# 295906 22-Feb-2016 marius

Fix and clean up usage of DMA and TSO segments:
- At Intel it is believed that most of their products support "only"
40 DMA segments so lower {EM,IGB}_MAX_SCATTER accordingly. Actually,
40 is more than plenty to handle full size TSO packets so it doesn't
make sense to further distinguish between MAC variants that really
can do 64 DMA segments. Moreover, capping at 40 DMA segments limits
the stack usage of {em,igb}_xmit() that - given the rare use of more
than these - previously hardly was justifiable, while still being
sufficient to avoid the problems seen with em(4) and EM_MAX_SCATTER
set to 32.
- In igb(4), pass the actually supported TSO parameters up the stack.
Previously, the defaults set in if_attach_internal() were applied,
i. e. a maximum of 35 TSO segments, which made supporting more than
these in the driver pointless. However, this might explain why no
problems were seen with IGB_MAX_SCATTER at 64.
- In em(4), take the 5 m_pullup(9) invocations performed by em_xmit()
in the TSO case into account when reporting TSO parameters upwards.
In the worst case, each of these calls will add another mbuf and,
thus, the requirement for an additional DMA segment. So for best
performance, it doesn't make sense to advertize a maximum of TSO
segments that typically will require defragmentation in em_xmit().
Again, this leaves enough room to handle full size TSO packets.
- Drop TSO macros from if_lem.h given that corresponding MACS don't
support TSO in the first place.

# 271784 18-Sep-2014 adrian

Fix the handling of EOP in status descriptors for if_igb(4) and don't
double-free mbufs.

Like ixgbe(4) chipsets, EOP is only set on the final descriptor
in a chain of descriptors. So, to free the whole list of descriptors,
we should free the current slot _and_ the assembled list of descriptors
that make up the fragment list.

The existing code was setting discard once it saw EOP + an error status;
it then freed all the subsequent descriptors until the next EOP. That's
totally the wrong order.

# 240968 26-Sep-2012 jhb

Merge similar fixes from 223198 from igb to ixgbe:
- Use a dedicated task to handle deferred transmits from the if_transmit
method instead of reusing the existing per-queue interrupt task.
Reusing the per-queue interrupt task could result in both an interrupt
thread and the taskqueue thread trying to handle received packets on a
single queue resulting in out-of-order packet processing and lock
contention.
- Don't define ixgbe_start() at all where if_transmit is used.

# 228788 21-Dec-2011 jhb

Restore the sysctl changes from 223676 and 227309 lost in the previous
import:
- Add read-only sysctls for all of the tunables supported by the igb and
em drivers.
- Make the per-instance 'enable_aim' sysctl truly per-instance by having it
change a per-instance variable (which is used to control AIM) rather
than having all of the per-instance sysctls operate on a single global
variable.

While here, restore the previously existing hw.igb.rx_processing_limit
tunable as it is very useful to be able to set a default tunable that
applies to all adapters in the system.


# 228387 10-Dec-2011 jfv

Part 2 of 2 New deltas for the 1G drivers.

There have still been intermittent problems with apparent TX
hangs for some customers. These have been problematic to reproduce
but I believe these changes will address them. Testing on a number
of fronts have been positive.

EM: there is an important 'chicken bit' fix for 82574 in the shared
code this is supported in the core here.
- The TX path has been tightened up to improve performance. In
particular UDP with jumbo frames was having problems, and the
changes here have improved that.
- OACTIVE has been used more carefully on the theory that some
hangs may be due to a problem in this interaction
- Problems with the RX init code, the "lazy" allocation and
ring initialization has been found to cause problems in some
newer client systems, and as it really is not that big a win
(its not in a hot path) it seems best to remove it.
- HWTSO was broken when VLAN HWTAGGING or HWFILTER is used, I
found this was due to an error in setting up the descriptors
in em_xmit.

IGB:
- TX is also improved here. With multiqueue I realized its very
important to handle OACTIVE only under the CORE lock so there
are no races between the queues.
- Flow Control handling was broken in a couple ways, I have changed
and I hope improved that in this delta.
- UDP also had a problem in the TX path here, it was change to
improve that.
- On some hardware, with the driver static, a weird stray interrupt
seems to sometimes fire and cause a panic in the RX mbuf refresh
code. This is addressed by setting interrupts late in the init
path, and also to set all interrupts bits off at the start of that.


# 223676 29-Jun-2011 jhb

- Add read-only sysctls for all of the tunables supported by the igb and
em drivers.
- Make the per-instance 'enable_aim' sysctl truly per-instance by having it
change a per-instance variable (which is used to control AIM) rather

# 223350 20-Jun-2011 jfv

Eliminate some global tuneables in favor of adapter-specific,
particular flow control and dma coalesce. Also improve the
sysctl operation on those too.

Add IPv6 detection in the ioctl code, this was done for
ixgbe first, carrying that over.

Add resource ability to disable particular adapter.

Add HW TSO capability so vlans can make use of TSO


# 223198 17-Jun-2011 jhb

- Use a dedicated task to handle deferred transmits from the if_transmit
method instead of reusing the existing per-queue interrupt task.
Reusing the per-queue interrupt task could result in both an interrupt
thread and the taskqueue thread trying to handle received packets on a
single queue resulting in out-of-order packet processing.
- Don't define igb_start() at all on 8.0 and where if_transmit is used.
Replace last remaining call to igb_start() with a loop to kick off
transmit on each queue instead.
- Call ether_ifdetach() earlier in igb_detach().
- Drain tasks and free taskqueues during igb_detach().

# 221187 28-Apr-2011 jfv

Small change to make backporting to stable/7,
thanks to Arnaud Lacombe for suggesting it.


# 220375 05-Apr-2011 jfv

Important update for the igb driver:
- Add the change made in em to the actual unrefreshed number
of descriptors is used as a basis in rxeof on the way out
to determine if more refresh is needed. NOTE: there is a
difference in the ring setup in igb, this is not accidental,
it is necessitated by hardware behavior, when you reset the
newer adapters it will not let you write RDH, it ALWAYS sets
it to 0. Thus the way em does it is not possible.
- Change the sysctl handling of flow control, it will now make
the change dynamically when the variable setting changes rather
than requiring a reset.
- Change the eee sysctl naming, validation found the old unintuitive :)
- Last but not least, some important performance tweaks in the TX
path, I found that UDP behavior could be drastically hindered or
improved with just small changes in the start loop. What I have
here is what testing has shown to be the best overall. Its interesting
to note that changing the clean threshold to start at a full half of
the ring, made a BIG difference in performance. I hope that this
will prove to be advantageous for most workloads.

# 219753 18-Mar-2011 jfv

This delta updates the em driver to version 7.2.2 which has
been undergoing test for some weeks. This improves the RX
mbuf handling to avoid system hang due to depletion. Thanks
to all those who have been testing the code, and to Beezar
Liu for the design changes.

Next the igb driver is updated for similar RX changes, but
also to add new features support for our upcoming i350 family
of adapters.

MFC after a week


# 218530 10-Feb-2011 jfv

Add support for the new I350 family of 1G interfaces.
- this also includes virtualization support on these devices

Correct some vlan issues we were seeing in test, jumbo frames on vlans
did not work correctly, this was all due to confused logic around HW
filters, the new code should now work for all uses.

Important fix: when mbuf resources are depeleted, it was possible to
completely empty the RX ring, and then the RX engine would stall
forever. This is fixed by a flag being set whenever the refresh code
fails due to an mbuf shortage, also the local timer now makes sure
that all queues get an interrupt when it runs, the interrupt code
will then always call rxeof, and in that routine the first thing done
is now to check the refresh flag and call refresh_mbufs. This has been
verified to fix this type 'hang'. Similar code will follow in the other
drivers.

Finally, sync up shared code for the I350 support.

Thanks to everyone that has been reporting issues, and helping in the
debug/test process!!


# 215781 23-Nov-2010 jfv

- New 82580 devices supported
- Fixes from John Baldwin: vlan shadow tables made per/interface,
make vlan hw setup only happen when capability enabled, and
finally, make a tuneable interrupt rate. Thanks John!
- Tweaked watchdog handling to avoid any false positives, now
detection is in the TX clean path, with only the final check
and init happening in the local timer.
- limit queues to 8 for all devices, with 82576 or 82580 on
larger machines it can get greater than this, and it seems
mostly a resource waste to do so. Even 8 might be high but
it can be manually reduced.
- use 2k, 4k and now 9k clusters based on the MTU size.
- rework the igb_refresh_mbuf() code, its important to
make sure the descriptor is rewritten even when reusing
mbufs since writeback clobbers things.

# 211913 27-Aug-2010 yongari

Do not allocate multicast array memory in multicast filter
configuration function. For failed memory allocations, em(4)/lem(4)
called panic(9) which is not acceptable on production box.
igb(4)/ixgb(4)/ix(4) allocated the required memory in stack which
consumed 768 bytes of stack memory which looks too big.

attach time and make multicast configuration success under any
conditions. This change also removes the excessive use of memory in

# 209611 30-Jun-2010 jfv

SR-IOV support added to igb

What this provides is support for the 'virtual function'
interface that a FreeBSD VM may be assigned from a host
like KVM on Linux, or newer versions of Xen with such
support.

When the guest is set up with the capability, a special
limited function 82576 PCI device is present in its virtual
PCI space, so with this driver installed in the guest that
device will be detected and function nearly like the bare
metal, as it were.

The interface is only allowed a single queue in this configuration
however initial performance tests have looked very good.

Enjoy!!

# 205869 29-Mar-2010 jfv

Update to igb and em:

em revision 7.0.0:
- Using driver devclass, seperate legacy (pre-pcie) code
into a seperate source file. This will at least help
protect against regression issues. It compiles along
with em, and is transparent to end use, devices in each
appear to be 'emX'. When using em in a modular form this
also allows the legacy stuff to be defined out.
- Add tx and rx rings as in igb, in the 82574 this becomes
actual multiqueue for the first time (2 queues) while in
other PCIE adapters its just make code cleaner.
- Add RX mbuf handling logic that matches igb, this will
eliminate packet drops due to temporary mbuf shortage.

igb revision 1.9.3:
- Following the ixgbe code, use a new approach in what
was called 'get_buf', the routine now has been made
independent of rxeof, it now does the update to the
engine TDT register, this design allows temporary
mbuf resources to become non-critical, not requiring
a packet to be discarded, instead it just returns and
does not increment the tail pointer.
- With the above change it was also unnecessary to keep
'spare' maps around, since we do not have the discard
issue.
- Performance tweaks and improvements to the code also.

MFC after: ASAP


# 178523 25-Apr-2008 jfv

This delta has a few important items:

PR 122839 is fixed in both em and in igb

Second, the issue on building modules since the static kernel
build changes is now resolved. I was not able to get the fancier
directory hierarchy working, but this works, both em and igb
build as modules now.

Third, there is now support in em for two new NICs, Hartwell
(or 82574) is a low cost PCIE dual port adapter that has MSIX,
for this release it uses 3 vectors only, RX, TX, and LINK. In
the next release I will add a second TX and RX queue. Also, there
is support here for ICH10, the followon to ICH9. Both of these are
early releases, general availability will follow soon.

Fourth: On Hartwell and ICH10 we now have IEEE 1588 PTP support,
I have implemented this in a provisional way so that early adopters
may try and comment on the functionality. The IOCTL structure may
change. This feature is off by default, you need to edit the Makefile
and add the EM_TIMESYNC define to get the code.

Enjoy all!!


# 176667 29-Feb-2008 jfv

This change introduces a split to the Intel E1000 driver, now rather than
just em, there is an igb driver (this follows behavior with our Linux drivers).
All adapters up to the 82575 are supported in em, and new client/desktop support
will continue to be in that adapter.

The igb driver is for new server NICs like the 82575 and its followons.
Advanced features for virtualization and performance will be in this driver.

Also, both drivers now have shared code that is up to the latest we have
released. Some stylistic changes as well.

Enjoy :)
