8db3059d03 Significant modifications to the SCSI controller support sections in both
files.  They are now both basically the same.  I also modified the driver
list in HARDWARE.TXT:  add the adw and isp drivers, and indicate that the
uha driver isn't yet supported under CAM.

This includes specific mention of all supported NCR and BusLogic models,
additional qualification of the supported DPT and QLogic models, and some
additions to the list of supported onboard Adaptec chips.

The hope is, of course, that this will lead to fewer questions like "is the
froboz SCSI controller supported?"

I think the formatting of the new entries looks okay, but someone with a
better eye for things like that might want to look at this.

95e6a1e05e Qualify Adaptec 2920 support -- only the 2920C is supported. The 2920 is a
rebadged Future Domain card that is not supported.

Also, only the DPT SmartRAID III and IV are supported.  (The SmartRAID V
isn't yet supported by the DPT driver.)

31188d61c1 Add driver support (and man page) for PCI fast ethernet cards based
on the ASIX AX88140A chip. Update /sys/conf/files, RELNOTES.TXT,
/sys/i388/i386/userconfig.c, sysinstall/devices.c, GENERIC and LINT
accordingly.

For now, the only board that I know of that uses this chip is the
Alfa Inc. GFC2204. (Its predecessor, the GFC2202, was a DEC tulip card.)
Thanks again to Ulf for obtaining the board for me. If anyone runs
across another, please feel free to update the man page and/or the
release notes. (The same applies for the other drivers.)

FreeBSD should now have support for all of the DEC tulip workalike
chipsets currently on the market (Macronix, Lite-On, Winbond, ASIX).
And unless I'm mistaken, it should also have support for all PCI fast
ethernet chipsets in general (except maybe the SMC FEAST chip, which
nobody seems to ever use, including SMC). Now if only we could convince
3Com, Intel or whoever to cough up some documentation for gigabit
ethernet hardware.

Also updated RELNOTEX.TXT to mention that the SVEC PN102TX is supported
by the Macronix driver (assuming you actually have an SVEC PN102TX with
a Macronix chip on it; I tried to order a PN102TX once and got a box
labeled 'Hawking Technology PN102TX' that had a VIA Rhine board inside
it).

6a5359cac2 Correct the name of the SMC 1211-TX: it's called the EZ Card 10/100 PCI,
not EtherEZ.

989c9647f2 if_rl.c: make a small tweak to properly handle the Accton MPX 5030/5038
as a RealTek 8139
if_rlreg.h: use bus_space_read_X() in CSR_READ_X() macros instead of
            directly calling inb()/outb() etc...
rl.4 + RELNOTES.TXT: mention that SMC EtherEZ PCI 1211-TX is supported
                     by the RealTek driver

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.

this name change, I'll be a happy man.
