established a valid link or not.
In rl_start_locked, don't try to send packets unless we have valid
link. While I'm here add a check that verifies whether driver can
accept Tx requests by inspecting IFF_DRV_OACTIVE/IFF_DRV_RUNNING
flag.
- The hardware does not support DAC so limit DMA address space to
4GB.
- Removed BUS_DMA_ALLOC_NOW flag.
- Created separated Tx buffer and Rx buffer DMA tags. Previously
it used to single DMA tag and it was not possible to specify
different DMA restrictions.
- Apply 4 bytes alignment limitation of Tx buffer.
- Apply 8 bytes alignment limitation of Rx buffer.
- Tx side bus_dmamap_load_mbuf_sg(9) support.
- Preallocate Tx DMA maps as creating DMA maps take very long time
on architectures that require real DMA maps.
- Adjust guard buffer size to 1522 + 8 as it should include VLAN
and additional reserved bytes in Rx buffer.
- Plug memory leak in device detach. Previously wrong buffer
address was used to free allocated memory.
- Added rl_list_rx_init() to clear Rx buffer and cleared the
buffer.
- Don't destroy DMA maps in rl_txeof() as the DMA map should be
reused. There is no reason to destroy/recreate the DMA maps in
this driver.
- Removed rl_dma_map_rxbuf()/rl_dma_map_txbuf() callbacks.
- The hardware does not support descriptor based DMA on Tx side
and the Tx buffer address should be aligned on 4 bytes boundary
as well as manual padding for short frames. Because of this
hardware limitation rl(4) always used to invoke m_defrag(9) to
get a 4 bytes aligned single buffer. However m_defrag(9) takes
a lot of CPU cycles on slow machines and not all packets need
the help of m_defrag(9). Armed with the information, don't
invoke m_defrag(9) if the following conditions are true.
1. Buffer is not fragmented.
2. Buffer is aligned on 4 bytes boundary.
3. Manual padding is not necessary.
4. Or padding is necessary but upper stack passed a writable
buffer and the space needed for padding is satisfied.
This change combined with preallocated DMA maps greatly
increased Tx performance of driver on sparc64.
- Moved bus_dmamap_sync(9) in rl_start_locked() to rl_encap() and
corrected memory synchronization operation specifier of
bus_dmamap_sync(9).
- Removed bus_dmamap_unload(9) in rl_stop(). There is no need to
reload/unload Rx buffer as rl(4) always have to copy from the
buffer. It just needs proper bus_dmamap_sync(9) calls before
copying the received frame.
With this change rl(4) should work on systems with more than 4GB
memory.

received frame under certain conditions. wpaul said the length
0xfff0 is special meaning that indicates hardware is in the
process of copying a packet into host memory. But it seems
there are other cases that hardware is busy or stuck in bad
situation even if the received frame length is not 0xfff0.
To work-around this condition, add a check that verifys that
recevied frame length is in valid range. If received length is out
of range reinitialize hardware to recover from stuck condition.

Ever since switching to adaptive polling re(4) occasionally spews
watchdog timeouts on systems with MSI capability. This change is
minimal one for supporting MSI and re(4) also needs MSIX support
for RTL8111C in future. Because softc structure of re(4) is shared

This fixes problem with idle polling.
o Make registration and deregistration from polling in a

o Obsolete kern.polling.enable. Polling is turned on/off

Detailed kern_poll.c changes:
- Remove polling handler flags, introduced in 1.21. The are not
needed now.
- Forget and do not check if_flags, if_capenable and if_drv_flags.
- Call all registered polling handlers unconditionally.
- Do not drop poll_mtx, when entering polling handlers.
- In ether_poll() NET_LOCK_GIANT prior to locking poll_mtx.
- In netisr_poll() axe the block, where polling code asks drivers
to unregister.
- In netisr_poll() and ether_poll() do polling always, if any
handlers are present.
- In ether_poll_[de]register() remove a lot of error hiding code. Assert
that arguments are correct, instead.
- In ether_poll_[de]register() use standard return values in case of
error or success.
- Introduce poll_switch() that is a sysctl handler for kern.polling.enable.
poll_switch() goes through interface list and enabled/disables polling.
A message that kern.polling.enable is deprecated is printed.
Detailed driver changes:
- On attach driver announces IFCAP_POLLING in if_capabilities, but
not in if_capenable.
- On detach driver calls ether_poll_deregister() if polling is enabled.
- In polling handler driver obtains its lock and checks IFF_DRV_RUNNING
flag. If there is no, then unlocks and returns.
- In ioctl handler driver checks for IFCAP_POLLING flag requested to
be set or cleared. Driver first calls ether_poll_[de]register(), then
obtains driver lock and [dis/en]ables interrupts.
- In interrupt handler driver checks IFCAP_POLLING flag in if_capenable.
If present, then returns.This is important to protect from spurious
interrupts.

struct ifnet or the layer 2 common structure it was embedded in have
been replaced with a struct ifnet pointer to be filled by a call to the
new function, if_alloc(). The layer 2 common structure is also allocated
via if_alloc() based on the interface type. It is hung off the new
struct ifnet member, if_l2com.
This change removes the size of these structures from the kernel ABI and
will allow us to better manage them as interfaces come and go.
Other changes of note:
- Struct arpcom is no longer referenced in normal interface code.
Instead the Ethernet address is accessed via the IFP2ENADDR() macro.
To enforce this ac_enaddr has been renamed to _ac_enaddr.
- The second argument to ether_ifattach is now always the mac address
from driver private storage rather than sometimes being ac_enaddr.
