setting the 'max packet size' register in window 3. This only
works for cards based on the cyclone or newer chipsets (i.e. it
won't work with the original 3c905/boomerang cards).
There is a trick which will work with the boomerang, which is to turn
on the 'large packets ok' bit in the MAC control register, however this
lets the chip accept any frame up to 4K in length, which is larger than
the mbuf cluster buffers we use to receive frames. If somebody sends us
such a frame and the chip DMAs it to us, it could write past the end
of the cluster buffer and clobber something.

A attacker sending a lot of bogus fragmented packets to the target
(with different IPv4 identification field - ip_id), may be able
to put the target machine into mbuf starvation state.
By setting a upper limit on the number of reassembly queues we
prevent this situation.
This upper limit is controlled by the new sysctl
net.inet.ip.maxfragpackets which defaults to NMBCLUSTERS/4
If you want old behaviour (no upper limit) set this sysctl
to a negative value.
If you don't want to accept any fragments (not recommended)
set the sysctl to 0 (zero)

all alphas with devices behind ppb's. I'm working on a better solution now.
Note that all alphas that use per-platform interrupt mapping are broken

gigabit ethernet controller chip. This device is used on some
fiber optic gigE cards from SMC, D-Link and Addtron. Jumbograms and
TCP/IP checksum offload on receive are supported. Hardware VLAN
filtering is not, because it doesn't play well with our existing
VLAN code. Also add manual page.
There is a 4.x version of this driver available at
http://www.freebsd.org/~wpaul/Level1/4.x if anyone feels adventurous
and wants to test it. I still need to do performance testing and
tuning with this device.
(For my next trick, I will make the 3Com 3cR990 sit up and beg.)

that have bad VJ header compression code which trashes TCP
segments containing unknown-to-them TCP options.

this works on cs4630 chips, and should implement the clkrun hack for
thinkpads- this will display diagnostic messages when triggered until its
correctness is established.
from cpu_switch(), curproc has been changed, but the sched_lock owner will
not be updated until we return to mi_switch(), thus we deadlock against
ourselves. As a workaround, push the acquire and release of sched_lock out
to the callers of set_user_ldt(). Note that we can't use a mtx_assert() in
set_user_ldt for the same reason.

they can be used with cell operators like !.
As I did this, I noticed the whole CELL thing might have problems with
big endian architectures with sizeof(int)!=sizeof(void*).
UDP checksums too, not just IP. The chip only tells us if the checksum
is ok, it does not give us a copy of the partial checksum for later
processing. We have to deal with this the right way, but we can deal
with it.
- Use __func__ instead of __FUNCTION.
- Support power-off to S3 or S5 (takawata)
- Enable ACPI debugging earlier (with a sysinit)
- Fix a deadlock in the EC code (takawata)
- Improve arithmetic and reduce the risk of spurious wakeup in
AcpiOsSleep.
- Add AcpiOsGetThreadId.
- Simplify mutex code (still disabled).
