controller. Due to lack of documentation, this driver is based on the
code from sk(4) and Marvell's myk(4) driver for FreeBSD. I've also
adopted the OpenBSD interface name, msk(4) in order to reduce naming
differences between BSDs.
The msk(4) driver supports the following Gigabit Ethernet adapters.
o SysKonnect SK-9Sxx Gigabit Ethernet
o SysKonnect SK-9Exx Gigabit Ethernet
o Marvell Yukon 88E8021CU Gigabit Ethernet
o Marvell Yukon 88E8021 SX/LX Gigabit Ethernet
o Marvell Yukon 88E8022CU Gigabit Ethernet
o Marvell Yukon 88E8022 SX/LX Gigabit Ethernet
o Marvell Yukon 88E8061CU Gigabit Ethernet
o Marvell Yukon 88E8061 SX/LX Gigabit Ethernet
o Marvell Yukon 88E8062CU Gigabit Ethernet
o Marvell Yukon 88E8062 SX/LX Gigabit Ethernet
o Marvell Yukon 88E8035 Gigabit Ethernet
o Marvell Yukon 88E8036 Gigabit Ethernet
o Marvell Yukon 88E8038 Gigabit Ethernet
o Marvell Yukon 88E8050 Gigabit Ethernet
o Marvell Yukon 88E8052 Gigabit Ethernet
o Marvell Yukon 88E8053 Gigabit Ethernet
o Marvell Yukon 88E8055 Gigabit Ethernet
o Marvell Yukon 88E8056 Gigabit Ethernet
o D-Link 550SX Gigabit Ethernet
o D-Link 560T Gigabit Ethernet
Unlike OpenBSD/NetBSD msk(4), the msk(4) driver supports all hardware
features including TCP/UDP checksum offload for transmit, MSI, TCP
segmentation offload(TSO), hardware VLAN tag stripping/insertion,
and jumbo frames(up to 9022 bytes). The only unsupported hardware
feature except RLMT is Rx checksum offload which I don't know how to
make it work reliably.
Known Issues:
It seems msk(4) does not work on the second port of dual port NIC.
(The first port works without problems.)
Thanks to Marvell for releasing the BSD licensed myk(4) driver and
thanks to all users helped fixing bugs.

Tested on: i386, amd64
subtypes of HT capabilities.
- Add constants for the MSI mapping window HT PCI capability.
- On i386 and amd64, enable the MSI mapping window on any HT bridges we
encounter and report any non-standard mapping window addresses.
pcib_alloc_msix() methods instead of using the method from the generic
PCI-PCI bridge driver as the PCI-PCI methods will be gaining some PCI-PCI
specific logic soon.
- Use the appropriate register writing method when reseting the chip
- Program the descriptor DMA engine correctly.
- More reliably detect certain chips and their features.
Also add some low-level debugging tools to help future work on this driver.

- Correct RX packet drop counter for BCM5705+. This register is read/clear
and it wraps very quickly under heavy packet drops because only the lower
ten bits are valid according to the documentation. However, it seems few
more bits are actually valid and the rest bits are always zeros[1].
Therefore, we don't mask them off here. To get accurate packet drop count,
we need to check the register from bge_rxeof(). It is commented out for now,
not to penalize normal operation. Actual performance impact should be
measured later.
- Correct integer casting from u_long to uint32_t. Casting is not really
needed for all supported platforms but we better do this correctly[2].

o Remove unused static global variable e1000phy_debug.
o Take advantage of mii_phy_dev_probe().
o Use MII_ANEGTICKS/MII_ANEGTICKS_GIGE instead of magic number 5.
o Add IFM_NONE as e1000phy(4) supports it without issues.
o Nuke magic PHY programming sequence in PHY reset and follow correct
reset sequence. [1]
o Make manual media selection work for all supported media types.
o Don't set MIIF_NOISOLATE so e1000phy(4) can be used in
configurations with multiple PHYs.
o In 1000baseT, when setting the link manually, one side must be the
master and the other the slave. If LINK0 is set, program the PHY
to be a master, otherwise it's a slave.
o When we lost a link, reset mii_ticks immediately so it correctly
check number of seconds elapsed in autonegotiation phase.
o Announce link loss right after it happens.
o After kicking autonegotiation, report PHY status instead of
returning immediatly.
o When link state check is in progress, check auto negotiation
completion bit only when auto negotiation is enbaled.
o When PHY is resolved to a master, show it with IFM_FLAG2.
Special thanks to marius who fixed several nits in original patch.
In half-duplex mode, nfe(4) fails to send packets. I think it's a bug
in nfe(4) as the same PHY works without problems on msk(4).

Either they're there early and the ispfw sets have
registered themselves, or they're not.
The module dependency stuff isn't quite what we want
anyway. If the user doesn't want the load placed on
system memory by loading the firmware, they don't
specify it to be loaded (either by being linked in
or via being a module to be loaded and then hooked
in with firmware(9)). It doesn't then make sense to
then override what they want by pulling it in anyway.
This might be able to work if we were able to pull in
just exactly what we needed for the card we have- but
that's an optimization left for the future.
hme_watchdog() in order to avoid races accessing if_timer.

While at it relax the watchdog a bit by reloading it in gem_tint()

off of 24XX to be gated off of 2K login support. Convert some
isp_prt calls to xpt_print calls.
Add a note that suggests a cleanup.
Note: This patch was derived based on looking at the pvrxxx/pvr250
ports' Makefiles only, and may be incomplete. It is not derived from
anything I saw from Hauppage.
