ATM Tx/Rx checksum offload is supported but TSO and jumbo frame is
not yet supported. Because these newer controllers use different
descriptor formats, a flag RL_FLAG_DESCV2 flag was introduced to
handle that case in Tx/Rx handler. Also newer controllers seems to
require to not touch 'enable Tx/Rx bit' in RL_CPLUS_CMD register
so don't blindly try to set that bits.
Note, it seems that there is still power-saving related issue where
driver fails to attach PHY. Rebooting seems to fix that issue but
number of required reboots varys.
Many thanks to users that helped during developement. I really
appreciate their patient and test/feedbacks.
a dedicated flag that represents controller capabilities/events.
This will simplify many part of code that requires different
workaround for each controller revisions and will enhance

While I'm here move PHY wakeup code up before mii_phy_probe() which
seems to help to wake PHY in some cases.
received frame under certain conditions. wpaul said the length
0xfff0 is special meaning that indicates hardware is in the
process of copying a packet into host memory. But it seems
there are other cases that hardware is busy or stuck in bad
situation even if the received frame length is not 0xfff0.
To work-around this condition, add a check that verifys that
recevied frame length is in valid range. If received length is out
of range reinitialize hardware to recover from stuck condition.

There are ongoing disputes as to whether we want to switch to directly using
UMA flags M_WAITOK/M_NOWAIT for mbuf(9) allocation.
- Take advantage of m_collapse(9).
- Sync with other NIC drivers and prepend a TX mbuf if the first attempt
to load it fails with an error other than EFBIG and stop trying instead
of freeing it and keeping on trying to enqueue more mbufs. Also ensure
the driver queue isn't empty before trying to enqueue mbufs in order to
reduce locking operations.

free function controlable, instead of passing the KVA of the buffer
storage as the first argument.
Fix all conventional users of the API to pass the KVA of the buffer
as the first argument, to make this a no-op commit.
Likely break the only non-convetional user of the API, after informing
the relevant committer.
Update the mbuf(9) manual page, which was already out of sync on
this point.
Bump __FreeBSD_version to 800016 as there is no way to tell how
many arguments a CPP macro needs any other way.
This paves the way for giving sendfile(9) a way to wait for the
passed storage to have been accessed before returning.
This does not affect the memory layout or size of mbufs.

o Increased number of Rx/Tx descriptors to 256 for 8169 GigEs
because it's hard to push the hardware to the limit with default
64 descriptors.
TSO requires large number of Tx descriptors to pass a full sized
TCP segment(65535 bytes IP packet) to hardware. Previously it
consumed 32 Tx descriptors, assuming MCLBYTES DMA segment size,
to send the TCP segment which means re(4) couldn't queue more
than two full sized IP packets.
For 8139C+ it still uses 64 Rx/Tx descriptors due to its hardware
limitations. With this changes there are (very) small waste of
memory for 8139C+ users but I don't think it would affect 8139C+
users for most cases.
o Various bus_dma(9) fixes.
- The hardware supports DAC so allow 64bit DMA operations.
- Removed BUS_DMA_ALLOC_NOW flag.
- Increased DMA segment size to 4096 from MCLBYTES because TSO
consumes too many descriptors with MCLBYTES DMA segment size.
- Tx/Rx side bus_dmamap_load_mbuf_sg(9) support. With these
changes the code is more readable than previous one and got a
(slightly) better performance as it doesn't need to pass/
decode arguments to/from callback function.
- Removed unnecessary callback function re_dmamap_desc() and
nuked rl_dmaload_arg structure which was used in the callback.
- Additional protection for DMA map load failure. In case of
failure reuse current map instead of returning a bogus DMA
map.
- Deferred DMA map unloading/sync operation for maximum
performance until we really need to load new DMA map. If we
happen to reuse current map(e.g. input error) there is no need
to sync/unload/load again.
- The number of allowable Tx DMA segments for a mbuf chains are
now 32 instead of magic nseg value. If the number of available
Tx descriptors are short enough to send highly fragmented mbuf
chains an optimized re_defrag() is called to collapse mbuf
chains which is supposed to be much faster than m_defrag(9).
re_defrag() was borrowed from ath(4).
- Separated Rx/Tx DMA tag from a common DMA tag such that Rx DMA
tag correctly uses DMA maps that were created with DMA alignment
restriction(8bytes alignments). Tx DMA tag does not have such
alignment limitation.
- Added additional sanity checks for DMA ring map load failure.
- Added additional spare Rx DMA map for graceful handling of Rx
DMA map load failure.
- Fixed misused bus_dmamap_sync(9) and added missing
bus_dmamap_sync(9) in re_encap()/re_txeof()/re_rxeof().
o Enabled TSO again as re(4) have reasonable number of Tx
descriptors.
o Don't touch DMA address of a Tx descriptor in re_txeof(). It's
not needed.
o Fix incorrect update of if_ierrors counter. For Rx buffer
shortage it should update if_qdrops as the buffer is reused.
o Added checks for unsupported H/W revisions and return ENXIO for
these hardwares. This is required to remove resource allocation
code in re_probe as other drivers do in device probe routine.
o Modified descriptor index manipulation macros as it's now possible
to have different number of descriptors for Rx/Tx.
o In re_start, to save a lock operation, use IFQ_DRV_IS_EMPTY before
trying to invoke IFQ_DRV_DEQUEUE. Also don't blindly call re_encap
since we already know the number of available Tx descriptors in
advance.
o Removed RL_TX_DESC_THLD which was used to reserve RL_TX_DESC_THLD
descriptors in Tx path. There is no such a limitation mentioned in
8139C+/8169/8110/8168/8101/8111 datasheet and it seems to work ok
without reserving RL_TX_DESC_THLD descriptors.
o Fix a comment for RL_GTXSTART. The register is 8bits register.
o Added comments for 8169/8139C+ hardware restrictions on descriptors.
o Removed forward declaration for "struct rl_softc", it's not needed.
o Added a new structure rl_txdesc for Tx descriptor managements and
a structure rl_rxdesc for Rx descriptor managements.
o Removed unused member variable rl_intlock in driver softc. There are
still several unused member variables which are supposed to be used
to access hardware statistics counters. But it seems that accessing
hardware counters were not implemented yet.

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.

significantly simplifies error-handling in the socket layer, eliminated
quite a bit of unwinding of locking in error cases.

Ever since switching to adaptive polling re(4) occasionally spews
watchdog timeouts on systems with MSI capability. This change is
minimal one for supporting MSI and re(4) also needs MSIX support
for RTL8111C in future. Because softc structure of re(4) is shared
with rl(4), rl(4) was touched to use the modified softc.

This adds a function to agp.c to set the aperture resource ID if it's
not the usual AGP_APBASE. Previously, agp.c had been assuming
AGP_APBASE, which resulted in incorrect agp_info, and contortions by
agp_i810.c to work around it.
This also adds functions to agp.c for default AGP_GET_APERTURE() and
AGP_SET_APERTURE(), which return the aperture resource size and disallow
aperture size changes. Moving to these for our AGP drivers will likely
result in stability improvements. This should fix 855-class aperture
size detection.
Additionally, refuse to attach agp_i810 when some RAM is above 4GB and
the GART can't reference memory that high. This should be very rare.
The correct solution would be bus_dma conversion for agp, which is
beyond the scope of this change. Other AGP drivers could likely use
this change as well.
G33/Q35/Q33 AGP support is also included, but disconnected by default
due to lack of testing.

would be 93C46(1Kbit) or 93C56(2Kbit). One of differences between them
is number of address lines required to access the EEPROM. For example,
93C56 EEPROM needs 8 address lines to read/write data. If 93C56
recevied premature end of required number of serial clock(CLK) to set
OP code/address of EEPROM, the result would be unexpected behavior.
Previously it tried to detect 93C46, which requires 6 address lines,
and then assumed it would be 93C56 if read data was not expected
value. However, this approach didn't work in some models/situations
as 93C56 requries 8 address lines to access its data. In order to fix
it, change EEPROM probing order such that 93C56 is detected reliably.
While I'm here change hard-coded address line numbers with defined
constant to enhance readability.
