r339703: Deprecate a number of less used 10 and 10/100 Ethernet devices.
The current deprecated list is: ae, bm, cs, de, dme, ed, ep, ex, fe, pcn, sf, sn, tl, tx, txp, vx, wb, xe
The list as refined as part of FCP-0101. Per the FCP, devices may be removed from the deprecation list if enough users are found or they are converted to iflib.
FCP: https://github.com/freebsd/fcp/blob/master/fcp-0101.md
r347365: Update dme(4) to reflect that it will not be removed due to FCP-101.
dme(4) is the built-in NIC on a couple non-expandable mips platforms and thus should remain. The FCP has been updated to reflect this fact.
Discussed with: imp
r347703: FCP-101: ae(4) is sufficently popular to be moved to the keep list.
r347940: Remove the notice that ae(4) will be removed in FreeBSD 13.

- Remove attempts to implement setting of BMCR_LOOP/MIIF_NOLOOP (reporting IFM_LOOP based on BMCR_LOOP is left in place though as it might provide useful for debugging). For most mii(4) drivers it was unclear whether the PHYs driven by them actually support loopback or not. Moreover, typically loopback mode also needs to be activated on the MAC, which none of the Ethernet drivers using mii(4) implements. Given that loopback media has no real use (and obviously hardly had a chance to actually work) besides for driver development (which just loopback mode should be sufficient for though, i.e one doesn't necessary need support for loopback media) support for it is just dropped as both NetBSD and OpenBSD already did quite some time ago. - Let mii_phy_add_media() also announce the support of IFM_NONE. - Restructure the PHY entry points to use a structure of entry points instead of discrete function pointers, and extend this to include a "reset" entry point. Make sure any PHY-specific reset routine is always used, and provide one for lxtphy(4) which disables MII interrupts (as is done for a few other PHYs we have drivers for). This includes changing NIC drivers which previously just called the generic mii_phy_reset() to now actually call the PHY-specific reset routine, which might be crucial in some cases. While at it, the redundant checks in these NIC drivers for mii->mii_instance not being zero before calling the reset routines were removed because as soon as one PHY driver attaches mii->mii_instance is incremented and we hardly can end up in their media change callbacks etc if no PHY driver has attached as mii_attach() would have failed in that case and not attach a miibus(4) instance. Consequently, NIC drivers now no longer should call mii_phy_reset() directly, so it was removed from EXPORT_SYMS. - Add a mii_phy_dev_attach() as a companion helper to mii_phy_dev_probe(). The purpose of that function is to perform the common steps to attach a PHY driver instance and to hook it up to the miibus(4) instance and to optionally also handle the probing, addition and initialization of the supported media. So all a PHY driver without any special requirements has to do in its bus attach method is to call mii_phy_dev_attach() along with PHY-specific MIIF_* flags, a pointer to its PHY functions and the add_media set to one. All PHY drivers were updated to take advantage of mii_phy_dev_attach() as appropriate. Along with these changes the capability mask was added to the mii_softc structure so PHY drivers taking advantage of mii_phy_dev_attach() but still handling media on their own do not need to fiddle with the MII attach arguments anyway. - Keep track of the PHY offset in the mii_softc structure. This is done for compatibility with NetBSD/OpenBSD. - Keep track of the PHY's OUI, model and revision in the mii_softc structure. Several PHY drivers require this information also after attaching and previously had to wrap their own softc around mii_softc. NetBSD/OpenBSD also keep track of the model and revision on their mii_softc structure. All PHY drivers were updated to take advantage as appropriate. - Convert the mebers of the MII data structure to unsigned where appropriate. This is partly inspired by NetBSD/OpenBSD. - According to IEEE 802.3-2002 the bits actually have to be reversed when mapping an OUI to the MII ID registers. All PHY drivers and miidevs where changed as necessary. Actually this now again allows to largely share miidevs with NetBSD, which fixed this problem already 9 years ago. Consequently miidevs was synced as far as possible. - Add MIIF_NOMANPAUSE and mii_phy_flowstatus() calls to drivers that weren't explicitly converted to support flow control before. It's unclear whether flow control actually works with these but typically it should and their net behavior should be more correct with these changes in place than without if the MAC driver sets MIIF_DOPAUSE.

Use if_maddr_rlock()/if_maddr_runlock() rather than IF_ADDR_LOCK()/ IF_ADDR_UNLOCK() across network device drivers when accessing the per-interface multicast address list, if_multiaddrs. This will allow us to change the locking strategy without affecting our driver programming interface or binary interface.
For two wireless drivers, remove unnecessary locking, since they don't actually access the multicast address list.

- Store pointer to the link-level address right in "struct ifnet" rather than in ifindex_table[]; all (except one) accesses are through ifp anyway. IF_LLADDR() works faster, and all (except one) ifaddr_byindex() users were converted to use ifp->if_addr.
- Stop storing a (pointer to) Ethernet address in "struct arpcom", and drop the IFP2ENADDR() macro; all users have been converted to use IF_LLADDR() instead.

Make sure that we call if_free(ifp) after bus_teardown_intr. Since we could get an interrupt after we free the ifp, and the interrupt handler depended on the ifp being still alive, this could, in theory, cause a crash. Eliminate this possibility by moving the if_free to after the bus_teardown_intr() call.

Propagate rename of IFF_OACTIVE and IFF_RUNNING to IFF_DRV_OACTIVE and IFF_DRV_RUNNING, as well as the move from ifnet.if_flags to ifnet.if_drv_flags. Device drivers are now responsible for synchronizing access to these flags, as they are in if_drv_flags. This helps prevent races between the network stack and device driver in maintaining the interface flags field.
Many __FreeBSD__ and __FreeBSD_version checks maintained and continued; some less so.

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.

Replace the if_name and if_unit members of struct ifnet with new members if_xname, if_dname, and if_dunit. if_xname is the name of the interface and if_dname/unit are the driver name and instance.
This change paves the way for interface renaming and enhanced pseudo device creation and configuration symantics.

Mega busdma API commit.
Add two new arguments to bus_dma_tag_create(): lockfunc and lockfuncarg. Lockfunc allows a driver to provide a function for managing its locking semantics while using busdma. At the moment, this is used for the asynchronous busdma_swi and callback mechanism. Two lockfunc implementations are provided: busdma_lock_mutex() performs standard mutex operations on the mutex that is specified from lockfuncarg. dftl_lock() is a panic implementation and is defaulted to when NULL, NULL are passed to bus_dma_tag_create(). The only time that NULL, NULL should ever be used is when the driver ensures that bus_dmamap_load() will not be deferred. Drivers that do not provide their own locking can pass busdma_lock_mutex,&Giant args in order to preserve the former behaviour.
sparc64 and powerpc do not provide real busdma_swi functions, so this is largely a noop on those platforms. The busdma_swi on is64 is not properly locked yet, so warnings will be emitted on this platform when busdma callback deferrals happen.
If anyone gets panics or warnings from dflt_lock() being called, please let me know right away.

- Enable interrupts only at the end of epic_attach() when all the other initializations succeeded. - Initialize the TX and RX rings in epic_attach() rather than in epic_init() where we're not supposed to fail. Similarly, free the TX and RX rings in epic_detach() rather than in epic_stop(). - Change epic_init() to be a void function now that it can't fail. Also change its parameter to a void * so that we have a correct prototype for if_init. - Now that epic_init() has a correct prototype, don't cast the function pointer when initializing if_init. - Fix nearby style bugs.

- Express hard dependencies on bus (pci, isa, pccard) and network layer (ether). - Don't abuse module names to facilitate ifconfig module loading; such abuse isn't really needed. (And if we do need type information associated with a module then we should make it explicit and not use hacks.)

o don't strip the Ethernet header from inbound packets; pass packets up the stack intact (required significant changes to some drivers) o reference common definitions in net/ethernet.h (e.g. ETHER_ALIGN) o track ether_ifattach/ether_ifdetach API changes o track bpf changes (use BPF_TAP and BPF_MTAP) o track vlan changes (ifnet capabilities, revised processing scheme, etc.) o use if_input to pass packets "up" o call ether_ioctl for default handling of ioctls

Add an epic_stats_update() function (called once per second). Even though we don't collect any stats in it, we mii_tick() in it! This fix the bug when autonegotiating fullduplex modes.
Also, pause activity before setting TXCON in epic_miibus_statchg(). Though i've never seen problmes from not doing that, the documentation says we need to do it.

Make all Ethernet drivers attach using ether_ifattach() and detach using ether_ifdetach().
The former consolidates the operations of if_attach(), ng_ether_attach(), and bpfattach(). The latter consolidates the corresponding detach operations.

Move code to handle BPF and bridging for incoming Ethernet packets out of the individual drivers and into the common routine ether_input(). Also, remove the (incomplete) hack for matching ethernet headers in the ip_fw code.
The good news: net result of 1016 lines removed, and this should make bridging now work with *all* Ethernet drivers.
The bad news: it's nearly impossible to test every driver, especially for bridging, and I was unable to get much testing help on the mailing lists.

Simplify the COMPAT_PCI_DRIVER/DATA_SET hack. We can add: #define COMPAT_PCI_DRIVER(name,data) DATA_SET(pcidevice_set,data) .. to 2.2.x and 3.x if people think it's worth it. Driver writers can do this if it's not defined. (The reason for this is that I'm trying to progressively eliminate use of linker_sets where it hurts modularity and runtime load capability, and these DATA_SET's keep getting in the way.)

Implemented workaround for EPIC's Application Note 7-15 (concerning chip int. and ext. clock synchronisation). Fixed workaround for transmit threshold underrun. Added volatile keyword to CSR_READ_* and CSR_WRITE_* macroses. Added DELAYs to eliminate randomness caused by processor speed. Fixed all TXCON and RXCON registers to be accessed only when chip is idle, as manual told. Changed epic_init_phy to drop link by isolating and going loopback, should should force link partner to restart autonegotiation.

Removed ifdef for <sys/sockio.h> vs <sys/ioctl.h>. <sys/sockio.h> is a BSD4.4Lite1 feature, not a FreeBSD feature. <sys/ioctl.h> is a compatibility misfeature.
Moved NPCI ifdef. This file didn't compile if NPCI <= 0. It shouldn't be configured in that case, but it is easy to support (mis)configuration of drivers without buses by generating null objects, and many drivers do it.
Removed unused includes.
