The D_NEEDMINOR flag was introduced for drivers that do not actually
depend on storing a device unit/minor number, but require the ability to
address the cdevs by this number, which is used by clone_create().
The cpuctl(4) driver sets D_NEEDMINOR, even though it doesn't use the
clone_create() API. Remove the flag, because maybe we want to get rid of
it somewhere in the far future.
The syscons code disabled scroll lock inside sc_cnputs() if it's going
to print a system message. The code currently wants to process any TTY
output data as well, but we cannot do this, because the TTY lock is a
sleep mutex, while cnputs() picks up a spin mutex.
Disable the code for now. It solves a panic when a console message is
printed while scroll lock is enabled. One solution would be to
initialize a task structure here.

With these changes, umodem kinda works for me now. It certainly gets
past the "tip" bug that I found earlier where 115200 wasn't a valid
baud rate. This was "broken" in the mpsafetty commit, but in reality,
umodem was always broken.
anholt thinks that he added this check as part of some regression testing,
but it is failing at least some of the time. I don't want to remove it
just yet. I added a bit of debugging to help identify the issue.

stopped nor the waiting state and also no other means to check
whether the receiver is idle (see also r163774), we have no choice
than to call mii_tick(9) unconditionally even in the case of the
DC_REDUCED_MII_POLL handling as far as the RX side is concerned.
This isn't necessarily worse than checking whether RX is idle
though because unlike as with TX we're racing with the hardware,
which might receive packets any time while we poll the MII, anyway.

that there are 3 different interrupt enable bits, 2 for different
families of cards, and 1 for when MSI is used. Also apply a big
hammer backstop for cards that aren't recognized. This should fix
all of the interrupt issues at boot.
- changes in support of the VLAN filter fix to 126850
- removal of a bunch of legacy code that was cruft, if not
possibly harmful.
- removal of POLLING from this driver, with multiqueue and
MSIX it just makes no sense here.
- Fix an LRO bug that I've been working on internally, intermittent
panics under stress, the problem was releasing the RX ring lock
before the LRO flushing.
- Following the above fix I now enable LRO by default
- For performance reasons increase the default number of RX queues
to 4.
- Add AIM - "Adaptive Interrupt Moderation", a fancy way of saying
that the EITR value is dynamically changed based on the size of
packets in the last interrupt interval.
- Much goodness to try, enjoy!!
Use the much simpler cdevpriv for per-fd state and enable it. This allows
multiple opens of /dev/ipmi0 (e.g. using ipmitool while ipmievd is running
in the background).

know that this doesn't hurt any cards I've tried it with.

first driver that does the configuration dance with CFE's. There's
likely some additional configuration that's needed to get things
working completely...
Split the driver into the core functionality part (sys/dev/tsec/if_tsec.c) and
the bus attachment (sys/dev/tsec/if_tsec_ocp.c).
This lets better integrate and maintain the driver in other environments with
different attachment abstractions (there is at least one other FreeBSD port --
MPC83xx -- which uses this TSEC driver, but with different local bus model
i.e. some OF derivative). While there, clean up and fix minor cosmetics.

When I was hacking on uart(4) to make it work with the MPSAFE TTY layer,
I noticed there was a difference between the way syscons and uart work
with respect to consoles:
- The uart(4) driver sets cn_name to the corresponding ttyu%r node,
which means init(8) (which opens /dev/console) will have its output
redirected to /dev/ttyu%r. After /etc/rc is done, it can spawn a getty
on that device node as well.
- Syscons used a little different approach. Apart from the /dev/ttyv%r
nodes, it creates a /dev/consolectl node. This device node is used by
moused and others to deliver their data, but for some reason it also
acts as a TTY, which shares its stat structure with ttyv0. This device
node is used as a console (run conscontrol).
There are a couple advantages of this approach:
- Because we use two different TTY's to represent the 0th syscons
window, we allocate two sets of TTY buffers. Even if you don't use
/dev/consolectl after the system has booted (systems that don't run
moused), it seems the buffers are still allocated.
- We have to apply an evil hack to redirect input to /dev/consolectl.
Because each window (stat) is associated not associated with one TTY,
syscons solves this by redirecting all input to closed TTY's to
consolectl.
This means that opening /dev/ttyv0 while in single user mode will
probably cause strange things to happen with respect to keyboard input
redirection.
The first patch that I discussed with philip@ turned consolectl into a
symlink to ttyv0, but this was not a good idea, because in theory we
would want consolectl to be a simple device node, which contains all the
`privileged' ioctl()'s. Apart from that, it didn't work, because each
time /dev/ttyv0 got revoked, moused also lost its descriptor to deliver
input, which meant you had to plug out/in your mouse to make it work
again. This version just leaves the consolectl device the way it is. It
can still be used to write output to ttyv0, but it can no longer receive
any input.
In my opinion this patch is not a complete solution, but it's already a
step in the good direction. It would allow us to turn consolectl into a
special (non-TTY) device node in the far future. It shaves off 15 KB of
wasted TTY buffer space.

When I changed syscons(4) to work with the MPSAFE TTY code, I just
locked all device nodes down using the compatibility feature that allows
you to override the TTY's lock (Giant in this case). Upon closer
inspection, it seems sysmouse(4) only has two internal variables that
need locking: mouse_level and mouse_status.
I haven't done any performance benchmarks on this, though I think it
won't have any dramatic improvements on the system. It is good to get
rid of Giant here, because the third argument of tty_alloc() has only
been added to ease migration to MPSAFE TTY. It should not be used when
not needed.
While there, remove SC_MOUSE, which is a leftover from the MPSAFE TTY
import.
number in the irq register. While there are other issues with these
variants, avoiding writing to it helps interrupt generation on at
least one card, and doesn't hurt on the others. Flag ISA attachment
as needing INT_NO_REG written, and don't update the PC Card attachment
(which will have the effect of not touching it for PC Cards).
