dbac8ff400 Move the agp(4) driver from sys/pci to sys/dev/agp. __FreeBSD_version was
bumped to 800004 to note the change though userland apps should not be
affected since they use <sys/agpio.h> rather than the headers in
sys/dev/agp.

3be4cb0b4a Merge Neterion if_nxge driver version 2.0.9.11230 with the following
changes:

  01 -  Enhanced LRO:
  LRO feature is extended to support multi-buffer mode. Previously,
  Ethernet frames received in contiguous buffers were offloaded.
  Now, frames received in multiple non-contiguous buffers can be
  offloaded, as well. The driver now supports LRO for jumbo frames.

  02 - Locks Optimization:
  The driver code was re-organized to limit the use of locks.
  Moreover, lock contention was reduced by replacing wait locks
  with try locks.

  03 - Code Optimization:
  The driver code was re-factored  to eliminate some memcpy
  operations.  Fast path loops were optimized.

  04 - Tag Creations:
  Physical Buffer Tags are now optimized based upon frame size.
  For better performance, Physical Memory Maps are now re-used.

  05 - Configuration:
  Features such as TSO, LRO, and Interrupt Mode can be configured
  either at load or at run time. Rx buffer mode (mode 1 or mode 2)
  can be configured at load time through kenv.

  06 - Driver Statistics:
  Run time statistics are enhanced to provide better visibility
  into the driver performance.

  07 - Bug Fixes:
  The driver contains fixes for the problems discovered and
  reported since last submission.

  08 - MSI support:
  Added Message Signaled Interrupt feature which currently uses 1
  message.

  09  Removed feature:
  Rx 3 buffer mode feature has been removed. Driver now supports 1,
  2 and 5 buffer modes of which 2 and 5 buffer modes can be used
  for header separation.

  10  Compiler warning:
  Fixed compiler warning when compiled for 32 bit system.

  11 Copyright notice:
  Source files are updated with the proper copyright notice.

d556638404 Split /dev/nvram driver out of isa/clock.c for i386 and amd64. I have not
refactored it to be a generic device.
Instead of being part of the standard kernel, there is now a 'nvram' device
for i386/amd64.  It is in DEFAULTS like io and mem, and can be turned off
with 'nodevice nvram'.  This matches the previous behavior when it was
first committed.

1ed3fed743 o Revert the part of if_gem.c rev. 1.35 which added a call to gem_stop()
to gem_attach() as the former access softc members not yet initialized
  at that time and gem_reset() actually is enough to stop the chip. [1]
o Revise the use of gem_bitwait(); add bus_barrier() calls before calling
  gem_bitwait() to ensure the respective bit has been written before we
  starting polling on it and poll for the right bits to change, f.e. even
  though we only reset RX we have to actually wait for both GEM_RESET_RX
  and GEM_RESET_TX to clear. Add some additional gem_bitwait() calls in
  places we've been missing them according to the GEM documentation.
  Along with this some excessive DELAYs, which probably only were added
  because of bugs in gem_bitwait() and its use in the first place, as
  well as as have of an gem_bitwait() reimplementation in gem_reset_tx()
  were removed.
o Add gem_reset_rxdma() and use it to deal with GEM_MAC_RX_OVERFLOW errors
  more gracefully as unlike gem_init_locked() it resets the RX DMA engine
  only, causing no link loss and the FIFOs not to be cleared. Also use it
  deal with GEM_INTR_RX_TAG_ERR errors, with previously were unhandled.
  This was based on information obtained from the Linux GEM and OpenSolaris
  ERI drivers.
o Turn on workarounds for silicon bugs in the Apple GMAC variants.
  This was based on information obtained from the Darwin GMAC and Linux GEM
  drivers.
o Turn on "infinite" (i.e. maximum 31 * 64 bytes in length) DMA bursts.
  This greatly improves especially RX performance.
o Optimize the RX path, this consists of:
  - kicking the receiver as soon as we've a spare descriptor in gem_rint()
    again instead of just once after all the ready ones have been handled;
  - kicking the receiver the right way, i.e. as outlined in the GEM
    documentation in batches of 4 and by pointing it to the descriptor
    after the last valid one;
  - calling gem_rint() before gem_tint() in gem_intr() as gem_tint() may
    take quite a while;
  - doubling the size of the RX ring to 256 descriptors.
  Overall the RX performance of a GEM in a 1GHz Sun Fire V210 was improved
  from ~100Mbit/s to ~850Mbit/s.
o In gem_add_rxbuf() don't assign the newly allocated mbuf to rxs_mbuf
  before calling bus_dmamap_load_mbuf_sg(), if bus_dmamap_load_mbuf_sg()
  fails we'll free the newly allocated mbuf, unable to recycle the
  previous one but a NULL pointer dereference instead.
o In gem_init_locked() honor the return value of gem_meminit().
o Simplify gem_ringsize() and dont' return garbage in the default case.
  Based on OpenBSD.
o Don't turn on MAC control, MIF and PCS interrupts unless GEM_DEBUG is
  defined as we don't need/use these interrupts for operation.
o In gem_start_locked() sync the DMA maps of the descriptor rings before
  every kick of the transmitter and not just once after enqueuing all
  packets as the NIC might instantly start transmitting after we kicked
  it the first time.
o Keep state of the link state and use it to enable or disable the MAC
  in gem_mii_statchg() accordingly as well as to return early from
  gem_start_locked() in case the link is down. [3]
o Initialize the maximum frame size to a sane value.
o In gem_mii_statchg() enable carrier extension if appropriate.
o Increment if_ierrors in case of an GEM_MAC_RX_OVERFLOW error and in
  gem_eint(). [3]
o Handle IFF_ALLMULTI correctly; don't set it if we've turned promiscuous
  group mode on and don't clear the flag if we've disabled promiscuous
  group mode (these were mostly NOPs though). [2]
o Let gem_eint() also report GEM_INTR_PERR errors.
o Move setting sc_variant from gem_pci_probe() to gem_pci_attach() as
  device probe methods are not supposed to touch the softc.
o Collapse sc_inited and sc_pci into bits for sc_flags.
o Add CTASSERTs ensuring that GEM_NRXDESC and GEM_NTXDESC are set to
  legal values.
o Correctly set up for 802.3x flow control, though #ifdef out the code
  that actually enables it as this needs more testing and mainly a proper
  framework to support it.
o Correct and add some conversions from hard-coded functions names to
  __func__ which were borked or forgotten in if_gem.c rev. 1.42.
o Use PCIR_BAR instead of a homegrown macro.
o Replace sc_enaddr[6] with sc_enaddr[ETHER_ADDR_LEN].
o In gem_pci_attach() in case attaching fails release the resources in
  the opposite order they were allocated.
o Make gem_reset() static to if_gem.c as it's not needed outside that
  module.
o Remove the GEM_GIGABIT flag and the associated code; GEM_GIGABIT was
  never set and the associated code was in the wrong place.
o Remove sc_mif_config; it was only used to cache the contents of the
  respective register within gem_attach().
o Remove the #ifdef'ed out NetBSD/OpenBSD code for establishing a suspend
  hook as it will never be used on FreeBSD.
o Also probe Apple Intrepid 2 GMAC and Apple Shasta GMAC, add support for
  Apple K2 GMAC. Based on OpenBSD.
o Add support for Sun GBE/P cards, or in other words actually add support
  for cards based on GEM to gem(4). This mainly consists of adding support
  for the TBI of these chips. Along with this the PHY selection code was
  rewritten to hardcode the PHY number for certain configurations as for
  example the PHY of the on-board ERI of Blade 1000 shows up twice causing
  no link as the second incarnation is isolated.
  These changes were ported from OpenBSD with some additional improvements
  and modulo some bugs.
o Add code to if_gem_pci.c allowing to read the MAC-address from the VPD on
  systems without Open Firmware.
  This is an improved version of my variant of the respective code in
  if_hme_pci.c
o Now that gem(4) is MI enable it for all archs.

83dcc133d8 Rewrite the EC driver event model. The main goal is to avoid
polling/interrupt-driven fallback and instead use polling only during
boot and pure interrupt-driven mode after boot.  Polled mode could be
relegated completely to a legacy role if we could enable interrupts
during boot.  Polled mode can be forced after boot by setting
debug.acpi.ec.polled="1", i.e. if there are timeouts.

- Use polling only during boot, shutdown, or if requested by the user.
  Otherwise, use a generation count of GPEs, incremented atomically.  This
  prevents an old status value from being used if the EC is really slow
  and the same condition (i.e. multiple IBEs for a write transaction) is
  being checked.
- Check for and run the query handler directly if the SCI bit is set in
  the status register during boot.  Previously, the query handler wouldn't
  run until interrupts were finally enabled late in boot.
- During boot and after starting a command, check if the event appears
  to already have occurred before we even start waiting.  If so, it's
  possible the EC is very slow and we might accept an old status value.
  Print a warning in this case.  Once we've booted, interrupt-driven mode
  should work just fine but polled mode could be unreliable.  There's not
  much more we can do about this until interrupts are enabled during boot.
- In the above case, we also do one final check if the interrupt-driven
  mode gets a timeout.  If the status is complete, it will force the
  system back into polled mode since interrupt mode doesn't work.  For
  polled mode during boot, if the status appears to be already complete
  before beginning the check loop, it waits 10 us before actually checking
  the status, just in case the EC is really slow and hasn't gotten to work
  on the new request yet.
- Use upper-case hex for the _Qxx method
- Use device_printf for errors, don't hide them under verbose
- Increase default total timeout to 750 ms and decrease polling interval
  to 5 us.
- Don't pass the status value via the softc.  Just read it directly.
- Remove the mutex. We use the sx lock for transaction serialization
  with the query handler.
- Remove the Intel copyright notice as no code of theirs was ever
  present in this file (verified against rev 1.1)
- Allow KTR module-only builds for ease of testing

b28624fde6 Update snd_emu10kx driver with recent perforce changes (and few
other changes too).

(without any real order)

1. Use device_get_nameunit for mutex naming
2. Add timer for low-latency playback
3. Move most mixer controls from sysctls to mixer(8) controls.
   This is a largest part of this patch.
4. Add analog/digital switch (as a temporary sysctl)
5. Get back support for low-bitrate playback (with help of (2))
6. Change locking for exclusive I/O. Writing to non-PTR register
   is almost safe and does not need to be ordered with PTR operations.
7. Disable MIDI until we get it to detach properly and fix memory
   managment problems.
8. Enable multichannel playback by default. It is as stable as
   single-channel mode. Multichannel recording is still an
   experimental feature.
9. Multichannel options can be changed by loader tunables.
10. Add a way to disable card from a loader tunable.
11. Add new PCI IDs.
12. Debugger settings are loader tunables now.
14. Remove some unused variables.
15. Mark pcm sub-devices MPSAFE.
16. Partially revert (bus_setup_intr -> snd_setup_intr) since it need
    to be done independently

f9ae02802f - Enable static building of mxge(4) and its firmware.
- Add custom .c wrappers for the firmware, rather than the standard
  firmware(9) generated firmware objects to work around toolchain
  problems on ia64 involving linking objects produced by
  ld -b -binary into the kernel.

- Move from using Myricom's ".dat" firmware blobs to using Myricom's
  zlib compressed ".h" firmware header files.  This is done to
  facilitate the custom wrappers, and saves a fair amount of wired
  memory in the case where the firmware is built in, or preloaded.

- Fix two compile issues in mxge which only appear on non-i386/amd64.

- Don't build libatm
- Don't include ATM parts in rescue or sysinstall
- Don't install sample configuration files and documents

68e8e04e93 Update 802.11 wireless support:
o major overhaul of the way channels are handled: channels are now
  fully enumerated and uniquely identify the operating characteristics;
  these changes are visible to user applications which require changes
o make scanning support independent of the state machine to enable
  background scanning and roaming
o move scanning support into loadable modules based on the operating
  mode to enable different policies and reduce the memory footprint
  on systems w/ constrained resources
o add background scanning in station mode (no support for adhoc/ibss
  mode yet)
o significantly speedup sta mode scanning with a variety of techniques
o add roaming support when background scanning is supported; for now
  we use a simple algorithm to trigger a roam: we threshold the rssi
  and tx rate, if either drops too low we try to roam to a new ap
o add tx fragmentation support
o add first cut at 802.11n support: this code works with forthcoming
  drivers but is incomplete; it's included now to establish a baseline
  for other drivers to be developed and for user applications
o adjust max_linkhdr et. al. to reflect 802.11 requirements; this eliminates
  prepending mbufs for traffic generated locally
o add support for Atheros protocol extensions; mainly the fast frames
  encapsulation (note this can be used with any card that can tx+rx
  large frames correctly)
o add sta support for ap's that beacon both WPA1+2 support
o change all data types from bsd-style to posix-style
o propagate noise floor data from drivers to net80211 and on to user apps
o correct various issues in the sta mode state machine related to handling
  authentication and association failures
o enable the addition of sta mode power save support for drivers that need
  net80211 support (not in this commit)
o remove old WI compatibility ioctls (wicontrol is officially dead)
o change the data structures returned for get sta info and get scan
  results so future additions will not break user apps
o fixed tx rate is now maintained internally as an ieee rate and not an
  index into the rate set; this needs to be extended to deal with
  multi-mode operation
o add extended channel specifications to radiotap to enable 11n sniffing

Drivers:
o ath: add support for bg scanning, tx fragmentation, fast frames,
       dynamic turbo (lightly tested), 11n (sniffing only and needs
       new hal)
o awi: compile tested only
o ndis: lightly tested
o ipw: lightly tested
o iwi: add support for bg scanning (well tested but may have some
       rough edges)
o ral, ural, rum: add suppoort for bg scanning, calibrate rssi data
o wi: lightly tested

This work is based on contributions by Atheros, kmacy, sephe, thompsa,
mlaier, kevlo, and others.  Much of the scanning work was supported by
Atheros.  The 11n work was supported by Marvell.

3c7e4206c2 Add ofw_bus_if.h as a dependency on sparc64. Without this sparc64 kernel
builds had been succeeding if run serially but could fail if run in
parallel because the bge module build might start before ofw_bus_if.h
got created as part of the mainline kernel build.

3b7917d766 - Reduce number of atomic operations needed to be implemented in asm by
implementing some of them using existing ones.
- Allow to compile ZFS on all archs and use atomic operations surrounded
  by global mutex on archs we don't have or can't have all atomic
  operations needed by ZFS.
