Davicom DM9102 chip. I thought I had escaped this problem, but... This
chip appears to silently corrupt or discard transmitted frames when
using scatter/gather DMA (i.e. DMAing each packet fragment in place
with a separate descriptor). The only way to insure reliable transmission
is to coalesce transmitted packets into a single cluster buffer. (There
may also be an alignment constraint here, but mbuf cluster buffers are
naturally aligned on 2K boundaries, which seems to be good enough.)
The DM9102 driver for Linux written by Davicom also uses this workaround.
Unfortunately, the Davicom datasheet has no errata section describing

driver seems relatively functional, but could use some souping up,
particularly in the performance area. This has both NetBSD and FreeBSD
attachment code and a fair amount of effort has been put into making
it easy to port to different *BSD platforms.
The basic design is a one tfd per mbuf transmit (with no transmit
related interrupts- tfds are gc'd as needed). The receive ring
uses a 2K buffer per rfd with a +2 byte adjust for the ethernet
header (so the payload is aligned). There's support that *almost*
works for doing large packets- the rfd chaining code works, but there's
some problem with getting good checksums at the IP reassembly level
(ditto for doing short tfd's too).
The chip has support for TCP checksums insertion for transmit and
TCP checksum calculation on receive (for both you have to do some
appropriate backoff && twiddling), but this isn't in place.
This is nearly entirely reverse engineered from the released Intel
driver, so there's a lot of "We have to do this but do not know why"
stuff. There is somebody who has the chip specs who works in FreeBSD
but they're being a bit standoffish about even sharing hints which
is somewhat annoying. It's also apparent that all I had to work with
were the first rev boards.
This driver has been lightly tested on intel && alpha, but only
point-to-point. There may be some issues with switches- use of
boot time environment variables that override EEPROM settings
(e.g., 'set wx_ilos=1' which inverts the sense of optical signal
loss) may help with this.
I had this out for review for three weeks, and nobody said anything

down, the dc driver and receiver can fall out of sync with one another,
resulting in a condition where the chip continues to receive packets
but the driver never notices. Normally, the receive handler checks each
descriptor starting from the current producer index to see if the chip
has relinquished ownership, indicating that a packet has been received.
The driver hands the packet off to ether_input() and then prepares the
descriptor to receive another frame before moving on to the next
descriptor in the ring. But sometimes, the chip appears to skip a
descriptor. This leaves the driver testing the status word in a descriptor
that never gets updated. The driver still gets "RX done" interrupts but
never advances further into the RX ring, until the ring fills up and the
chip interrupts again to signal an error condition. Sometimes, the
driver will remain in this desynchronized state, resulting in spotty
performance until the interface is reset.
Fortunately, it's fairly simple to detect this condition: if we call
the rxeof routine but the number of received packets doesn't increase,
we suspect that there could be a problem. In this case, we call a new
routine called dc_rx_resync(), which scans ahead in the RX ring to see
if there's a frame waiting for us somewhere beyond that the driver thinks
is the current producer index. If it finds one, it bumps up the index
and calls the rxeof handler again to snarf up the packet and bring the
driver back in sync with the chip. (It may actually do this several times
in the event that there's more than one "hole" in the ring.)
So far the only card supported by if_dc which has exhibited this problem
is a LinkSys LNE100TX v2.0 (82c115 PNIC II), and it only seems to happen
on one particular system, however the fix is general enough and has low
enough overhead that we may as well apply it for all supported chipsets.
I also implemented the same fix for the 3Com xl driver, which is apparently
vulnerable to the same problem.

Changes are:
- Add PCI ID to list in if_xlreg.h.
- Update xl_devs table in if_xl.c.
- Update xl_choose_xcvr() to consider the HomeConnect the
same as all the other 10baseT/100baseTX cards.
- Add a flag DC_TX_INTR_ALWAYS which causes the transmit code to
request a TX done interrupt for every packet. The PNIC seems to need
this to insure that the sent TX buffers get reaped in a timely fashion.
- Try to unreset the SIA as soon as possible after resetting the whole
chip.
- Change dcphy to support either 10/100 or 10Mbps only NICs. The
built-in 21143 ethernet in Compaq Presario machines is 10Mbps only
and it doesn't work right if we try to advertise 100Mbps modes during
autoneg. When restricted to only 10mbps modes, it works fine.
Note that for now, I detect this condition by checking the PCI
subsystem ID on this NIC (which has a Compaq vendor/device ID).
Yes, I know that's what the SROM is supposed to be for. I'm deliberately

submitter, who *still* hasn't bothered to answer me back.
The thing which the submitter completely failed to mention is that
his 3c900B-TPO card has the transceiver selection in the EEPROM set
to "auto." You can tweak the setting using the 3C90XCFG.EXE utility
that 3Com provides with the card. I'm not sure if it's supposed to
default to auto or if the user fiddled with it. Currently, the xl
driver only does autoselection for 10/100 NICs (i.e. those with NWAY
autonegotiation capabilities). For the 10baseT, 10base5, 10base2,
10baseFL and 100baseFX cards, the driver sets the default media to
whatever the EEPROM transceiver selector says. The problem is that
the "auto" selection is mistakenly identified as "10/100 NWAY
autoselection mode" and this is not handled correctly: the default
media ends up being chosen as 100baseTX, which doesn't work because
we've only added 10baseT media types to the ifmedia word. This leads
to a panic in ifmedia_set() (something else which the submitter never
bothered to mention).
A workaround for this is to re-run the 3C90XCFG.EXE utility and change
the transceiver selection to something besides "auto." I have also
patched the driver to watch for the "auto" setting in the non-miibus
case and select a reasonable default based on the card type instead of
falling through to 100baseTX and exploding.

This whole idea isn't going to work until somebody makes the bus/kld
code smarter. The idea here is to change the module's internal name
from "foo" to "if_foo" so that ifconfig can tell a network driver from
a non-network one. However doing this doesn't work correctly no matter
how you slice it. For everything to work, you have to change the name
in both the driver_t struct and the DRIVER_MODULE() declaration. The
problems are:
- If you change the name in both places, then the kernel thinks that
the device's name is now "if_foo", so you get things like:
if_foo0: <FOO ethernet> irq foo at device foo on pcifoo
if_foo0: Ethernet address: foo:foo:foo:foo:foo:foo
This is bogus. Now the device name doesn't agree with the logical
interface name. There's no reason for this, and it violates the
principle of least astonishment.
- If you leave the name in the driver_t struct as "foo" and only
change the names in the DRIVER_MODULE() declaration to "if_foo" then
attaching drivers to child devices doesn't work because the names don't
agree. This breaks miibus: drivers that need to have miibuses and PHY
drivers attached never get them.
In other words: damned if you do, damned if you don't.
This needs to be thought through some more. Since the drivers that
use miibus are broken, I have to change these all back in order to
make them work again. Yes this will stop ifconfig from being able
to demand load driver modules. On the whole, I'd rather have that
than having the drivers not work at all.
strategy used in the 3Com Linux driver. The new strategy is to use transmit
descriptor polling -- that is, the NIC polls the descriptors to see when
new packets are available for transmission. The advantage to the new scheme
is that no register accesses are needed in the transmit routine. The old
scheme requires several register accesses to stall the TX engine, update the
TX DMA list pointer register, then unstall the TX engine. Hopefully the new
scheme will provide improved transmit performance with less CPU overhead.

this working with the probe etc, but doesn't actually say it works as
on the ethernet. :-) Assuming it does, this is a RELENG_3 merge candidate.

the Davicom DM9100 and DM9102 chipsets, including the Jaton Corporation
XPressNet. Datasheet is available from www.davicom8.com.
The DM910x chips are still more tulip clones. The API is reproduced
pretty faithfully, unfortunately the performance is pretty bad. The
transmitter seems to have a lot of problems DMAing multi-fragment
packets. The only way to make it work reliably is to coalesce transmitted
packets into a single contiguous buffer. The Linux driver (written by
Davicom) actually does something similar to this. I can't recomment this
NIC as anything more than a "connectivity solution."
This driver uses newbus and miibus and is supported on both i386
and alpha platforms.
SiS 900 and SiS 7016 PCI fast ethernet chipsets. Full manuals for the
SiS chips can be found at www.sis.com.tw.
This is a fairly simple chipset. The receiver uses a 128-bit multicast
hash table and single perfect entry for the station address. Transmit and
receive DMA and FIFO thresholds are easily tuneable. Documentation is
pretty decent and performance is not bad, even on my crufty 486. This
driver uses newbus and miibus and is supported on both the i386 and
alpha architectures.
Doug Rabson's work, with a few tweaks from Warner Losh and I. There are
still some quirks to resolve, but the old driver is presently breaking
the build.
Fix a bug where video capture locks up on channel changes.
Many thanks to Juha for solving this.

external NatSemi PHY chip was programmed to respond to MII address 24.
In the 3c905B ASICs, the transceiver is internal but it's still mapped
to MII address 24. But *some* 3Com 3c905B ASIC revisions map the
transceiver control registers to *all* MII addresses (0 through 31).
The miibus code probes for PHYs at all MII addresses and because of
this unusual behavior, it will attempt to map the same PHY registers
several times over, which doesn't work.
Naturally, the 3c905B NIC that I tested happened not to exhibit this
behavior.
The fix is to tweak xl_miibus_readreg() and xl_miibus_writereg()
to only respond when attempting to read from MII address 24. This
is safe to do since the 3Com documentation indicates that the PHY
and/or internal transceiver will always be mapped to address 24,
and there are no 3Com XL NICs with more than one PHY.
New Features:
Greatly improved VBI capture support. (mainly for the AleVT port)
Supports select() on /dev/vbi
Improved RISC program for RGB+VBI capture to capture both evenodd
VBI data even when only capturing even only (or odd only) video

Bug Fix:
Fix bug in AverMedia card detection.
Break out the detection logic for the aic7855 and properly report
these chips as 7855s instead of 7850s.
The 2940AU_CN is an aic7860 based card, not aic7860.
Not setting CACHETHEN turned out to be a bad idea. It can cause
spurious corruption under heavy PCI load with multiple masters.
due to the fact that there are non-MII cards supported by the same
driver and I don't have all of the cards available for testing. There's
also the 3c905B-COMBO which has MII, AUI and BNC media ports all in one
package. Supporting the COMBO is difficult because we have to add the
10base5 and 10base2 media types to the same ifmedia struct as the
MII-attached types, however there is no way to force the miibus and
child PHYs into existence before xl_attach() completes, so there is
no ifmedia struct available in xl_attach(). What we do inistead is
use the mediainit method as a callback: when a child PHY is attached,
it calls the miibus mediainit routine which selects a default media.
This routing also calls the NIC driver's mediainit method (if it
implements one) at which point we can safely add the other media
types.
This fixes, at least, panics in ncr_attach() on i386's with about 5MB
of memory. The restriction was a hack to leave some low memory for ISA
DMA, but on i386's we now allocate pages from the top down, so all the
restriction did was cause our allocations to fail when there is no free
memory above 1MB.
had to get the ML 6692 PHY driver working correctly, which is harder than
it sounds. "Bitrate" ThunderLAN devices should still be supported (i.e
the older 10Mbps Netflex 3/P, which use the TNETE110 chip that has no
MII support). The ThunderLAN has an internal PHY which makes things a
little complicated, but these are the basic rules:
- For devices with just the ThunderLAN, the internal PHY is used to
provide 10baseT, and 10base5/10baseT support. Autonegotiation will
work, but only with 10baseT links. The only thing that really gets
negotiated is whether the link is full or half duplex.
- For devices with the ThunderLAN and an external 10/100 PHY (like the
Compaq Netelligent 100Mbps cards, or the internal Netflex 3/P with
100Mbps upgrade daughter card), the external PHY is used for 10baseT
and 100baseTX modes. The internal PHY is still used to support
10base5/10base2, though you have to select them manual with ifconfig.
- For devices with the ThunderLAN and the ML6692 PHY, both the internal
and external PHYs are used, though it will appear as though the 6692
PHY will be used to support 10baseT and 100baseTX modes. In reality,
the internal PHY will be used for 10baseT, but this fact will be hidden
from the user. The 10base5/10base2 modes can also be selected manually
as with above.
in 4 byte chunks. It turns out that with the 82c169C on the Netgear
FA-310TX Rev D2, if you tell the chip you have reserved a buffer of 1518
bytes, it will actually treat it as 1516 bytes since 1518 is divisible
by four. Consequently, a packet of 1514 bytes will always end up consuming
two buffers: the last coupleof bytes will spill over into the next
descriptor. This causes the pn_rx_bug_war() routine to trip unnecessarily.
I'm not sure if the 82c169B or 82c168 chips behave the same way; I'll
have to check them. In any case, this change should work just as well
with them. Note that the FA-310TX Rev D2 also has a Broadcom PHY
instead of a Level One LXT970 PHY, however this shouldn't make any
difference as far as the driver is concerned.
This change also allows me to do a way with one rounding overation in
pn_rx-buf_war().
Diskslice/label code not yet handled.
Vinum, i4b, alpha, pc98 not dealt with (left to respective Maintainers)
Add the correct hook for devfs to kern_conf.c
The net result of this excercise is that a lot less files depends on DEVFS,
and devtoname() gets more sensible output in many cases.
A few drivers had minor additional cleanups performed relating to cdevsw
registration.
A few drivers don't register a cdevsw{} anymore, but only use make_dev().
PCI fast ethernet controller. Currently, the only card I know that uses
this chip is the D-Link DFE-550TX. (Don't ask me where to buy these: the
only cards I have are samples sent to me by D-Link.)
This driver is the first to make use of the miibus code once I'm sure
it all works together nicely, I'll start converting the other drivers.
The Sundance chip is a clone of the 3Com 3c90x Etherlink XL design
only with its own register layout. Support is provided for ifmedia,
hardware multicast filtering, bridging and promiscuous mode.

Rework kern_shutdown.c to take greater advantage of the use of event
