- Get the list of registers to read during a regdump from the shared

Each virtual interface has its own MAC address, queues, and statistics.
The dedicated netmap interfaces (ncxgbeX / ncxlX) were already implemented
as additional VIs on each port. This change allows additional non-netmap
interfaces to be configured on each port. Additional virtual interfaces
use the naming scheme vcxgbeX or vcxlX.
Additional VIs are enabled by setting the hw.cxgbe.num_vis tunable to a
value greater than 1 before loading the cxgbe(4) or cxl(4) driver.
NB: The first VI on each port is the "main" interface (cxgbeX or cxlX).
T4/T5 NICs provide a limited number of MAC addresses for each physical port.
As a result, a maximum of six VIs can be configured on each port (including
the "main" interface and the netmap interface when netmap is enabled).
One user-visible result is that when netmap is enabled, packets received
or transmitted via the netmap interface are no longer counted in the stats
for the "main" interface, but are not accounted to the netmap interface.
The netmap interfaces now also have a new-bus device and export various
information sysctl nodes via dev.n(cxgbe|cxl).X.
The cxgbetool 'clearstats' command clears the stats for all VIs on the
specified port along with the port's stats. There is currently no way to
clear the stats of an individual VI.

disable No Snoop and Relaxed Ordering in the Root Port of each T5 adapter
during attach so that CPU-initiated requests do not contain these flags.
Note that this affects CPU-initiated requests to all devices under this

This commit contains large contributions from Giuseppe Lettieri and
Stefano Garzarella, is partly supported by grants from Verisign and Cisco,
and brings in the following:
- fix zerocopy monitor ports and introduce copying monitor ports
(the latter are lower performance but give access to all traffic
in parallel with the application)
- exclusive open mode, useful to implement solutions that recover
from crashes of the main netmap client (suggested by Patrick Kelsey)
- revised memory allocator in preparation for the 'passthrough mode'
(ptnetmap) recently presented at bsdcan. ptnetmap is described in

- add module dependencies for netmap when building drivers as modules
- minor simplifications to device-specific routines (*txsync, *rxsync)
- general code cleanup (remove unused variables, introduce macros

strings returned to userland include the nulterm byte.
Some uses of sbuf_new_for_sysctl() write binary data rather than strings;
clear the SBUF_INCLUDENUL flag after calling sbuf_new_for_sysctl() in
those cases. (Note that the sbuf code still automatically adds a nulterm
byte in sbuf_finish(), but since it's not included in the length it won't
get copied to userland along with the binary data.)
Remove explicit adding of a nulterm byte in a couple places now that it
gets done automatically by the sbuf drain code.

Drivers (ULDs) and the base if_cxgbe driver.
Track the per-adapter activation of ULDs in a new "active_ulds" field.
This was done pretty arbitrarily before this change -- via TOM_INIT_DONE
in adapter->flags for TOM, and the (1 << MAX_NPORTS) bit in
adapter->offload_map for iWARP.
iWARP and hw-accelerated iSCSI rely on the TOE (supported by the TOM
ULD). The rules are:
a) If the iWARP and/or iSCSI ULDs are available when TOE is enabled then
iWARP and/or iSCSI are enabled too.
b) When the iWARP and iSCSI modules are loaded they go looking for
adapters with TOE enabled and enable themselves on that adapter.
c) You cannot deactivate or unload the TOM module from underneath iWARP
or iSCSI. Any such attempt will fail with EBUSY.

a) Front load as much work as possible in if_transmit, before any driver
lock or software queue has to get involved.
b) Replace buf_ring with a brand new mp_ring (multiproducer ring). This
is specifically for the tx multiqueue model where one of the if_transmit
producer threads becomes the consumer and other producers carry on as
usual. mp_ring is implemented as standalone code and it should be
possible to use it in any driver with tx multiqueue. It also has:
- the ability to enqueue/dequeue multiple items. This might become
significant if packet batching is ever implemented.
- an abdication mechanism to allow a thread to give up writing tx
descriptors and have another if_transmit thread take over. A thread
that's writing tx descriptors can end up doing so for an unbounded
time period if a) there are other if_transmit threads continuously
feeding the sofware queue, and b) the chip keeps up with whatever the
thread is throwing at it.
- accurate statistics about interesting events even when the stats come
at the expense of additional branches/conditional code.
The NIC txq lock is uncontested on the fast path at this point. I've
left it there for synchronization with the control events (interface
up/down, modload/unload).
c) Add support for "type 1" coalescing work request in the normal NIC tx
path. This work request is optimized for frames with a single item in
the DMA gather list. These are very common when forwarding packets.
Note that netmap tx in cxgbe already uses these "type 1" work requests.
d) Do not request automatic cidx updates every 32 descriptors. Instead,
request updates via bits in individual work requests (still every 32
descriptors approximately). Also, request an automatic final update
when the queue idles after activity. This means NIC tx reclaim is still
performed lazily but it will catch up quickly as soon as the queue
idles. This seems to be the best middle ground and I'll probably do
something similar for netmap tx as well.
e) Implement a faster tx path for WRQs (used by TOE tx and control
queues, _not_ by the normal NIC tx). Allow work requests to be written
directly to the hardware descriptor ring if room is available. I will
convert t4_tom and iw_cxgbe modules to this faster style gradually.

from the FreeBSD network code. The flag is still kept around in the
"sys/mbuf.h" header file, but does no longer have any users. Instead
the "m_pkthdr.rsstype" field in the mbuf structure is now used to
decide the meaning of the "m_pkthdr.flowid" field. To modify the
"m_pkthdr.rsstype" field please use the existing "M_HASHTYPE_XXX"
macros as defined in the "sys/mbuf.h" header file.
This patch introduces new behaviour in the transmit direction.
Previously network drivers checked if "M_FLOWID" was set in "m_flags"
before using the "m_pkthdr.flowid" field. This check has now now been
replaced by checking if "M_HASHTYPE_GET(m)" is different from
"M_HASHTYPE_NONE". In the future more hashtypes will be added, for
example hashtypes for hardware dedicated flows.
"M_HASHTYPE_OPAQUE" indicates that the "m_pkthdr.flowid" value is
valid and has no particular type. This change removes the need for an
"if" statement in TCP transmit code checking for the presence of a
valid flowid value. The "if" statement mentioned above is now a direct
variable assignment which is then later checked by the respective
network drivers like before.
Additional notes:
- The SCTP code changes will be committed as a separate patch.
- Removal of the "M_FLOWID" flag will also be done separately.
- The FreeBSD version has been bumped.

leave a port permanently disabled when a copper cable is unplugged and
then plugged right back in.
lacp_linkstate goes looking for the current ifmedia on a link state
change and it could get stale information from cxgbe(4) on a module
unplug followed by replug. The fix is to process module events before
link-state events within the driver, and to always rebuild the ifmedia
list on a module change event (instead of rebuilding it lazily).
Thanks to asomers@ for the problem report and detailed analysis to go
with it.
