[bwn] [bhnd] initial support for using bhnd for if_bwn devices.
This is an initial work in progress to use the replacement bhnd
bus code for devices which support it.
* Add manpage updates for bhnd, bhndb, siba
* Add kernel options for bhnd, bhndbus, etc
* Add initial support in if_bwn_pci / if_bwn_mac for using bhnd
as the bus transport for suppoted NICs
* if_bwn_pci will eventually be the PCI bus glue to interface to bwn,
which will use the right backend bus to attach to, versus direct
nexus/bhnd attachments (as found in embedded broadcom devices.)
The PCI glue defaults to probing at a lower level than the bwn glue,
so bwn should still attach as per normal without a boot time tunable set.
It's also not fully fleshed out - the bwn probe/attach code needs to be
broken out into platform and bus specific things (just like ath, ath_pci,
ath_ahb) before we can shift the driver over to using this.
Tested:
* BCM4311, STA mode
* BCM4312, STA mode

A common interconnect connects all of the Silicon Backplane's functional
|
2016-06-08 08:50:35 +00:00
|
|
|
blocks.
|
|
|
|
|
These functional blocks, known as cores, use the Open Core Protocol
|
2010-01-15 19:34:40 +00:00
|
|
|
(OCP) interface to communicate with agents attached to the Silicon
|
|
|
|
|
Backplane.
|
|
|
|
|
.Pp
|
|
|
|
|
Each core can have an initiator agent that passes read and write
|
|
|
|
|
requests onto the system backplane and a target agent that returns
|
|
|
|
|
responses to those requests.
|
|
|
|
|
Not all cores contain both an initiator and a target agent.
|
|
|
|
|
Initiator agents are present in cores that contain
|
|
|
|
|
host interfaces (PCI, PCMCIA), embedded processors (MIPS),
|
|
|
|
|
or DMA processors associated with communications cores.
