are all very much alike (there is a difference between them wrt
performance).
It uses Netgraph.
This driver was mostly written by Doug Ambrisko and Julian Elischer and
I would like to thank Whistle for yet another contribution. And my
aplogies to them for me sitting on the driver for so long (2 months).
Also, many thanks to Reid Augustin from NetChip for providing me with a
prototype of their 1080 chip.
Be aware of the fact that this driver is very immature and has only been
tested very lightly. If someone feels like learning about Netgraph however
this is an excellent driver to start playing with.
coming later this week. Mitsuru IWASAKI provided a patch to -mobile which
I used to make sure I was doing the right thing but only a small part of
the actual patch was used.
This driver should support both the SSI (V.35 etc) E1/T1 unchannelized,
DS3 and HSSI cards. Only tested on the SSI card.

- Break out the support for the XMAC II's PHY into an miibus driver.
- Reorganize the probe/attach stuff using newbus. Each XMAC is now
attached to the parent GEnesis controller using newbus. This is
necessary since each XMAC must also have an attached miibus, and
the miibus read/write register routines need to be able to get
at the softc struct for each XMAC, not the one for the parent
controller. This allows me to get rid of the grotty code I added
for selecting the unit numbers for the ifnet interfaces: the unit
numbers are now derived from the newbus-assigned unit numbers,
which should track with the ifnet interface numbers. I think.
At the very least, there should never be any collisions.
- Add support for the SK-9821 and SK-9822 1000baseTX adapters. Special
thanks to SysKonnect for loaning me two adapters for testing.

In this implementation, attributes are backed to data vnodes in the
style of the quota support in FFS. Support for FFS extended
attributes may be enabled using the FFS_EXTATTR kernel option
(disabled by default). Userland utilities and man pages will be
committed in the next batch. VFS interfaces and man pages have
been in the repo since 4.0-RELEASE and are unchanged.

NICs. (Finally!) The PCMCIA, ISA and PCI varieties are all supported,
though only the ISA and PCI ones will work on the alpha for now.
PCCARD, ISA and PCI attachments are all provided. Also provided an
ancontrol(8) utility for configuring the NIC, man pages, and updated
pccard.conf.sample. ISA cards are supported in both ISA PnP and hard-wired
mode, although you must configure the kernel explicitly to support the
hardwired mode since you have to know the I/O address and port ahead
of time.
Special thanks to Doug Ambrisko for doing the initial newbus hackery
and getting it to work in infrastructure mode.
Collect together the components of several drivers and export eisa from
the i386-only area (It's not, it's on some alphas too). The code hasn't
been updated to work on the Alpha yet, but that can come later.
Repository copies were done a while ago.
Moving these now keeps them in consistant place across the 4.x series

USB-EL1202A chipset. Between this and the other two drivers, we should
have support for pretty much every USB ethernet adapter on the market.
The only other USB chip that I know of is the SMC USB97C196, and right
now I don't know of any adapters that use it (including the ones made
by SMC :/ ).
Note that the CATC chip supports a nifty feature: read and write combining.
This allows multiple ethernet packets to be transfered in a single USB
bulk in/out transaction. However I'm again having trouble with large
bulk in transfers like I did with the ADMtek chip, which leads me to
believe that our USB stack needs some work before we can really make
use of this feature. When/if things improve, I intend to revisit the
aue and cue drivers. For now, I've lost enough sanity points.
Note1: the correct interrupt level is invoked correctly for each driver.
For this purpose, drivers request the bus before being able to
call BUS_SETUP_INTR and BUS_TEARDOWN_INTR call is forced by the ppbus
core when drivers release it. Thus, when BUS_SETUP_INTR is called
at ppbus driver level, ppbus checks that the caller owns the
bus and stores the interrupt handler cookie (in order to unregister
it later).
Printing is impossible while plip link is up is still TRUE.
vpo (ZIP driver) and lpt are make in such a way that
using the ZIP and printing concurrently is permitted is also TRUE.
Note2: specific chipset detection is not done by default. PPC_PROBE_CHIPSET
is now needed to force chipset detection. If set, the flags 0x40
still avoid detection at boot.
Port of the pcf(4) driver to the newbus system (was previously directly
connected to the rootbus and attached by a bogus pcf_isa_probe function).
Packets are received inside USB bulk transfer callbacks, which run at
splusb() (actually splbio()). The packet input queues are meant to be
manipulated at splimp(). However the locking apparently breaks down under
certain circumstances and the input queues can get trampled.
There's a similar problem with if_ppp, which is driven by hardware/tty
interrupts from the serial driver, but which must also manipulate the
packet input queues at splimp(). The fix there is to use a netisr, and
that's the fix I used here. (I can hear you groaning back there. Hush up.)
The usb_ethersubr module maintains a single queue of its own. When a
packet is received in the USB callback routine, it's placed on this
queue with usb_ether_input(). This routine also schedules a soft net
interrupt with schednetisr(). The ISR routine then runs later, at
splnet, outside of the USB callback/interrupt context, and passes the
packet to ether_input(), hopefully in a safe manner.
The reason this is implemented as a separate module is that there are
a limited number of NETISRs that we can use, and snarfing one up for
each driver that needs it is wasteful (there will be three once I get
the CATC driver done). It also reduces code duplication to a certain
small extent. Unfortunately, it also needs to be linked in with the
usb.ko module in order for the USB ethernet drivers to share it.
Also removed some uneeded includes from if_aue.c and if_kue.c
