netmap: align codebase to the current upstream (sha 8374e1a7e6941) Changelist: - Move large parts of VALE code to a new file and header netmap_bdg.[ch]. This is useful to reuse the code within upcoming projects. - Improvements and bug fixes to pipes and monitors. - Introduce nm_os_onattach(), nm_os_onenter() and nm_os_onexit() to handle differences between FreeBSD and Linux. - Introduce some new helper functions to handle more host rings and fake rings (netmap_all_rings(), netmap_real_rings(), ...) - Added new sysctl to enable/disable hw checksum in emulated netmap mode. - nm_inject: add support for NS_MOREFRAG Approved by: re (gjb)

netmap: align codebase to the current upstream (commit id 3fb001303718146)

2018-04-12T07:20:50Z

Changelist: - Turn tx_rings and rx_rings arrays into arrays of pointers to kring structs. This patch includes fixes for ixv, ixl, ix, re, cxgbe, iflib, vtnet and ptnet drivers to cope with the change. - Generalize the nm_config() callback to accept a struct containing many parameters. - Introduce NKR_FAKERING to support buffers sharing (used for netmap pipes) - Improved API for external VALE modules. - Various bug fixes and improvements to the netmap memory allocator, including support for externally (userspace) allocated memory. - Refactoring of netmap pipes: now linked rings share the same netmap buffers, with a separate set of kring pointers (rhead, rcur, rtail). Buffer swapping does not need to happen anymore. - Large refactoring of the control API towards an extensible solution; the goal is to allow the addition of more commands and extension of existing ones (with new options) without the need of hacks or the risk of running out of configuration space. A new NIOCCTRL ioctl has been added to handle all the requests of the new control API, which cover all the functionalities so far supported. The netmap API bumps from 11 to 12 with this patch. Full backward compatibility is provided for the old control command (NIOCREGIF), by means of a new netmap_legacy module. Many parts of the old netmap.h header has now been moved to netmap_legacy.h (included by netmap.h). Approved by: hrs (mentor)

netmap: align codebase to upstream version v11.4

2018-04-09T09:24:26Z

Changelist: - remove unused nkr_slot_flags - new nm_intr adapter callback to enable/disable interrupts - remove unused sysctls and document the other sysctls - new infrastructure to support NS_MOREFRAG for NIC ports - support for external memory allocator (for now linux-only), including linux-specific changes in common headers - optimizations within netmap pipes datapath - improvements on VALE control API - new nm_parse() helper function in netmap_user.h - various bug fixes and code clean up Approved by: hrs (mentor)

sys/dev: further adoption of SPDX licensing ID tags.

2017-11-27T14:52:40Z

Mainly focus on files that use BSD 2-Clause license, however the tool I was using misidentified many licenses so this was mostly a manual - error prone - task. The Software Package Data Exchange (SPDX) group provides a specification to make it easier for automated tools to detect and summarize well known opensource licenses. We are gradually adopting the specification, noting that the tags are considered only advisory and do not, in any way, superceed or replace the license texts.

sys/dev: Replace zero with NULL for pointers.

2017-02-20T03:43:12Z

Makes things easier to read, plus architectures may set NULL to something different than zero. Found with: devel/coccinelle MFC after: 3 weeks

Various fixes for ptnet/ptnetmap (passthrough of netmap ports). In detail:

2016-10-27T09:46:22Z

- use PCI_VENDOR and PCI_DEVICE ids from a publicly allocated range (thanks to RedHat) - export memory pool information through PCI registers - improve mechanism for configuring passthrough on different hypervisors Code is from Vincenzo Maffione as a follow up to his GSOC work.
