sis_ioctl() was called, so one had to use ifconfig each time the cable got
plugged in to be able to use the connection.
Do it a better way now, add a "in_tick" field in the softc structure,
call timeout() in sis_tick() and don't call it in sis_init() if in_tick is
non-zero.

forced to do slightly bogus power state manipulation. However, this
is one of those features that is preventing further progress, so mark
them as BURN_BIRDGES like I did for the drivers in sys/dev/...
This, like the other change, are a no-op unless you have BURN_BRIDGES
in your kernel.
Add two new arguments to bus_dma_tag_create(): lockfunc and lockfuncarg.
Lockfunc allows a driver to provide a function for managing its locking
semantics while using busdma. At the moment, this is used for the
asynchronous busdma_swi and callback mechanism. Two lockfunc implementations
are provided: busdma_lock_mutex() performs standard mutex operations on the
mutex that is specified from lockfuncarg. dftl_lock() is a panic
implementation and is defaulted to when NULL, NULL are passed to
bus_dma_tag_create(). The only time that NULL, NULL should ever be used is
when the driver ensures that bus_dmamap_load() will not be deferred.
Drivers that do not provide their own locking can pass
busdma_lock_mutex,&Giant args in order to preserve the former behaviour.
sparc64 and powerpc do not provide real busdma_swi functions, so this is
largely a noop on those platforms. The busdma_swi on is64 is not properly
locked yet, so warnings will be emitted on this platform when busdma
callback deferrals happen.
If anyone gets panics or warnings from dflt_lock() being called, please
let me know right away.

if attach succeeded. device_is_alive just tells us that probe
succeeded. Since we were using it to do things like detach net
interfaces, this caused problems when there were errors in the attach
routine.
Symptoms of problem reported by: martin blapp
- Unconditionally call *_stop() if device is in the tree. This is to
prevent callouts from happening after the device is gone. Checks for
bus_child_present() should be added in the future to keep from touching
potentially non-existent hardware in *_detach(). Found by iedowse@.
- Always check for and free miibus children, even if the device is not in
the tree since some failure cases could have gotten here.
- Call ether_ifdetach() in the irq setup failure case
- ti(4), xl(4): move ifmedia_init() calls to the beginning of attach so
that ifmedia_removeall() can be unconditionally called on detach. There
is no way to detect whether ifmedia has been initialized without using
a separate variable (as tl(4) does).
- Add comments to indicate assumptions of code path
network layer (ether).
- Don't abuse module names to facilitate ifconfig module loading;
such abuse isn't really needed. (And if we do need type information
associated with a module then we should make it explicit and not
use hacks.)
- Remove locking of the softc in the attach method, instead depending on
bus_setup_intr being at the end of attach (delaying interrupt enable until
after ether_ifattach is called)
- Call *_detach directly in the error case of attach, depending on checking
in detach to only free resources that were allocated. This puts all
resource freeing in one place, avoiding thinkos that lead to memory leaks.
- Add bus_child_present check to calls to *_stop in the detach method to
be sure hw is present before touching its registers.
- Remove bzero softc calls since device_t should do this for us.
- dc: move interrupt allocation back where it was before. It was unnecessary
to move it. This reverts part of 1.88
- rl: move irq allocation before ether_ifattach. Problems might have been
caused by allocating the irq after enabling interrupts on the card.
- rl: call rl_stop before ether_ifdetach
- sf: call sf_stop before ether_ifdetach
- sis: add missed free of sis_tag
- sis: check errors from tag creation
- sis: move dmamem_alloc and dmamap_load to happen at same time as tag creation
- sk: remove duplicate initialization of sk_dev
- ste: add missed bus_generic_detach
- ti: call ti_stop before ether_ifdetach
- ti: add missed error setting in ti_rdata alloc failure
- vr: add missed error setting in I/O, memory mapping cases
- xl: add missed error setting in I/O, memory mapping cases
- xl: remove multi-level goto on attach failure
- xl: move dmamem_alloc and dmamap_load to happen at same time as tag creation
- Calls to free(9) are unconditional because it is valid to call free with a
null pointer.

2. The chain will not fit in the remaining descriptors without
defragmentation.
This is slightly less clear than other network drivers because the sis
chips share one descriptor list for all packets, it seems.
Before this change, a > 127 fragment chain would get stuck in the IFQUEUE
permanently, bringing all network traffic to a halt.

Non-SMP, i386-only, no polling in the idle loop at the moment.
To use this code you must compile a kernel with
options DEVICE_POLLING
and at runtime enable polling with
sysctl kern.polling.enable=1
The percentage of CPU reserved to userland can be set with
sysctl kern.polling.user_frac=NN (default is 50)
while the remainder is used by polling device drivers and netisr's.
These are the only two variables that you should need to touch. There
are a few more parameters in kern.polling but the default values
are adequate for all purposes. See the code in kern_poll.c for
more details on them.
Polling in the idle loop will be implemented shortly by introducing
a kernel thread which does the job. Until then, the amount of CPU
dedicated to polling will never exceed (100-user_frac).
The equivalent (actually, better) code for -stable is at
http://info.iet.unipi.it/~luigi/polling/
and also supports polling in the idle loop.
NOTE to Alpha developers:
There is really nothing in this code that is i386-specific.
If you move the 2 lines supporting the new option from
sys/conf/{files,options}.i386 to sys/conf/{files,options} I am
pretty sure that this should work on the Alpha as well, just that
I do not have a suitable test box to try it. If someone feels like
trying it, I would appreciate it.
NOTE to other developers:
sure some things could be done better, and as always I am open to
constructive criticism, which a few of you have already given and
I greatly appreciated.
However, before proposing radical architectural changes, please
take some time to possibly try out this code, or at the very least
read the comments in kern_poll.c, especially re. the reason why I
am using a soft netisr and cannot (I believe) replace it with a
simple timeout.

mbuf allocation fails, and fix (i hope) a couple of style bugs.
I believe these printf() are extremely dangerous because now they can
occur on every incoming packet and are not rate limited. They were
meant to warn the sysadmin about lack of resources, but now they
can become a nice way to panic your system under load.
Other drivers (e.g. the fxp driver) have nothing like this.
There is a pending discussion on putting this kind of warnings
elsewhere, and I hope we can fix this soon.
have alignment problems.
On small boxes (e.g. the net4501 from Soekris, featuring a 486/133)
this provides huge performance benefits: the peak forwarding rate
with avg.sized packets goes up by 50-70% because of this change
alone. Faster CPUs might benefit less from this change, but in any
case the CPU has better things to do than waste time on useless
memory-to-memory copies.
Several drivers (for Tulip-like cards) might benefit from a similar
change.
Right now the new behaviour is controlled by a sysctl variable,
hw.sis_quick which defaults to 1 (on), you can set it to 0 to
reintroduce the old behaviour (and compare the results). The
variable is only there to show how much you can gain with this
change, it will go away soon.
Also, slightly simplify the code to initialize the ring buffers,
and remove a couple of dangerous printf's which could trigger on
any packet in case of mbuf shortage.

to cycle the interface to bring it up again.
The fix consists in adding SIS_IMR_RX_IDLE to the interrupt mask and

I have shaken out all of the problems with busdma on the alpha now.
(Everything seems to work as expected.)
Also, change the max RX DMA limit to 1024 bytes instead of "unlimited,"
as the latter seems not to work correctly on the alpha that I tested.
(At 100Mbps, all attempts to receive frames yield RX errors.)
something: offset into the first mbuf of the target chain before copying
the source data over.
Make drivers using m_devget() with a first argument "data - ETHER_ALIGN"
to use the offset argument to pass ETHER_ALIGN in. The way it was previously
done is potentially dangerous if the source data was at the top of a page
and the offset caused the previous page to be copied (if the
previous page has not yet been appropriately mapped).
The old `offset' argument in m_devget() is not used anywhere (it's always
0) and dates back to ~1995 (and earlier?) when support for ethernet trailers
existed. With that support gone, it was merely collecting dust.
