IF_ADDR_UNLOCK() across network device drivers when accessing the
per-interface multicast address list, if_multiaddrs. This will
allow us to change the locking strategy without affecting our driver
programming interface or binary interface.
For two wireless drivers, remove unnecessary locking, since they
don't actually access the multicast address list.

Yukon from common multicast handling code. Yukon uses hash-based
multicast filtering(big endian form) but GENESIS uses perfect
multicast filtering as well as hash-based one(little endian form).
Due to the differences of multicast filtering there is no much
sense to have a common code.
o Remove sk_setmulti() and introduce sk_rxfilter_yukon(),
sk_rxfilter_yukon() that handles multicast filtering setup.
o Have sk_rxfilter_{yukon, genesis} handle promiscuous mode and
nuke sk_setpromisc(). This simplifies ioctl handler as well as
giving a chance to check validity of Rx control register of
Yukon.
o Don't reinitialize controller when IFF_ALLMULTI flags is changed.
o Nuke sk_gmchash(), it's not needed anymore.
o Always reconfigure Rx control register whenever a new multicast
filtering condition is changed. This fixes multicast filtering
setup on Yukon.

allocator for jumbo frame.
o Removed unneeded jlist lock which was used to manage jumbo
buffers.
o Don't reinitialize hardware if MTU was not changed.
o Added additional check for minimal MTU size.
o Added a new tunable hw.skc.jumbo_disable to disable jumbo frame
support for the driver. The tunable could be set for systems that
do not need to use jumbo frames and it would save
(9K * number of Rx descriptors) bytes kernel memory.
o Jumbo buffer allocation failure is no longer critical error for
the operation of sk(4). If sk(4) encounter the allocation failure
it just disables jumbo frame support and continues to work without
user intervention.
With these changes jumbo frame performance of sk(4) was slightly
increased and users should not encounter jumbo buffer allocation
failure. Previously sk(4) tried to allocate physically contiguous
memory, 3388KB for 256 Rx descriptors. Sometimes that amount of
contiguous memory region could not be available for running systems
which in turn resulted in failure of loading the driver.

Fix all conventional users of the API to pass the KVA of the buffer
as the first argument, to make this a no-op commit.
Likely break the only non-convetional user of the API, after informing

Update the mbuf(9) manual page, which was already out of sync on

Bump __FreeBSD_version to 800016 as there is no way to tell how
many arguments a CPP macro needs any other way.
This paves the way for giving sendfile(9) a way to wait for the

This does not affect the memory layout or size of mbufs.

sparc64 GENERIC and the sound device drivers known working on sparc64
to use bus_get_dma_tag() to obtain the parent DMA tag so we can get rid
of the sparc64_root_dma_tag kludge eventually. Except for ath(4), sk(4),
stge(4) and ti(4) these changes are runtime tested (unless I booted up
the wrong kernels again...).
SK-NET GENESIS document says reading SK_ISSR should stop generating
further interrupts(Since we drop a driver lock before invoking
ifp->if_input handler we should disable interrupts in ISR in order
to protect integrity of softc from subsequent interrupts). But it
seems that there is possibility of loosing interrupts between
reading SK_ISSR and determining which interrupts are reported.
To cope with the situation we continuously read SK_ISSR register
until there are no interrupts. However, it seems that the above
work around doesn't fix all cases. To protect watchdog handler
from triggering false alarm add a work around code which try to
reclaim pending Tx descriptors before resetting hardware. This
should fix occasional watchdog timeout errors seen on this driver.

OpenBSD changes. With these changes, PHY part of the driver becomes
functional (it senses media changes and negotiates speed just fine),
previously it just hang with no PHY message, but no data goes through
interface (error message is "can not stop transfer of Tx/Rx descriptor).
Hopefully somebody with more clue/free time will be able to pick up
after me.
- MPSAFE. No more recursive lock required.
- bus_dma(9) conversion. I think it should work on all architectures.
- optimized Rx handler for each normal and jumbo frames. Previously
sk(4) used jumbo frame management code to handle normal sized
frames. As the handler needs an additional lock to protect jumbo
frame management structure from races, it used two lock operations
for each received packet. Now sk(4) uses single lock operation for
normal frame.(Jumbo frame still needs two lock operations as before.)
The hardware supports DMA scatter operations for Rx descriptors such
that it's possible to take advantagee of m_cljget(9) for jumbo frames.
However, due to a unknown reasons it resulted in poor performance on
sparc64. So I dropped m_cljget(9) approach. This should be revisited
since it would reduce one lock operation for jumbo frame handling.
- Tx TCP/Rx IP checksum offload support. According to the data sheet
of SK-NET GENESIS the hardware supports Rx IP/TCP/UDP offload.
But I couldn't make it work on my Yukon hardware. So Rx TCP/UDP was
disabled at the moment. It seems that newer Yukon chips can support
Tx UDP checksum offload too. But I need more documentation first.
- Added more wait time in reading VPD data. It seems that ASUS LOM
takes a very long time to respond VPD read signal.
- Added an additional lock for MII register access callbacks.
- Added more strict received packet validation routine. Previously it
passed corrupted packets to upper layers under certain conditions.
- A new function sk_yukon_tick() to handle auto-negotiation properly.
- Interrupt handler now checks shared interrupt source and protects
the interrupt handler from NULL pointer dereference which was caused
by odd status word value. The status word can returns 0xffffffff if
cable is unplugged while Rx/Tx/auto-negotiation is in progress.
- suspend/resume support(not tested).
- Added Rx/Tx FIFO flush routine for Yukon
- Activate Tx descriptor poll timer in order to protect possible loss
of SK_TXBMU_TX_START command. Previously the driver continuously issued
SK_TXBMU_TX_START when it notices pending Tx descriptors not processed
yet in interrupt handler. That approach would add additional PCI
write access overhead under high Tx load situations and it might fail
if the first SK_TXBMU_TX_START was lost and no interrupt is generated
from the first SK_TXBMU_TX_START command.
- s/printf/if_printf/, s/printf/device_printf/, Axe sk_unit in softc.
- Setting multicast/station address is now safe on strict-alignment
architectures.
- Fix long standing bug in VLAN header length setup.
- Added/corrected register definitions for Yukon.
(Register information from Linux skge driver.)
- Added Rx status definition for Marvell Yukon/XaQti XMAC.
(Rx status register information from Linux skge driver.)
- Update if_oerrors if we encounter watchdog error.
- callout(9) conversion
Special thanks to jkim who let me know RX status differences between
Yukon and XaQti XMAC.
It seems that there is still occasional watchdog timeout error but I
couldn't reproduce it and need more information to analyze it from
users.

MFC after: 1 week
struct ifnet or the layer 2 common structure it was embedded in have
been replaced with a struct ifnet pointer to be filled by a call to the
new function, if_alloc(). The layer 2 common structure is also allocated
via if_alloc() based on the interface type. It is hung off the new
struct ifnet member, if_l2com.
This change removes the size of these structures from the kernel ABI and
will allow us to better manage them as interfaces come and go.
Other changes of note:
- Struct arpcom is no longer referenced in normal interface code.
Instead the Ethernet address is accessed via the IFP2ENADDR() macro.
To enforce this ac_enaddr has been renamed to _ac_enaddr.
- The second argument to ether_ifattach is now always the mac address
from driver private storage rather than sometimes being ac_enaddr.
