r269413, r269428, r269440, r269537, r269644, r269731, and the cxgbe
portion of r270063.
r266571:
cxgbe(4): Remove stray if_up from the code that creates the tracing ifnet.
r266757:
cxgbe(4): netmap support for Terminator 5 (T5) based 10G/40G cards.
Netmap gets its own hardware-assisted virtual interface and won't take
over or disrupt the "normal" interface in any way. You can use both
simultaneously.
For kernels with DEV_NETMAP, cxgbe(4) carves out an ncxl<N> interface
(note the 'n' prefix) in the hardware to accompany each cxl<N>
interface. These two ifnet's per port share the same wire but really
are separate interfaces in the hardware and software. Each gets its own
L2 MAC addresses (unicast and multicast), MTU, checksum caps, etc. You
should run netmap on the 'n' interfaces only, that's what they are for.
With this, pkt-gen is able to transmit > 45Mpps out of a single 40G port
of a T580 card. 2 port tx is at ~56Mpps total (28M + 28M) as of now.
Single port receive is at 33Mpps but this is very much a work in
progress. I expect it to be closer to 40Mpps once done. In any case
the current effort can already saturate multiple 10G ports of a T5 card
at the smallest legal packet size. T4 gear is totally untested.

r268536:
cxgbe(4): Add an iSCSI softc to the adapter structure.
r269076:
Some hooks in cxgbe(4) for the offloaded iSCSI driver.
r269364:
Improve compliance with style.Makefile(5).
r269366:
List one file per line in the Makefiles. This makes it easier to read
diffs when a file is added or removed.
r269411:
cxgbe(4): minor optimizations in ingress queue processing.
Reorganize struct sge_iq. Make the iq entry size a compile time
constant. While here, eliminate RX_FL_ESIZE and use EQ_ESIZE directly.
r269413:
cxgbe(4): Fix an off by one error when looking for the BAR2 doorbell
address of an egress queue.
r269428:
cxgbe(4): some optimizations in freelist handling.
r269440:
cxgbe(4): Remove an unused version of t4_enable_vi.
r269537:
cxgbe(4): Do not run any sleepable code in the SIOCSIFFLAGS handler when
IFF_PROMISC or IFF_ALLMULTI is being flipped. bpf(4) holds its global
mutex around ifpromisc in at least the bpf_dtor path.
r269644:
cxgbe(4): Let caller specify whether it's ok to sleep in
t4_sched_config and t4_sched_params.
r269731:
cxgbe(4): Do not poke T4-only registers on a T5 (and vice versa).
Relnotes: Yes (native netmap support for Chelsio T4/T5 cards)
