a03150fdc9 Add more controllers that support jumbo frame. 2011-12-02 19:01:26 +00:00

496b5146bf Remove the description of the link0 link option, since r215297 the master
media option generally should be used instead. Actually I think the lists
of media types should be removed from the manual pages of MAC drivers
altogether and users just pointed to the output of `ifconfig -m` instead;
even before r215297 there were several outdated descriptions, technically
it's wrong most of the time as not the MAC drivers support these media
types but actually the PHY drivers do and it generally doesn't make sense
to maintain these lists in every manual page of a driver as the media is
auto-detected.

8194413b8d Use shorten model name instead of showing all controller model
numbers. bge(4) supports too many models such that it's
unreasonable to list all these controllers in one line description
of name. While I'm here mention that BCM590x/BCM5779x is Fast
Ethernet controller.
bge(4) still lacks support for some controllers but supporting
these controllers should be easy now and adding new controllers
do not require touching .Nd any more.

28450adca7 Sync the description of jumbo frame support with reality as of r185812;
it's also supported with BCM5702 (matched by BGE_ASICREV_BCM5703) but
bge(4) currently doesn't with neither BCM5714 nor BCM5780.

69f9d7b13f Add a HARDWARE section which lists supported devices. The actual
device listings has been moved (and in some cases more or less
rewritten) from the DESCRIPTION section.

This will be used later for automatically generating device listings
in the Hardware Notes, by parsing the manual pages.

95d674824f Add device driver support for the Broadcom BCM570x family of gigabit
ethernet controllers. This adds support for the 3Com 3c996-T, the
SysKonnect SK-9D21 and SK-9D41, and the built-in gigE NICs on
Dell PowerEdge 2550 servers. The latter configuration hauls ass:
preliminary measurements show TCP speeds of over 900Mbps using
only normal size frames.

TCP/IP checksum offload, jumbo frames and VLAN tag insertion/stripping
are supported, as well as interrupt moderation.

Still need to fix autonegotiation support for 1000baseSX NICs, but
beyond that, driver is pretty solid.
