# 267654 19-Jun-2014 gjb

Copy stable/9 to releng/9.3 as part of the 9.3-RELEASE cycle.

# 262594 27-Feb-2014 rodrigc

MFC r262142:

In ue_attach_post_task(), initialize curvnet to vnet0 before calling if_attach().
Before this patch, curvnet was NULL.
When the VIMAGE kernel option is enabled, this eliminates
kernel panics when USB ethernet devices are plugged in.

# 248085 09-Mar-2013 marius

MFC: r227309 (partial)

Mark all SYSCTL_NODEs static that have no corresponding SYSCTL_DECLs.

The SYSCTL_NODE macro defines a list that stores all child-elements of
that node. If there's no SYSCTL_DECL macro anywhere else, there's no
reason why it shouldn't be static.


# 248078 08-Mar-2013 marius

MFC: r243857 (partial)

Mechanically substitute flags from historic mbuf allocator with
malloc(9) flags in sys/dev.


# 229105 31-Dec-2011 hselasky

MFC r226709:
Allow USB ethernet drivers to define a driver specific
attach handler so that a USB ethernet driver can
announce interface capabilities and do its own MII attach.


# 225736 22-Sep-2011 kensmith

Copy head to stable/9 as part of 9.0-RELEASE release cycle.

Approved by: re (implicit)


# 217556 18-Jan-2011 mdf

Specify a CTLTYPE_FOO so that a future sysctl(8) change does not need
to rely on the format string.


# 217265 11-Jan-2011 jhb

Remove unneeded includes of <sys/linker_set.h>. Other headers that use
it internally contain nested includes.

# 213894 15-Oct-2010 marius

Converted the remainder of the NIC drivers to use the mii_attach()
introduced in r213878 instead of mii_phy_probe(). Unlike r213893 these
are only straight forward conversions though.

RX buffer allocation failure is not an input error. Controller
successfully received a frame but we failed to pass it to upper
stack due to lack of resources. So update if_iqdrops counter
instead of updating if_ierrors counter.


# 207554 03-May-2010 sobomax

Add new tunable 'net.link.ifqmaxlen' to set default send interface
queue length. The default value for this parameter is 50, which is
quite low for many of today's uses and the only way to modify this
parameter right now is to edit if_var.h file. Also add read-only
sysctl with the same name, so that it's possible to retrieve the
current value.

Temporarily revert the new-bus locking for 8.0 release. It will be
reintroduced after HEAD is reopened for commits by re@.

# 196219 14-Aug-2009 jhb

Purge mergeinfo from files that were temporarily renamed while USB2 was
imported into the tree alongside USB.

Approved by: re (mergeinfo blanket)


# 196037 02-Aug-2009 attilio

Make the newbus subsystem Giant free by adding the new newbus sxlock.
The newbus lock is responsible for protecting newbus internIal structures,
device states and devclass flags. It is necessary to hold it when all
such datas are accessed. For the other operations, softc locking should
ensure enough protection to avoid races.

Newbus lock is automatically held when virtual operations on the device
and bus are invoked when loading the driver or when the suspend/resume
take place. For other 'spourious' operations trying to access/modify
the newbus topology, newbus lock needs to be automatically acquired and
dropped.

For the moment Giant is also acquired in some key point (modules subsystem)
in order to avoid problems before the 8.0 release as module handlers could
make assumptions about it. This Giant locking should go just after
the release happens.

Please keep in mind that the public interface can be expanded in order
to provide more support, if there are really necessities at some point
and also some bugs could arise as long as the patch needs a bit of
further testing.

Bump __FreeBSD_version in order to reflect the newbus lock introduction.

Bring in USB4BSD, Hans Petter Selasky rework of the USB stack
that includes significant features and SMP safety.

This commit includes a more or less complete rewrite of the *BSD USB
stack, including Host Controller and Device Controller drivers and
updating all existing USB drivers to use the new USB API:

1) A brief feature list:

- A new and mutex enabled USB API.

- Many USB drivers are now running Giant free.

- Linux USB kernel compatibility layer.

- New UGEN backend and libusb library, finally solves the "driver
unloading" problem. The new BSD licensed libusb20 library is fully
compatible with libusb-0.1.12 from sourceforge.

- New "usbconfig" utility, for easy configuration of USB.

- Full support for Split transactions, which means you can use your
full speed USB audio device on a high speed USB HUB.

- Full support for HS ISOC transactions, which makes writing drivers
for various HS webcams possible, for example.

- Full support for USB on embedded platforms, mostly cache flushing
and buffer invalidating stuff.

- Safer parsing of USB descriptors.

- Autodetect of annoying USB install disks.

- Support for USB device side mode, also called USB gadget mode,
using the same API like the USB host side. In other words the new
USB stack is symmetric with regard to host and device side.

- Support for USB transfers like I/O vectors, means more throughput
and less interrupts.

- ... see the FreeBSD quarterly status reports under "USB project"

2) To enable the driver in the default kernel build:

2.a) Remove all existing USB device options from your kernel config
file.

2.b) Add the following USB device options to your kernel configuration
file:

# USB core support
device usb2_core

# USB controller support
device usb2_controller
device usb2_controller_ehci
device usb2_controller_ohci
device usb2_controller_uhci

# USB mass storage support
device usb2_storage
device usb2_storage_mass

# USB ethernet support, requires miibus
device usb2_ethernet
device usb2_ethernet_aue
device usb2_ethernet_axe
device usb2_ethernet_cdce
device usb2_ethernet_cue
device usb2_ethernet_kue
device usb2_ethernet_rue
device usb2_ethernet_dav

# USB wireless LAN support
device usb2_wlan
device usb2_wlan_rum
device usb2_wlan_ral
device usb2_wlan_zyd

# USB serial device support
device usb2_serial
device usb2_serial_ark
device usb2_serial_bsa
device usb2_serial_bser
device usb2_serial_chcom
device usb2_serial_cycom
device usb2_serial_foma
device usb2_serial_ftdi
device usb2_serial_gensa
device usb2_serial_ipaq
device usb2_serial_lpt
device usb2_serial_mct
device usb2_serial_modem
device usb2_serial_moscom
device usb2_serial_plcom
device usb2_serial_visor
device usb2_serial_vscom

# USB bluetooth support
device usb2_bluetooth
device usb2_bluetooth_ng

# USB input device support
device usb2_input
device usb2_input_hid
device usb2_input_kbd
device usb2_input_ms

# USB sound and MIDI device support
device usb2_sound

2) To enable the driver at runtime:

2.a) Unload all existing USB modules. If USB is compiled into the
kernel then you might have to build a new kernel.

2.b) Load the "usb2_xxx.ko" modules under /boot/kernel having the same
base name like the kernel device option.
