784733e9ec Change contigmalloc() lower memory bound from 1MB to 0 to improve
chances of allocations succeeding on systems with small amounts of
RAM.

98a229f65e As suggested by phk, unconditionalize BPF support in these drivers. Since
there are stubs compiled into the kernel if BPF support is not enabled,
there aren't any problems with unresolved symbols. The modules in /modules
are compiled with BPF support enabled anyway, so the most this will do is
bloat GENERIC a little.

9e4c647c74 Tweak these for what I hope is the last time: change the DRIVER_MODULE()
declaration for the interface driver from "foo" to "if_foo" but leave the
declaration for the miibus attached to the interface driver alone. This
lets the internal module name be "if_foo" while still allowing the miibus
instances to attach to "foo."

This should allow ifconfig to autoload driver modules again without
breaking the miibus attach.

0355003f26 Un-do the changes to the DRIVER_MODULE() declarations in these drivers.
This whole idea isn't going to work until somebody makes the bus/kld
code smarter. The idea here is to change the module's internal name
from "foo" to "if_foo" so that ifconfig can tell a network driver from
a non-network one. However doing this doesn't work correctly no matter
how you slice it. For everything to work, you have to change the name
in both the driver_t struct and the DRIVER_MODULE() declaration. The
problems are:

- If you change the name in both places, then the kernel thinks that
  the device's name is now "if_foo", so you get things like:

if_foo0: <FOO ethernet> irq foo at device foo on pcifoo
if_foo0: Ethernet address: foo:foo:foo:foo:foo:foo

  This is bogus. Now the device name doesn't agree with the logical
  interface name. There's no reason for this, and it violates the
  principle of least astonishment.

- If you leave the name in the driver_t struct as "foo" and only
  change the names in the DRIVER_MODULE() declaration to "if_foo" then
  attaching drivers to child devices doesn't work because the names don't
  agree. This breaks miibus: drivers that need to have miibuses and PHY
  drivers attached never get them.

In other words: damned if you do, damned if you don't.

This needs to be thought through some more. Since the drivers that
use miibus are broken, I have to change these all back in order to
make them work again. Yes this will stop ifconfig from being able
to demand load driver modules. On the whole, I'd rather have that
than having the drivers not work at all.

fac1f39b19 Grrr. Okay, changing the devnames was a bad idea. Put them back the way
they were.

b95a9362a0 Fix the strings in the driver_t structs so that they match the new names
in the DRIVER_MODULES() declarations. *sigh*

abad681b03 Goofed and didn't change the second DRIVER_MODULE() linking these with
the miibus.

518dee7dbb Add a pointer to "controller miibus0" for people who will not read the
commit messages or GENERIC and insist on running -CURRENT.
It probably won't work, but it's worth a try.

820f359d7e Change the cast in pci_map_port() from u_short * to pci_port_t * so it
compiles cleanly on the Alpha.  (On the alpha, the port type is an int,
not a short).
Cast a couple of pointers to ints via 'uintptr_t' rather than 'unsigned
int' since uintptr_t is long (64 bit) on Alpha, as are pointers.

fb212aff15 Remove unneeded line of code that got left behind when I converted this
driver to use bus_space_read_foo()/bus_space_write_foo(). The line is not
visible unless you compile the driver to use PCI memory mapped mode, which
not done by default, but it should be fixed anyway.

579f45fa60 Simplify the COMPAT_PCI_DRIVER/DATA_SET hack. We can add:
#define COMPAT_PCI_DRIVER(name,data) DATA_SET(pcidevice_set,data)
.. to 2.2.x and 3.x if people think it's worth it.  Driver writers can do
this if it's not defined.  (The reason for this is that I'm trying to
progressively eliminate use of linker_sets where it hurts modularity and
runtime load capability, and these DATA_SET's keep getting in the way.)

96b3554e5c Use COMPAT_PCI_DRIVER() for registration if it exists. This shouldn't
hurt the driver portability to 3.x too much for where drivers are shared.

e4d0044c3a Stability fixes:
- In wb_rxeof(), if the received packet is less than MINCLSIZE bytes,
  copy it to an mbuf chain so as to be more frugal in our use of mbuf
  clusters.

- The Winbond chip, like the ASIX, wants the 'TX interrupt request'
  bit set in the _first_ fragment of a transmitted frame, not the
  last. (At least the Winbond manual states this unambiguously; too
  bad I wasn't paying attention when I read it the first time.)

- Turn off the transmit threshold mechanism (initialize the threshold
  to 0). This effectively puts the chip in 'store and forward' mode
  which seems to cut down on transmit errors a little. It may also
  reduce transmit performace a bit, but I'm willing to do that if it
  means better reliability.

368a6b0214 Trim the ethernet CRC from received frames manually in wb_rxeof().
The Winbond chip always includes the CRC with every received frame,
and I can't find anything in the Winbond manual that indicates you can
program it not to do this.

726ff6a158 An early Christmas present: add driver support for a whole bunch of
PCI fast ethernet adapters, plus man pages.

if_pn.c: Netgear FA310TX model D1, LinkSys LNE100TX, Matrox FastNIC 10/100,
         various other PNIC devices

if_mx.c: NDC Communications SOHOware SFA100 (Macronix 98713A), various
         other boards based on the Macronix 98713, 98713A, 98715, 98715A
         and 98725 chips

if_vr.c: D-Link DFE530-TX, other boards based on the VIA Rhine and
         Rhine II chips (note: the D-Link and certain other cards
         that actually use a Rhine II chip still return the PCI
         device ID of the Rhine I. I don't know why, and it doesn't
         really matter since the driver treats both chips the same
         anyway.)

if_wb.c: Trendware TE100-PCIE and various other cards based on the
         Winbond W89C840F chip (the Trendware card is identical to
         the sample boards Winbond sent me, so who knows how many
         clones there are running around)

All drivers include support for ifmedia, BPF and hardware multicast
filtering.

Also updated GENERIC, LINT, RELNOTES.TXT, userconfig and
sysinstall device list.

I also have a driver for the ASIX AX88140A in the works.
