# 331722 29-Mar-2018 eadler

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
limited to gonzo, kevans, rgrimes.

# 226995 01-Nov-2011 marius

- Import the common MII bitbang'ing code from NetBSD and convert drivers to
take advantage of it instead of duplicating it. This reduces the size of
the i386 GENERIC kernel by about 4k. The only potential in-tree user left
unconverted is xe(4), which generally should be changed to use miibus(4)
instead of implementing PHY handling on its own, as otherwise it makes not
much sense to add a dependency on miibus(4)/mii_bitbang(4) to xe(4) just
for the MII bitbang'ing code. The common MII bitbang'ing code also is
useful in the embedded space for using GPIO pins to implement MII access.
- Based on lessons learnt with dc(4) (see r185750), add bus barriers to the
MII bitbang read and write functions of the other drivers converted in
order to ensure the intended ordering. Given that register access via an
index register as well as register bank/window switching is subject to the
same problem, also add bus barriers to the respective functions of smc(4),
tl(4) and xl(4).
- Sprinkle some const.

Thanks to the following testers:
Andrew Bliznak (nge(4)), nwhitehorn@ (bm(4)), yongari@ (sis(4) and ste(4))
Thanks to Hans-Joerg Sirtl for supplying hardware to test stge(4).

# 200950 24-Dec-2009 yongari

Implement RX interrupt moderation using one-shot timer interrupt.
Unlike TX interrupt, ST201 does not provide any mechanism to
suppress RX interrupts. ste(4) can generate more than 70k RX
interrupts under heavy RX traffics such that these excessive
interrupts make system useless to process other useful things.
Maybe this was the major reason why polling support code was
introduced to ste(4).
The STE_COUNTDOWN register provides a programmable counter that
will generate an interrupt upon its expiration. We program
STE_DMACTL register to use 3.2us clock rate to drive the counter
register. Whenever ste(4) serves RX interrupt, the driver rearm
the timer to expire after STE_IM_RX_TIMER_DEFAULT time and disables
further generation of RX interrupts. This trick seems to work well
and ste(4) generates less than 8k RX interrupts even under 64 bytes
UDP torture test. Combined with TX interrupts, the total number of
interrupts are less than 10k which looks reasonable on heavily
loaded controller.

The default RX interrupt moderation time is 150us. Users can change
the value at any time with dev.ste.%d.int_rx_mod sysctl node.
Setting it 0 effectively disables the RX interrupt moderation
feature. Now we have both TX/RX interrupt moderation code so remove
loop of interrupt handler which resulted in sub-optimal performance
as well as more register accesses.


# 200913 23-Dec-2009 yongari

We don't need to generate DMA complete interrupt for every
transmitted frames. So request interrupt for every 16th frames. Due
to the limitation of hardware we can't suppress the interrupt as
driver should have to check TX status register. The TX status
register can store up to 31 TX status so driver can't send more
than 31 frames without reading TX status register.
With this change controller would not generate TX completion
interrupt for every frame, so reclaim transmitted frames in
ste_tick().


# 200912 23-Dec-2009 yongari

Correct STE_COUNTDOWN register offset. The datasheet was wrong.


# 200911 23-Dec-2009 yongari

Remove unused duplicated register definition. It seems the
definition was made to access STE_ASICCTL register as 16bits but
ste(4) always access the register as 32bits so it was never used
before.


# 200910 23-Dec-2009 yongari

Implement hardware MAC statistics counter support. The counters
could be accessed with dev.ste.0.stats sysctl node.


# 200884 22-Dec-2009 yongari

Reimplement Tx status error handler as recommended by datasheet.
If ste(4) encounter TX underrun or excessive collisions the TX MAC
of controller is stalled so driver should wake it up again. TX
underrun requires increasing TX threshold value to minimize
further TX underruns. Previously ste(4) used to reset controller
to recover from TX underrun, excessive collision and reclaiming
error. However datasheet says only TX underrun requires resetting
entire controller. So implement ste_restart_tx() that restarts TX
MAC and do not perform full reset except TX underrun case.
Now ste(4) uses CSR_READ_2 instead of CSR_READ_1 to read
STE_TX_STATUS register. This way ste(4) will also read frame id
value and we can write the same value back to STE_TX_FRAMEID
register instead of overwriting it to 0. The datasheet was wrong
in write back of STE_TX_STATUS so add some comments why we do so.
Also always invoke ste_txeoc() after ste_txeof() in ste_poll as
without reading TX status register can stall TX MAC.


# 200877 22-Dec-2009 yongari

Prefer bus_write_{1,2,4}/bus_read_{1,2,4} to
bus_space_write_{1,2,4}/bus_space_read_{1,2,4}.
Remove unused ste_bhandle and ste_btag in softc.


# 200875 22-Dec-2009 yongari

Prefer memory space register mapping over io space. If memory space
mapping fails fall back to old io space mapping.
While I'm here use PCIR_BAR macro.


# 200865 22-Dec-2009 yongari

Reimplement miibus_statchg method. Don't rely on link state change
interrupt. If we want to use link state change interrupt ste(4)
should also implement auto-negotiation complete handler as well as
various PHY access handling. Now link state change is handled by
mii(4) polling so it will automatically update link state UP/DOWN
events which in turn make ste(4) usable with lagg(4).

r199559 added a private timer to drive watchdog and the timer also
used to drive MAC statistics update. Because the MAC statistics
update is called whenever statistics counter reaches near-full, it
drove watchdog timer too fast such that it caused false watchdog
timeouts under heavy TX traffic conditions.
Fix the regression by separating ste_stats_update() from driving
watchdog timer and introduce a new function ste_tick() that handles
periodic job such as driving watchdog, MAC statistics update and
link state check etc.
While I'm here clear armed watchdog timer in ste_stop().


# 200856 22-Dec-2009 yongari

Introduce sc_flags member variable and use it to keep track of
link state and PHY related information.
Remove ste_link and ste_one_phy variable of softc as it's not used
anymore.
While I'm here add IFF_DRV_RUNNING check in ste_start_locked().


# 200853 22-Dec-2009 yongari

Add bus_dma(9) and endianness support to ste(4).
o Sorted includes and added missing header files.
o Added basic endianness support. In theory ste(4) should work on
any architectures.
o Remove the use of contigmalloc(9), contigfree(9) and vtophys(9).
o Added 8 byte alignment limitation of TX/RX descriptor.
o Added 1 byte alignment requirement for TX/RX buffers.
o ste(4) controllers does not support DAC. Limit DMA address space
to be within 32bit address.
o Added spare DMA map to gracefully recover from DMA map failure.
o Removed dead code for checking STE_RXSTAT_DMADONE bit. The bit
was already checked in each iteration of loop so it can't be true.
o Added second argument count to ste_rxeof(). It is used to limit
number of iterations done in RX handler. ATM polling is the only
consumer.
o Removed ste_rxeoc() which was added to address RX stuck issue
(cvs rev 1.66). Unlike TX descriptors, ST201 supports chaining
descriptors to form a ring for RX descriptors. If RX descriptor
chaining is not supported it's possible for controller to stop
receiving incoming frames once controller pass the end of RX
descriptor which in turn requires driver post new RX
descriptors to receive more frames. For TX descriptors which
does not support chaning, we exactly do manual chaining in
driver by concatenating new descriptors to the end of previous
TX chain.
Maybe the workaround was borrowed from other drivers that does
not support RX descriptor chaining, which is not valid for ST201
controllers. I still have no idea how this address RX stuck
issue and I can't reproduce the RX stuck issue on DFE-550TX
controller.
o Removed hw.ste_rxsyncs sysctl as the workaround was removed.
o TX/RX side bus_dmamap_load_mbuf_sg(9) support.
o Reimplemented optimized ste_encap().
o Simplified TX logic of ste_start_locked().
o Added comments for TFD/RFD requirements.
o Increased number of RX descriptors to 128 from 64. 128 gave much
better performance than 64 under high network loads.

# 147256 10-Jun-2005 brooks

Stop embedding struct ifnet at the top of driver softcs. Instead the
struct ifnet or the layer 2 common structure it was embedded in have
been replaced with a struct ifnet pointer to be filled by a call to the
new function, if_alloc(). The layer 2 common structure is also allocated
via if_alloc() based on the interface type. It is hung off the new
struct ifnet member, if_l2com.

This change removes the size of these structures from the kernel ABI and
will allow us to better manage them as interfaces come and go.

Other changes of note:
- Struct arpcom is no longer referenced in normal interface code.
Instead the Ethernet address is accessed via the IFP2ENADDR() macro.
To enforce this ac_enaddr has been renamed to _ac_enaddr.
- The second argument to ether_ifattach is now always the mac address
from driver private storage rather than sometimes being ac_enaddr.

Actually fix the TX performance with polling(4) enabled
by increasing the TX list size from 64 to 128, which is
adequate for HZ=1000.

Submitted by: Vsevolod Lobko


# 127927 06-Apr-2004 ru

- Improved the TX performance with polling(4) by only checking the
status registers for error conditions and updating statistics
when there are cycles left (inspired by the nge(4) driver).

- Removed the TX list counter and the producer/consumer gap; it's
enough to just ensure we don't reuse the last (free) descriptor,
as the chip may not have read its next pointer yet. If we reuse
it, the TX may stall under a heavy TX load with polling enabled.

- Dropped code to recharge the watchdog timer, it's pointless; the
watchdog routine will re-init the chip and both RX and TX lists.


# 127775 02-Apr-2004 ru

Performance tuning.

Moved the RX ring resyncing code to ste_rxeoc(), and only run it
if we were asked to POLL_AND_CHECK_STATUS, under DEVICE_POLLING.
(This significantly reduces the CPU load.)

Improved the RX ring resyncing code by re-checking if the head
is still empty before doing resyncing. This mostly affects the
DEVICE_POLLING mode, where we run this code periodically. We
could start checking with an empty head (well, an empty ring
even), and after doing a few iterations, the chip might write
a few entries, including the head, and we would bogusly consider
this case as requiring resyncing. On a test box, this reduced
the number of resyncs done by a factor of 10.

In ste_txeof(sc), only reset the watchdog timer to zero when
the TX list is completely empty.

Converted ste_tx_prev_idx to a pointer -- faster.

Removed some bitrot.

Fixes for the D-Link DFE-580 card.

This is pretty much fixes any issue I can find:
- Watchdog timeouts were due to starting the TX DMA engine
before we had a packet ready for it. So the first packet
sent never got out only if we sent more then one packet
at a time did the others make it out and not blow up.
Of course reseting the chip then caused us not to transmit
the first packet again ie. catch-22. This required logic changes.
- Combine interrupts on TX packets being queued up.
- Don't keep running around the RX ring since we might get
out of sync so only go around once per receive
- Let the RX engine recover via the poll interface which is
similar to the TX interface. This way the chip wakes
up with no effort when we read enough packets.
- Do better hand-shaking on RX & TX packets so they don't
start of to soon.
- Force a duplex setting when the link comes up after
an ste_init or it will default to half-duplex and be
really slow. This only happens on subsequent ste_init.
The first one worked.
- Don't call stat_update for every overflow. We only monitor
the collisions so the tick interval is good enough for that.
Just read in the collision stats to minimize bus reads.
- Don't read the miibus every tick since it uses delays and
delays are not good for performance.
- Tie link events directly to the miibus code so the port
gets set correctly if someone changes the port settings.
- Reduce the extreme number of {R,T}FD's. They would consume
130K of kernel memory for each NIC.
- Set the TX_THRESH to wait for the DMA engine to complete
before running the TX FIFO. This hurts peak TX performance
but under bi-directional load the DMA engine can't keep up
with the FIFO. Testing shows that we end up in the case
anyways (a la dc(4) issues but worse since the RX engine hogs
everything).
- When stopping the card do a reset since the reset verifies the
card has stopped. Otherwise on heavy RX load the RX DMA engine
is still stuffing packets into memory. If that happens after
we free the DMA area memory bits get scribled in memory and
bad things happen.

This card still has seemingly unfixable issues under heavy RX load in
which the card takes over the PCI bus.

# 72200 09-Feb-2001 bmilekic

Change and clean the mutex lock interface.

mtx_enter(lock, type) becomes:

mtx_lock(lock) for sleep locks (MTX_DEF-initialized locks)
mtx_lock_spin(lock) for spin locks (MTX_SPIN-initialized)

similarily, for releasing a lock, we now have:

mtx_unlock(lock) for MTX_DEF and mtx_unlock_spin(lock) for MTX_SPIN.
We change the caller interface for the two different types of locks
because the semantics are entirely different for each case, and this
makes it explicitly clear and, at the same time, it rids us of the
extra `type' argument.

The enter->lock and exit->unlock change has been made with the idea
that we're "locking data" and not "entering locked code" in mind.

Further, remove all additional "flags" previously passed to the
lock acquire/release routines with the exception of two:

MTX_QUIET and MTX_NOSWITCH

The functionality of these flags is preserved and they can be passed
to the lock/unlock routines by calling the corresponding wrappers:

mtx_{lock, unlock}_flags(lock, flag(s)) and
mtx_{lock, unlock}_spin_flags(lock, flag(s)) for MTX_DEF and MTX_SPIN
locks, respectively.

Re-inline some lock acq/rel code; in the sleep lock case, we only
inline the _obtain_lock()s in order to ensure that the inlined code
fits into a cache line. In the spin lock case, we inline recursion and
actually only perform a function call if we need to spin. This change
has been made with the idea that we generally tend to avoid spin locks
and that also the spin locks that we do have and are heavily used
(i.e. sched_lock) do recurse, and therefore in an effort to reduce
function call overhead for some architectures (such as alpha), we
inline recursion for this case.

Create a new malloc type for the witness code and retire from using
the M_DEV type. The new type is called M_WITNESS and is only declared
if WITNESS is enabled.

Begin cleaning up some machdep/mutex.h code - specifically updated the
"optimized" inlined code in alpha/mutex.h and wrote MTX_LOCK_SPIN
and MTX_UNLOCK_SPIN asm macros for the i386/mutex.h as we presently
need those.

Finally, caught up to the interface changes in all sys code.

this chip is the D-Link DFE-550TX. (Don't ask me where to buy these: the
only cards I have are samples sent to me by D-Link.)

This driver is the first to make use of the miibus code once I'm sure
it all works together nicely, I'll start converting the other drivers.

The Sundance chip is a clone of the 3Com 3c90x Etherlink XL design
only with its own register layout. Support is provided for ifmedia,
hardware multicast filtering, bridging and promiscuous mode.
