using miibus, since for some devices that use multiple addresses on the bus,
going through miibus may be unclear, and for devices that are not standard
MII PHYs, miibus may throw a fit, necessitating complicated interfaces to
fake the interface that it expects during probe/attach.
o) Make the mv88e61xx SMI interface in octe attach a PHY directly and fix some
mistakes in the code that resulted from trying too hard to present a nice
interface to miibus.
o) Add a PHY driver for the mv88e61xx. If attached (it is optional in kernel
compiles so the default behavior of having a dumb switch is preserved) it
will place the switch in a VLAN-tagging mode such that each physical port
has a VLAN associated with it and interfaces for the VLANs can be created to
address or bridge between them.
XXX It would be nice for this to be part of a single module including the
SMI interface, and for it to fit into a generic switch configuration
framework and for it to use DSA rather than VLANs, but this is a start
and gives some sense of the parameters of such frameworks that are not
currently present in FreeBSD. In lieu of a switch configuration
interface, per-port media status and VLAN settings are in a sysctl tree.
XXX There may be some minor nits remaining in the handling of broadcast,
multicast and unknown destination traffic. It would also be nice to go
through and replace the few remaining magic numbers with macros at some
point in the future.
XXX This has only been tested with the MV88E6161, but it should work with
minimal or no modification on related switches, so support for probing
them was included.

sysctl and counters for message ring threads (intial version). Update
watermark values, and and decrease the maximum threads to 3 (this will leave
a few CPUs for other processes)
Minor comment fix in nlge.
- Wakeup multiple threads per core using message ring watermark interrupts.
- Update message ring handler registration, use the real device station id
for registering interrupts.
- rge/nlge: update for the new message ring registration code.
- rge/nlge: use 2 message ring stations for incoming packets, this will
allow more messages to be queued.
- nlge: comment fixes, remove unused variable
- style and whitespace fixes
the miibus attached to octe interfaces.
o) Add an SMI/MDIO interface to the MV88E61XX and use it for the switch PHY on
the Lanner MR-320. An actual driver for the switch PHY will come later.
Note that for now it intercepts and fakes MII_BMSR reads to prevent the
miibus from talking to anything but the switch itself.
bus interface does that's special here now is to use a 64-bit register size.
In theory, uart(4) ought to support a regsz as well as regshft and support
64-bit registers directly.
Also use the UART class's range rather than a hand-coded 1024 for the address
range.
o) Give a virtual address for I/O ports on n64.
o) On the Portwell CAM-0100, return the right IRQ for the on-board SATA.
o) Except on bridges, only set PORTEN and MEMEN on devices that have I/O or
memory BARs respectively.
o) Disable PORTEN and MEMEN while reprogramming BARs.
o) On the Lanner MR-955, set the Tx DMA power register for the on-board Promise
SATA controller.
- XLS B0 and later revision chips have PCIe link 2 & 3 mapped to different
PIC interrupts. Update pic.h, board.h and xlr_pci.c to reflect this.
- remove debug prints in xlr_pci.c
- add more processor IDs to board.h, add function xlr_is_xls_b0()
- some style(9) and whitespace fixes
these could be made dependent on either of the octusb or octe options, but
making them standard fixes a number of option combinations that were previously
broken.
driver to try to switch interrupt handlers at setup. It's not a very
good implementation of bus_teardown_intr, though.
o) Set cache line size and latency timers for PCI devices per Linux.
o) Reset and configure the bus from scratch rather than expecting U-Boot to
do it for us. Values and configuration from Linux, U-Boot and comments
in the Cavium Simple Executive sources.
o) Do a resource assignment and bus numbering pass in the absence of a PCI
BIOS or firmware that will do it for us.
XXX This has to be the third or fourth instance of this in FreeBSD and
it would be nice to have it become part of the PCI bus driver itself,
like it is on Linux.
o) Fix interrupt mapping for and adjust bus configuration for the Lanner
MR-955, based on information provided by Lanner.
- 64 bit fixes for ifnlge.c
- Use m_nextpkt to save mbuf vaddr on 64 bit, we cannot store the
64 bit vaddr in the 40bit freeback field.
- remove unused code and unnecessary variables.
- use xlr_io_mmio macro instead of adding io base address
- rewrite GPIO related code to fixup nlge using xlr_write_reg and DELAY
- support for engg boards major num 11 and 12
- add xlr_paddr_lw() to load 32bit value from physical address, fix
inline assembly
- style fixes
- Process some tx done messages in the transmit path, to ensure that
the XLR NA tx done FIFO does not overflow.
- Add a message ring handler API to process atmost a given number of
messages from a specified bucket mask. This will be used to process
the tx done messages
- Add a callout to restart transmit in the case transmit gets blocked.
- Update enable_msgring_int() and disable_msgring_int(), remove unused
args and make static.

for FreeBSD 6.
- Add virtual address field in OperationDescriptor_t, we cannot use
MIPS_PHYS_TO_KSEG0 on physical address.
- Fixes for new message ring API
- Remove unused sys/mips/rmi/dev/sec/stats.h
- Whitespace fixes
- Move RMI MIPS extension to atomic increment word (LDADDWU) to common
header file sys/mips/rmi/rmi_mips_exts.h

unsigned int* instead of unsigned long* argument
- Provide dummy xlr_enable_kx/xlr_restore_kx for n32 and n64.
- Provide xlr_paddr_ld() instead of xlr_paddr_lw(), so that the
descriptor formats are same for 32 and 64 bit
- update nlge and rge for the changes
These changes are also needed by the security driver which will be
added later.
Do not explicitly enable interrupts in smp_init_secondary() because it
renders any spinlock protected code after that point to run with
interrupts enabled. This is because the processor is executing in the
context of idlethread whose 'md_spinlock_count' is already set to 1.
Instead just let sched_throw() re-enable interrupts when it releases
the spinlock.

The main goal of this is to generate timer interrupts only when there is
some work to do. When CPU is busy interrupts are generating at full rate
of hz + stathz to fullfill scheduler and timekeeping requirements. But
when CPU is idle, only minimum set of interrupts (down to 8 interrupts per
second per CPU now), needed to handle scheduled callouts is executed.
This allows significantly increase idle CPU sleep time, increasing effect
of static power-saving technologies. Also it should reduce host CPU load
on virtualized systems, when guest system is idle.
There is set of tunables, also available as writable sysctls, allowing to
control wanted event timer subsystem behavior:
kern.eventtimer.timer - allows to choose event timer hardware to use.
On x86 there is up to 4 different kinds of timers. Depending on whether
chosen timer is per-CPU, behavior of other options slightly differs.
kern.eventtimer.periodic - allows to choose periodic and one-shot
operation mode. In periodic mode, current timer hardware taken as the only
source of time for time events. This mode is quite alike to previous kernel
behavior. One-shot mode instead uses currently selected time counter
hardware to schedule all needed events one by one and program timer to
generate interrupt exactly in specified time. Default value depends of
chosen timer capabilities, but one-shot mode is preferred, until other is
forced by user or hardware.
kern.eventtimer.singlemul - in periodic mode specifies how much times
higher timer frequency should be, to not strictly alias hardclock() and
statclock() events. Default values are 2 and 4, but could be reduced to 1
if extra interrupts are unwanted.
kern.eventtimer.idletick - makes each CPU to receive every timer interrupt
independently of whether they busy or not. By default this options is
disabled. If chosen timer is per-CPU and runs in periodic mode, this option
has no effect - all interrupts are generating.
As soon as this patch modifies cpu_idle() on some platforms, I have also
refactored one on x86. Now it makes use of MONITOR/MWAIT instrunctions
(if supported) under high sleep/wakeup rate, as fast alternative to other
methods. It allows SMP scheduler to wake up sleeping CPUs much faster
without using IPI, significantly increasing performance on some highly
task-switching loads.
