also for finding a one character bug that kept TSO from working.
Sometimes with direct attach cables a failure can occur in init,
the old method of calling detach was broken, there is no way to
return an error to the system from init, so I have changed it to
return failure thru the ioctl.
And, have fixed the ALTQ code changes of Max Laier, sorry Max :)
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.

Because of how breadn -> bufstrategy -> g_vfs_strategy are currently
implemented, bread on devvp always expects DEV_BSIZE block size.
Thus, devvp bo_bsize must always be DEV_BSIZE irrespective of media
properties or filesystem implementation details.

Rather than remove it for all architectures (which was a botch in
r205845), remove it only for arm and mips until that can be sorted out.

to support various storage boxes which really aren't active-active.
We only write the label on the *first* provider. For all other providers
we just "add" the disk. This also allows for an "add" verb.
A usage implication is that you should specificy the currently active
storage path as the first provider.
Note that this does not add RDAC-like functionality, but better allows for
autovolumefailover configurations (additional checkins elsewhere will support
this).

o Don't build vpo and syscons on mips or arm either
o Add a section for mips and arm breakages, and document why.
This is easier than opting in on all the other architectures:
# no BUS_SPACE_UNSPECIFIED: bce, bwi, bwn, mfi, mpt, siba_bwn
# No barrier instruction support (specific to this driver): sym
# no uart_cpu_$MACHINE_ARCH: uart
(mips has, by inspection, the same issues as arm, so ditto for it)

This patch has two fixes for potential kernel panics (one wrong
index, one access to the wrong lock) and two fixes to wrong logic
in a conditional. The potential panics are also on stable/8,
so I am going to MFC the fix quickly.

A nice thing about POSIX 2008 is that it finally standardizes a way to
obtain file access/modification/change times in sub-second precision,
namely using struct timespec, which we already have for a very long
time. Unfortunately POSIX uses different names.
This commit adds compatibility macros, so existing code should still
build properly. Also change all source code in the kernel to work
without any of the compatibility macros. This makes it all a less
ambiguous.
I am also renaming st_birthtime to st_birthtim, even though it was a
local extension anyway. It seems Cygwin also has a st_birthtim.
o Switch to ITANIUM2 has the cpu. This has absolutely no effect
on the code, but makes for a better example.
o Drop COMPAT_FREEBSD6. We're tier 2, so you're supposed to run
8-stable or newer.
o Add PREEMPTION. It works now.
o Remove HWPMC_HOOKS. We don't have support for hwpmc yet.
o Add a bunch of new devices: atapist, hptiop, amr, ips, twa, igb,
ixgbe, ae, age, alc, ale, bce, bfe, et, jme, msk, nge, sk, ste,
stge, tx, vge, axe, rue, udav, fwip, and all USB serial.
o Remove "legacy" devices: le, vx, dc, pcn, rl, sis.

- add some new hardware support for 82599
- Big change to interrupt architecture, it now
uses a queue which contains an RX/TX pair as
the recipient of the interrupt. This will reduce
overall system interrupts/msix usage.
- Improved RX mbuf handling: the old get_buf routine
is no longer synchronized with rxeof, this allows
the elimination of packet discards due to mbuf
allocation failure.
- Much simplified and improved AIM code, it now
happens in the queue interrupt context and takes
into account both the traffic on the RX AND TX
side.
- variety of small tweaks, like ring size, that have
been seen as performance improvements.
- Thanks to those that provided feedback or suggested
changes, I hope I've caught all of them.
to ia64_enable_intr(). This reduces confusion with intr_disable() and
intr_restore().
Have configure_final() call ia64_finalize_intr() instead of enable_intr()
in preparation of adding support for binding interrupts to all CPUs.
on debug output. Add a new platform function requirement to allow
for printing based upon the ITL nexus instead of the isp unit plus
channel, target and lun. This allows some printouts and error messages
from the core code to appear in the same format as the platform's
subsystem (in FreeBSD's case, CAM path).
