Since we already had 'O_NOP' instructions which always match, all
I needed to do is allow the NOP command to have arbitrary length
(i.e. move its label in a different part of the switch() which
validates instructions).
The kernel must know nothing about comments, everything else is
done in userland (which will be described in the upcoming ipfw2.c
commit).
our unwind information for functions that are entry points into the
kernel. When stepping to the next frame, the unwinder will let us
know when sych a marker was encountered. We use this to stop the
current unwind session, query the trapframe and restart a new
unwind session based on the new trapframe.
The implementation is a bit sloppy, but at this time there are
bigger fish to fry.
default. There were 2 cases where the trace code was in the else-
part of an if-statement without any compound construct to protect
against nullification. The result was that 2 unconditional statements
turned into conditional statements and wrecked havoc.
This fix has been returned to the vendor and in anticipation of a
future import committed onto the vendor branch.
it to the bss section and skips the initialization. This causes all
sorts of havoc because the bogus bss zero code clobbered previously set
variables. All our supported boot loaders already zero the bss, even
kgzip for the elf case. Since we dont generate a.out kernels, the old
a.out bootblocks and the a.out kgzip are not a factor anymore.
modify vendor code (libuwx) with a specific include directive.
The second order advantage is that we can also enable verbosity
in the glue code (ia64/ia64/unwind.c).
(mainly the 3Com 3c996B/BCM5701).
For some reason that I don't fully understand, the 5701 signals PCS
encoding errors as though they were link change events, i.e. the 'link
state changed' bit in the status word of the status block is updated
and an interrupt is generated. This would cause the bge_tick() function
to be invoked and a "gigabit link up" message to be printed on the console.
To avoid this, the interrupt handler now checks the MAC status register
when a link change interrupt is triggered, and it will only call the
bge_tick() function if the 'PCS encoding error detected' bit is clear.
(This change should have no effect on copper NICs since this bit can
only ever be set in TBI mode. I do not know how it affects 5704 NICs
with a BCM8002 SERDES PHY.)
Special thanks to: Sherry Rogers at UCB for allowing me access to one
of their traffic monitor boxes so I could diagnose this problem.
compilation accordingly. The net effect is that tracing is not by
default present and that it can easily be compiled-in.
The tracer uses getenv() and printf(), which cannot be used in all
cases (ie from the debugger) and with this change we improved the
applicability of the unwinder.
This change is made on the vendor branch and given back to the
vendor for possible inclusion in future versions.

the optimal place for the autosizing of memory allocations

A quick outline of the locking strategy:
Since all IOMMUs are synchronized, there is a single lock, iommu_mtx,
which protects the hardware registers (where needed) and the global and
per-IOMMU software states. As soon as the IOMMUs are divorced, each struct
iommu_state will have its own mutex (and the remaining global state
will be moved into the struct).
The dvma rman has its own internal mutex; the TSB slots may only be
accessed by the owner of the corresponding resource, so neither needs
extra protection.
Since there is a second access path to maps via LRU queues, the consumer-
provided locking is not sufficient; therefore, each map which is on a
queue is additionally protected by iommu_mtx (in part, there is one
member which only the map owner may access). Each map on a queue may
be accessed and removed from or repositioned in a queue in any context as
long as the lock is held; only the owner may insert a map.
To reduce lock contention, some bus_dma functions remove the map from
the queue temporarily (on behalf of the map owner) for some operations and
reinsert it when they are done. Shorter operations and operations which are
not done on behalf of the lock owner are completely covered by the lock.
To facilitate the locking, reorganize the streaming buffer handling;
while being there, fix an old oversight which would cause the streaming
buffer to always be flushed, regardless of whether streaming was enabled
in the TSB entry. The streaming buffer is still disabled for now, since
there are a number of drivers which lack critical bus_dmamp_sync() calls.

series, the 8139C+ has a descriptor-based DMA mechanism, and its
performance is actually pretty respectable. Note: the 8139D chip does
not support C+ mode. Only the 8139C+ and 8169 gigE chips support C+ mode.
Supported features:
- RX and TX checksum offload
- hardware VLAN tag insertion/extraction
- TX interrupt moderation using the 8139's on-board timer
Everything should be properly busdma'ed and endian-independent, so
things should work ok on non-x86 platforms. Unfortunately, my call
for testers on this code was met with deafening silence, and I don't
have access to any non-x86 FreeBSD boxes at the moment, so this is
speculation.
The device detection code has been cleaned up a little as well
(thanks to Michal Mertl) for the patches.
There are also updates to the rl(4) man page (which I accidentally
checked in before when I updated the dc(4) man page. Oops.)
Todo: finish support for the 8169 gigabit ethernet chip. This
mainly requires writing an rlgphy driver to handle the 8169's built-in
PHY. This will have to wait until I actually get my hands on an 8169
card for testing though. (I still can't find a source for one in the
U.S. Suggestions/pointers welcome.)

- MN-120 10/100 cardbus (ADMtek Centaur-C, if_dc)
- MN-130 10/100 PCI (ADMtek Centaur-P, if_dc)
Also update dc(4) man page to mention support for MN-120 and MN-130.
* Always use polled mode. The intr approach did not work for many
controllers and required the hw.acpi.ec.event_driven workaround.
* Only use an edge (not level) triggered GPE handler
* Add sc->ec_mtx for locking operations to a single EC. There were
many race conditions earlier between an SCI event and EcRead/Write.
* Use 1 ms as the global lock timeout
* Only acquire global lock if _GLK != 0
* Update EcWaitEvent to use an incremental backoff delay in its
poll loop. Wait 50 ms max instead of 10. Most ECs respond
in < 5 us (50 us when heavily loaded). However, some time out
occasionally even with a 10 ms timeout. For delays past 1 ms, use
msleep instead of DELAY to give SCI interrupts a chance to occur.
* Add EcCommand to send a command and wait for the appropriate event.
* The hw.acpi.ec.event_driven tunable is no longer applicable and
has been removed.
Ideas from: Linux
bus_dma_tag_create. We need to be sure that our packets are
kept in-sequence (that's how ATM is supposed to work) and
therefor use BUS_DMA_NOWAIT in all calls to bus_dmamap_load.
For memory allocated with bus_dmamem_alloc the use of anything
other than NULL arguments for the locking is anyway bogus because
this memory never should need bouncing and hence the load should never
be defered.
Allow the receipt of OAM and RM cells on raw connections. Caveat: it seems
that RM cells are still processed by the hardware even when we open the
connection as UBR.
register, present only on 3c90xB and later NICs. This meant that you could
not use a 1500 byte MTU with VLANs on original 3c905/3c900 cards (boomerang
chipset). The boomerang chip does support large frames though, just not
in the same way: you can set the 'allow large frames' bit in the MAC
control register to receive frames up to 4K in size.
Changes:
- Set the 'allow large frames' bit for boomerang chips and increase
the packet size register for cyclone and later chips. This allows
us to use IFCAP_VLAN_MTU on all supported xl(4) NICs.
- Actually set the IFCAP_VLAN_MTU flag in the capabilities word
in xl_attach().
- Change the method used to detect older boomerang chips. My 3c575C
cardbus NIC was being incorrectly identified as 3c90x chip instead
of 3c90xB because the capabilities word in its EEPROM reports
a bizzare value. In addition to checking for the supportsNoTxLength
bit, also check for the absence of the supportsLargePackets bit.
Both of these cases denote a 3c90xB chip.
- Make RX and TX checksums configurable via the SIOCSIFCAP ioctl.
- Avoid an unecessary le32toh() in xl_rxeof(): we already have the
received frame size in the lower 16 bits of rxstat, no need to
read it again.
Tested with 3c905-TX, 3c900-TPO, 3c980C and 3c575C NICs.

not able to avoid sign extending the VM_MAXUSER_ADDRESS/USRSTACK values.

- Don't bother probing a generic ISA bus device if isab0 already exists.
Some BIOSes place an ACPI psuedo-device with the HID of a generic ISA bus
device under the PCI-ISA bridge device. This is not the best solution
but will work for now. The isa bus driver only allows for one ISA bus
anyways.
