Revert r330897:

This was intended to be a non-functional change. It wasn't. The commit
message was thus wrong. In addition it broke arm, and merged crypto
related code.

Revert with prejudice.

This revert skips files touched in r316370 since that commit was since
MFCed. This revert also skips files that require $FreeBSD$ property
changes.

Thank you to those who helped me get out of this mess including but not

# 329833 22-Feb-2018 rpokala

MFC r329295:

Panasas discovered that ioctl(SIOCGLAGGPORT) returns ENOTTY for mxge(4) when
the NIC is not a member of a lagg. This came as a surprise, because the
SIOCGLAGGPORT handler in if_lagg.c only returns ENOENT (if run against the
laggX interface, rather than a physical port) or EINVAL (if run against a
non-member physical port). This behavior was not seen with other drivers,
such as bge(4), igb(4), and cxl(4). When I compared their respective ioctl
handlers, I found that they all called ether_ioctl() for the default (i.e.
unhandled) case; by contrast, mxge(4) only calls ether_ioctl() for two
specific cases, and returns ENOTTY for the default case.

Remove the two cases which explicitly call ether_ioctl(), and let the
default case call it instead. This matches what the vast majority of the NIC
drivers do.

# 297000 17-Mar-2016 jhibbits

Use uintmax_t (typedef'd to rman_res_t type) for rman ranges.

On some architectures, u_long isn't large enough for resource definitions.
Particularly, powerpc and arm allow 36-bit (or larger) physical addresses, but
type `long' is only 32-bit. This extends rman's resources to uintmax_t. With
this change, any resource can feasibly be placed anywhere in physical memory
(within the constraints of the driver).

Why uintmax_t and not something machine dependent, or uint64_t? Though it's
possible for uintmax_t to grow, it's highly unlikely it will become 128-bit on
32-bit architectures. 64-bit architectures should have plenty of RAM to absorb
the increase on resource sizes if and when this occurs, and the number of
resources on memory-constrained systems should be sufficiently small as to not
pose a drastic overhead. That being said, uintmax_t was chosen for source
clarity. If it's specified as uint64_t, all printf()-like calls would either
need casts to uintmax_t, or be littered with PRI*64 macros. Casts to uintmax_t
aren't horrible, but it would also bake into the API for
resource_list_print_type() either a hidden assumption that entries get cast to
uintmax_t for printing, or these calls would need the PRI*64 macros. Since
source code is meant to be read more often than written, I chose the clearest
path of simply using uintmax_t.

Tested on a PowerPC p5020-based board, which places all device resources in
0xfxxxxxxxx, and has 8GB RAM.
Regression tested on qemu-system-i386

# 294327 19-Jan-2016 hselasky

Add optimizing LRO wrapper:

- Add optimizing LRO wrapper which pre-sorts all incoming packets
according to the hash type and flowid. This prevents exhaustion of
the LRO entries due to too many connections at the same time.
Testing using a larger number of higher bandwidth TCP connections
showed that the incoming ACK packet aggregation rate increased from
~1.3:1 to almost 3:1. Another test showed that for a number of TCP
connections greater than 16 per hardware receive ring, where 8 TCP
connections was the LRO active entry limit, there was a significant
improvement in throughput due to being able to fully aggregate more
than 8 TCP stream. For very few very high bandwidth TCP streams, the
optimizing LRO wrapper will add CPU usage instead of reducing CPU
usage. This is expected. Network drivers which want to use the
optimizing LRO wrapper needs to call "tcp_lro_queue_mbuf()" instead
of "tcp_lro_rx()" and "tcp_lro_flush_all()" instead of
"tcp_lro_flush()". Further the LRO control structure must be
initialized using "tcp_lro_init_args()" passing a non-zero number
into the "lro_mbufs" argument.

- Make LRO statistics 64-bit. Previously 32-bit integers were used for
statistics which can be prone to wrap-around. Fix this while at it
and update all SYSCTL's which expose LRO statistics.

- Ensure all data is freed when destroying a LRO control structures,
especially leftover LRO entries.

- Reduce number of memory allocations needed when setting up a LRO
control structure by precomputing the total amount of memory needed.

- Add own memory allocation counter for LRO.

- Bump the FreeBSD version to force recompilation of all KLDs due to
change of the LRO control structure size.

# 275358 01-Dec-2014 hselasky

Start process of removing the use of the deprecated "M_FLOWID" flag
from the FreeBSD network code. The flag is still kept around in the
"sys/mbuf.h" header file, but does no longer have any users. Instead
the "m_pkthdr.rsstype" field in the mbuf structure is now used to
decide the meaning of the "m_pkthdr.flowid" field. To modify the
"m_pkthdr.rsstype" field please use the existing "M_HASHTYPE_XXX"
macros as defined in the "sys/mbuf.h" header file.

This patch introduces new behaviour in the transmit direction.
Previously network drivers checked if "M_FLOWID" was set in "m_flags"
before using the "m_pkthdr.flowid" field. This check has now now been
replaced by checking if "M_HASHTYPE_GET(m)" is different from
"M_HASHTYPE_NONE". In the future more hashtypes will be added, for
example hashtypes for hardware dedicated flows.

"M_HASHTYPE_OPAQUE" indicates that the "m_pkthdr.flowid" value is
valid and has no particular type. This change removes the need for an
"if" statement in TCP transmit code checking for the presence of a
valid flowid value. The "if" statement mentioned above is now a direct
variable assignment which is then later checked by the respective
network drivers like before.

Additional notes:
- The SCTP code changes will be committed as a separate patch.
- Removal of the "M_FLOWID" flag will also be done separately.
- The FreeBSD version has been bumped.

# 273377 21-Oct-2014 hselasky

Fix multiple incorrect SYSCTL arguments in the kernel:

- Wrong integer type was specified.

- Wrong or missing "access" specifier. The "access" specifier
sometimes included the SYSCTL type, which it should not, except for
procedural SYSCTL nodes.

- Logical OR where binary OR was expected.

- Properly assert the "access" argument passed to all SYSCTL macros,
using the CTASSERT macro. This applies to both static- and dynamically
created SYSCTLs.

- Properly assert the the data type for both static and dynamic
SYSCTLs. In the case of static SYSCTLs we only assert that the data
pointed to by the SYSCTL data pointer has the correct size, hence
there is no easy way to assert types in the C language outside a
C-function.

- Rewrote some code which doesn't pass a constant "access" specifier
when creating dynamic SYSCTL nodes, which is now a requirement.

- Updated "EXAMPLES" section in SYSCTL manual page.

# 263102 13-Mar-2014 glebius

Since 32-bit if_baudrate isn't enough to describe a baud rate of a 10 Gbit
interface, in the r241616 a crutch was provided. It didn't work well, and
finally we decided that it is time to break ABI and simply make if_baudrate
a 64-bit value. Meanwhile, the entire struct if_data was reviewed.

o Remove the if_baudrate_pf crutch.

o Make all fields of struct if_data fixed machine independent size. The
notion of data (packet counters, etc) are by no means MD. And it is a
bug that on amd64 we've got a 64-bit counters, while on i386 32-bit,
which at modern speeds overflow within a second.

This also removes quite a lot of COMPAT_FREEBSD32 code.

o Give 16 bit for the ifi_datalen field. This field was provided to
make future changes to if_data less ABI breaking. Unfortunately the
8 bit size of it had effectively limited sizeof if_data to 256 bytes.

o Give 32 bits to ifi_mtu and ifi_metric.
o Give 64 bits to the rest of fields, since they are counters.

__FreeBSD_version bumped.

# 254263 12-Aug-2013 scottl

Update PCI drivers to no longer look at the MEMIO-enabled bit in the PCI
command register. The lazy BAR allocation code in FreeBSD sometimes
disables this bit when it detects a range conflict, and will re-enable
it on demand when a driver allocates the BAR. Thus, the bit is no longer
a reliable indication of capability, and should not be checked. This
results in the elimination of a lot of code from drivers, and also gives
the opportunity to simplify a lot of drivers to use a helper API to set
the busmaster enable bit.

This changes fixes some recent reports of disk controllers and their
associated drives/enclosures disappearing during boot.

# 241037 28-Sep-2012 glebius

The drbr(9) API appeared to be so unclear, that most drivers in
tree used it incorrectly, which lead to inaccurate overrated
if_obytes accounting. The drbr(9) used to update ifnet stats on
drbr_enqueue(), which is not accurate since enqueuing doesn't
imply successful processing by driver. Dequeuing neither mean
that. Most drivers also called drbr_stats_update() which did
accounting again, leading to doubled if_obytes statistics. And
in case of severe transmitting, when a packet could be several
times enqueued and dequeued it could have been accounted several
times.

o Thus, make drbr(9) API thinner. Now drbr(9) merely chooses between
ALTQ queueing or buf_ring(9) queueing.
- It doesn't touch the buf_ring stats any more.
- It doesn't touch ifnet stats anymore.
- drbr_stats_update() no longer exists.

o buf_ring(9) handles its stats itself:
- It handles br_drops itself.
- br_prod_bytes stats are dropped. Rationale: no one ever
reads them but update of a common counter on every packet
negatively affects performance due to excessive cache
invalidation.
- buf_ring_enqueue_bytes() reduced to buf_ring_enqueue(), since
we no longer account bytes.

o Drivers handle their stats theirselves: if_obytes, if_omcasts.

o mlx4(4), igb(4), em(4), vxge(4), oce(4) and ixv(4) no longer
use drbr_stats_update(), and update ifnet stats theirselves.

o bxe(4) was the most correct driver, it didn't call
drbr_stats_update(), thus it was the only driver accurate under
moderate load. Now it also maintains stats itself.

o ixgbe(4) had already taken stats from hardware, so just
- drop software stats updating.
- take multicast packet count from hardware as well.

o mxge(4) just no longer needs NO_SLOW_STATS define.

o cxgb(4), cxgbe(4) need no change, since they obtain stats
from hardware.

Fix a TSO checksum bug on mxge(4):

The Myri10GE NIC will assume all TSO frames contain partial checksum,
and will emit TSO segments with bad TCP checksums if a TSO frame
contains a full checksum. The mxge driver takes care to make sure
that TSO is disabled when checksum offload is disabled for this
reason. However, modules that modify packet contents (like pf) may
end up completing a checksum on a TSO frame, leading to the NIC emitting
TSO segments with bad checksums.

To workaround this, restore the partial checksum in the mxge driver
when we're fed a TSO frame with a full checksum.

# 197645 30-Sep-2009 gallatin

Two more mxge watchdog fixes:

1) Restore the PCI Express control register after a watchdog
reset. This is required because the device will come out
of watchdog reset with the pectl reg at its default state,
and important BIOS configuration (like max payload size)
could be lost.

2) Call mxge_start_locked() for every tx queue before dropping
the lock in the watchdog handler. This is required, as
the queue's buf ring may have filled during the reset.


# 197395 21-Sep-2009 gallatin

Improve mxge watchdog routine's ability to reliably reset a failed NIC:

- Mark the link as down, so if watchdog reset fails, link watching
failover software can notice it
- Don't send MXGEFW_CMD_ETHERNET_DOWN if the NIC has been reset, it is
not needed, and will fail on a freshly reset NIC.
- Ensure the transmit routines aren't attempting to PIO write to doorbells
while the NIC is being reset.
- Download the correct f/w, rather than using the EEPROM f/w after reset.
- Export a count of the number of watchdog resets via sysctl
- Zero all f/w stats at reset. This will lead to less confusing
diagnostic output when investigating NIC failures.

# 168191 31-Mar-2007 jhb

Optimize sx locks to use simple atomic operations for the common cases of
obtaining and releasing shared and exclusive locks. The algorithms for
manipulating the lock cookie are very similar to that rwlocks. This patch
also adds support for exclusive locks using the same algorithm as mutexes.

A new sx_init_flags() function has been added so that optional flags can be
specified to alter a given locks behavior. The flags include SX_DUPOK,
SX_NOWITNESS, SX_NOPROFILE, and SX_QUITE which are all identical in nature
to the similar flags for mutexes.

Adaptive spinning on select locks may be enabled by enabling the
ADAPTIVE_SX kernel option. Only locks initialized with the SX_ADAPTIVESPIN
flag via sx_init_flags() will adaptively spin.

The common cases for sx_slock(), sx_sunlock(), sx_xlock(), and sx_xunlock()
are now performed inline in non-debug kernels. As a result, <sys/sx.h> now
requires <sys/lock.h> to be included prior to <sys/sx.h>.

The new kernel option SX_NOINLINE can be used to disable the aforementioned
inlining in non-debug kernels.

The size of struct sx has changed, so the kernel ABI is probably greatly
disturbed.

# 166756 15-Feb-2007 luigi

Cleanup and document the implementation of firmware(9) based on
a version that i posted earlier on the -current mailing list,
and subsequent feedback received.

The core of the change is just in sys/firmware.h and kern/subr_firmware.c,
while other files are just adaptation of the clients to the ABI change
(const-ification of some parameters and hiding of internal info,
so this is fully compatible at the binary level).

In detail:
- reduce the amount of information exported to clients in struct firmware,
and constify the pointer;

- internally, document and simplify the implementation of the various
functions, and make sure error conditions are dealt with properly.

The diffs are large, but the code is really straightforward now (i hope).

Note also that there is a subtle issue with the implementation of
firmware_register(): currently, as in the previous version, we just
store a reference to the 'imagename' argument, but we should rather
copy it because there is no guarantee that this is a static string.
I realised this while testing this code, but i prefer to fix it in
a later commit -- there is no regression with respect to the past.

Note, too, that the version in RELENG_6 has various bugs including
missing locks around the module release calls, mishandling of modules
loaded by /boot/loader, and so on, so an MFC is absolutely necessary
there. I was just postponing it until this cleanup to avoid doing

fixes several bugs in the firmware's PCI-e implementation,
and it also changes the driver/firmware interface:

o TSO was added, and changed the format of the transmit
descriptors.
o The firmware no longer counts transmits descriptors,
but frames. So the driver needs to keep a count
of the number of frames sent.
o The weird interrupt strategy changed to a normal receive
return ring. This ring is much bigger, and we may be

o Myricom's header files changed the name of firmware
related #define's and enums (s/_MCP_/FW_).

- Stopped spamming the console with lots of printfs unless
mxge_verbose (or bootverbose) is set.

- Made additional information available via sysctl, including
the results of a PCI-e DMA benchmark run at device reset.

- Decreased the excessively long timeouts when sending commands
from 2 seconds to 20ms.

- Complete the myri10ge -> mxge name change by doing a mechanical
s/myri10ge/mxge/g replacement in the myri10ge files. A few contuation
lines were joined because of the regained columns.
- Hook the mxge driver back to the build.

Since DELAY() was moved, most <machine/clock.h> #includes have been
unnecessary.

10GbE mode driver and binary firmware for Myricom's PCI-express NICs.
More info regarding these nics can be found at http://www.myri.com.

Please note that the files
sys/dev/myri10ge/{mcp_gen_header.h,myri10ge_mcp.h} are internally
shared between all our drivers (solaris, macosx, windows, linux, etc).
I'd like to keep these files unchanged, so I can just import newer
versions of them when the firmware API/ABI changes. This means I'm
stuck with some of the crazy-long #define names, and possibly
non-style(9) characteristics of these files.

Many thanks to mlaier for doing firmware(9) just as I
needed it, and to scottl for his helpful review.
