going on with the occasional garbage rs_antenna field reported by AR9285
users.
I've discovered that the 11n NICs only fill out the entire RX status
descriptor on the final descriptor in an aggregate. Some of the fields
(notably RSSI) are complete nonsense for A-MPDU subframes. This may
be another example of this.
The driver doesn't currently toss out statistics for non-final aggregate
frames. It's likely that this should be done.
If any users hit this particular debugging message they should report it
immediately to freebsd-wireless@freebsd.org - please ensure you have
ATH_DEBUG enabled so it prints out the full receive descriptor.

There's currently no public code which uses this feature and the
current reference driver doesn't enable this feature at all.
It's possible it was used by a previous version of the driver and
that indeed it should return HAL_STATUS; but at this point I'm
happy to require that they complain and submit a patch.
This was found by LLVM compile-time type checking.

This change is designed to let USB keyboard work in the panic context
with stop_scheduler_on_panic=1. Most of change consists of removing
mtx_owned() checks where they can be easily avoided. Some additional
lock cleanup is performed along the way.
A list of the smaller changes:
- newbus methods should be executed with Giant already held, just assert
this
- kbd methods called in the non-polling context should be executed with
Giant already held, just assert this
- Giant is recursive, so we should just take it where we must have it,
without redundant checks if we already have it
- thanks to recent syscons changes we don't need to go through the hoops
to detect if kernel is going to poll us; polling mode is now clearly
separated from non-polling mode
- at present the polling mode can be entered by only one thread
- document special cases in greater detail
Please note that the ukbd code and underlying USB code still lve
dangerously in the kdb context by trying to obtain various locks
including the Giant. If any of those locks are already held by the
stopped threads, then the things would blow up.
Another limitation of the ukbd driver is that it is detached before a
system enters the halt state.
With this commit we can enable kern.stop_scheduler_on_panic by default,
that should not introduce any regressions.

attached this way.
The AR5212 based NICs have a variety of RF frontends, so there's a linker set
which the AR5212 attach routine calls. The same framework is used for the
AR5416 and later but as there's a fixed RF frontend for each 11n NIC, it
is just directly attached.
However in the case of compiling a cut down HAL (eg _just_ AR9130 WMAC support),
the linker set ends up being empty and this causes the compile to fail.
So this is just a workaround for that - it means those users who wish an 11n

"ath_ar5212" for the AR5212/AR5416 common code, and it'll just work.

Because bce(4) generates multiple link state change interrupts
while auto-negotiation is in progress, bce_tick() would be
called multiple times and this resulted in generating multiple
link UP/DOWN messages.
With this change, bce_tick() is not called in interrupt handler

There have still been intermittent problems with apparent TX
hangs for some customers. These have been problematic to reproduce
but I believe these changes will address them. Testing on a number
of fronts have been positive.
EM: there is an important 'chicken bit' fix for 82574 in the shared
code this is supported in the core here.
- The TX path has been tightened up to improve performance. In
particular UDP with jumbo frames was having problems, and the
changes here have improved that.
- OACTIVE has been used more carefully on the theory that some
hangs may be due to a problem in this interaction
- Problems with the RX init code, the "lazy" allocation and
ring initialization has been found to cause problems in some
newer client systems, and as it really is not that big a win
(its not in a hot path) it seems best to remove it.
- HWTSO was broken when VLAN HWTAGGING or HWFILTER is used, I
found this was due to an error in setting up the descriptors
in em_xmit.
IGB:
- TX is also improved here. With multiqueue I realized its very
important to handle OACTIVE only under the CORE lock so there
are no races between the queues.
- Flow Control handling was broken in a couple ways, I have changed
and I hope improved that in this delta.
- UDP also had a problem in the TX path here, it was change to
improve that.
- On some hardware, with the driver static, a weird stray interrupt
seems to sometimes fire and cause a panic in the RX mbuf refresh
code. This is addressed by setting interrupts late in the init
path, and also to set all interrupts bits off at the start of that.
support of new deltas for both em and igb drivers.
Note that I am not able to track all the bugs fixed in
this code, I am a consumer of it as a component of my
core drivers. It is important to keep the FreeBSD drivers
up to date with it however.
One important note is there is a key fix for 82574 in this
update. Also, there are lots of white space changes, I am
not happy about them but have no control over it :)
control. Controller does not automatically generate pause frames
based on number of available RX buffers so it's very hard to
know when driver should generate XON frame in time. The only
mechanism driver can detect low number of RX buffer condition is
ET_INTR_RXRING0_LOW or ET_INTR_RXRING1_LOW interrupt. This
interrupt is generated whenever controller notices the number of
available RX buffers are lower than pre-programmed value(
ET_RX_RING0_MINCNT and ET_RX_RING1_MINCNT register). This scheme
does not provide a way to detect when controller sees enough number
of RX buffers again such that efficient generation of XON/XOFF
frame is not easy.
While here, add more flow control related register definition.
interrupt is ours. Note, interrupts are automatically ACKed when
the status register is read.
Add RX/TX DMA error to interrupt handler and do full controller
reset if driver happen to encounter these errors. There is no way
to recover from these DMA errors without controller reset.
Rename local variable name intrs with status to enhance
readability.
While I'm here, rename ET_INTR_TXEOF and ET_INTR_RXEOF to
ET_INTR_TXDMA and ET_INTR_RXDMA respectively. These interrupts
indicate that a frame is successfully DMAed to controller's
internal FIFO and they have nothing to do with EOF(end of frame).
Driver does not need to wait actual end of TX/RX of a frame(e.g.
no need to wait the end signal of TX which is generated when a
frame in TX FIFO is emptied by MAC). Previous names were somewhat
confusing.
suspend state. This will save more power.
On resume, make sure to enable all clocks. While I'm here, if
controller is not fast ethernet, enable gigabit PHY.
Don't blindly re-initialize controller whenever MTU is changed.
Now, reinitializing is done only when driver is running.
While here, remove unnecessary assignment of error value since it
was already initialized to 0.
o Do not report link status if driver is not running.
o TX/RX MAC configuration should be done with resolved speed,
duplex and flow control after establishing a link so it can't
be done in driver initialization routine.
Move the configuration to miibus_statchg callback which will be
called whenever any link state change is detected.
At this moment, flow-control is not enabled yet mainly because
I was not able to set correct flow control parameters to
generate TX pause frames.
o Now TX/RX MAC is enabled only when a valid link is detected.
Rearragnge hardware initialization routine a bit to leave
enabling MAC to miibus_statchg callback. In order to that,
TX/RX DMA engine is enabled in et_init_locked().
o Introduce ET_FLAG_LINK flag to track current link state.
o Introduce ET_FLAG_FASTETHER flag to mark whether controller is
fast ethernet. This flag is checked in miibus_statchg callback
to know whether PHY established a valid link.
o In et_stop(), TX/RX MAC is explicitly disabled instead of
relying on et_reset(). And move et_reset() from et_stop() to
controller initialization. Controler reset is not required here
and it would also clear critial registers(i.e station address,
RX filter configuration, WOL etc) that are required to make WOL
work.
o Switching to current media is done in et_init_locked() after
setting IFF_DRV_RUNNING flag. This should ensure reliable
auto-negotiation/manual link establishment.
o In et_start_locked(), check whether driver got a valid link
before trying to send frames.
o Remove checking a link in et_tick() as this is done by
miibus_statchg callback.

CSR_WRITE_4 macro. Also add disabling interrupt into et_reset()

readable one.
send a single TX command after setting up all TX frames. This
removes unnecessary register accesses and bus_dmamap_sync(9) calls.
et(4) uses TX interrupt moderation so it's possible to have TX
buffers that were already transmitted but waiting for TX completion
interrupt. If the number of available TX descriptor is less then
1/3 of total TX descriptor, try reclaiming first to get enough free
TX descriptors before setting up TX descriptors.
After r228325, et_txeof() no longer tries to send frames after
reclaiming TX buffers. That change was made to give more chance
to transmit frames in main interrupt handler since we can still
send frames in interrupt handler with RX interrupt. So right
before exiting interrupt hander, after enabling interrupt, try to
send more frames. This gives slightly better performance numbers.
While I'm here reduce number of spare TX descriptors from 8 to 4.
Controller does not require reserved TX descriptors, it was just to
reduce TX overhead. After r228325, driver has much lower TX
overhead so it does not make sense to reserve 8 TX descriptors.
change should make et(4) work on any architectures.
o Remove m_getl inline function and replace it with stanard mbuf
interfaces. Previous code tried to minimize code duplication
but this came from incorrect use of common DMA tag.
Driver may be still use a common RX allocation handler with
additional structure changes but I don't see much point to do
that it would make it hard to understand the code.
o Remove DragonflyBSD specific constant EVL_ENCAPLEN, use
ETHER_VLAN_ENCAP_LEN instead.
o Add bunch of new RX status definition. It seems controller
supports RX checksum offloading but I was not able to make the
feature work yet. Currently driver checks whether recevied
frame is good one or not.
o Avoid a typedef ending in '_t' as style(9) says.
o Controller has no restriction on DMA address space, so there
is no reason to limit the DMA address to 32bit. Descriptor
rings, status blocks and TX/RX buffers now use full 64bit DMA
addressing.
o Allocate DMA memory shared between host and controller as
coherent.
o Create 3 separate DMA tags to be used as TX, mini RX ring and
stanard RX ring. Previously it created a single DMA tag and it
was used to all three rings.
o et(4) does not support jumbo frame at this moment and I still
don't quite understand how jumbo frame works on this controller
so use two RX rings to handle small sized frame and normal sized
frame respectively. The mini RX ring will be used to receive
frames that are less than or equal to 127 bytes. The second RX
ring is used to receive frames that are not handled by the first
RX ring.
If jumbo frame support is implemented, driver may have to choose
better RX scheme by letting the second RX ring handle jumbo
frames. This scheme will mimic Broadcom's efficient jumbo frame
handling feature. However RAM buffer size(16KB) of the
controller is too small to hold 2 jumbo frames, if 9KB
jumbo frame is used, I'm not sure how good performance would it
have.
o In et_rxeof(), make sure to check whether controller received
good frame or not. Passing corrupted frame to upper layer is
bad idea.
o If driver receives a bad frame or driver fails to allocate RX
buffer due to resource shortage condition, reuse previously
loaded DMA map for RX buffer instead of unloading/loading RX
buffer again.
o et_init_tx_ring() never fails so change return type to void.
o In watchdog handler, show TX DMA write back status of errored
frame which could be used as a clue to debug watchdog timeout.
o Add missing bus_dmamap_sync() in various places such that et(4)
should work with bounce buffers(e.g. PAE).
o TX side bus_dmamap_load_mbuf_sg(9) support.
o RX side bus_dmamap_load_mbuf_sg(9) support.
o Controller has no DMA alignment limit in RX buffer so use
m_adj(9) in RX buffer allocation to make IP header align on 2
bytes boundary. Otherwise it would trigger unaligned access
error in upper layer on strict alignment architectures.
One of down side of controller is it provides limited set of RX
buffer length like most Intel controllers. This is not problem
at this moment because driver does not support jumbo frame yet
but it may require alignment fixup code to support jumbo frame
on strict alignment architectures.
o In et_txeof(), don't zero TX descriptors for transmitted frames.
TX descriptors don't need write access after transmission.
Driver sets IFF_DRV_OACTIVE when the number of available TX
descriptors are less than or equal to ET_NSEG_SPARE. Make sure
to clear IFF_DRV_OACTIVE only when the number of available TX
descriptor is greater than ET_NSEG_SPARE.

On my hardware, "em" in netmap mode does about 1.388 Mpps
on one card (on an Asus motherboard), and 1.1 Mpps on another
card (PCIe bus). Both seem to be NIC-limited, because
i have the same rate even with the CPU running at 150 MHz.
On the "re" driver the tx throughput is around 420-450 Kpps
on various (8111C and the like) chipsets. On the Rx side
performance seems much better, and i can receive the full
load generated by the "em" cards.
"igb" is untested as i don't have the hardware.
A link reset now is completely transparent for the netmap client:
even if the NIC resets its own ring (e.g. restarting from 0),
the client will not see any change in the current rx/tx positions,
because the driver will keep track of the offset between the two.

following some initial comments from Jack Vogel about making
changes less intrusive.
(Note, i have emailed Jack multiple times asking if he had
comments on this structure of the code; i got no reply so
i assume he is fine with it).
Support for other drivers (em, lem, re, igb) will come later.
"ixgbe" is now the reference driver for netmap support. Both the
external file (sys/dev/netmap/ixgbe_netmap.h) and the device-specific

serve as a reference for other device drivers.

two register address bytes are sent, then the 16-bit register value is sent
or received. While the register write access can be performed as a 4-byte
write, the read access requires the read bit to be set, but the first two bytes
for the register address then need to be transmitted.
This patch maintains the i2c protocol behaviour but allows it to be relaxed
(for these kinds of switch PHYs, and whatever else Realtek may do with this
almost-but-not-quite i2c bus) - by setting the "strict" hint to 0.
The "strict" hint defaults to 1.

Because there is no reliable way to know whether RX MAC is in
stopped state, rejecting all frames would be the only way to
minimize possible races.
Otherwise it's possible to receive frames while stop command
execution is in progress and controller can DMA the frame to freed
RX buffer during that period.
This was observed on recent PCIe controllers(i.e. RTL8111F).
While this change may not be required on old controllers it
wouldn't make negative effects on old controllers. One side effect
of this change is disabling receive so driver reprograms RL_RXCFG
to receive WOL frames when it is put into suspend or shutdown.
This should address occasional 'memory modified free' errors seen

Pause timer value is initialized to 0xFFFF. Controller allows just
4 different TX pause thresholds. The lowest possible threshold
value looks too aggressive so use next available threshold value.
- Remove MIIBUS statchg callback and program VGE_DIAGCTL before
initiating link establishment. Previously driver used to
program VGE_DIAGCTL after getting a link in statchg callback.
It seems the VGE_DIAGCTL register works like a kind of MII
register such that it requires setting a 'to be' mode in advance
rather than relying on resolved speed/duplex of established link.
This means the statchg callback is not needed in driver. In
addition, if there was no link at the time of media change, this
was not called at all.
- Introduce vge_ifmedia_upd_locked() to change current media to
configured one. Actual media change is performed only after PHY
reset and VGE_DIAGCTL setup.
- In WOL configuration, make sure to clear forced mode such that
controller can rely on auto-negotiation.
- Unlike most other drivers that use miibus(4), vge(4) used
controller's auto-polling feature for link state tracking via
interrupt. This came from controller's inefficient mechanism to
access MII registers. On link state change interrupt, vge(4)
used to get current link state with series of MII register
accesses. Because vge(4) already enabled auto polling, read PHY
status register to resolved speed/duplex/flow control parameters.
vge(4) still does not drive MII_TICK to reduce number of MII
register accesses which in turn means the driver does not know the
status of auto-negotiation. This was a one of long standing
issue of vge(4). Probably driver may be able to implement a timer
that keeps track of auto-negotiation state and restart
auto-negotiation when driver couldn't establish a link within a
specified period. However the controller does not provide a
reliable way to detect auto-negotiation failure so I'm not sure
whether it's worth to implement it in driver.
Alternatively driver can completely disable MII auto-polling and
let miibus(4) poll link state by driving MII_TICK. This may reduce
unnecessary overhead of stopping/restarting MII auto-polling of
controller. Unfortunately it was known that some variants of
controller does not work correctly if MII auto-polling is disabled.

"correct" handling of frames in the RX pending queue during interface
transitions.
* ath_stoprecv() doesn't blank out the descriptor list - that's what
ath_startrecv() does. So, change a comment to reflect that.
* ath_stoprecv() does include a large (3ms) delay to let pending DMA
complete. However, I'm under the impression that the stopdma hal
method does check for a bit in the PCU to indicate DMA has stopped.
So, to help with fast abort and restart, modify ath_stoprecv() to take
a flag which indicates whether this is needed.
* Modify the uses of ath_stoprecv() to pass in a flag to support the
existing behaviour (ie, do the delay.)
* Remove some duplicate PCU teardown code (which wasn't shutting down DMA,
so it wasn't entirely correct..) and replace it with a call to
ath_stoprecv(sc, 0) - which disables the DELAY call.
The upshoot of this is now channel change doesn't simply drop completed
frames on the floor, but instead it cleanly handles those frames.
It still discards pending TX frames in the software and hardware queues
as there's no (current) logic which forcibly recalculates the rate control
information (or whether they're appropriate to be on the TX queue after
a channel change), that'll come later.
This still doesn't stop all the sources of queue stalls but it does
tidy up some of the code duplication.
To be complete, queue stalls now occur during normal behaviour -
they only occur after some kind of broken behaviour causes an interface
or node flush, upsetting the TX/RX BAW. Subsequent commits will
incrementally fix these and other related issues.

to it. This is mainly necessarily for PHY switches that create duplicate

simply cause problems when ukphy(4) isolates the additional instances.
- Change miibus(4) to be a hinted bus, allowing to add child devices via
hints and to set their attach arguments (including for automatically
probed PHYs). This is mainly needed for PHY switches that violate IEEE
802.3 and don't even implement the basic register set so we can't probe
them automatically. However, the ability to alter the attach arguments
for automatically probed PHYs is also useful as for example it allows
to test (or tell a user to test) new variant of a PHY with a specific
driver by letting an existing driver attach to it via manipulating the
IDs without the need to touch the source code or to limit a Gigabit
Ethernet PHY to only announce up to Fast Ethernet in order to save
energy by limiting the capability mask. Generally, a driver has to
be hinted via hint.phydrv.X.at="miibusY" and hint.phydrv.X.phyno="Z"
(which already is sufficient to add phydrvX at miibusY at PHY address
Z). Then optionally the following attach arguments additionally can
be configured:

for the ath(4) driver.
Currently, there's nothing stopping reset, channel change and general
TX/RX from overlapping with each other. This wasn't a big deal with
pre-11n traffic as it just results in some dropped frames.
It's possible this may have also caused some inconsistencies and
badly-setup hardware.
Since locks can't be held across all of this (the Linux solution)
due to LORs with the network stack locks, some state counter
variables are used to track what parts of the code the driver is
currently in.
When the hardware is being reset, it disables the taskqueue and
waits for pending interrupts, tx, rx and tx completion before
it begins the reset or channel change.
TX and RX both abort if called during an active reset or channel
change.
Finally, the reset path now doesn't flush frames if ATH_RESET_NOLOSS
is set. Instead, completed TX and RX frames are passed back up to
net80211 before the reset occurs.
This is not without problems:
* Raw frame xmit are just dropped, rather than placed on a queue.
The net80211 stack should be the one which queues these frames
rather than the driver.
* It's all very messy. It'd be better if these hardware operations
were serialised on some kind of work queue, rather than hoping
they can be run in parallel.
* The taskqueue block/unblock may occur in parallel with the
newstate() function - which shuts down the taskqueue and restarts
it once the new state is known. It's likely these operations should
be refcounted so the taskqueue is restored once no other areas
in the code wish to suspend operations.
* .. interrupt disable/enable should likely be refcounted as well.
With this work, the driver does not drop frames during stuck beacon
or fatal errors and thus 11n traffic continues to run correctly.
Default and full resets however do still drop frames and it's possible
this may occur, causing traffic loss and session stalls.

controllers.
More and more RealTek controllers started to implement EEE feature.
Vendor driver seems to load a kind of firmware for EEE with
additional PHY fixups. It is known that the EEE feature may need
ASPM support. Unfortunately there is no documentation for EEE of
the controller so enabling ASPM may cause more problems.
Unnecessarily complex LE format used on Marvell controller was
main reason not to enable 64bit DMA addressing in driver. If high
32bit address of DMA address of TX/RX buffer is changed, driver has
to generate a new LE. In TX path, driver will keep track of lastly
used high 32bit address of DMA address and generate a new LE
whenever it sees high address change in the DMA address. In RX path,
driver will always use two LEs to specify 64bit DMA address of RX
buffer. If the high 32bit address of DMA address of RX buffer is
the same as previous DMA address of RX buffer, driver does not have
to use two LEs but driver will use two LEs for simplicity in RX
ring management.
One of draw back for switching to 64bit DMA addressing is that the
large amount of LEs are used to specify 64bit DMA address such that
number of available LEs for TX/RX buffers are considerably reduced.
To mitigate the issue, increase number of available LEs from 256 to
384 for TX and from 256 to 512 for RX. For 32bit architectures,
msk(4) does not use 64bit DMA addressing to save resources.

For Tigon II, mini RX ring and TX ring are additionally created.
- Added missing bus_dmamap_sync(9) in various TX/RX paths.
- TX ring is no longer created for Tigon 1 such that it saves more

- Data sheet is not clear about alignment requirement of each ring

alignment for jumbo RX ring where the extended RX descriptor
size is 64 bytes.
- For each TX/RX buffers use separate DMA tag(e.g. the size of a

- Tigon allows separate DMA area for event producer, RX return
producer and TX consumer which is really cool feature. This
means TX and RX path could be independently run in parallel.
However ti(4) uses a single driver lock so it's meaningless
to have separate DMA area for these producer/consumer such that
this change creates a single status DMA area.
- It seems Tigon has no limits on DMA address space and I also

The interface has to be brought down and up again before a change

ti(4) controller supports hardware MAC counters with additional

counters were not exported via sysctl.
