Differences between LAN7800 and LAN7850 from the driver's perspective:
* The LAN7800 muxes EEPROM signals with LEDs, so LED mode needs to be
disabled when reading/writing EEPROM. The EEPROM is not muxed on the
LAN7850.
* The Linux driver enables automatic duplex and speed detection when
there is no EEPROM, for the LAN7800 only. With this FreeBSD driver
LAN7850-based adapters without a configuration EEPROM fail to link
(with or without the automatic duplex and speed detection code), so
I have just followed the example of the Linux driver for now.

These ioctls are not documented and only stubbed in a few drivers: mse(4),
psm(4) and syscon's sysmouse(4). The only exception is MOUSE_GETVARS
implemented in psm(4)
Given the fact that they were introduced 20 years ago and implementation
has never been completed, remove any related code.

Remove rmlock from gif_softc, use epoch(9) and CK_LIST instead.
Move more AF-related code into AF-related locations.
Use hash table to speedup lookup of needed softc. Interfaces
with GIF_IGNORE_SOURCE flag are stored in plain CK_LIST.
Sysctl net.link.gif.parallel_tunnels is removed. The removal was planed
16 years ago, and actually it could work only for outbound direction.
Each protocol, that can be handled by if_gif(4) interface is registered
by separate encap handler, this helps avoid invoking the handler
for unrelated protocols (GRE, PIM, etc.).
This change allows dramatically improve performance when many gif(4)
interfaces are used.

defaults.
Default to color numbers in reverse order to CPU numbers (instead of
in the same order with white first and wrapping to dark grey), so that
the brightest bright colors are used first. Don't use dark grey at all;
replace it by dark green.
Syscons has too many compile-time options, but this one is needed in
in case the defaults give something like white on white, or the user
really hates this feature and can't wait to turn it off in rc.

with poor assert choice happen often enough that this departure seems
warranted. Also, tighten up the previous example (there's no need

The hardware rate limiting feature is enabled by the RATELIMIT kernel
option. Please refer to ifconfig(8) and the txrtlmt option and the
SO_MAX_PACING_RATE set socket option for more information. This
feature is compatible with hardware transmit send offload, TSO.
A set of sysctl(8) knobs under dev.mce.<N>.rate_limit are provided to
setup the ratelimit table and also to fine tune various rate limit
related parameters.

Each TCP connection that uses the system default cc_newreno(4) congestion
control algorithm module leaks a "struct newreno" (8 bytes of memory) at
connection initialisation time. The NULL-pointer dereference is only germane
when using the ABE feature, which is disabled by default.
While at it:
- Defer the allocation of memory until it is actually needed given that ABE is
optional and disabled by default.
- Document the ENOMEM errno in getsockopt(2)/setsockopt(2).
- Document ENOMEM and ENOBUFS in tcp(4) as being synonymous given that they are
used interchangeably throughout the code.
- Fix a few other nits also accidentally omitted from the original patch.

This hardware isn't totally ancient, about equal to a mxge(4) or mlx4en(4),
but the company was sold to Exar which then promptly exited the Ethernet
business so the card was commercially available for under 2 years. On deep
search, the only usage of these cards I found was by the importing of the
driver. There are code quality issues identified by Brooks and Hiren and
no visible use nor maintainership that warrant removal from FreeBSD 12.0.

This is a component of a system which lets the kernel dump core to
a remote host after a panic, rather than to a local storage device.
The server component is available in the ports tree. netdump is
particularly useful on diskless systems.
The netdump(4) man page contains some details describing the protocol.
Support for configuring netdump will be added to dumpon(8) in a future
commit. To use netdump, the kernel must have been compiled with the
NETDUMP option.
The initial revision of netdump was written by Darrell Anderson and
was integrated into Sandvine's OS, from which this version was derived.
