sysctls were global (hw.fxp_rnr and hw.fxp_noflow), all of them are
now per-device. Sample output of "sysctl dev.fxp0" with this patch,
with the standard %foo nodes removed :
dev.fxp0.int_delay: 1000
dev.fxp0.bundle_max: 6
dev.fxp0.rnr: 0
dev.fxp0.noflow: 0
protect the registers so it was trivially possible for a sync command and
i/o command to fight each other and confuse the controller. Make the
sync fib alloc/release functions inline and remove the somewhat worthless
AAC_SYNC_LOCK_FORCE flag. Thanks to Adil Katchi for helping me to track
this down in RELENG_4.
It was based on the pty(4) driver which as a tty side an a non-tty side.
Nmdm(4) seems to have inherited two symmetric sides from pty but
unfortunately they are not quite ttys. Running a getty one one
side and tip on the other failed to produce NL->CRNL mapping for
instance.
Rip out the basically bogus cdevsw->{read,write} functions and rely
on ttyread() and ttywrite() which does the same thing.
Use taskqueue_swi_giant to run a task for either side to do what
needs to be done. (Direct calling is not an option as it leads to
recursion.) Trigger the task from the t_oproc and t_stop methods.
Default the ports to not ECHO. Since we neither rate limiting nor
emulation, two ports echoing each other is a really bad idea, which
can only be properly mitigated by rate limiting, rate emulation or
intelligent detection. Rate emulation would be a neat feature.
Ditch the modem-line emulation, if needed for some app, it needs
to be thought much more about how it interacts with the open/close
logic.
every iteration of aac_startio(). This ensures that a command that is
deferred for lack of resources doesn't immediately get retried in the
aac_startio() loop. This avoids an almost certain livelock.
my Elektor card. Note that the hints are necessary to specify the
IO base of the pcf chip. This enables to check the IO base when the
probe routine is called during ISA enumeration.
The interrupt driven code is mixed with polled mode, which is wrong
and produces supposed spurious interrupts at each access. I still have
to work on it.
This is part 2/2 of fixing autonegotiation on hme(4) using DP83840A PHYs.
It appears to also fix the occasional problems to establish a link on
hme(4) using LU6612 PHYs and shouldn't hurt on those using QS6612 PHYs.

properly. This causes the autonegotiation to e.g. never establish a
100baseTX full-duplex link. The solution to this problem is to manually
write the capabilities from the BMSR to the ANAR every time a media
change occurs, even when already in autonegotiation mode.
The NetBSD way of doing this is to set their MIIF_FORCEANEG flag in the
NIC driver. This causes mii_phy_setmedia() to call mii_phy_auto() (which
will set the ANAR according to the BMSR) even when the PHY alread is in
autonegotiation mode. However, while doing the same on FreeBSD (which
involves porting the MIIF_FORCEANEG flag and converting nsphy.c to use
mii_phy_setmedia()) fixes autonegotiation, using mii_phy_setmedia()
causes this driver to no longer work properly in the other modes.
Another drawback of that approach is that this will also force writing
the ANAR on other PHYs whose drivers use mii_phy_setmedia() and which
are used with a NIC whose driver sets MIIF_FORCEANEG (e.g. hme(4) is
known to be used together with 3 different PHYs while only the DP83840A
require this workaround).
So instead of moving to MIIF_FORCEANEG, just call mii_phy_auto() in
nsphy_service() unconditionally when hanging off of a hme(4) and serving
a media change

pipes, since open pipes are linked off a usbd_interface structure
that is free()'d when the configuration index is changed. Attempting
to close or use such pipes later would access freed memory and
usually crash the system.
The only driver that is known to trigger this problem is if_axe,
which is itself at fault, but it is worth detecting the situation
to avoid the obscure crashes that result from this type of easily
made driver mistakes.
make the key name matching case-insensitive. There are some drivers
and .inf files that have mismatched cases, e.g. the driver will look
for "AdhocBand" whereas the .inf file specifies a registry key to be
created called "AdHocBand." The mismatch is probably a typo that went
undetected (so much for QA), but since Windows seems to be case-insensitive,
we should be too.
In if_ndis.c, initialize rates and channels correctly so that specify
frequences correctly when trying to set channels in the 5Ghz band, and
so that 802.11b rates show up for some a/b/g cards (which otherwise
appear to have no 802.11b modes).
Also, when setting OID_802_11_CONFIGURATION in ndis_80211_setstate(),
provide default values for the beacon interval, ATIM window and dwelltime.
The Atheros "Aries" driver will crash if you try to select ad-hoc mode
and leave the beacon interval set to 0: it blindly uses this value and
does a division by 0 in the interrupt handler, causing an integer
divide trap.
correct. Instead, check it against the possible settings (_PRS) when
the link is probed. This is important when using APIC mode but link
devices still have PIC mode settings. This is also what Linux does.

based on the destination sleep state. Add a method to restore the old
state on resume. This is needed for the case of suspending to a very low
state disabling a GPE (i.e. S4), resuming, and then suspending to a higher
state (i.e. S3). This case should now keep the proper GPEs enabled.
