This commit adds support for the NetBSD MII abstraction layer and MII-compliant PHY drivers. Many 10/100 ethernet NICs available today either use an MII transceiver or have built-in transceivers that can be programmed using an MII interface. It makes sense then to separate this support out into common code instead of duplicating it in all of the NIC drivers. The mii code also handles all of the media detection, selection and reporting via the ifmedia interface. This is basically the same code from NetBSD's /sys/dev/mii, except it's been adapted to FreeBSD's bus architecture. The advantage to this is that it automatically allows everything to be turned into a loadable module. There are some common functions for use in drivers once an miibus has been attached (mii_mediachg(), mii_pollstat(), mii_tick()) as well as individual PHY drivers. There is also a generic driver for all PHYs that aren't handled by a specific driver. It's possible to do this because all 10/100 PHYs implement the same general register set in addition to their vendor-specific register sets, so for the most part you can use one driver for pretty much any PHY. There are a couple of oddball exceptions though, hence the need to have specific drivers. There are two layers: the generic "miibus" layer and the PHY driver layer. The drivers are child devices of "miibus" and the "miibus" is a child of a given NIC driver. The "miibus" code and the PHY drivers can actually be compiled and kldoaded as completely separate modules or compiled together into one module. For the moment I'm using the latter approach since the code is relatively small. Currently there are only three PHY drivers here: the generic driver, the built-in 3Com XL driver and the NS DP83840 driver. I'll be adding others later as I convert various NIC drivers to use this code. I realize that I'm cvs adding this stuff instead of importing it onto a separate vendor branch, but in my opinion the import approach doesn't really offer any significant advantage: I'm going to be maintaining this stuff and writing my own PHY drivers one way or the other.

o Flesh out the generic IEEE 802.3 annex 31B full duplex flow control support in mii(4): - Merge generic flow control advertisement (which can be enabled by passing by MIIF_DOPAUSE to mii_attach(9)) and parsing support from NetBSD into mii_physubr.c and ukphy_subr.c. Unlike as in NetBSD, IFM_FLOW isn't implemented as a global option via the "don't care mask" but instead as a media specific option this. This has the following advantages: o allows flow control advertisement with autonegotiation to be turned on and off via ifconfig(8) with the default typically being off (though MIIF_FORCEPAUSE has been added causing flow control to be always advertised, allowing to easily MFC this changes for drivers that previously used home-grown support for flow control that behaved that way without breaking POLA) o allows to deal with PHY drivers where flow control advertisement with manual selection doesn't work or at least isn't implemented, like it's the case with brgphy(4), e1000phy(4) and ip1000phy(4), by setting MIIF_NOMANPAUSE o the available combinations of media options are readily available from the `ifconfig -m` output - Add IFM_FLOW to IFM_SHARED_OPTION_DESCRIPTIONS and IFM_ETH_RXPAUSE and IFM_ETH_TXPAUSE to IFM_SUBTYPE_ETHERNET_OPTION_DESCRIPTIONS so these are understood by ifconfig(8). o Make the master/slave support in mii(4) actually usable: - Change IFM_ETH_MASTER from being implemented as a global option via the "don't care mask" to a media specific one as it actually is only applicable to IFM_1000_T to date. - Let mii_phy_setmedia() set GTCR_MAN_MS in IFM_1000_T slave mode to actually configure manually selected slave mode (like we also do in the PHY specific implementations). - Add IFM_ETH_MASTER to IFM_SUBTYPE_ETHERNET_OPTION_DESCRIPTIONS so it is understood by ifconfig(8). o Switch bge(4), bce(4), msk(4), nfe(4) and stge(4) along with brgphy(4), e1000phy(4) and ip1000phy(4) to use the generic flow control support instead of home-grown solutions via IFM_FLAGs. This includes changing these PHY drivers and smcphy(4) to no longer unconditionally advertise support for flow control but only if the selected media has IFM_FLOW set (or MIIF_FORCEPAUSE is set) and implemented for these media variants, i.e. typically only for copper. o Switch brgphy(4), ciphy(4), e1000phy(4) and ip1000phy(4) to report and set IFM_1000_T master mode via IFM_ETH_MASTER instead of via IFF_LINK0 and some IFM_FLAGn. o Switch brgphy(4) to add at least the the supported copper media based on the contents of the BMSR via mii_phy_add_media() instead of hardcoding them. The latter approach seems to have developed historically, besides causing unnecessary code duplication it was also undesirable because brgphy_mii_phy_auto() already based the capability advertisement on the contents of the BMSR though. o Let brgphy(4) set IFM_1000_T master mode on all supported PHY and not just BCM5701. Apparently this was a misinterpretation of a workaround in the Linux tg3 driver; BCM5701 seem to require RGPHY_1000CTL_MSE and BRGPHY_1000CTL_MSC to be set when configuring autonegotiation but this doesn't mean we can't set these as well on other PHYs for manual media selection. o Let ukphy_status() report IFM_1000_T master mode via IFM_ETH_MASTER so IFM_1000_T master mode support now is generally available with all PHY drivers. o Don't let e1000phy(4) set master/slave bits for IFM_1000_SX as it's not applicable there.

The "miibus" code and the PHY drivers can actually be compiled and kldoaded as completely separate modules or compiled together into one module. For the moment I'm using the latter approach since the code is relatively small. Currently there are only three PHY drivers here: the generic driver, the built-in 3Com XL driver and the NS DP83840 driver. I'll be adding others later as I convert various NIC drivers to use this code. I realize that I'm cvs adding this stuff instead of importing it onto a separate vendor branch, but in my opinion the import approach doesn't really offer any significant advantage: I'm going to be maintaining this stuff and writing my own PHY drivers one way or the other.

Convert exphy and ukphy over to the new code. exphy is done flying blind, ukphy is tested on one card.

This commit adds support for the NetBSD MII abstraction layer and MII-compliant PHY drivers. Many 10/100 ethernet NICs available today either use an MII transceiver or have built-in transceivers that can be programmed using an MII interface. It makes sense then to separate this support out into common code instead of duplicating it in all of the NIC drivers. The mii code also handles all of the media detection, selection and reporting via the ifmedia interface. This is basically the same code from NetBSD's /sys/dev/mii, except it's been adapted to FreeBSD's bus architecture. The advantage to this is that it automatically allows everything to be turned into a loadable module. There are some common functions for use in drivers once an miibus has been attached (mii_mediachg(), mii_pollstat(), mii_tick()) as well as individual PHY drivers. There is also a generic driver for all PHYs that aren't handled by a specific driver. It's possible to do this because all 10/100 PHYs implement the same general register set in addition to their vendor-specific register sets, so for the most part you can use one driver for pretty much any PHY. There are a couple of oddball exceptions though, hence the need to have specific drivers. There are two layers: the generic "miibus" layer and the PHY driver layer. The drivers are child devices of "miibus" and the "miibus" is a child of a given NIC driver. The "miibus" code and the PHY drivers can actually be compiled and kldoaded as completely separate modules or compiled together into one module. For the moment I'm using the latter approach since the code is relatively small. Currently there are only three PHY drivers here: the generic driver, the built-in 3Com XL driver and the NS DP83840 driver. I'll be adding others later as I convert various NIC drivers to use this code.
