- In wb_rxeof(), if the received packet is less than MINCLSIZE bytes,
copy it to an mbuf chain so as to be more frugal in our use of mbuf
clusters.
- The Winbond chip, like the ASIX, wants the 'TX interrupt request'
bit set in the _first_ fragment of a transmitted frame, not the
last. (At least the Winbond manual states this unambiguously; too
bad I wasn't paying attention when I read it the first time.)
- Turn off the transmit threshold mechanism (initialize the threshold
to 0). This effectively puts the chip in 'store and forward' mode
which seems to cut down on transmit errors a little. It may also
reduce transmit performace a bit, but I'm willing to do that if it
means better reliability.
- Normally, the driver allocates an mbuf cluster for each receive
descriptor. This is because we have to be prepared to accomodate up to
1500 bytes (a cluster buffer can hold up to 2K). However, using up a
whole cluster buffer for a tiny packet is a bit of a waste. Also,
it seems to me that sometimes mbufs will linger in the kernel for
a while after being passed out of the driver, which means we might
drain the mbuf cluster pool. The cluster pool is smaller than the
mbuf pool in general, so we do the following: if the packet is less
that MINCLSIZE bytes, then we copy it into a small mbuf chain and
leave the mbuf cluster in place for another go-round. This saves
mbuf clusters in some cases while still allowing them to be used
for heavy traffic exchanges with lots of full-sized frames.
- The transmit descriptor has a bit in the control word which allows
the driver to request that a 'TX OK' interrupt be generated when
a frame has been completed. Sometimes, a frame can be fragmented
across several descriptors. The manual for the real DEC 21140A says
that if this happens, the 'TX interrupt request' bit is only valid
in the descriptor of the last fragment. With the ASIX chip, it seems
the 'TX interrupt request' bit is only valid in the descriptor of
the _first_ fragment. Actually, the manual contains conflicting
information, but I think it's supposed to be the first fragment.
To play it safe, set the bit in both the first and last fragment to
be sure that we get a TX OK interrupt. Without this fix, the driver
can sometimes be late in releasing mbufs from the transmit queue
after transmission.

intro screen unless explicitly asked in userconfig_script, basing on

shared signal handling when there is shared signal handling being
used.
This removes the main objection to making the shared signal handling
a standard ability in rfork() and friends and 'unconditionalising'
this code. (i.e. the allocation of an extra 328 bytes per process).
Signal handling information remains in the U area until such a time as
it's reference count would be incremented to > 1. At that point a new
struct is malloc'd and maintained in KVM so that it can be shared between
the processes (threads) using it.
A function to check the reference count and move the struct back to the U
area when it drops back to 1 is also supplied. Signal information is
therefore now swapable for all processes that are not sharing that
information with other processes. THis should addres the concerns raised
by Garrett and others.
