Mainly focus on files that use BSD 3-Clause license.
The Software Package Data Exchange (SPDX) group provides a specification
to make it easier for automated tools to detect and summarize well known
opensource licenses. We are gradually adopting the specification, noting
that the tags are considered only advisory and do not, in any way,
superceed or replace the license texts.

controller to perform MDIO type accesses to a remote transceiver
using message pages defined through MRBE(multirate backplane
ethernet). It's used in blade systems(e.g Dell Blade m610) which
are connected to pass-through blades rather than traditional
switches.
This change directly manipulates firmware's mailboxes to control
remote PHY such that it does not use mii(4). Alternatively, as
David said, it could be implemented in brgphy(4) by creating a fake
PHY and let brgphy(4) do necessary mii accesses and bce(4) can
implement mailbox accesses based on the type of brgphy(4)'s mii
accesses. Personally, I think it would make brgphy(4) hard to
maintain since it would have to access many bce(4) registers in
brgphy(4). Given that there are users who are suffering from lack
of remote PHY support, it would be better to get working system
rather than waiting for complete/perfect implementation.

o Add check for actually resolved speed in miibus_statchg callback
instead of blindly reprogramming BCE_EMAC_MODE register. The
callback may be called multiple times(e.g. link UP, link
transition, auto-negotiate complete etc) while auto-negotiation
is in progress. All unresolved link state changes are ignored
now and setting BCE_EMAC_MODE after link establishment is done
once.
o bce(4) is careful enough not to drive MII_TICK if driver got a
valid link. To detect lost link, bce(4) relied on link state
change interrupt and if driver see the interrupt, it forced to
drive MII_TICK by calling bce_tick() in interrupt handler.
Because bce(4) generates multiple link state change interrupts
while auto-negotiation is in progress, bce_tick() would be
called multiple times and this resulted in generating multiple
link UP/DOWN messages.
With this change, bce_tick() is not called in interrupt handler
anymore such that miibus_statchg callback handles link state
changes with consistent manner.

Add the capability to write the complete contents of the NVRAM via sysctl

These are only available if the kernel option BCE_DEBUG is enabled.
The nvram_write sysctl also requires the kernel option
BCE_NVRAM_WRITE_SUPPORT to be enabled. These are to be used at your
own caution. Since the MAC addresses are stored in the NVRAM, if you
dump one NIC and restore it on another NIC the destination NIC's
MAC addresses will not be preserved. A tool can be made using these
sysctl's to manage the on-chip firmware.

real solution would be to have finer grained control in the stack over what

- Use bus_dmamap_load_mbuf_sg() to eliminate the need for the callback and
all of the extra bookkeeping associated with it.
- Eliminate the bce_dmamap_arg structure and streamline the memory allocation
routines to not need it. This does change some of the debugging messages.
- Refactor the loop that fills the buffer descriptor so that it can be done
with a single set of logic in a single loop instead of two sets of logic.
- Eliminate the need to cache and pass descriptor indexes between the start
loop and the encap function.
- Change the start loop to always check the ifnet sendq for more work.
This significantly helps the driver withstand large UDP workloads, though
it's still not perfect. I suspect the remaining work lies with handling
the OACTIVE flag, and also in possibly streamlining the interrupt handler
some. It is, however, nearly on par with the other popular gigabit drivers
in terms of stability now.
