r200696:
  Add rudimentary WOL support. While I'm here remove enabling
  busmastering/memory address in resume path. Bus driver will handle
  that.

r200740:
  Swap VGE_TXQTIMER and VGE_RXQTIMER register definition. Pending
  timer for Tx queue is at 0x3E.

r200756:
  Correct fragment bit definition in comments.

r200758:
  VT6130 datasheet was wrong. If VT6130 receive a jumbo frame the
  controller will split the jumbo frame into multiple RX buffers.
  However it seems the hardware always dma the frame to 8 bytes
  boundary for the split frames. Only the first part of the fragment
  can have 4 byte alignment and subsequent buffers should be 8 bytes
  aligned. Change RX buffer the alignment requirement to 8 bytes from
  4 bytes.

r200759:
  Disable jumbo frame support for PCIe VT6130/VT6132 controllers.
  Quite contrary to VT6130 datasheet which says it supports up to 8K
  jumbo frame, VT6130 does not seem to send jumbo frame that is
  larger than 4K in length. Trying to send a frame that is larger
  than 4K cause TX MAC hang.
  Even though it's possible to allow 4K jumbo frame for VT6130, I
  think it's meaningless to allow 4K jumbo frame. I'm not sure VT6132
  also has the same limitation but I guess it uses the same MAC of
  VT6130.

r200972:
  Remove wrong assertion.

<id>urn:sha1:6f311c868241531cf23698ca951d6c8661f3ef67</id>
<content type='text'>
  Implement interrupt moderation scheme supported by VT61xx
  controllers. TX/RX interrupt mitigation is controlled by
  VGE_TXSUPPTHR and VGE_RXSUPPTHR register. These registers suppress
  generation of interrupts until the programmed frames counter equals
  to the registers. VT61xx also supports interrupt hold off timer
  register. If this interrupt hold off timer is active all interrupts
  would be disabled until the timer reaches to 0. The timer value is
  reloaded whenever VGE_ISR register written. The timer resolution is
  about 20us.

  Previously vge(4) used single shot timer to reduce Tx completion
  interrupts. This required VGE_CRS1 register access in Tx
  start/completion handler to rearm new timeout value and it did not
  show satisfactory result(more than 50k interrupts under load). Rx
  interrupts was not moderated at all such that vge(4) used to
  generate too many interrupts which in turn made polling(4) better
  approach under high network load.

  This change activates all interrupt moderation mechanism and
  initial values were tuned to generate interrupt less than 8k per
  second. That number of interrupts wouldn't add additional packet
  latencies compared to polling(4). These interrupt parameters could
  be changed with sysctl.
  dev.vge.%d.int_holdoff
  dev.vge.%d.rx_coal_pkt
  dev.vge.%d.tx_coal_pkt
  Interface has be brought down and up again before change take
  effect.

  With interrupt moderation there is no more need to loop in
  interrupt handler. This loop always added one more register access.
  While I'm here remove dead code which tried to implement subset of
  interrupt moderation.

r200616:
  Add new flag VGE_FLAG_SUSPENDED to mark suspended state and
  remove suspended member in softc.

r200617:
  Add "Velocity" to probe message which will make it clearer which
  ethernet controller was recognized. VIA consistently calls
  "Velocity" family for gigabit ethernet controllers. For fast
  ethernet controllers they uses "Rhine" family(vr(4) controllers))
  and vr(4) already shows "Rhine" in probe message.

  Remove unused VGE_ETHER_ALIGN definition.

r200639:
  Actually clear interrupts. Writing 0 has no effect.

r200551:
  Whenever link state change interrupt is raised, vge_tick() is
  called and vge(4) used to drive auto-negotiation timer(mii_tick) in
  vge_tick(). Therefore the mii_tick was not called for every hz such
  that auto-negotiation complete was never handled in vge(4).
  Use mii_pollstat to extract current negotiated speed/duplex instead
  of mii_tick. The latter is valid only for auto-negotiation case.
  While I'm here change the confusing function name vge_tick() to
  vge_link_statchg().

r200552:
  Report media change result to caller instead of returning success
  without regard to the result.

r200555:
  Don't report current link status if interface is not UP.
  If interface is not UP, the current link status wouldn't
  reflect the negotiated status.

r200558:
  Tell upper layer vge(4) supports long frames. This should be done
  after ether_ifattach(), as ether_ifattach() initializes it with
  ETHER_HDR_LEN.
  While I'm here remove setting if_mtu, it's already handled in
  ether_ifattach().

r200609:
  All vge(4) controllers support RX/TX checksum offloading for VLAN
  tagged frames so add checksum offloading capabilities. Also add
  missing VLAN hardware tagging control in ioctl handler and let
  upper stack know current VLAN capabilities.

r200613:
  Rewrite RX filter setup and simplify code.
  Now promiscuous mode and multicast handling is performed in single
  function, vge_rxfilter().

r200538:
  Introduce vge_flags member in softc. The vge_flags member will
  record device specific bits. Remove vge_link and use vge_flags.
  While here, move clearing link state before mii_mediachg() as
  mii_mediachg() may affect link state.

r200540:
  Save PHY address by reading VGE_MIICFG register. For PCIe
  controllers(VT613x), we assume the PHY address is 1.
  Use the saved PHY address in MII register access routines and
  remove accessing VGE_MIICFG register.
  While I'm here save PCI express capability register which will be
  used in near future.

r200541:
  Add MSI support for VT613x controllers.

r200543:
  Increase output queue size from 64 to 255.

r200545:
  We don't have to reload EEPROM in vge_reset(). Because vge_reset()
  is called in vge_init_lock(), vge(4) always used to reload EEPROM.
  Also add more comment why vge(4) clears VGE_CHIPCFG0_PACPI bit.
  While I'm here add missing new line in vge_reset().

r200548:
  Sort function prototyes.

r200526:
  Use PCIR_BAR instead of hard-coded value.

r200527:
  Fix typo in register definition.

r200529:
  Clear VGE_TXDESC_Q bit for transmitted frames. The VGE_TXDESC_Q bit
  seems to work like a tag that indicates 'not list end' of queued
  frames. Without having a VGE_TXDESC_Q bit indicates 'list end'. So
  the last frame of multiple queued frames has no VGE_TXDESC_Q bit.
  The hardware has peculiar behavior for VGE_TXDESC_Q bit handling.
  If the VGE_TXDESC_Q bit of descriptor was set the controller would
  fetch next descriptor. However if next descriptor's OWN bit was
  cleared but VGE_TXDESC_Q was set, it could confuse controller.
  Clearing VGE_TXDESC_Q bit for transmitted frames ensure correct
  behavior.

r200531:
  Use ANSI function definations.

r200532:
  Remove unnecessary return statement.

<id>urn:sha1:bce2400f8c380dede12d1b817f3e0012698c2c1d</id>
<content type='text'>
  Overhaul bus_dma(9) usage and fix various things.
   o Separate TX/RX buffer DMA tag from TX/RX descriptor ring DMA tag.
   o Separate RX buffer DMA tag from common buffer DMA tag. RX DMA
     tag has different restriction compared to TX DMA tag.
   o Add 40bit DMA address support.
   o Adjust TX/RX descriptor ring alignment to 64 bytes from 256
     bytes as documented in datasheet.
   o Added check to ensure TX/RX ring reside within a 4GB boundary.
     Since TX/RX ring shares the same high address register they
     should have the same high address.
   o TX/RX side bus_dmamap_load_mbuf_sg(9) support.
   o Add lock assertion to vge_setmulti().
   o Add RX spare DMA map to recover from DMA map load failure.
   o Add optimized RX buffer handler, vge_discard_rxbuf which is
     activated when vge(4) sees bad frames.
   o Don't blindly update VGE_RXDESC_RESIDUECNT register. Datasheet
     says the register should be updated only when number of
     available RX descriptors are multiple of 4.
   o Use __NO_STRICT_ALIGNMENT instead of defining VGE_FIXUP_RX which
     is only set for i386 architecture. Previously vge(4) also
     performed expensive copy operation to align IP header on amd64.
     This change should give RX performance boost on amd64
     architecture.
   o Don't reinitialize controller if driver is already running. This
     should reduce number of link state flipping.
   o Since vge(4) drops a driver lock before passing received frame
     to upper layer, make sure vge(4) is still running after
     re-acquiring driver lock.
   o Add second argument count to vge_rxeof(). The argument will
     limit number of packets could be processed in RX handler.
   o Rearrange vge_rxeof() not to allocate RX buffer if received
     frame was bad packet.
   o Removed if_printf that prints DMA map failure. This type of
     message shouldn't be used in fast path of driver.
   o Reduce number of allowed TX buffer fragments to 6 from 7. A TX
     descriptor allows 7 fragments of a frame. However the CMZ field
     of descriptor has just 3bits and the controller wants to see
     fragment + 1 in the field. So if we have 7 fragments the field
     value would be 0 which seems to cause unexpected results under
     certain conditions. This change should fix occasional TX hang
     observed on vge(4).
   o Simplify vge_stat_locked() and add number of available TX
     descriptor check.
   o vge(4) controllers lack padding short frames. Make sure to fill
     zero for the padded bytes. This closes unintended information
     disclosure.
   o Don't set VGE_TDCTL_JUMBO flag. Datasheet is not clear whether
     this bit should be set by driver or write-back status bit after
     transmission. At least vendor's driver does not set this bit so
     remove it. Without this bit vge(4) still can send jumbo frames.
   o Don't start driver when vge(4) know there are not enough RX
     buffers.
   o Remove volatile keyword in RX descriptor structure. This should
     be handled by bus_dma(9).
   o Collapse two 16bits member of TX/RX descriptor into single 32bits
     member.
   o Reduce number of RX descriptors to 252 from 256. The
     VGE_RXDESCNUM is 16bits register but only lower 8bits are valid.
     So the maximum number of RX descriptors would be 255. However
     the number of should be multiple of 4 as controller wants to
     update 4 RX descriptors at a time. This limits the maximum
     number of RX descriptor to be 252.

Partial merge r198987:
  Use device_printf() and if_printf() instead of printf() with an explicit
  unit number and remove 'unit' members from softc.

Partial merge r199414:
  Use the bus_*() routines rather than bus_space_*() for register operations.

r199543:
  Several fixes to this driver:
  - Overhaul the locking to avoid recursion and add missing locking in a few
    places.
  - Don't schedule a task to call vge_start() from contexts that are safe to
    call vge_start() directly.  Just invoke the routine directly instead
    (this is what all of the other NIC drivers I am familiar with do).  Note
    that vge(4) does not use an interrupt filter handler which is the primary
    reason some other drivers use tasks.
  - Add a new private timer to drive the watchdog timer instead of using
    if_watchdog and if_timer.
  - Fixup detach by calling ether_ifdetach() before stopping the interface.

r200422:
  Remove driver lock assertion in MII register access. This change
  was made in r199543 to remove MTX_RECURSE. These routines can be
  called in device attach phase(e.g. mii_phy_probe()) so checking
  assertion here is not right as caller does not hold a driver lock.
