# 217593 19-Jan-2011 jfv

Update driver to version 2.3.8:
CRITICAL FIX - with stats changes the older 82598 will panic
and trash the stack on driver load, FCOE registers ONLY exist
in 82599 and must not be read otherwise.

kern/153951 - to correct incorrect media type on adapters
with pluggable modules I have eliminated the old static
table in favor of a new dynamic shared code routine. This
also has the benefit of detecting changes when a different
module is inserted.

Performance/enhancement to the Flow Director code from my
linux coworker (the developer of the code).

Fixes from Michael Tuexen - a data corruption problem on the
82599 (CRITICAL), fix so the buf size correctly adjusts as
the cluster changes, and max descriptors are set properly.
Also added 16K clusters for those REALLY big jumbos :)

In the RX path, the RX LOCK was not being released, and this
causes LOR problems. Add the code that igb already has.

Sync with in house shared code, this was necessary for the
Flow Director fix.

MFC in 2 days


# 215911 26-Nov-2010 jfv

Update ixgbe driver to verion 2.3.6
- This adds a VM SRIOV interface, ixv, it is however
transparent to the user, it links with the ixgbe.ko,
but when ixgbe is loaded in a virtualized guest with
SRIOV configured this will be detected.
- Sync shared code to latest
- Many bug fixes and improvements, thanks to everyone
who has been using the driver and reporting issues.


# 200239 07-Dec-2009 jfv

Update driver to Intel version 2.0.7:

This adds new feature support for the 82599, a hardware
assist to LRO, doing this required a large revamp to the
RX cleanup code because the descriptor ring may not be
processed out of order, this necessitated the elimination
of global pointers.

Additionally, the RX routine now does not refresh mbufs
on every descriptor, rather it will do a range, and then
update the hardware pointer at that time. These are
performance oriented changes.

The TX side now has a cleaner simpler watchdog algorithm
as well, in TX cleanup a read of ticks is stored, that
can then be compared in local_timer to determine if
there is a hang.

Various other cleanups along the way, thanks to all who
have provided input and testing.


# 190873 09-Apr-2009 jfv

Update the ixgbe driver to 1.7.4, this includes support
for the new 82599 adapter family, adds header split, and
many small fixes. The driver should now be added to the
GENERIC kernel.

MFC after: 2 weeks


# 185352 26-Nov-2008 jfv

Updated ixgbe driver - version 1.6.2

-This version has header split, and as a result a number of
aspects of the code have been improved/simplified.
- Interrupt handling refined for performance
- Many small bugs fixed along the way

MFC after: ASAP - in time for 7.1


# 181003 30-Jul-2008 jfv

This updates the ixgbe driver to Intel internal version 1.4.7
Shared code changes, core driver fixes, vlan event/filter support

Also Kip Macy's fix to allow any number of queues, thanks Kip!


# 179055 16-May-2008 jfv

This is driver version 1.4.4 of the Intel ixgbe driver.
-It has new hardware support
-It uses a new method of TX cleanup called Head Write Back
-It includes the provisional generic TCP LRO feature contributed
by Myricom and made general purpose by me. This should move into
the stack upon approval but for this driver drop its in here.
-Also bug fixes and etc...

MFC in a week if no serious issues arise.


# 172043 04-Sep-2007 jfv

This is an update to the new Intel 10G 82598 driver.
The first drop was Beta, this code is expected to be the release version.
Note that this driver code will build in either 6.2 or 7. If you
use the code in 6.2 you will not get TSO or MSI/X support but it will
function in a legacy mode.

# 171411 12-Jul-2007 jfv

New Driver for Intel 10G PCI-Express Dual Port Network adapter (82598)
- ixgbe.c, ixgbe.h, and ixgbe_osdep.h make the core OS driver.
- Others are OS independent shared code.
- This is still a Beta driver, the Intel ship is a month or so off,
so I welcome any feedback from early users.
