- Clean up the access to our ifnet structure by caching a pointer
to it instead of always digging through our softc structure.

exactly as I did (should have checked there first I guess) except my
macro for TAILQ_INSERT_BEFORE took an unneeded arg. We now match 4.4Lite2.

- fill in and use ifp->if_softc
- use if_bpf rather than private cookie variables
- change bpf interface to take advantage of this
- call ether_ifattach() directly from Ethernet drivers
- delete kludge in if_attach() that did this indirectly
and rmx_recvpipe. This has no demonstrable effect on performance.
(ttcp reports about 44 Mbit/s for all the buffer sizes I tried between
16384 and 65536.)
pmap_activate since it's not used anymore. Changed cpu_fork so that
it uses one line of inline assembly rather than calling mvesp() to
get the current stack pointer. Removed mvesp() since it is no longer
being used.
fixes for previous version of new pipes from Bruce Evans. This
new version:
Supports more properly the semantics of select (BDE).
Supports "OLD_PIPE" correctly (kern_descrip.c, BDE).
Eliminates incorrect EPIPE returns (bash 'pipe broken' messages.)
Much faster yet, currently tuned relatively conservatively -- but now
gives approx 50% more perf than the new pipes code did originally.
(That was about 50% more perf than the original BSD pipe code.)
Known bugs outstanding:
No support for async io (SIGIO). Will be included soon.
Next to do:
Merge support for FIFOs.

for me, but has gotten a bit flakey in bidirectional parallel port mode.
Fix a bug in bidirectional parallel port transfers, more work is still
needed here (testers welcome).
Minor cleanup.
drives require ST_Q_SNS_HLP, they also wrongly accept a blocksize of
1024 in the first place (for a QIC-150 cartridge), but complain later
about it. The hack is to only probe for 512 for them.
Reorder the entries in st_decide_mode() so that QIC >= 525 is properly
accepted as variable blocksize.
vs unidirectional transfer modes. The kernel handles hardware, user mode
programs shouldn't get in the way.
This cleans up some really ugly grots that I hated too. :-)

that don't announce support for command queues.
SCSI_NCR_DFLT_TAGS can be specified in the kernel config file
and sets the default number of tags per disk drive.
A value of 0 means "no tags".
Minor correction in debug messages: Values from the msg_in
buffer were being printed in the msg_out trace message ...
The code outputs the dc then calls the device specific externalize
routines to fill in the dc_data area. The old code assumed that dc_data
started one byte from the end of the dc, but with the compiler optimizing
alignment and padding, this isn't always the case. Do an explicit
&(dc.dc_data) - &dc. This fixes lsdev -c which must have been broken
for some time.
- Call eisa_registerdev as soon as we have a device match. This allows the
"eisa_add_*" routines to tweak kdc_datalen as the kdc grows and shrinks.

- externalize the linked lists that hold our ioaddrs and maddrs.
caused by a different reason):
. #ifndef __FreeBSD__ around check for negative size, FreeBSD size_t is
unsigned
. Disable mirror/parity if interleave size is 0 (i.e., serial concatenation).
when a connection enters the ESTBLS state using T/TCP, then window
scaling wasn't properly handled. The fix is twofold.
1) When the 3WHS completes, make sure that we update our window
scaling state variables.
2) When setting the `virtual advertized window', then make sure
that we do not try to offer a window that is larger than the maximum
window without scaling (TCP_MAXWIN).

(1) The reads are always done from the first n/2 disks.
(2) Each write is done twice, to the "data" disk (in the first half) and
the "mirror" disk (in the second half).
ccdbuffer() now takes an extra argument (struct ccdbuf **) and stores
the pointer to ccdbuf in there. In case of a mirrored write, it
allocates and stores two pointers. The "residual" is also doubled
for mirrored writes so that ccdiodone() can correctly tell when all
the writes are done.

Keep a 1-in-16 smoothed average of the length of each tick. If the
CPU speed is correctly diagnosed, this should give experienced users
enough information to figure out a more suitable value for `tick'.
