Later plan is to provide an administrative downcall from ifnet
layer into drivers, to inform them about administrative status
change. If someone thinks that processing MII events for an
administratively down interface is a big problem, then drivers
would turn MII processing off.
The following MII drivers do evil things, like strcmp() on
driver name, so they still need knowledge of ifnet and thus
include if_var.h. They all need to be fixed:
sys/dev/mii/brgphy.c
sys/dev/mii/e1000phy.c
sys/dev/mii/ip1000phy.c
sys/dev/mii/jmphy.c

checksum header. The header contains a received frame length but
the defined length for AX88772B is different with other ASIX
controllers. When the RX checksum is off, AX88772B controller does
not prepend a checksum header so driver has to use normal header
length mask.
This change should fix RX errors when RX checksum offloading is
off.

controller.
AX88772B data sheet does not show detailed information about
checksum offloading related things. It seems the controller has
lots of options to support checksum offloading but I failed to
understand why this feature requires so much complex controller
configuration and status bits.
One of major difference between AX88772B and its predecessor is
AX88772B uses a new RX header format when RX checksum offloading is
enabled. It also requires the received length of a frame should be
multiple of 4. Controller will pad necessary bytes to make the
length of received frame to be multiple of 4. It is driver's
responsibility to offset this pad bytes.
Note, AX88772B could be configured to get partial checksum value in
in RX header. This mode uses different RX header format and
currently we don't use that fature.
This change makes axe(4) use driver specific MII attach handler to
override uether(9)'s default MII attach and announce flow-control
capability for AX88178/AX88772A/AX88772B to PHY drivers. It seems
original AX88772 also supports flow-control but I didn't enable it
due to lack of test/access to the controller. The flow-control
threshold parameter is loaded from EEPROM and there is no way to
override this value without reprogramming EEPROM. For AX88772B,
TX/RX IP/TCP/UDP checksum offloading is announced to network stack.
IPv6 and PPPoE checksum offloading is also supported by controller
but we have no way to take advantage of these features.
Driver already knows PHY address so make PHY driver know that
information and remove unnecessary PHY address check used in
miibus_readreg/miibus_writereg callbacks. Also announce AX88178,
AX88772A and AX88772B support VLAN over-sized frame.

handler such that driver can announce interface capabilities and
can do its own MII attach. Currently all USB ethernet controllers
have no way to establish a link with pause capabilities. Lack of
checksum offloading support also was one of reason to bring this
change in.
This change adds a couple of wrappers to USB ethernet drivers
(uether_ifmedia_upd, uether_init and uether_start). All exported
functions in uether has prefix uether_ so I think it's more
consistent to have wrappers that follow the convention.
This change preserves ABI/KPI so it should be safe to merge this
change to stable/8.

it corresponds to also is named ex(4) instead of xl(4) but that in FreeBSD
actually identifies itself as xlphy(4), and its function names accordingly
for consistency.
