Remove unneeded rxtx handler, make que handler generic.
Do not allocate header mbufs in rx ring if not doing hdr split.
Release the lock in rxeof call to stack.
MFC for 8.1 asap
back in rxeof (I could see little point in taking it out),
and now release it before the stack entry.
Also, make it so the 82574 does not configure for multiqueue
when its not used in the stack.
unneeded for legacy hardware.
Also remove some TSO related cruft.
Add some watchdog_time setting that was missing, thanks
to Mikolaj Golub for pointing that out.
- code flow in handler could let interrupt be
reenabled when not wanted.
- change where the RX lock is taken to improve
performance.
- adapter->msix is true for MSI systems also,
it needs to explicitly test for 82574, good one :)
- add CRC stripping to the RX side, this was handled
by some obscure code in rxeof previously, its easier
to simply have the hardware strip it now.
- Add back an ALTQ change that slipped between the cracks
- Add an update to the watchdog_time in the xmit code, not
doing this in ixgbe caused problems, think its needed here
as well.
VLAN HWFILTER from being used by default, this breaks
stacked pseudo devices, and as it turns out, also breaks
virtual machines that happen to use VLANS (didn't know that
before :). Put the fix back into the em driver, and for good
measure add the same code to the igb driver where it should
have been anyway.
change the argument type to igb_rxeof() to the
correct type. Note, any users of POLLING must
be sure and set the number of queues to 1 for
things to work correctly.
em revision 7.0.0:
- Using driver devclass, seperate legacy (pre-pcie) code
into a seperate source file. This will at least help
protect against regression issues. It compiles along
with em, and is transparent to end use, devices in each
appear to be 'emX'. When using em in a modular form this
also allows the legacy stuff to be defined out.
- Add tx and rx rings as in igb, in the 82574 this becomes
actual multiqueue for the first time (2 queues) while in
other PCIE adapters its just make code cleaner.
- Add RX mbuf handling logic that matches igb, this will
eliminate packet drops due to temporary mbuf shortage.
igb revision 1.9.3:
- Following the ixgbe code, use a new approach in what
was called 'get_buf', the routine now has been made
independent of rxeof, it now does the update to the
engine TDT register, this design allows temporary
mbuf resources to become non-critical, not requiring
a packet to be discarded, instead it just returns and
does not increment the tail pointer.
- With the above change it was also unnecessary to keep
'spare' maps around, since we do not have the discard
issue.
- Performance tweaks and improvements to the code also.
MFC in a week
- introduce drbr_needs_enqueue that returns whether the interface/br needs
an enqueue operation: returns true if altq is enabled or there are
already packets in the ring (as we need to maintain packet order)
- update all drbr consumers
- fix drbr_flush
- avoid using the driver queue (IFQ_DRV_*) in the altq case as the
multiqueue consumer does not provide enough protection, serialize altq
interaction with the main queue lock
- make drbr_dequeue_cond work with altq

lagg and vlan the vlan attach/detach event is not being
handed down to em, this caused some init code not to run,
and thus VLANs did not work. Ultimately having the event
get propagated would be nice, but for now the solution is
to have HWFILTER off by default, when this is the case
VLANs will work, ifconfig can be used to turn it on and
then get HW tag filtering.
igb now has a queue notion that has a single interrupt
with an RX/TX pair, this will reduce the total interrupts
seen on a system. Both em and igb have a new watchdog
method. igb has fixes from Pyun Yong-Hyeon that have
improved stability, thank you :)
I wish to MFC this for 7.3 asap, please test if able.
drivers. These add new hardware support, most importantly
the pch (i5 chipset) in the em driver. Also, both drivers
now have the simplified (and I hope improved) watchdog
code. The igb driver uses the new RX cleanup that I
first implemented in ixgbe.
em - version 6.9.24
igb - version 1.8.4
page fault panic on initialization due to a large
number of bounce pages being allocated. This is due
to the dma tag requiring page alignment on mbuf mapping.
This was removed some time back from the ixgbe driver
and is not needed here either.
Without this changeset there will be no way to prevent these NICs from
sending ARP, which is harmful in server farms that is configured as
"Direct Server Return" behind a load balancer.
A better fix would remove the whole hack completely but it would be
later than 8.0-RELEASE.

- When a vlan event occurs a check was not made that
the event was actually for the interface, thus resulting
in a panic. All three drivers have this vulnerability. Add
a check for this condition.
- Secondly, there was a duplicate buf_ring free in the em
driver resulting in a panic on unload. Remove.

IF_ADDR_UNLOCK() across network device drivers when accessing the
per-interface multicast address list, if_multiaddrs. This will
allow us to change the locking strategy without affecting our driver
programming interface or binary interface.
For two wireless drivers, remove unnecessary locking, since they
don't actually access the multicast address list.

CPU for too long period than necessary. Additively, interfaces are kept
polled (in the tick) even if no more packets are available.
In order to avoid such situations a new generic mechanism can be
implemented in proactive way, keeping track of the time spent on any
packet and fragmenting the time for any tick, stopping the processing
as soon as possible.
In order to implement such mechanism, the polling handler needs to
change, returning the number of packets processed.
While the intended logic is not part of this patch, the polling KPI is
broken by this commit, adding an int return value and the new flag
IFCAP_POLLING_NOCOUNT (which will signal that the return value is
meaningless for the installed handler and checking should be skipped).
Bump __FreeBSD_version in order to signal such situation.

will sometimes fail to initialize problem due to a lock
contention with management hardware. However, in order to
deliver that fix it was necessary to take a shared code
update as a whole, and this required scattered changes in
the core code to be compatible.
The em driver now has VLAN HW support added as the igb
driver had previously.
MFC after: ASAP - in time for 7.1 RELEASE
- changes in support of the VLAN filter fix to 126850
- removal of a bunch of legacy code that was cruft, if not
possibly harmful.
- removal of POLLING from this driver, with multiqueue and
MSIX it just makes no sense here.
- Fix an LRO bug that I've been working on internally, intermittent
panics under stress, the problem was releasing the RX ring lock
before the LRO flushing.
- Following the above fix I now enable LRO by default
- For performance reasons increase the default number of RX queues
to 4.
- Add AIM - "Adaptive Interrupt Moderation", a fancy way of saying
that the EITR value is dynamically changed based on the size of
packets in the last interrupt interval.
- Much goodness to try, enjoy!!
proved to be necessary to make the static drivers work
in EITHER/OR or BOTH configurations. Modules will still
build in sys/modules/igb or em as before.
This also updates the igb driver for support for the 82576
adapter, adds shared code fixes, and etc....
