ethernet controllers based on the AIC-6915 "Starfire" controller chip.
There are single port, dual port and quad port cards, plus one 100baseFX
card. All are 64-bit PCI devices, except one single port model.
The Starfire would be a very nice chip were it not for the fact that
receive buffers have to be longword aligned. This requires buffer
copying in order to achieve proper payload alignment on the alpha.
Payload alignment is enforced on both the alpha and x86 platforms.
The Starfire has several different DMA descriptor formats and transfer
mechanisms. This driver uses frame descriptors for transmission which
can address up to 14 packet fragments, and a single fragment descriptor
for receive. It also uses the producer/consumer model and completion
queues for both transmit and receive. The transmit ring has 128
descriptors and the receive ring has 256.
This driver supports both FreeBSD/i386 and FreeBSD/alpha, and uses newbus
so that it can be compiled as a loadable kernel module. Support for BPF
and hardware multicast filtering is included.
critical mbuf fields to sane values. Simplify the use of ETHER_ALIGN to
enforce payload alignment, and turn it on on the x86 as well as alpha
since it helps with NFS which wants the payload to be longword aligned
even though the hardware doesn't require it.
This fixes a problem with the ti driver causing an unaligned access trap
on the Alpha due to m_adj() sometimes not setting the alignment correctly
because of incomplete mbuf initialization.
the driver_t declaration should be "skc" not "sk". Technically, "skc"
is the parent PCI device (the SysKonnect GEnesis controller) and "sk0"
and "sk1" are the network interfaces that get attached to it.
the device numbers are now minor number only, so that we can still
compare them after dev_t has turned into a blob.
Broken-by: dev_t changes

The spagghetti is hardly understandable at all anymore, so i can't
100 % ascertain this is really the Right Thing to do, maybe our new
floppy driver maintainer, Jesus Monroy Jr can do this. :-))
The structure is the right length, but some of the members (notably
wi_q_info) were off a bit. This causes the received signal strength
values to appear bogus.
vnodes referencing this device.
Details:
cdevsw->d_parms has been removed, the specinfo is available
now (== dev_t) and the driver should modify it directly
when applicable, and the only driver doing so, does so:
vn.c. I am not sure the logic in checking for "<" was right
before, and it looks even less so now.
An intial pool of 50 struct specinfo are depleted during
early boot, after that malloc had better work. It is
likely that fewer than 50 would do.
Hashing is done from udev_t to dev_t with a prime number
remainder hash, experiments show no better hash available
for decent cost (MD5 is only marginally better) The prime
number used should not be close to a power of two, we use
83 for now.
Add new checkalias2() to get around the loss of info from
dev2udev() in bdevvp();
The aliased vnodes are hung on a list straight of the dev_t,
and speclisth[SPECSZ] is unused. The sharing of struct
specinfo means that the v_specnext moves into the vnode
which grows by 4 bytes.
Don't use a VBLK dev_t which doesn't make sense in MFS, now
we hang a dummy cdevsw on B/Cmaj 253 so that things look sane.
Storage overhead from all of this is O(50k).
Bump __FreeBSD_version to 400009
The next step will add the stuff needed so device-drivers can start to
hang things from struct specinfo
interrupts that were scheduled. Testing shows it didn't really do very much
and it makes the code a little more complicated (which is never a good thing).
Also fix the rambuffer offset initialization for the 512K/64K SRAM case
(512K total using 64K chips). It should be 0. The only case with a
non-standard rambuffer offset address is 1024K/64K according to the
SysKonnect manual. (My card has the 1024/64 configuration and I don't know
which card uses the 512/64 configuration, if any, so I'm not sure that
this was really a problem for anyone.)
Change number of VBI lines from 16 to 12 for NTSC formats.

Cross Platform Changes
The driver has been reorgainsed based ideas from Brad Parker's port to Linux
to seperate OS Dependant and Independant sections.
I have backends for FreeBSD 2.2.x/3.x and 4.x newbus, BSDI, OpenBSD and NetBSD.
This commit has FreeBSD 2.2.8/2.2-stable/3.x and FreeBSD 4.x newbus backends.

gigabit ethernet adapters. This includes two single port cards
(single mode and multimode fiber) and two dual port cards (also single
mode and multimode fiber). SysKonnect is currently the only
vendor with a dual port gigabit ethernet NIC.
The ports on dual port adapters are treated as separate network
interfaces. Thus, if you have an SK-9844 dual port SX card, you
should have both sk0 and sk1 interfaces attached. Dual port cards
are implemented using two XMAC II chips connected to a single
SysKonnect GEnesis controller. Hence, dual port cards are really
one PCI device, as opposed to two separate PCI devices connected
through a PCI to PCI bridge. Note that SysKonnect's drivers use
the two ports for failover purposes rather that as two separate
interfaces, plus they don't support jumbo frames. This applies to
their Linux driver too. :)
Support is provided for hardware multicast filtering, BPF and
jumbo frames. The SysKonnect cards support TCP checksum offload
however this feature is not currently enabled (hopefully it will
be once we get checksum offload support).
There are still a few things that need to be implemeted, like
the ability to communicate with the on-board LM80 voltage/temperature
monitor, but I wanted to get the driver under CVS control and into
-current so people could bang on it.
A big thanks for SysKonnect for making all their programming info
for these cards (and for their FDDI and token ring cards) available
without NDA (see www.syskonnect.com).

the size of history (scroll back) buffer.

way of a performance boost, and I'm pretty sure it can cause mbuf leakage
in some extreme cases.
frames (or just insane received packet lengths generated due to errors
reading from the NIC's internal buffers). Anything too large to fit
safely into an mbuf cluster buffer is discarded and an error logged.
I have not observed this problem with my own cards, but on user has
reported it and adding the sanity test seems reasonable in any case.

isp_io_map, isp_no_fwload, isp_fwload, isp_no_nvram, isp_fcduplex
which are all bitmaps of isp instances that should or shouldn't
map memory space, I/O space, not load f/w, load f/w, ignore nvram,
not ignore nvarm, set full duplex mode. Also have an isp_seed value
that we can use to generate a pseudo seed for a synthetic WWN.
Other minor cosmetic cleanup. Add in support for the Qlogic ISP
2200. Very important change where we actually check now to see
whether we were successful in mapping request and response queues
(and fibre channel scratch space).
