- Sync shared code with Intel internal
- New client chipset support added
- em driver - fixes to 82574, limit queues to 1 but use MSIX
- em driver - large changes in TX checksum offload and tso
code, thanks to yongari.
- some small changes for watchdog issues.
- igb driver - local timer watchdog code was missing locking
this and a couple other watchdog related fixes.
- bug in rx discard found by Andrew Boyer, check for null pointer
MFC: a week
- Add a single sysctl procedure to all three drivers to read an arbitrary
register (the register is passed as arg2). Use it to replace existing
routines in igb(4) that used a separate routine for each register, and
to add support for missing stats in em(4) and lem(4).
- Move the 'rx_overruns' and 'watchdog_timeouts' stats out of the MAC stats
section as they are driver stats, not MAC counters.
- Simplify the code that creates per-queue stats in igb(4) to use a single
loop and remove duplicated code.
- Properly read all 64 bits of the 'good octets received/transmitted' in
em(4) and lem(4).
- Actually read the interrupt count registers in em(4), and drop the
'host to card' sysctl stats from em(4) as they are not implemented in
any of the hardware this driver supports.
- Restore several stats to em(4) that were lost in the earlier stats
conversion including per-queue stats.
- Export several MAC stats in em(4) that were exported in igb(4) but not
in em(4).
- Export stats in lem(4) using individual sysctls as in em(4) and igb(4).

configuration function. For failed memory allocations, em(4)/lem(4)
called panic(9) which is not acceptable on production box.
igb(4)/ixgb(4)/ix(4) allocated the required memory in stack which
consumed 768 bytes of stack memory which looks too big.
To address these issues, allocate multicast array memory in device
attach time and make multicast configuration success under any
conditions. This change also removes the excessive use of memory in
stack.

a packet has only a header in the first mbuf, the
checksum code will dereference a pointer into the
non-existing IP header. Do a check for the size and
pullup if needed. Thanks to Michael Tuexen for this
fix.
MFC: asap - should be in 8.1 IMHO
unneeded for legacy hardware.
Also remove some TSO related cruft.
Add some watchdog_time setting that was missing, thanks
to Mikolaj Golub for pointing that out.
em revision 7.0.0:
- Using driver devclass, seperate legacy (pre-pcie) code
into a seperate source file. This will at least help
protect against regression issues. It compiles along
with em, and is transparent to end use, devices in each
appear to be 'emX'. When using em in a modular form this
also allows the legacy stuff to be defined out.
- Add tx and rx rings as in igb, in the 82574 this becomes
actual multiqueue for the first time (2 queues) while in
other PCIE adapters its just make code cleaner.
- Add RX mbuf handling logic that matches igb, this will
eliminate packet drops due to temporary mbuf shortage.
igb revision 1.9.3:
- Following the ixgbe code, use a new approach in what
was called 'get_buf', the routine now has been made
independent of rxeof, it now does the update to the
engine TDT register, this design allows temporary
mbuf resources to become non-critical, not requiring
a packet to be discarded, instead it just returns and
does not increment the tail pointer.
- With the above change it was also unnecessary to keep
'spare' maps around, since we do not have the discard
issue.
- Performance tweaks and improvements to the code also.
