e50d35e6c6 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.

e21e2eea58 These drivers only set if_timer but never set if_watchdog. Just remove
the assignments to if_timer.

eb956cd041 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.

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.

07cb08fd48 Directly initialize nxge's ifaddrp pointer to ifnetp->if_addr rather
than indirecting through ifaddr_byindex, which makes things easier with
respect to virtualized network stacks.

89200512b3 Fix warnings.
nxge: cast page size fragments down to (int). If the vm's demand paging
PAGE_SIZE is ever too big for that, we've got far bigger problems.
ofw: move va_start() a little earlier. gcc-4.2 doesn't like us modifying
the last arg before the va_start().

fd3ddbd038 Neterion Xframe 10GbE Server/Storage adapter driver.
The nxge driver provides support for Neterion Xframe-I and Xframe-II
adapters. The driver supports TCP Segmentation Offload (TSO/LSO),
Jumbo frames (5 buffer mode), Header separation (2 and 3 Receive
buffer modes), VLAN, and Promiscuous mode.
