hselasky 3f842f881d Flexible and asymmetric allocation of EQs and MSI-X vectors for PF/VFs.
Previously, the mlx4 driver queried the firmware in order to get the
number of supported EQs. Under SRIOV, since this was done before the
driver notified the firmware how many VFs it actually needs, the
firmware had to take into account a worst case scenario and always
allocated four EQs per VF, where one was used for events while the
others were used for completions. Now, when the firmware supports the
asymmetric allocation scheme, denoted by exposing num_sys_eqs > 0 (-->
MLX4_DEV_CAP_FLAG2_SYS_EQS), we use the QUERY_FUNC command to query
the firmware before enabling SRIOV. Thus we can get more EQs and MSI-X
vectors per function. Moreover, when running in the new
firmware/driver mode, the limitation that the number of EQs should be
a power of two is lifted.

For copyright information, please see the file COPYRIGHT in this
directory (additional copyright information also exists for some
sources in this tree - please see the specific source directories for
more information).

The Makefile in this directory supports a number of targets for
building components (or all) of the FreeBSD source tree.  See build(7)
and http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/makeworld.html
for more information, including setting make(1) variables.

The `buildkernel` and `installkernel` targets build and install
the kernel and the modules (see below).  Please see the top of
the Makefile in this directory for more information on the
standard build targets and compile-time flags.

Building a kernel is a somewhat more involved process.  See build(7), config(8),
and http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/kernelconfig.html
for more information.

Note: If you want to build and install the kernel with the
`buildkernel` and `installkernel` targets, you might need to build
world before.  More information is available in the handbook.

The kernel configuration files reside in the sys/<arch>/conf
sub-directory.  GENERIC is the default configuration used in release builds.
NOTES contains entries and documentation for all possible
devices, not just those commonly used.
