Because driver is accessing a common MII structure in
mii_pollstat(), updating user supplied structure should be done
before dropping a driver lock.

(reporting IFM_LOOP based on BMCR_LOOP is left in place though as
it might provide useful for debugging). For most mii(4) drivers it
was unclear whether the PHYs driven by them actually support
loopback or not. Moreover, typically loopback mode also needs to
be activated on the MAC, which none of the Ethernet drivers using
mii(4) implements. Given that loopback media has no real use (and
obviously hardly had a chance to actually work) besides for driver
development (which just loopback mode should be sufficient for
though, i.e one doesn't necessary need support for loopback media)
support for it is just dropped as both NetBSD and OpenBSD already
did quite some time ago.
- Let mii_phy_add_media() also announce the support of IFM_NONE.
- Restructure the PHY entry points to use a structure of entry points
instead of discrete function pointers, and extend this to include
a "reset" entry point. Make sure any PHY-specific reset routine is
always used, and provide one for lxtphy(4) which disables MII
interrupts (as is done for a few other PHYs we have drivers for).
This includes changing NIC drivers which previously just called the
generic mii_phy_reset() to now actually call the PHY-specific reset
routine, which might be crucial in some cases. While at it, the
redundant checks in these NIC drivers for mii->mii_instance not being
zero before calling the reset routines were removed because as soon
as one PHY driver attaches mii->mii_instance is incremented and we
hardly can end up in their media change callbacks etc if no PHY driver
has attached as mii_attach() would have failed in that case and not
attach a miibus(4) instance.
Consequently, NIC drivers now no longer should call mii_phy_reset()
directly, so it was removed from EXPORT_SYMS.
- Add a mii_phy_dev_attach() as a companion helper to mii_phy_dev_probe().
The purpose of that function is to perform the common steps to attach
a PHY driver instance and to hook it up to the miibus(4) instance and to
optionally also handle the probing, addition and initialization of the
supported media. So all a PHY driver without any special requirements
has to do in its bus attach method is to call mii_phy_dev_attach()
along with PHY-specific MIIF_* flags, a pointer to its PHY functions
and the add_media set to one. All PHY drivers were updated to take
advantage of mii_phy_dev_attach() as appropriate. Along with these
changes the capability mask was added to the mii_softc structure so
PHY drivers taking advantage of mii_phy_dev_attach() but still
handling media on their own do not need to fiddle with the MII attach
arguments anyway.
- Keep track of the PHY offset in the mii_softc structure. This is done
for compatibility with NetBSD/OpenBSD.
- Keep track of the PHY's OUI, model and revision in the mii_softc
structure. Several PHY drivers require this information also after
attaching and previously had to wrap their own softc around mii_softc.
NetBSD/OpenBSD also keep track of the model and revision on their
mii_softc structure. All PHY drivers were updated to take advantage
as appropriate.
- Convert the mebers of the MII data structure to unsigned where
appropriate. This is partly inspired by NetBSD/OpenBSD.
- According to IEEE 802.3-2002 the bits actually have to be reversed
when mapping an OUI to the MII ID registers. All PHY drivers and
miidevs where changed as necessary. Actually this now again allows to
largely share miidevs with NetBSD, which fixed this problem already
9 years ago. Consequently miidevs was synced as far as possible.
- Add MIIF_NOMANPAUSE and mii_phy_flowstatus() calls to drivers that
weren't explicitly converted to support flow control before. It's
unclear whether flow control actually works with these but typically
it should and their net behavior should be more correct with these
changes in place than without if the MAC driver sets MIIF_DOPAUSE.

header parser uses m_pullup(9) to get access to mbuf chain.
m_pullup(9) can allocate new mbuf chain and free old one if the
space left in the mbuf chain is not enough to hold requested
contiguous bytes. Previously drivers can use stale ip/tcp header
pointer if m_pullup(9) returned new mbuf chain.

hardware tag insertion/stripping. Remove conditional code that
disables these hardware features on SiS190. Also nuke RX fixup code
which is no more required on strict-alignment architectures because
SiS190 supports RX 10 bytes padding.
Now all hardware features except jumbo frame and WOL are supported.
Thanks to Masa Murayama who confirmed SiS190 also has the same
hardware features of SiS191.
I guess the only difference between SiS191 and SiS190 would be
jumbo frame support. It will be implemented in near future.
fragmentation of mbuf chain to 32 from 16 because TSO can send 64KB
sized packet which in turn requires long list of mbuf chain. Due to
lack of documentation, I'm not sure whether driver have to pull up
ethernet/IP/TCP header with options to make controller work but
driver have to parse TCP header to update pseudo TCP checksum
anyway. The controller expects pseudo TCP checksum computed by
upper stack and the checksum should follow the MS NDIS
specification to make TSO work.

is no more need to defragment mbufs. After transmitting the
multi-fragmented frame, the controller updates only the first
descriptor of multi-descriptor transmission so it's driver's
responsibility to clear OWN bits of remaining descriptor of
multi-descriptor transmission. It seems the controller behaves much
like jme(4) controllers in descriptor handling.

In theory, controller reinitialization is not needed when VLAN tag
configuration is changed, but xclin said controller was not stable
whenever toggling VLAN tag bit. To address that, sge(4)
reinitialize controller for VLAN configuration which seems to work
as expected. VLAN tag information for TX/RX descriptor and
configure bit of RxMacControl register was found by xclin.

The controller can pad 10 bytes before DMAing a received frame to
RX buffer and received bytes include the padded bytes. This padding
is very useful on strict-alignment architectures because driver
does not have to copy received frame to align IP header on 4 bytes
boundary. It also gives better RX performance on non-strict
alignment architectures. Special thanks to xclin to give me
valuable register information. Without his enthusiastic trial and
errors this wouldn't be even possible.
While I'm here tighten validity check of received frame. Controller
clears RDS_CRCOK bit when it received bad CRC frames. xclin found
that using loop back testing.

Without this change, controller can generate more than 140k

This driver was written by Alexander Pohoyda and greatly enhanced
by Nikolay Denev. I don't have these hardwares but this driver was
tested by Nikolay Denev and xclin.
Because SiS didn't release data sheet for this controller, programming
information came from Linux driver and OpenSolaris. Unlike other open
source driver for SiS190/191, sge(4) takes full advantage of TX/RX
checksum offloading and does not require additional copy operation in
RX handler.
The controller seems to have advanced offloading features like VLAN
hardware tag insertion/stripping, TCP segmentation offload(TSO) as
well as jumbo frame support but these features are not available
yet. Special thanks to xclin <xclin<> cs dot nctu dot edu dot tw>
who sent fix for receiving VLAN oversized frames.
