Yukon FE+ is fast ethernet controller and uses new descriptor
format. Since I don't have this controller, the support code was
written from guess and various feedback from enthusiastic users.
Thanks to all users who patiently tested my initial patches.
Special thanks to Tanguy Bouzeloc who fixed critical bug of initial
patch.

mark controller's capability. Controllers that have jumbo frame
support sets MSK_FLAG_JUMBO, and controllers that does not support
checksum offloading for jumbo frames will set MSK_FLAG_JUMBO_NOCSUM.
For Fast Ethernet controllers it will set MSK_FLAG_FASTETHER and it
would be used in link state handling.
While here, disable Tx checksum offloading if jumbo frame is used
on controllers that does not have Tx checksum offloading capability
for jumbo frame(e.g. Yukon EC Ultra).

o Nuke unneeded jlist lock which was used to protect jumbo buffer
management in local allocator.
o Added a new tunable hw.mskc.jumbo_disable to disable jumbo
frame support for the driver. The tunable could be set for
systems that do not need to use jumbo frames and it would
save (9K * number of Rx descriptors) bytes kernel memory.
o Jumbo buffer allocation failure is no longer critical error
for the operation of msk(4). If msk(4) encounter the allocation
failure it just disables jumbo frame support and continues to
work without your intervention.
Using local allocator had several drawbacks such as requirement of
large amount of continuous kernel memory and fixed (small) number
of available buffers. The need for large continuous memory resulted
in failure of loading driver with kldload on running systems.
Also small number of buffer used in local allocator showed poor
performance for some applications.
This should fix occasional Tx checksum corruption issue.

have hardware ram buffer. The silicon bug seem to be triggered by
pause frames if receive buffer is not aligned on FIFO word(8 bytes).
To workaround the issue, make sure to align Rx buffers on 8 bytes.
Unfortunately this workaround requires yet another Rx fixup for
strict alignment architecture machines to align IP header.
For newer hardwares that lacks ram buffer may not have this bug so
check number of available ram buffer size to see the existence of
ram buffer.

TCP/UDP checksum in driver for short frames. For frames that requires
hardware VLAN tag insertion, the checksum offload trick does not
work due to changes of checksum offset in mbuf after the VLAN tag.
Disable hardware checksum offload for VLAN interface to fix the bug.

Revision 1.4 of if_mskreg.h was not enough to workaround the bug.
To workaround it, inrease GMAC FIFO threshold by one FIFO word to
flush received pause frames.

free function controlable, instead of passing the KVA of the buffer
storage as the first argument.
Fix all conventional users of the API to pass the KVA of the buffer
as the first argument, to make this a no-op commit.
Likely break the only non-convetional user of the API, after informing

Update the mbuf(9) manual page, which was already out of sync on

Bump __FreeBSD_version to 800016 as there is no way to tell how
many arguments a CPP macro needs any other way.
This paves the way for giving sendfile(9) a way to wait for the
passed storage to have been accessed before returning.
This does not affect the memory layout or size of mbufs.

o Rework setting Tx/Rx RAM buffer size. Give receiver 2/3 of memory

Yukon II should be multiple of 1024. This fixes bogus RAM buffer

bug/workaround exist for the specific hardware revision. Also I don't
think the vendor will release hardware errata in near future.
The hardware feature lists were not used at all except setting water
mark registers. Since msk(4) should know exact chip model/revision
number to decide which hardware capability could be used the extra
feature lists were redundant.
o Enable jumbo frame support for EC Ultra and disable jumbo frame
for FE.
o Enable store and forward mode for standard MTU sized frame.
o Enable TSO for EC Ultra. However TSO/checksum offload is disabled
for jumbo frame case. Because EC Ultra can't use store and forward
mode for jumbo frame TSO/checksum offload is not available.
o Adjust Tx GMAC almost empty threshold value and add a jumbo frame
water mark. The maic value was obtained from Marvell's sk98lin
driver.
o Fix EC Ultra chip revision number.

for msk(4). Previously msk(4) used adoptive polling with taskqueue(9)
as all msk(4) hardwares I know supports MSI. However, there are cases
that MSI couldn't be used on some hardwares due to bugs in MSI
implementatins.

MCLBYTES for the segment size but it used too many Tx descriptors in
TSO case.
While I'm here adjust maximum size of the sum of all segment lengths
in a given DMA mapping to 65535, the maximum size, in bytes, of a IP
packet.
It seems that valid pause frames(Tx flow control) cause GMAC to hang
such that it resulted in watchdog timeout. As a work around don't
flush Rx MAC FIFO if we've received pause frames.

Under certain circumtances, if TSO is active, Yukon II generates
corrupted IP packets. All corrupted IP packets I noticed were the the
last segmented packet in a TSO request. The corrupted packet resulted
in retransmission of the damaged packet which in turn decreased network
performance dramatically.
Unfortunately it seems that there is no way to workaround this bug
as TSO is completely handled in hardware. Disable TSO until we find a
working workaround or a new silicon revision that doesn't have this
hardware bug.
Yukon II generated corrupted TCP checksum for short TCP packets
that's less than 60 bytes in size(e.g. window probe packet, pure ACK
packet etc). Padding the frame with zeros to make the frame minimum
ethernet frame size didn't work at all. Instead of dropping Tx
checksum offload support we calculate TCP checksum with S/W method
when we encounter short TCP frames.
Fortunately it seems that short UDP datagrams appear to be handled
correctly by Yukon II.
While I'm here simplify ethernet/VLAN header size calculation logic.

If these drivers are setting M_VLANTAG because they are stripping the
layer 2 802.1Q headers, then they need to be re-inserting them so any
bpf(4) peers can properly decode them.
It should be noted that this is compiled tested only.

Unlike other GigEs Yukon II always set VLAN bit when it detects VLAN
tagged packet regardless of H/W VLAN processing configuration state.
So it need to check IFCAP_VLAN_HWTAGGING bit to know whether driver
is configured to take advantage of H/W VLAN processing. If H/W VLAN
processing was disabled don't adjust received packet length such that
subsequent validation logic works for software VLAN processing.

link state changes. Instead, build new speed/duplex/flow-control
settings from the values reported from PHY.
This should fix speed/duplex/flow-control mismatches between GMAC and
PHY which resulted in very poor Rx performance due to lots of
out-of-order packet delivery.
