NTB: workaround for high traffic hardware hang
This patch comes from Dave Jiang's Linux tree, davejiang/ntb. It hasn't been accepted into Linus' tree, so I do not have an authoritative SHA1 to point at. Original commit log: ===================================================================== A hardware errata causes the NTB to hang when heavy bi-directional traffic in addition to the usage of BAR0/1 (where the registers reside, including the doorbell registers to trigger interrupts). This workaround is only available on Haswell and Broadwell platform. The workaround is to enable split BAR in the BIOS to allow the 64bit BAR4 to be split into two 32bit BAR4 and BAR5. The BAR4 shall be pointed to LAPIC region of the remote host. We will bypass the db mechanism and directly trigger the MSIX interrupts. The offsets and vectors are exchanged during transport scratch pad negotiation. The scratch pads are now overloaded in order to allow the exchange of the information. This gets around using the doorbell and prevents the lockup with additional pcode changes in BIOS. Signed-off-by: Dave Jiang <dave.jiang@intel.com> ===================================================================== Notable changes in the FreeBSD version of this patch: * The MSIX BAR is configurable, like hw.ntb.b2b_mw_idx (msix_mw_idx). The Linux version of the patch only uses BAR4. * MSIX negotiation aborts if the link goes down. Obtained from: Linux (Dual BSD/GPL driver) Sponsored by: EMC / Isilon Storage Division

This is the top level of the FreeBSD source directory. This file was last revised on: $FreeBSD$ 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.
