Poll for link state when the link is down, even for interrupt capable
PHYs.
Allow PHYs to report a dubious "partial" link. If this state is seen 3
consecutive times (each check is ~1s apart) then reset the PHY. This is
a workaround for a situation where repeatedly toggling the link from the
peer gets the AEL2005 PHY into a state where it never establishes a PCS
block lock even when everything is in order.

- Stateful TCP offload drivers for Terminator 3 and 4 (T3 and T4) ASICs.
These are available as t3_tom and t4_tom modules that augment cxgb(4)
and cxgbe(4) respectively. The cxgb/cxgbe drivers continue to work as
usual with or without these extra features.
- iWARP driver for Terminator 3 ASIC (kernel verbs). T4 iWARP in the
works and will follow soon.
Build-tested with make universe.
30s overview
============
What interfaces support TCP offload? Look for TOE4 and/or TOE6 in the
capabilities of an interface:
# ifconfig -m | grep TOE
Enable/disable TCP offload on an interface (just like any other ifnet
capability):
# ifconfig cxgbe0 toe
# ifconfig cxgbe0 -toe
Which connections are offloaded? Look for toe4 and/or toe6 in the
output of netstat and sockstat:
# netstat -np tcp | grep toe
# sockstat -46c | grep toe

Changes since 7.8.0 (from the official changelog):
- Fixed sporadic interrupt generation for associated CQ when processing
a local invalidate work request
- Changes to core scheduling to avoid starving requests from the host
under heavy RDMA Read Request load (e.g. packets to the wire)
- Programmed the tp tx resource limiter in function of the traffic (only
affects iWarp)
- Increased the egress NIC gather list length from 36 to 46 entries

- Run the adapter's tick at 1Hz and remove link state checks from it.
Instead, have each port check its link state. Delay the check so that
it takes place slightly after the driver is notified of a change in
link state. This is a cheap way to debounce these notifications if
many are received in rapid succession. POLL_LINK_1ST_TIME flag can
also be eliminated as a side effect of these changes.
- Do not reset the PHY when link goes down.
- Clear port's link_fault flag if the PHY indicates link is down.
- get_link_status_r should leave speed and duplex alone when link is down.

- Only the tunnelq (TXQ_ETH) requires a buf_ring, an ifq, and the watchdog/timer
callouts. Do not allocate these for the other tx queues.
- Use 16k jumbo clusters only on offload capable cards by default.
- Do not allocate a full tx ring for the offload queue if the card is not
offload capable.
- Slightly better freelist size calculation.
- Fix nmbjumbo4 typo, remove unneeded global variables.

MFC after: 1 month
- remove mbuf iovec - useful, but adds too much complexity when isolated to
the driver
- remove driver private caching - insufficient benefit over UMA to justify
the added complexity and maintenance overhead
- remove separate logic for managing multiple transmit queues, with the
new drbr routines the control flow can be made to much more closely resemble
legacy drivers
- remove dedicated service threads, with per-cpu callouts one can get the same
benefit much more simply by registering a callout 1 tick in the future if there
are still buffered packets
- remove embedded mbuf usage - Jeffr's changes will (I hope) soon be integrated
greatly reducing the overhead of using kernel APIs for reference counting
clusters
- add hysteresis to descriptor coalescing logic
- add coalesce threshold sysctls to allow users to decide at run-time
between optimizing for forwarding / UDP or optimizing for TCP
- add once per second watchdog to effectively close the very rare races
occurring from coalescing
- incorporate Navdeep's changes to the initialization path required to
convert port and adapter locks back to ordinary mutexes (silencing BPF
LOR complaints)
- enable prefetches in get_packet and tx cleaning

1) Add a sysctl that will say what type of PHYs exist on the card.
2) Fix a bug that occurs when an AEL 2005 PHY resets without a transciever
in the card.
3) Unify the PHY link detection code.

1) Fix a bug in dealing with the Alerus 1006 PHY which prevented the
device from ever coming back up once it had been set to down.
2) Add a kernel tunable (hw.cxgb.snd_queue_len) which makes it possible
to give the device more than IFQ_MAXLEN entries in its send queue. The
default remains 50.
3) Add code to place the card'd identification and serial number into
its description (%desc) so that users can tell which card they have
installed.

- remove cpl->iff panic - we can't know the port number from the rspq on the 4-port
- pick the ifnet based on the interface in the CPL header
- switch to using qset 0 for egress on the 4-port for now - may change
when we start using RSS
- move ether_ifdetach to before the port lock gets deinitialized to avoid
hang in the case where there are BPF peers (cxgb_ioctl is called indirectly
when BPF peers are present)
- don't call t3_mac_reset if multiport is set, this was causing tx errors
by misconfiguring the MAC on the 4-port
- change V_TXPKT_INTF to use txpkt_intf as the interfaces are not contiguous

into the rspq
