First round documantation updates.


# 1.18 29-Oct-2000 lukem

branches: 1.18.2;
more work:
- use .Tn, .Bx, .Ul, .Key, .Sq, .Dq, .Li, .Dl, (etc) ... as appropriate
- be more consistent between various ports' install notes
- other cleanups


# 1.17 19-Oct-2000 leo

Drop 2940, add ESS-solo.

major terraform (this is MUCH more than a rototill :-), including:
- update for 1.5 (still more MD stuff to check)
- use new macros in ../common/macros as appropriate
- introduce some CONSISTENCY between the various ports' install docs
- use various mdoc macros as appropriate, including .Li, .Pa, .Sy, and .Ic.
- migrate more stuff into ../common/*
- whitespace cleanup
- lots of other little things i'm sure...

Added NE2000 with 8bit bus width support.
reviewd by tsutsui@ at tech-kern ML.
Fix a wrong calculation bug around RX ring buffer memory address
slipped in about sixteen years ago. Fortunately, it had been working
for ages because some devices used address zero and other devices
ignored wrong higher bits.
Tested on we(4) (SMC Elite Ultra) and ne(4) (NE2000 compatible
named UL0001) on ISA.
Note FreeBSD also uses the same correct value in their ed(4) driver.
Now dp8390_config() calculates mem_ring correctly so
no longer need to override it in ne2000_attach().
Use roundup2() in <sys/param.h> rather than a conditional.
Also fix a wrong mem_ring calculation in dp8390_ipkdb_attach().
Put several fixes to ne(4) driver for better 8 bit mode support,
especially on RTL8019AS which is also used for non-ISA local bus of
embedded controllers and some m68k machines like atari and x68k.
* move RTL8019 probe and attach code from each bus attachment
to MI ne2000_detect() and ne2000_attach()
* change a method for backend and attachment to specify 8 bit mode
to use a new sc->sc_quirk member, instead of sc->sc_dmawidth
* handle more NE2000 8 bit mode specific settings, including
bus_space(9) access width and available size of buffer memory
* add a function to detect NE2000 8 bit mode
(disabled by default, but enalbed by options NE2000_DETECT_8BIT
to avoid possible regression on various ISA clones)
* fix ipkdb attachment accordingly (untested)
Tested on two NE2000 ISA variants (RTL8019AS and another clone named UL0001)
in both 8 bit and 16 bit mode on i386. "Looks good" from nonaka@.
See my post on tech-kern for details:
http://mail-index.NetBSD.org/tech-kern/2010/02/26/msg007423.html
No need to override mem_ring value in ne2000_ipkdb_attach()
since a wrong calculation in dp8390_ipkdb_attach() was fixed.
Don't warn about DMA timeout during probe.
Add support for the EtherNEC.
The EtherNEC is yet another user designed device for Atari machines,
an NE2000 based ISA board connected to Atari's ROM cartridge slot with
simple but ingenious interface and cartridge port adapter, and
it's the most available network solution for the old Atari machines.
See following pages for more details about EtherNEC:
http://hardware.atari.org/ether/
http://home.arcor.de/thomas.redelberger/prj/atari/etherne/
http://www.freemint.org/ethernec/ethernec.html
Also note EtherNEC.
Use callout_schedule(9) rather than callout_reset(9) on polling
as callout(9) man says.
Remove EtherNEC from HADES and MILAN.
They have ISA so no one will bother to connect ISA NE2000 via EtherNEC.
Regen from HADES.in rev 1.11 and MILAN.in rev 1.25:
Remove EtherNEC from HADES and MILAN.
They have ISA so no one will bother to connect ISA NE2000 via EtherNEC.

Add support for the SMC Elite Ultra Ethernet with the SMC_TT VME-ISA bridge.
The SMC_TT is the user designed "handmade" VME-ISA bridge circuit
for 16 bit VME slot on TT030 and the SMC Elite Ultra ISA Ethernet card.
More information about SMC_TT can be found in the following archive:
ftp://ftp.funet.fi/pub/atari/net/smc_tt1.zip
Demonstrated on the NetBSD booth in Open Source Conference 2010 Kansai@Kobe.
Check if mapped bus_space regions are actually valid
before trying to access them.
Fixes trap panic when SMC_TT board is not installed. (oops)
Note atari SMC_TT in SYNOPSIS.
- note SMC_TT to supported VME-bus devices
- capitalize Ethernet
