series, the 8139C+ has a descriptor-based DMA mechanism, and its
performance is actually pretty respectable. Note: the 8139D chip does
not support C+ mode. Only the 8139C+ and 8169 gigE chips support C+ mode.
Supported features:
- RX and TX checksum offload
- hardware VLAN tag insertion/extraction
- TX interrupt moderation using the 8139's on-board timer
Everything should be properly busdma'ed and endian-independent, so
things should work ok on non-x86 platforms. Unfortunately, my call
for testers on this code was met with deafening silence, and I don't
have access to any non-x86 FreeBSD boxes at the moment, so this is
speculation.
The device detection code has been cleaned up a little as well
(thanks to Michal Mertl) for the patches.
There are also updates to the rl(4) man page (which I accidentally
checked in before when I updated the dc(4) man page. Oops.)
Todo: finish support for the 8169 gigabit ethernet chip. This
mainly requires writing an rlgphy driver to handle the 8169's built-in
PHY. This will have to wait until I actually get my hands on an 8169
card for testing though. (I still can't find a source for one in the
U.S. Suggestions/pointers welcome.)

- MN-120 10/100 cardbus (ADMtek Centaur-C, if_dc)
- MN-130 10/100 PCI (ADMtek Centaur-P, if_dc)
Also update dc(4) man page to mention support for MN-120 and MN-130.
* Always use polled mode. The intr approach did not work for many
controllers and required the hw.acpi.ec.event_driven workaround.
* Only use an edge (not level) triggered GPE handler
* Add sc->ec_mtx for locking operations to a single EC. There were
many race conditions earlier between an SCI event and EcRead/Write.
* Use 1 ms as the global lock timeout
* Only acquire global lock if _GLK != 0
* Update EcWaitEvent to use an incremental backoff delay in its
poll loop. Wait 50 ms max instead of 10. Most ECs respond
in < 5 us (50 us when heavily loaded). However, some time out
occasionally even with a 10 ms timeout. For delays past 1 ms, use
msleep instead of DELAY to give SCI interrupts a chance to occur.
* Add EcCommand to send a command and wait for the appropriate event.
* The hw.acpi.ec.event_driven tunable is no longer applicable and
has been removed.

bus_dma_tag_create. We need to be sure that our packets are
kept in-sequence (that's how ATM is supposed to work) and
therefor use BUS_DMA_NOWAIT in all calls to bus_dmamap_load.
For memory allocated with bus_dmamem_alloc the use of anything
other than NULL arguments for the locking is anyway bogus because
this memory never should need bouncing and hence the load should never
be defered.
Allow the receipt of OAM and RM cells on raw connections. Caveat: it seems
that RM cells are still processed by the hardware even when we open the
connection as UBR.
register, present only on 3c90xB and later NICs. This meant that you could
not use a 1500 byte MTU with VLANs on original 3c905/3c900 cards (boomerang
chipset). The boomerang chip does support large frames though, just not
in the same way: you can set the 'allow large frames' bit in the MAC
control register to receive frames up to 4K in size.
Changes:
- Set the 'allow large frames' bit for boomerang chips and increase
the packet size register for cyclone and later chips. This allows
us to use IFCAP_VLAN_MTU on all supported xl(4) NICs.
- Actually set the IFCAP_VLAN_MTU flag in the capabilities word
in xl_attach().
- Change the method used to detect older boomerang chips. My 3c575C
cardbus NIC was being incorrectly identified as 3c90x chip instead
of 3c90xB because the capabilities word in its EEPROM reports
a bizzare value. In addition to checking for the supportsNoTxLength
bit, also check for the absence of the supportsLargePackets bit.
Both of these cases denote a 3c90xB chip.
- Make RX and TX checksums configurable via the SIOCSIFCAP ioctl.
- Avoid an unecessary le32toh() in xl_rxeof(): we already have the
received frame size in the lower 16 bits of rxstat, no need to
read it again.
Tested with 3c905-TX, 3c900-TPO, 3c980C and 3c575C NICs.

Rationale:
SIGURG is configured by ftpd to interrupt system calls, which is useful
during data transfers. However, SIGURG could interrupt I/O on the
control channel as well, which was mistaken for the end of the session.
A practical example could be aborting the download of a tiny file,
when the abort sequence reached ftpd after ftpd had passed the file
data to the system and returned to its command loop.
