adapter to work around bugs in TSO handling at this speed.
em_init_locked is called during first boot of the adapter and will
see that link_speed is unitialized, effectively turning off tso for
all cards at all speeds, which I believe was *not* the intent.
Move the handling of TSO deactivation to the link handler where we can
more effectively make the decision about what to do. In addition,
completely purge the TSO capabilities instead of disabling just CSUM_TSO.

- At Intel it is believed that most of their products support "only"
40 DMA segments so lower {EM,IGB}_MAX_SCATTER accordingly. Actually,
40 is more than plenty to handle full size TSO packets so it doesn't
make sense to further distinguish between MAC variants that really
can do 64 DMA segments. Moreover, capping at 40 DMA segments limits
the stack usage of {em,igb}_xmit() that - given the rare use of more
than these - previously hardly was justifiable, while still being
sufficient to avoid the problems seen with em(4) and EM_MAX_SCATTER
set to 32.
- In igb(4), pass the actually supported TSO parameters up the stack.
Previously, the defaults set in if_attach_internal() were applied,
i. e. a maximum of 35 TSO segments, which made supporting more than
these in the driver pointless. However, this might explain why no
problems were seen with IGB_MAX_SCATTER at 64.
- In em(4), take the 5 m_pullup(9) invocations performed by em_xmit()
in the TSO case into account when reporting TSO parameters upwards.
In the worst case, each of these calls will add another mbuf and,
thus, the requirement for an additional DMA segment. So for best
performance, it doesn't make sense to advertize a maximum of TSO
segments that typically will require defragmentation in em_xmit().
Again, this leaves enough room to handle full size TSO packets.
- Drop TSO macros from if_lem.h given that corresponding MACS don't
support TSO in the first place.

Always enqueue tx work to be done in em_mq_start, if unable to acquire

is always enqueued. (stolen from igb)

Add 2 new DDB functions, one to display the queue(s) and their settings and

In the multiqueue configuration, bump RXD and TXD ring size to max for the
adapter (4096). Setup an RDTR of 64 and an RADV of 128 in multiqueue configuration
to cut down on the number of interrupts. RADV was arbitrarily set to 2x RDTR
and can be adjusted as needed.
Cleanup the display in top a bit to make it clearer where the taskqueue threads
are running and what they should be doing.
Ensure that both queues are processed by em_local_timer() by writing them both
to the IMS register to generate soft interrupts.
Ensure that an soft interrupt is generated when em_msix_link() is run so that
any races between assertion of the link/status interrupt and a rx/tx interrupt
are handled.

applying them to em(4).
Rely on iterations through the local timer, and the tx queue state to
determine if an actual hang has occurred. Any time a descriptor is used
(packet sent), the tx queue is flagged as busy. Then when txeof runs, it
either clears the flag when all is clean, or resets it to 1 if ANY are
cleaned, if nothing is cleaned it increments the flag.
Local timer simply checks to see if busy ever reaches MAX (10, which
is compile time configurable), and then sets it as HUNG, at that point
there is one more timer cycle in which to have any cleans, if not a
watchdog reset will occur.

- Wrong or missing "access" specifier. The "access" specifier
sometimes included the SYSCTL type, which it should not, except for
procedural SYSCTL nodes.
- Logical OR where binary OR was expected.
- Properly assert the "access" argument passed to all SYSCTL macros,
using the CTASSERT macro. This applies to both static- and dynamically
created SYSCTLs.
- Properly assert the the data type for both static and dynamic
SYSCTLs. In the case of static SYSCTLs we only assert that the data
pointed to by the SYSCTL data pointer has the correct size, hence
there is no easy way to assert types in the C language outside a
C-function.
- Rewrote some code which doesn't pass a constant "access" specifier

Mostly bugfixes or features developed in the past 6 months,
so this is a 10.1 candidate.
Basically no user API changes (some bugfixes in sys/net/netmap_user.h).
In detail:
1. netmap support for virtio-net, including in netmap mode.
Under bhyve and with a netmap backend [2] we reach over 1Mpps
with standard APIs (e.g. libpcap), and 5-8 Mpps in netmap mode.
2. (kernel) add support for multiple memory allocators, so we can
better partition physical and virtual interfaces giving access
to separate users. The most visible effect is one additional
argument to the various kernel functions to compute buffer
addresses. All netmap-supported drivers are affected, but changes
are mechanical and trivial
3. (kernel) simplify the prototype for *txsync() and *rxsync()
driver methods. All netmap drivers affected, changes mostly mechanical.
4. add support for netmap-monitor ports. Think of it as a mirroring
port on a physical switch: a netmap monitor port replicates traffic
present on the main port. Restrictions apply. Drive carefully.
5. if_lem.c: support for various paravirtualization features,
experimental and disabled by default.
Most of these are described in our ANCS'13 paper [1].
Paravirtualized support in netmap mode is new, and beats the
numbers in the paper by a large factor (under qemu-kvm,
we measured gues-host throughput up to 10-12 Mpps).
A lot of refactoring and additional documentation in the files
in sys/dev/netmap, but apart from #2 and #3 above, almost nothing
of this stuff is visible to other kernel parts.
Example programs in tools/tools/netmap have been updated with bugfixes
and to support more of the existing features.
This is meant to go into 10.1 so we plan an MFC before the Aug.22 deadline.
A lot of this code has been contributed by my colleagues at UNIPI,
including Giuseppe Lettieri, Vincenzo Maffione, Stefano Garzarella.

there is an environment variable which shall initialize the SYSCTL
during early boot. This works for all SYSCTL types both statically and
dynamically created ones, except for the SYSCTL NODE type and SYSCTLs
which belong to VNETs. A new flag, CTLFLAG_NOFETCH, has been added to
be used in the case a tunable sysctl has a custom initialisation
function allowing the sysctl to still be marked as a tunable. The
kernel SYSCTL API is mostly the same, with a few exceptions for some
special operations like iterating childrens of a static/extern SYSCTL
node. This operation should probably be made into a factored out
common macro, hence some device drivers use this. The reason for
changing the SYSCTL API was the need for a SYSCTL parent OID pointer
and not only the SYSCTL parent OID list pointer in order to quickly
generate the sysctl path. The motivation behind this patch is to avoid
parameter loading cludges inside the OFED driver subsystem. Instead of
adding special code to the OFED driver subsystem to post-load tunables
into dynamically created sysctls, we generalize this in the kernel.
Other changes:
- Corrected a possibly incorrect sysctl name from "hw.cbb.intr_mask"
to "hw.pcic.intr_mask".
- Removed redundant TUNABLE statements throughout the kernel.
- Some minor code rewrites in connection to removing not needed
TUNABLE statements.
- Added a missing SYSCTL_DECL().
- Wrapped two very long lines.
- Avoid malloc()/free() inside sysctl string handling, in case it is
called to initialize a sysctl from a tunable, hence malloc()/free() is
not ready when sysctls from the sysctl dataset are registered.
- Bumped FreeBSD version to indicate SYSCTL API change.
