within the first 4 bytes of the EHCI memory space. For controllers that
use big-endian MMIO, reading them with 1- and 2-byte reads would then
return the wrong values. Instead, read the combined register with a 4-byte
read and mask out the interesting quantities.
important for USB 2.0 devices and some of them reported to have problems
with large transactions. But USB 3.0 benchmarks show that limited number
of transactions per second on USB makes impossible to reach high transfer
speeds without using bigger transactions.
On my tests this change allows to read up to 220MB/s from USB-attached SSD
(at block size of 256-512KB), comparing to only 113MB/s without it.

proper solution which is to not use the TERMINATE pointer, but rather
link to a halted TD. The initial fix was due to a misunderstanding
about how the EHCI hardware works. Thanks to Alan Stern for clearing
this up. This patch can increase mass storage read performance
significantly when the IRQ rate is less than 8000 IRQ/s.

- correct the ethernet payload remainder which
must be post-offseted by -14 bytes instead of
0 bytes. This is not very clearly defined in the
NCM specification.
- add development feature about limiting the
maximum datagram count in each NCM payload.
- zero-pad alignment data
- add TX-interval tuning sysctl

It seems axe(4) controllers support interrupt endpoint such that
enabling interrupt endpoint generates about 1000 interrupts/sec.
Controllers transfer 8 bytes data through interrupt endpoint and
the data include link UP/DOWN state as well as some PHY related
information. Previously axe(4) didn't use the transferred data and
didn't even try to read the data. Because axe(4) counts on mii(4)
to detect link state changes there is no need to use interrupt
endpoint here.
This change fixes generation of unnecessary interrupts which was
seen when interface is brought to UP.

HUB code to support USB 3.0 HUBs. This patch also add some more USB
controller methods to support more active-alike USB controllers like
the XHCI which needs to be informed about various device state events.
USB 3.0 HUBs are not tested yet, due to lack of hardware, but are
believed to work.
After this update the initial device descriptor is only read twice
when we know that the bMaxPacketSize is too small for a single packet
transfer of this descriptor.

controllers combine multiple TX requests into single one if there
is room in TX buffer of controller. Updating TX packet counter at
the end of TX completion resulted in incorrect TX packet counter as
axe(4) thought it sent 1 packet. There is no easy way to know how
many combined TX were completed in the callback.
Because this change updates TX packet counter before actual
transmission, it may not be ideal one. But I believe it's better
than showing fake 8kpps under high TX load. With this change, TX
shows 221kpps on Linksus USB200M.

interface is also backwards compatible to USB2.0 and USB1.0 and will
evntually replace the OHCI/UHCI and EHCI drivers.
There will be follow-up commits during the coming week to link the
driver into the default kernel build and add missing USB3.0
functionality in the USB core. Currently only the driver files are
committed.

is not likely with the existing USB speeds.
