remove unnecessary accesses to interrupt mask registers in
device_shutdown handler because driver puts the controller into
reset state.
With these changes, msk(4) now survive from heavy RX traffic(1byte
UDP frame) while reboot is in progress.

does. Without this change, Yukon Extreme seems to generate lots of
RX FIFO overruns even though controller has available RX buffers.
These excessive RX FIFO overruns generated lots of pause frames
which in turn killed devices plugged into switch. It seems there is
still occasional RX frame corruption on Yukon Extreme but this
change seems to fix the pause frame storm.

Just relying on status LE ownership of status block seems to cause
poor performance. Always read current status index register first
and then check status ownership as we had before. Accessing status
index register seems to trigger immediate status update if
controller have pending status updates.

configuration space on Yukon Ultra(88E8056) such that accesses to
these registers were NOPs which in turn make msk(4) instable on
this controller. Use indirect access method to access
PCI_OUR_REG_[1-5] registers. This should fix a long standing
instability bug which prevented msk(4) working on Yukon Ultra.

Yukon FE and Yukon Ultra2. These controllers provide very simple
checksum computation mechanism and it requires additional pseudo
header checksum computation in upper stack. Even though I couldn't
see much performance difference with/without Rx checksum offloading
it may help notebook based controllers.
Actually controller can compute two checksum value by giving
different starting position of checksum computation on received
frame. However, for long time, Marvell's checksum offloading engine
have been known to have several silicon bugs so don't blindly trust
computed partial checksum value. Instead, compute partial checksum
twice by giving the same checksum computation position and compare
the result. If the value is different it's clear indication of
hardware bug. This configuration lose IP checksum offloading
capability but I think it's better to take safe route.
Note, Rx checksum offloading for Yukon XL was still disabled due to
known silicon bug.
does not generate excessive interrupts any more so we don't need
to have two copies of interrupt handler.
While I'm here remove two STAT_PUT_IDX register accesses in LE
status event handler. After r204539 msk(4) always sync status LEs
so there is no need to resort to reading STAT_PUT_IDX register to
know the end of status LE processing. Just trust status LE's
ownership bit.
countdown timer register. The timer resolution may vary among
controllers but the value would be represented by core clock
cycles. msk(4) will automatically computes number of required clock
cycles from given micro-seconds unit.
The default interrupt holdoff timer value is 100us which will
ensure less than 10k interrupts under load. The timer value can be
changed with dev.mskc.0.int_holdoff sysctl node.
Note, the interrupt moderation is shared resource on dual-port
controllers so you can't use separate interrupt moderation value
for each port. This means we can't stop interrupt moderation in
driver stop routine. Also have msk_tick() reclaim transmitted Tx
buffers as safety belt. With this change there is no need to check
missing Tx completion interrupt in watchdog handler, so remove it.
full-duplex. Previously msk(4) used to allow flow-control on
1000baseT half-duplex media. Also GMAC pause is enabled if link
partner is capable of handling it.
While I'm here use IFM_OPTIONS instead of using IFM_GMASK to check
optional flags of link.
for controllers like 88E8053 which reports two MSI messages.
Because we don't get anything useful things with 2 MSI messages,
allocating 1 MSI message would be more sane approach.
While I'm here, enable MSI for dual-port controllers too. Because
status block is shared for dual-port controllers, I don't think
msk(4) will encounter problem for using MSI on dual-port
controllers.
The register offset is not valid on 88E8072 controller. Also don't
blindly increase max read request size to 4096, instead, use 2048
which seems to be more sane value and only change the value if the
hardware default size(512) was used on that register.
For PCIX controllers, use system defined constant rather than using
magic value.
While I'm here stop showing negotiated link width.
not require checksum LE configuration if checksum start and write
position is the same as before. So keep track last checksum start
and write position and insert new LE whenever the position is
changed. This reduces number of LEs used in TX path as well as
slightly enhance TX performance.

(Missed this driver in the earlier commit.)
showing the message creates other side-effects. Remove the Rx
FIFO overrun message in interrupt handler. msk(4) should recover
from the FIFO overruns without any user intervention. Users can
still check the Rx FIFO overrun counter from MAC MIB statistics
maintained in driver(dev.msk.0.stats.rx.overflows).
Unlike most other PHYs there is no easy way to know which media
type the PHY supports on Marvell PHYs. MIIF_HAVEFIBER flags is now
passed via bus-specific instance variable of a device. While I'm
here add 88E1112 specific work around to set SIGDET polarity low.

IF_ADDR_UNLOCK() across network device drivers when accessing the

For two wireless drivers, remove unnecessary locking, since they
don't actually access the multicast address list.

These controllers use newer descriptor format and the new descriptor
format uses status LE to indicate the status of checksum. Rx
checksummed value used in previous controllers were very cryptic
and I failed to understand how to use them. In addition most
controllers in previous generations had Rx checksum offloading bug.
While I'm here introduce a MSK_FLAG_NORX_CSUM flag to bypass
checking Rx checksum offloading as Yukon FE+ A0 has status LE bug.
this feature hardware automatically computes TCP/UDP payload
offset. Introduce MSK_FLAG_AUTOTX_CSUM to mark the capability.
Yukon Extreme B0 revision is known to have a silicon for the
feature so disable it. Yukon Extreme B0 still can do Tx checksum
offloading but CPU have to compute TCP/UDP payload offset. To
enable traditional checksum offloading, disable automatic Tx
checksum calculation capability.
Yukon Extreme A0 revision could not use store-and-forward mode for
jumbo frames(silicon bug) so disable Tx checksum offloading for
jumbo frames.
I believe controllers that have MSK_FLAG_AUTOTX_CSUM capability or
new descriptor format do not have Tx checksum offload bug so
disable checksum offloading workaround for for short frames.

Yukon Extreme uses new descriptor format for TSO and has Tx frame
parser which greatly reduces CPU cycles spent in computing TCP/UDP
payload offset calculation in Tx checksum offloading path. The new
descriptor format also removed TCP/UDP payload computation for TSO
which in turn results in better TSO performance. It seems Yukon
Extreme has a lot of new (unknown) features but only basic
offloading is supported at this time. So far there are two known
issues.
o Sometimes Rx overrun errors happen when pulling data over
gigabit link. Running over 100Mbps seem to ok.
o Ethernet hardware address shows all-zeroed value on 88E8070.
Assigning ethernet address with ifconfig is necessary to make it
work.
Support for Yukon Extreme is not perfect but it would be better
than having a non-working device. Special thanks to jbh who fixed
several bugs of initial patch.

severe silicon bugs that can't handle VLAN hardware tagging as well
as status LE writeback bug. The status LE writeback bug is so
critical we can't trust status word of received frame. To accept
frames on Yukon FE+ A0 msk(4) just do minimal check for received
frames and pass them to upper stack. This means msk(4) can pass
corrupted frames to upper layer. You have been warned!
Also I supposed RX_GMF_FL_THR to be 32bits register but Linux
driver treated it as 16bit register so follow their leads. At least
this does not seem to break msk(4) on Yukon FE+.

The GM_GP_CTRL register may have stale content from previous link
information so clearing it will make hardware update the register

While I'm here remove stale comment.

fast ethernet controller is not valid one so make sure gigabit link
is allowed for this controller.
Whenever we lost link, check whether Rx/Tx MACs were enabled. If both
MAC are not active, do not try to disable it again.
