# 203049 26-Jan-2010 jfv

Update the 1G drivers, shared code sync with Intel,
igb now has a queue notion that has a single interrupt
with an RX/TX pair, this will reduce the total interrupts
seen on a system. Both em and igb have a new watchdog
method. igb has fixes from Pyun Yong-Hyeon that have
improved stability, thank you :)

I wish to MFC this for 7.3 asap, please test if able.


# 200243 07-Dec-2009 jfv

Resync with Intel versions of both the em and igb
drivers. These add new hardware support, most importantly
the pch (i5 chipset) in the em driver. Also, both drivers
now have the simplified (and I hope improved) watchdog
code. The igb driver uses the new RX cleanup that I
first implemented in ixgbe.

em - version 6.9.24
igb - version 1.8.4


# 181027 30-Jul-2008 jfv

Merge of the source for igb and em into dev/e1000, this
proved to be necessary to make the static drivers work
in EITHER/OR or BOTH configurations. Modules will still
build in sys/modules/igb or em as before.

This also updates the igb driver for support for the 82576
adapter, adds shared code fixes, and etc....

MFC after: ASAP


# 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 :)


# 169240 03-May-2007 jfv

Merge in the new driver (6.5.0) of Intel. This has a new
shared code infrastructure that is family specific and
modular. There is also support for our latest gigabit
nic, the 82575 that is MSI/X and multiqueue capable.

The new shared code changes some interfaces to the core
code but testing at Intel has been going on for months,
it is fairly stable.

I have attempted to be careful in retaining any fixes that
CURRENT had and we did not, I apologize in advance if any
thing gets clobbered, I'm sure I'll hear about it :)

# 157577 07-Apr-2006 glebius

Restore accidentially removed rev. 1.3


# 157566 06-Apr-2006 glebius

Merge in new driver from Intel, version 5.1.5. Adds support for some
new chips and improves support for already supported ones.

Some details, important for future merges:
- if_em.c merged manually, viewing diff between new vendor
driver and previous one.
- if_em_hw.h dropped in from vendor, and then restored revisions
1.16, 1.17, 1.18.
- if_em_hw.c dropped in from vendor, and then two liner change made,
that restores support for two rare chips.


# 139749 05-Jan-2005 imp

Start each of the license/copyright comments with /*-, minor shuffle of lines


# 112472 21-Mar-2003 pdeuskar

Added support for 82541 and 82547 based adapters.
- These have Intel gigabit PHY
- 82547 uses CSA interface

MFC after: 1 week


# 108894 07-Jan-2003 pdeuskar

The README refers to a LICENSE file, so add that file too.
BTW the license is also embedded in the source files.
