There are 4 independent knobs in T5+ chips to include or exclude PAUSE
frames from the "total frames" and "multicast frames" counters in either
direction. This change lets the driver deal with any combination of
these settings.
contiguous regions in an mbuf chain.
If the payload of an mbuf ends at a page boundary count_mbuf_nsegs would
incorrectly consider the next mbuf's payload physically contiguous based
solely on a KVA comparison.

come up as 't6nex' nexus devices with 'cc' ports hanging off them.
The T6 firmware and configuration files will be added as soon as they
are released. For now the driver will try to work with whatever
firmware and configuration is on the card's flash.

The cxgbev/cxlv driver supports Virtual Function devices for Chelsio
T4 and T4 adapters. The VF devices share most of their code with the
existing PF4 driver (cxgbe/cxl) and as such the VF device driver
currently depends on the PF4 driver.
Similar to the cxgbe/cxl drivers, the VF driver includes a t4vf/t5vf
PCI device driver that attaches to the VF device. It then creates
child cxgbev/cxlv devices representing ports assigned to the VF.
By default, the PF driver assigns a single port to each VF.
t4vf_hw.c contains VF-specific routines from the shared code used to
fetch VF-specific parameters from the firmware.
t4_vf.c contains the VF-specific PCI device driver and includes its
own attach routine.
VF devices are required to use a different firmware request when
transmitting packets (which in turn requires a different CPL message
to encapsulate messages). This alternate firmware request does not
permit chaining multiple packets in a single message, so each packet
results in a firmware request. In addition, the different CPL message
requires more detailed information when enabling hardware checksums,
so parse_pkt() on VF devices must examine L2 and L3 headers for all
packets (not just TSO packets) for VF devices. Finally, L2 checksums
on non-UDP/non-TCP packets do not work reliably (the firmware trashes
the IPv4 fragment field), so IPv4 checksums for such packets are
calculated in software.
Most of the other changes in the non-VF-specific code are to expose
various variables and functions private to the PF driver so that they
can be used by the VF driver.
Note that a limited subset of cxgbetool functions are supported on VF
devices including register dumps, scheduler classes, and clearing of
statistics. In addition, TOE is not supported on VF devices, only for
the PF interfaces.

Differential Revision: https://reviews.freebsd.org/D7599
If a packet contains the Ethernet header (14 bytes) in the first mbuf
and the payload (IP + UDP + data) in the second mbuf, then the attempt
to fetch the l3hdr will return a NULL pointer. The first loop iteration
will drop len to zero and exit the loop without setting 'p'. However,
the desired data is at the start of the second mbuf, so the correct
behavior is to loop around and let the conditional set 'p' to m_data of
the next mbuf (and leave offset as 0).
