mbuf allocation fails, and fix (i hope) a couple of style bugs.
I believe these printf() are extremely dangerous because now they can
occur on every incoming packet and are not rate limited. They were
meant to warn the sysadmin about lack of resources, but now they
can become a nice way to panic your system under load.
Other drivers (e.g. the fxp driver) have nothing like this.
There is a pending discussion on putting this kind of warnings
elsewhere, and I hope we can fix this soon.
underlying unaligned bcopy) on incoming packets that are already
available (albeit unaligned) in a buffer.
The performance improvement varies, depending on CPU and memory
speed, but can be quite large especially on slow CPUs. I have seen
over 50% increase on forwarding speed on the sis driver for the
486/133 (embedded systems), which does exactly the same thing.
The behaviour is controlled by a sysctl variable, hw.dc_quick which
defaults to 1. Set it to 0 to restore the old behaviour.
After running a few experiments (in userland, though) I am convinced
that doing the m_devget() is detrimental to performance in almost
all cases.
Even if your CPU has degraded performance with misaligned data,
the bcopy() in the driver has the same overhead due to misaligment
as the one that you save in the uiomove(), plus you do one extra
copy and pollute the cache.
But more often than not, you do not even have to touch the payload,
e.g. when you are forwarding packets, and even in the often-cited
case of NFS, you often end up passing a pointer to the payload to
the disk controller.
In any case, you can play with the sysctl variable to toggle between
the two behaviours, and see if it makes a difference.

(b) Module unload doesn't panic if there are any /dev/snp* devices

We used to assume that if we didn't download firmware, we couldn't know
what the firmware capability with respect to SCCLUNs is- and it's important
because the lun field changes in the request queue entry based upon which
firmware it is.
At any rate, we *do* get back firmware attributes in mailbox register 6
when we do ABOUT FIRMWARE for all 2200/2300 cards- and for 2100 cards
with at least 1.17.0 firmware. So- we now assume non-SCCLUN behaviour
for 2100 cards with firmware < 1.17.0- and we check the firmware attributes
for other cards (loaded firmware or not).
This also allows us to get rid of the crappy test of isp_maxluns > 16-
we simply can check firmware attributes for SCCLUN behaviour.

A nsp chip does suspend I/O write by 512bytes burst write,

signal to PC-Card bus after the CPU writes more than 48 bytes to
the chip if the SCSI device does not respond immediately in supsend
I/O burst write. If the device does not respond for a while it might
cause PC-Card bus timeout.
The previous work around was to wait the request from SCSI device.
But there are some devices which request bytes for synchronous transfer
immediately. So current work aound is to fill 32bytes FIFO, wait for
FIFO empty and burst write 512-32 bytes for every 512 bytes block.
