Pyun YongHyeon 7c01ae3bd4 Not all VIA Rhine chips support 256 register space. So touching
VR_STICKHW register would result in unexpected results on these
hardwares. wpaul said the following for the issue.

  The vr_attach() routine unconditionally does this for all supported
  chips:

	/*
	 * Windows may put the chip in suspend mode when it
	 * shuts down. Be sure to kick it in the head to wake it
	 * up again.
	 */
	VR_CLRBIT(sc, VR_STICKHW, (VR_STICKHW_DS0|VR_STICKHW_DS1));

  The problem is, the VR_STICKHW register is not valid on all Rhine
  devices. The VT86C100A chip, which is present on the D-Link DFE-530TX
  boards, doesn't support power management, and its register space is
  only 128 bytes wide. The VR_STICKHW register offset falls outside this
  range. This may go unnoticed in most scenarios, but if you happen to have
  another PCI device in your system which is assigned the register
  space immediately after that of the Rhine, the vr(4) driver will
  incorrectly stomp it. In my case, the BIOS on my test board decided
  to put the register space for my PRO/100 ethernet board right next
  to the Rhine, and the Rhine driver ended up clobbering the IMR register
  of the PRO/100 device. (Long story short: the board kept locking up on
  boot. Took me the better part of the morning suss out why.)

  The strictly correct thing to do would be to check the PCI config space
  to make sure the device supports the power management capability and only
  write to the VR_STICKHW register if it does.

Instead of inspecting chip revision numbers for the availability of
VR_STICKHW register, check the existence of power management capability
of the hardware as wpaul suggested.

This is the top level of the FreeBSD source directory.  This file
was last revised on:
$FreeBSD$

For copyright information, please see the file COPYRIGHT in this
directory (additional copyright information also exists for some
sources in this tree - please see the specific source directories for
more information).

The Makefile in this directory supports a number of targets for
building components (or all) of the FreeBSD source tree, the most
commonly used one being ``world'', which rebuilds and installs
everything in the FreeBSD system from the source tree except the
kernel, the kernel-modules and the contents of /etc.  The ``world''
target should only be used in cases where the source tree has not
changed from the currently running version.  See:
http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/makeworld.html
for more information, including setting make(1) variables.

The ``buildkernel'' and ``installkernel'' targets build and install
the kernel and the modules (see below).  Please see the top of
the Makefile in this directory for more information on the
standard build targets and compile-time flags.

Building a kernel is a somewhat more involved process, documentation
for which can be found at:
   http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/kernelconfig.html
And in the config(8) man page.
Note: If you want to build and install the kernel with the
``buildkernel'' and ``installkernel'' targets, you might need to build
world before.  More information is available in the handbook.

The sample kernel configuration files reside in the sys/<arch>/conf
sub-directory (assuming that you've installed the kernel sources), the
file named GENERIC being the one used to build your initial installation
kernel.  The file NOTES contains entries and documentation for all possible
devices, not just those commonly used.  It is the successor of the ancient
LINT file, but in contrast to LINT, it is not buildable as a kernel but a
pure reference and documentation file.
