H A Dif_em.hdiff 118314 Fri Aug 01 15:33:59 MDT 2003 jdp Add facilities for tuning the "em" driver's interrupt delays without
recompiling the driver. See the comments near the top of "if_em.h"
for descriptions of these delays. Four new loader tunables control
the system-wide default values:

hw.em.tx_int_delay
hw.em.rx_int_delay
hw.em.tx_abs_int_delay
hw.em.rx_abs_int_delay

The tunables are specified in microseconds. The valid range is
0-67108 usec., and 0 means that the timer is disabled.

There are also four new sysctls (actually, a set of four for each
"em" device in the system) to query and change the interrupt delays
after the system is up:

hw.em0.tx_int_delay
hw.em0.rx_int_delay
hw.em0.tx_abs_int_delay (not present for 82542/3/4 adapters)
hw.em0.rx_abs_int_delay (not present for 82542/3/4 adapters)

It seems to be OK to change these values even while the adapter is
passing traffic.
