network layer (ether).
- Don't abuse module names to facilitate ifconfig module loading;
  such abuse isn't really needed.  (And if we do need type information

db5f2ca8df Fix if_vr's handling of vr_encap failures. 3 parts:
- Don't bother setting OACTIVE when the descriptors are all full
  or there's a vr_encap failure, it doesn't help anything.
- Correctly roll back on the descriptor list after a failure
  so as not to corrupt the list.
- Add a missing VR_UNLOCK().

Without these changes, vr_encap failure (which is assured during
a low mbuf situation) would result in the card locking until
the watchdog could fire.

54f1f1d1e6 Clean up locking and resource management for pci/if_*
- Remove locking of the softc in the attach method, instead depending on
  bus_setup_intr being at the end of attach (delaying interrupt enable until
  after ether_ifattach is called)
- Call *_detach directly in the error case of attach, depending on checking
  in detach to only free resources that were allocated.  This puts all
  resource freeing in one place, avoiding thinkos that lead to memory leaks.
- Add bus_child_present check to calls to *_stop in the detach method to
  be sure hw is present before touching its registers.
- Remove bzero softc calls since device_t should do this for us.
- dc: move interrupt allocation back where it was before.  It was unnecessary
  to move it.  This reverts part of 1.88
- rl: move irq allocation before ether_ifattach.  Problems might have been
  caused by allocating the irq after enabling interrupts on the card.

97e6eca55d Switch the if_vr driver from using our generic MII routines over to
using the Rhine's internal shift registers which are designed
for the job.  This reduces the amount of time we wait around shifting
bits, and seems to work better with some chips.

Also, provide a workaround for some newer cards which report fake PHYs
at multiple addresses.  (As more cards are ID'd, I'm sure this part
of the code will have to be expanded to cover more cases.)

b72d483eb5 Fixes from Thomas Nystrom to fix hanging problems experienced by vr cards
under load.

This patch has been tested by Thomas and other for more than a month now,
and all (known) hangs seem to be solved.

Thomas's explanation of the patch:

*  Fix the problem with the printing of the RX-error.

*  Code from if_fet do better deal with the RX-recovery including a
   timeout of the RX-turnoff.

*  The call to vr_rxeof before vr_rxeoc have been moved to a point
   where the RX-part of the chip is turned off. Otherwise there is a
   window where new data could have been written to the buffer chain
   before the RX-part is turned off. If this happens the chip will see
   a busy rx-buffer. I have no evidence that this have occured but
   god knows what the chip will do in this case!

*  I have added a timeout of the TX-turnoff. I have checked and in
   my 900 MHz system the flags for turnoff (both RX & TX) is seen at
   the first check in the loop.

*  I could see that I got the VR_ISR_DROPPED interrupt sometimes and
   started to thinking about this. I then realized that no recovery is
   needed for this case and therefore I only count it as an rxerror
   (which was not done before).

*  Finally I have changed the FIFO RX threshhold to 128 bytes. When I
   did this the VR_ISR_DROPPED interrupt went away. Theory: The chip
   will receive a complete frame before it tries to write it out to
   memory then the RX threshold is set to store'n'forward. IF the frame
   is large AND the next rx frame also is large AND the bus is busy
   transfering a TX frame to the TX fifo THEN the second received
   frame wont fit in the FIFO and is then dropped. By having the RX
   threshold set to 128 the RX fifo is emptied faster.

000c679b3c Enhance the use of the watchdog timer in this driver so that it will
allow recovery from transmission lockups which occur in the middle
of the descriptor list, rather than just at the beginning.

For some unknown reason, Rhine II chips have a tendency to stop
transmitting while under heavy load, possibly due to collisions.
Whether this behavior is due to a hardware bug or a driver glitch
is unknown as of now.

In either case, this change allows the driver to gracefully recover
from such situations.

Special thanks go to The Anarcat <anarcat@anarcat.dyndns.org>, who
bugged me into looking at this and to
Dominic Marks <dominic_marks@btinternet.com>, who performed a great

f5eece3fb9 Change m_devget()'s outdated and unused `offset' argument to actually mean
something: offset into the first mbuf of the target chain before copying
the source data over.

Make drivers using m_devget() with a first argument "data - ETHER_ALIGN"
to use the offset argument to pass ETHER_ALIGN in. The way it was previously
done is potentially dangerous if the source data was at the top of a page
and the offset caused the previous page to be copied (if the
previous page has not yet been appropriately mapped).

The old `offset' argument in m_devget() is not used anywhere (it's always
0) and dates back to ~1995 (and earlier?) when support for ethernet trailers
existed. With that support gone, it was merely collecting dust.

73e89fa2d4 Remember to actually program the MAC address into the unicast filter
in vr_init(). The VIA Rhine chip happens to be able to automatically
read its station address from the EEPROM automatically when reset,
so you don't need to program the filter if you want to keep using the
factory default address, but if you want to change it with "ifconfig vr0
ether xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx" then we need to manually set it in the init
routine.

9ed346bab0 Change and clean the mutex lock interface.
mtx_enter(lock, type) becomes:

mtx_lock(lock) for sleep locks (MTX_DEF-initialized locks)
mtx_lock_spin(lock) for spin locks (MTX_SPIN-initialized)

similarily, for releasing a lock, we now have:

mtx_unlock(lock) for MTX_DEF and mtx_unlock_spin(lock) for MTX_SPIN.
We change the caller interface for the two different types of locks
because the semantics are entirely different for each case, and this
makes it explicitly clear and, at the same time, it rids us of the
extra `type' argument.

The enter->lock and exit->unlock change has been made with the idea
that we're "locking data" and not "entering locked code" in mind.

Further, remove all additional "flags" previously passed to the
lock acquire/release routines with the exception of two:

MTX_QUIET and MTX_NOSWITCH

The functionality of these flags is preserved and they can be passed
to the lock/unlock routines by calling the corresponding wrappers:

mtx_{lock, unlock}_flags(lock, flag(s)) and
mtx_{lock, unlock}_spin_flags(lock, flag(s)) for MTX_DEF and MTX_SPIN
locks, respectively.

Re-inline some lock acq/rel code; in the sleep lock case, we only
inline the _obtain_lock()s in order to ensure that the inlined code
fits into a cache line. In the spin lock case, we inline recursion and
actually only perform a function call if we need to spin. This change
has been made with the idea that we generally tend to avoid spin locks
and that also the spin locks that we do have and are heavily used
(i.e. sched_lock) do recurse, and therefore in an effort to reduce
function call overhead for some architectures (such as alpha), we
inline recursion for this case.

Create a new malloc type for the witness code and retire from using
the M_DEV type. The new type is called M_WITNESS and is only declared
if WITNESS is enabled.

Begin cleaning up some machdep/mutex.h code - specifically updated the
"optimized" inlined code in alpha/mutex.h and wrote MTX_LOCK_SPIN
and MTX_UNLOCK_SPIN asm macros for the i386/mutex.h as we presently
need those.

Finally, caught up to the interface changes in all sys code.

419146d944 Bug fixes that I've put together while working on a project in the office:

if_dc: The miibus_read and miibus_write methods keep swapping in and
       out of MII mode by fiddling with CSR6 for cards with MII PHYs.
       This is a hack to support the original Macronix 98713 card which
       has built-in NWAY that uses an MII-like management interface
       even though it uses serial transceivers. Conditionalize this
       so that we only do this on 98713 chips, since it does bad things
       to genuine tulip chips (and maybe other clones).

08812b3925 Implement MTX_RECURSE flag for mtx_init().
All calls to mtx_init() for mutexes that recurse must now include
the MTX_RECURSE bit in the flag argument variable. This change is in
preparation for an upcoming (further) mutex API cleanup.
The witness code will call panic() if a lock is found to recurse but
the MTX_RECURSE bit was not set during the lock's initialization.

The old MTX_RECURSE "state" bit (in mtx_lock) has been renamed to
MTX_RECURSED, which is more appropriate given its meaning.

The following locks have been made "recursive," thus far:
eventhandler, Giant, callout, sched_lock, possibly some others declared
in the architecture-specific code, all of the network card driver locks
in pci/, as well as some other locks in dev/ stuff that I've found to
be recursive.

0355003f26 Un-do the changes to the DRIVER_MODULE() declarations in these drivers.
This whole idea isn't going to work until somebody makes the bus/kld
code smarter. The idea here is to change the module's internal name
from "foo" to "if_foo" so that ifconfig can tell a network driver from
a non-network one. However doing this doesn't work correctly no matter
how you slice it. For everything to work, you have to change the name
in both the driver_t struct and the DRIVER_MODULE() declaration. The
problems are:

- If you change the name in both places, then the kernel thinks that
  the device's name is now "if_foo", so you get things like:

if_foo0: <FOO ethernet> irq foo at device foo on pcifoo
if_foo0: Ethernet address: foo:foo:foo:foo:foo:foo

  This is bogus. Now the device name doesn't agree with the logical
  interface name. There's no reason for this, and it violates the
  principle of least astonishment.

- If you leave the name in the driver_t struct as "foo" and only
  change the names in the DRIVER_MODULE() declaration to "if_foo" then
  attaching drivers to child devices doesn't work because the names don't
  agree. This breaks miibus: drivers that need to have miibuses and PHY
  drivers attached never get them.

In other words: damned if you do, damned if you don't.

This needs to be thought through some more. Since the drivers that
use miibus are broken, I have to change these all back in order to
make them work again. Yes this will stop ifconfig from being able
to demand load driver modules. On the whole, I'd rather have that
than having the drivers not work at all.

08339b4fa4 Convert the VIA Rhine driver to newbus and set it up to be compiled as
a module. Also modified the code to work on FreeBSD/alpha and added
device vr0 to the alpha GENERIC config.

While I was in the neighborhood, I noticed that I was still using
#define NFPX 1 in all of the Makefiles that I'd copied from the fxp
module. I don't really use #define Nfoo X so it didn't matter, but
I decided to customize this correctly anyway.

820f359d7e Change the cast in pci_map_port() from u_short * to pci_port_t * so it
compiles cleanly on the Alpha.  (On the alpha, the port type is an int,
not a short).
Cast a couple of pointers to ints via 'uintptr_t' rather than 'unsigned
int' since uintptr_t is long (64 bit) on Alpha, as are pointers.

579f45fa60 Simplify the COMPAT_PCI_DRIVER/DATA_SET hack. We can add:
#define COMPAT_PCI_DRIVER(name,data) DATA_SET(pcidevice_set,data)
.. to 2.2.x and 3.x if people think it's worth it.  Driver writers can do
this if it's not defined.  (The reason for this is that I'm trying to
progressively eliminate use of linker_sets where it hurts modularity and
runtime load capability, and these DATA_SET's keep getting in the way.)

727c88e9da Tweak the Macronix driver to hopefully make it more reliable:
- Change to the same transmit scheme as the PNIC driver.
- Dynamically set the cache alignment, and set burst size the same as
  the PNIC driver in mx_init().
- Enable 'store and forward' mode by default. This is the slowest option
  and it does reduce 100Mbps performance somewhat, but it's the most
  reliable setting I can find. I'm more interested in having the driver
  work reliably than trying to squeeze the best performance out of it.
  The reason I'm doing this is that on *some* systems you may see a lot
  of transmit underruns (which I can't explain: these are *fast* test
  systems) and these errors seem to cause unusual and decidedly
  non-tulip-like behavior. In normal 10Mbps mode, performance is fine
  (you can easily saturate a 10Mbps link).

Also tweak some of the other drivers:

- Increase the size of the TX ring for the Winbond, ASIX, VIA Rhine
  and PNIC drivers.
- Set a larger value for ifq_maxlen in the ThunderLAN driver. The setting
  of TL_TX_LIST_CNT - 1 is too low (the ThunderLAN driver only allocates
  20 transmit descriptors, and I don't want to fiddle with that now
  because the ThunderLAN's descriptor structure is an oddball size
  compared to the others).

96b3554e5c Use COMPAT_PCI_DRIVER() for registration if it exists. This shouldn't
hurt the driver portability to 3.x too much for where drivers are shared.

141ae16656 Add support for still more cheapo 10/100 cards: Delta Electronics and
Addtron appear to have their own VIA Rhine II and RealTek 8139 boards
with custom PCI vendor and device IDs. This commit updates the PCI
vendor and device lists in the vr and rl drivers so that we can probe
the additional devices.

6c70e5b472 Tweak the vr_start() and vr_rxeof() routines a little to improve
performance and reliability a little. There was a condition before
where transmission would stall during periods of heavy traffic
exchange between two hosts. Also set the 'want interrupt' bit in
receive descriptor control words.

57ff492d3e Minor bug: in the case where allocating a fresh mbuf for the receive ring
fails, we need to set the descriptor status word so that the 'OWN' bit
is set again so that the chip can reuse it. Previously, this wasn't being
done.

d482d37e81 The VIA Rhine appears to be yet another chip that always includes the
ethernet CRC in received frames and has no option to turn this behavior
off. Trim the CRC off manually in vr_rxeof().

f5c444e19e Add sanity check to foo_start() routines: in the unlikely (though
apparently possible) event that the transmit start routine is
called with and empty if_snd queue, bail out instead of dereferencing
unilitialized transmit list pointers and panicking.

726ff6a158 An early Christmas present: add driver support for a whole bunch of
PCI fast ethernet adapters, plus man pages.

if_pn.c: Netgear FA310TX model D1, LinkSys LNE100TX, Matrox FastNIC 10/100,
         various other PNIC devices

if_mx.c: NDC Communications SOHOware SFA100 (Macronix 98713A), various
         other boards based on the Macronix 98713, 98713A, 98715, 98715A
         and 98725 chips

if_vr.c: D-Link DFE530-TX, other boards based on the VIA Rhine and
         Rhine II chips (note: the D-Link and certain other cards
         that actually use a Rhine II chip still return the PCI
         device ID of the Rhine I. I don't know why, and it doesn't
         really matter since the driver treats both chips the same
         anyway.)

if_wb.c: Trendware TE100-PCIE and various other cards based on the
         Winbond W89C840F chip (the Trendware card is identical to
         the sample boards Winbond sent me, so who knows how many
         clones there are running around)

All drivers include support for ifmedia, BPF and hardware multicast
filtering.

Also updated GENERIC, LINT, RELNOTES.TXT, userconfig and
sysinstall device list.

I also have a driver for the ASIX AX88140A in the works.
