USB-EL1202A chipset. Between this and the other two drivers, we should
have support for pretty much every USB ethernet adapter on the market.
The only other USB chip that I know of is the SMC USB97C196, and right
now I don't know of any adapters that use it (including the ones made
by SMC :/ ).
Note that the CATC chip supports a nifty feature: read and write combining.
This allows multiple ethernet packets to be transfered in a single USB
bulk in/out transaction. However I'm again having trouble with large
bulk in transfers like I did with the ADMtek chip, which leads me to
believe that our USB stack needs some work before we can really make
use of this feature. When/if things improve, I intend to revisit the
aue and cue drivers. For now, I've lost enough sanity points.

USB ethernet chip. Adapters that use this chip include the LinkSys
USB100TX. There are a few others, but I'm not certain of their
availability in the U.S. I used an ADMtek eval board for development.
Note that while the ADMtek chip is a 100Mbps device, you can't really
get 100Mbps speeds over USB. Regardless, this driver uses miibus to
allow speed and duplex mode selection as well as autonegotiation.
Building and kldloading the driver as a module is also supported.
Note that in order to make this driver work, I had to make what some
may consider an ugly hack to sys/dev/usb/usbdi.c. The usbd_transfer()
function will use tsleep() for synchronous transfers that don't complete
right away. This is a problem since there are times when we need to
do sync transfers from an interrupt context (i.e. when reading registers
from the MAC via the control endpoint), where tsleep() us a no-no.
My hack allows the driver to have the code poll for transfer completion
subject to the xfer->timeout timeout rather that calling tsleep().
This hack is controlled by a quirk entry and is only enabled for the
ADMtek device.
Now, I'm sure there are a few of you out there ready to jump on me
and suggest some other approach that doesn't involve a busy wait. The
only solution that might work is to handle the interrupts in a kernel
thread, where you may have something resembling a process context that
makes it okay to tsleep(). This is lovely, except we don't have any
mechanism like that now, and I'm not about to implement such a thing
myself since it's beyond the scope of driver development. (Translation:
I'll be damned if I know how to do it.) If FreeBSD ever aquires such
a mechanism, I'll be glad to revisit the driver to take advantage of
it. In the meantime, I settled for what I perceived to be the solution
that involved the least amount of code changes. In general, the hit
is pretty light.

History:
The bulk of this code was obtained from NetBSD approximately one year
ago (I have taken care to preserve the original NetBSD copyrights and
I thank the authors for their work.) At that time, the OSF/1 code was
what was left over from their initial bootstrapping off of OSF/1 and
did not provide support for executing shared binaries.
I have independently added support for shared libraries, and support
for some of the more obscure system calls. This code has been
available for testing and comment since January of 1999 and running on
production machines here at Duke since April.
Known working applications include:
- Netscape (all versions I've tried)
- Mathematica 3.0.2
- Splus 3.4
- ArcInfo 7.1
- Matlab (version unknown)
- SimOS
- Atom instrumented binaries (built on a real OSF/1 system)
Applications which are known not to work:
- All applications linking to libmach
- Adobe Acrobat (uses libmach)
This has been tested with applications running against shared
libraries from OSF/1 (aka Tru64) 4.0D and 4.0F.

config space accesses on the tsunami is wrong. I had thought that a bus

-----------------------------
The compatibility code and/or emulators have been updated:
iBCS2 now mostly uses the older syscalls. SVR4 now properly
handles all signals. This has been achieved by using the
new sigset_t throughout the emulator. The Linuxulator has
been severely updated. Internally the new Linux sigset_t is
made the default. These are then mapped to and from the
new FreeBSD sigset_t.
Also, rt_sigsuspend has been implemented in the Linuxulator.
Implementing this syscall basicly caused all this sigset_t
changing in the first place and the syscall has been used
throughout the change as a means for testing. It basicly is
too much work to undo the implementation so that it can
later be added again.
A special note on the use of sv_sigtbl and sv_sigsize in
struct sysentvec:
Every signal larger than sv_sigsize is not translated and is
passed on to the signal handler unmodified. Signals in the
range 1 upto and including sv_sigsize are translated.
The rationale is that only the system defined signals need to
be translated.
The emulators also have been updated so that the translation
tables are only indexed for valid (system defined) signals.
This change also fixes the translation bug already in the
SVR4 emulator.
-----------------------------
By introducing a new sigframe so that the signal handler operates
on the new siginfo_t and on ucontext_t instead of sigcontext, we
now need two version of sendsig and sigreturn.
A flag in struct proc determines whether the process expects an
old sigframe or a new sigframe. The signal trampoline handles
which sigreturn to call. It does this by testing for a magic
cookie in the frame.
The alpha uses osigreturn to implement longjmp. This means that
osigreturn is not only used for compatibility with existing
binaries. To handle the new sigset_t, setjmp saves it in
sc_reserved (see NOTE).
the struct sigframe has been moved from frame.h to sigframe.h
to handle the complex header dependencies that was caused by
the new sigframe.
NOTE: For the i386, the size of jmp_buf has been increased to hold
the new sigset_t. On the alpha this has been prevented by
using sc_reserved in sigcontext.

And as long as we're here, rename some unimplemeted syscalls (linux_phys ->
linux_umount2, linux_vm86 -> linux_vm86old, linux_new_vm86 -> linux_vm86).
Change prototype for linux_newuname from `struct linux_newuname_t *' into
`struct linux_new_utsname *'. This change is reflected in linux.h and
linux_misc.c.

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.
