The si(4) driver supported multiport serial adapters for ISA, EISA, and
PCI buses. This driver does not use bus_space, instead it depends on
direct use of the pointer returned by rman_get_virtual(). It is also
still locked by Giant and calls for patch testing to convert it to use
bus_space were unanswered.

PCI-express HotPlug support is implemented via bits in the slot
registers of the PCI-express capability of the downstream port along
with an interrupt that triggers when bits in the slot status register
change.
This is implemented for FreeBSD by adding HotPlug support to the
PCI-PCI bridge driver which attaches to the virtual PCI-PCI bridges
representing downstream ports on HotPlug slots. The PCI-PCI bridge
driver registers an interrupt handler to receive HotPlug events. It
also uses the slot registers to determine the current HotPlug state
and drive an internal HotPlug state machine. For simplicty of
implementation, the PCI-PCI bridge device detaches and deletes the
child PCI device when a card is removed from a slot and creates and
attaches a PCI child device when a card is inserted into the slot.
The PCI-PCI bridge driver provides a bus_child_present which claims
that child devices are present on HotPlug-capable slots only when a
card is inserted. Rather than requiring a timeout in the RC for
config accesses to not-present children, the pcib_read/write_config
methods fail all requests when a card is not present (or not yet
ready).
These changes include support for various optional HotPlug
capabilities such as a power controller, mechanical latch,
electro-mechanical interlock, indicators, and an attention button.
It also includes support for devices which require waiting for
command completion events before initiating a subsequent HotPlug
command. However, it has only been tested on ExpressCard systems
which support surprise removal and have none of these optional
capabilities.
PCI-express HotPlug support is conditional on the PCI_HP option
which is enabled by default on arm64, x86, and powerpc.

I/OAT is also referred to as Crystal Beach DMA and is a Platform Storage
Extension (PSE) on some Intel server platforms.
This driver currently supports DMA descriptors only and is part of a
larger effort to upstream an interconnect between multiple systems using
the Non-Transparent Bridge (NTB) PSE.
For now, this driver is only built on AMD64 platforms. It may be ported
to work on i386 later, if that is desired. The hardware is exclusive to
x86.
Further documentation on ioat(4), including API documentation and usage,
can be found in the new manual page.
Bring in a test tool, ioatcontrol(8), in tools/tools/ioat. The test
tool is not hooked up to the build and is not intended for end users.

- Split the driver into independent pf and vf loadables. This is
in preparation for SRIOV support which will be following shortly.
This also allows us to keep a seperate revision control over the
two parts, making for easier sustaining.
- Make the TX/RX code a shared/seperated file, in the old code base
the ixv code would miss fixes that went into ixgbe, this model
will eliminate that problem.
- The driver loadables will now match the device names, something that
has been requested for some time.
- Rather than a modules/ixgbe there is now modules/ix and modules/ixv
- It will also be possible to make your static kernel with only one
or the other for streamlined installs, or both.
Enjoy!

Implement the interace to create SR-IOV Virtual Functions (VFs).
When a driver registers that they support SR-IOV by calling
pci_setup_iov(), the SR-IOV code creates a new node in /dev/iov
for that device. An ioctl can be invoked on that device to
create VFs and have the driver initialize them.
At this point, allocating memory I/O windows (BARs) is not
supported.

NAT64 as translation mechanism. Last non-trivial commits to both
faith(4) and faithd(8) happened more than 12 years ago, so I assume
it is time to drop RFC3142 in FreeBSD.

For now restrict it to amd64. Other architectures might be
re-added later once tested.
Remove the drivers from the global NOTES and files files and move
them to the amd64 specifics.
Remove the drivers from the i386 modules build and only leave the
amd64 version.
Rather than depending on "inet" depend on "pci" and make sure that
ixl(4) and ixlv(4) can be compiled independently [2]. This also
allows the drivers to build properly on IPv4-only or IPv6-only
kernels.

This is derived from the mps(4) driver, but it supports only the 12Gb
IT and IR hardware including the SAS 3004, SAS 3008 and SAS 3108.
Some notes about this driver:
o The 12Gb hardware can do "FastPath" I/O, and that capability is included in
this driver.
o WarpDrive functionality has been removed, since it isn't supported in
the 12Gb driver interface.
o The Scatter/Gather list handling code is significantly different between
the 6Gb and 12Gb hardware. The 12Gb boards support IEEE Scatter/Gather
lists.
Thanks to LSI for developing and testing this driver for FreeBSD.
