are not delivered; this fixes
the problem where all 8 traffic classifications were not tied to the
rx q (and eliminates the console msg "remember to fix rx q setup")
o add DELAY to npe MII wait logic for IXP435
o strip down builtin phys->virt address translation table in resource
handling to just those resources that require it and add a console msg
to alert people when this (kludge) table needs to be extended
o purge a bunch of dead netbsd-ism's
o cleanup avila led driver
o add Cambria support to boot2 and rework code for better multi-board support

Notes:
1. NPE-A doesn't work and causes NPE-C to stop working; it is disabled
in the hints
2. USB isn't working yet; controller communicates ok but device
discovery fails
3. Cambria support must be configured separately from IXP425 boards;
multi-board support is TBD

# 177505 22-Mar-2008 sam

Improve mac+phy configuration so that hints can be used to describe
layouts different than the defaults:
o hint.npe.0.mac="A", "B", etc. specifies the window for MAC register accesses
o hint.npe.0.mii="A", "B", etc. specifies PHY registers
o hint.npe.1.phy=%d specifies the PHY to map to a port

This allows devices like NSLU to be setup w/o code changes and will
also be used for forthcoming support for more Avila boards.

# 166064 16-Jan-2007 cognet

Create bus dma tags for both the PCI bus and the IXP425 root bus. Set the
PCI bus' one as the default one, and explicitely use the other one for
non-PCI devices.
This is needed because the PCI bus can only address 64MB of RAM, while some
IXP425 boards have 128MB or more, and most of the PCI drivers do not bother
providing the parent dma tag.


# 164426 19-Nov-2006 sam

o xscale watchdog timer
o ds1672 RTC on i2c bus
