This makes our naming scheme more closely match other systems and the
expectations of much third-party software. MIPS builds which are little-endian
should require and exhibit no changes. Big-endian TARGET_ARCHes must be
changed:
From: To:
mipseb mips
mipsn32eb mipsn32
mips64eb mips64
An entry has been added to UPDATING and some foot-shooting protection (complete
with warnings which should become errors in the near future) to the top-level
base system Makefile.
New kernel events can be added at various location for sampling or counting.
This will for example allow easy system profiling whatever the processor is
with known tools like pmcstat(8).
Simultaneous usage of software PMC and hardware PMC is possible, for example
looking at the lock acquire failure, page fault while sampling on
instructions.

The on-chip SD slots do not have PCI BARs corresponding to them, so
this has to be handled in the custom SoC memory allocation.
Provide memory resource for rids corresponding to BAR 0 and 1 in
the custom allocation code.
The XLP on-chip devices have PCI configuration headers, but some of the
devices need custom resource allocation code.
- devices with no MEM/IO BARs with registers in PCIe extended reg
space have to be handled in memory resource allocation
- devices without INTPIN/INTLINE in PCI header can be supported
by having these faked with a shadow register.
- Some devices does not allow 8/16 bit access to the register space,
he default bus space cannot be used for these.
Subclass pci and override attach and resource allocation methods to
take care of this.
Remove earlier code which did this partially.
Move XLP PCI UART device to sys/mips/nlm/dev/ directory. Other
drivers for the XLP SoC devices will be added here as well.
Update uart_cpu_xlp.c and uart_pci_xlp.c use macros for uart port,
speed and IO frequency.
Features:
- network driver for the four 10G interfaces and two management ports
on XLP 8xx.
- Support 4xx and 3xx variants of the processor.
- Source code and firmware building for the 16 mips32r2 micro-code engines
in the Network Accelerator.
- Basic initialization code for Packet ordering Engine.

On XLP evaluation platform, the board information is stored
in an I2C eeprom and the network block configuration is available
from a CPLD connected to the GBU (NOR flash bus). Add support
for both of these.
Support for the Security and RSA blocks on XLP SoC. Even though
the XLP supports many more algorithms, only the ones supported
in OCF have been added.

- XLP supports hardware swap for PCIe IO/MEM accesses. Since we
are in big-endian mode, enable hardware swap and use the normal
bus space.
- move some printfs to bootverbose, and remove others.
- fix SoC device resource allocation code
- Do not use '|' while updating PCIE_BRIDGE_MSI_ADDRL
- some style fixes
In collaboration with: Venkatesh J. V. (venkatesh at netlogicmicro com)
- Replace MIPS24K-specific code with more generic framework that will
make adding new CPU support easier
- Add MIPS24K support for new framework
- Limit backtrace depth to 1 for stability reasons and add option
HWPMC_MIPS_BACKTRACE to override this limitation
As of FreeBSD 8, this driver should not be used. Applications that use
posix_openpt(2) and openpty(3) use the pts(4) that is built into the
kernel unconditionally. If it turns out high profile depend on the
pty(4) module anyway, I'd rather get those fixed. So please report any
issues to me.
The pty(4) module is still available as a kernel module of course, so a
simple `kldload pty' can be used to run old-style pseudo-terminals.
These are needed for some particular port configurations where the default
speed isn't suitable for all link speed types. (Ie, changing 10/100/1000MBit
PLL rate requires a similar MII clock rate, rather than a fixed MII rate.)

function.
From the submitter:
This patch fixes an issue I encountered using an NFS root with an
ar71xx-based MikroTik RouterBoard 450G on -current where the kernel fails
to contact a DHCP/BOOTP server via if_arge when it otherwise should be able
to. This may be the same issue that Monthadar Al Jaberi reported against
an RSPRO on 6 March, as the signature is the same:
%%%
DHCP/BOOTP timeout for server 255.255.255.255
DHCP/BOOTP timeout for server 255.255.255.255

DHCP/BOOTP timeout for server 255.255.255.255

arge0: initialization failed: no memory for rx buffers
DHCP/BOOTP timeout for server 255.255.255.255
arge0: initialization failed: no memory for rx buffers
%%%
The primary issue that I found is that the DHCP/BOOTP message that
bootpc_call() is sending never makes it onto the wire, which I believe is
due to the following:
- Last December, a change was made to the ifioctl that bootpc_call() uses
to adjust the netmask around the sosend().
- The new ioctl (SIOCAIFADDR) performs an if_init when invoked, whereas the
old one (SIOCSIFNETMASK) did not.
- if_arge maintains its own sense of link state in sc->arge_link_status.
- On a single-phy interface, sc->arge_link_status is initialized to 0 in
arge_init_locked().
- sc->arge_link_status remains 0 until a phy state change notification
causes arge_link_task to run, notice the link is up, and set it to 1.
- The inits caused by the ifioctls in bootpc_call are reinitializing the
interface, but not the phy, so sc->arge_link_status goes to 0 and remains
there.
- arge_start_locked() always sees sc->arge_link_status == 0 and returns
without queuing anything.
The attached patch changes arge_init_locked() such that in the single-phy
case, instead of initializing sc->arge_link_status to 0, it runs
arge_link_task() to set it according to the current phy state. This change
has allowed my setup to mount an NFS root successfully.

I had some interesting hangs until I realised I should try flushing the
DDR FIFO register and lo and behold, hangs stopped occuring.
I've put in a few DDR flushes here and there in case people decide to

all superflous.

* Connect to a network with a _lot_ of broadcast traffic

Some of these functions might be good ideas, but their semantics were unclear
