- Stateful TCP offload drivers for Terminator 3 and 4 (T3 and T4) ASICs.
These are available as t3_tom and t4_tom modules that augment cxgb(4)
and cxgbe(4) respectively. The cxgb/cxgbe drivers continue to work as
usual with or without these extra features.
- iWARP driver for Terminator 3 ASIC (kernel verbs). T4 iWARP in the
works and will follow soon.
Build-tested with make universe.
30s overview
============
What interfaces support TCP offload? Look for TOE4 and/or TOE6 in the
capabilities of an interface:
# ifconfig -m | grep TOE
Enable/disable TCP offload on an interface (just like any other ifnet
capability):
# ifconfig cxgbe0 toe
# ifconfig cxgbe0 -toe
Which connections are offloaded? Look for toe4 and/or toe6 in the
output of netstat and sockstat:
# netstat -np tcp | grep toe
# sockstat -46c | grep toe

MFC after: ~3 months (after 9.1, and after ensuring MFC is feasible)
been around for a long time now (7.1-ish or even earlier); assume
they are present. These includes MSI, TSO, LRO, VLAN, INTR_FILTERS,
FIRMWARE, etc.
Also, eliminate some dead code and clean up in other places as part
of this quick once-over.
MFC after: 1 week
move most offload functionality from NIC to TOE
factor out all socket and inpcb direct access
factor out access to locking in incpb, pcbinfo, and sockbuf
and t3_push_frames).
- Import latest changes to cxgb_main.c and cxgb_sge.c from toestack p4 branch
- make driver local copy of tcp_subr.c and tcp_usrreq.c and override tcp_usrreqs so
TOE can also functions on versions with unmodified TCP
- add cxgb back to the build
- update to firmware version 4.1.0
- switch over to standard method for initializing cdevs (contributed by scottl@)
- break out timer_reclaim_task to be per-port
- move msix teardown into separate function
- fix bus_setup_intr for msi-x for the multi-port case so that msi-x resources
are not corrupted on unload
- handle 10/100/1000 base-T media and auto negotiation
- bind qset to cpu even for singleq case
- white space cleanups
- remove recursive PORT_LOCK
- move mtu setting to separate function
- stop and re-init port when changing mtu
- replace all direct references to m_data with calls to mtod
- handle attach failure better by not trying to de-initialize
taskqueues when they have not been allocated
- no longer default to jumbo frames

MFC after: 3 days
- upgrade to reflect state of 1.0.0.86
- move from firmware rev 3.2 to 4.0.0
- import driver bits for offload functionality
- remove binary distribution clause from top level files as it
runs counter to the intent of purely supporting the hardware
