MFC: r243857 (partial)

2013-03-09T00:39:54Z

Mechanically substitute flags from historic mbuf allocator with malloc(9) flags in sys/dev.

Add new tunable 'net.link.ifqmaxlen' to set default send interface

queue length. The default value for this parameter is 50, which is quite low for many of today's uses and the only way to modify this parameter right now is to edit if_var.h file. Also add read-only sysctl with the same name, so that it's possible to retrieve the current value. MFC after: 1 month

Fix comment typo.

Use if_maddr_rlock()/if_maddr_runlock() rather than IF_ADDR_LOCK()/

2009-06-26T11:45:06Z

IF_ADDR_UNLOCK() across network device drivers when accessing the per-interface multicast address list, if_multiaddrs. This will allow us to change the locking strategy without affecting our driver programming interface or binary interface. For two wireless drivers, remove unnecessary locking, since they don't actually access the multicast address list. Approved by: re (kib) MFC after: 6 weeks

It appears that the TDK LAK CD011 works with fe driver. I don't have

a dongle for the card, but it passes the sanity testsin the probe/attach routines and returns the correct MAC address.

Generalize the workaround for the Hitachi HT-4840-11. The Contec

C-NET(PC) has a cfe at location 1 that has both an odd irq mask (it matches pc98 machines, so maybe it was a flag for pc98 operation) as well as a memory map. Since this driver doesn't know how to cope, we start with cfe2, which is purely an I/O space mapped and that seems to make it work. I say 'seems' here, because the card I have doesn't seem to have the right dongle for full testing...

Fix the whitespace in this file to be consistent with itself and with

Add support for Hitachi HT-4840-11. This card is supposedly just like

the J181, but not quite. This card's CIS has some quirks that means we have to ignore CFE's 1-9.

from the softc. - Rework the watchdog timer to match other NIC drivers: - Start a timer in fe_init() that runs once a second and checks a counter in the softc that is identical to the deprecated 'if_timer'. - Just adjust the softc tx timeout value when sending packets instead of scheduling the timer. - Use IFQ_SET_MAXLEN().

- Add a mutex to the softc to protect the softc and device hardware. - Don't leak bus resources if if_alloc() fails during attach. - Setup the interrupt handler after calling ether_ifattach(). - Use a private timer to manage the transmit watchdog. Tested by: WATANABE Kazuhiro CQG00620 of nifty.ne.jp
