count them when reading the NIC counters - it doubles the count. Read the
NIC counters to prevent counter overflow interrupts, but don't add them to
the interface counters. Don't bother reading the upper counts because they
are just latched when reading the totals.
Fixes final part of PR#11549.
Also make the interrupt handler for older 3com cards look like the xl one.
I.e. don't ack the interrupt latch bit before checking if it is set.
At the same time, introduce constants for the watched interrupts, so that
we don't copy them all over the place.
network interfaces. This works by pre-computing the pseudo-header
checksum and caching it, delaying the actual checksum to ip_output()
if the hardware cannot perform the sum for us. In-bound checksums
can either be fully-checked by hardware, or summed up for final
verification by software. This method was modeled after how this
is done in FreeBSD, although the code is significantly different in
most places.
We don't delay checksums for IPv6/TCP, but we do take advantage of the
cached pseudo-header checksum.
Note: hardware-assisted checksumming defaults to "off". It is
enabled with ifconfig(8). See the manual page for details.
Implement hardware-assisted checksumming on the DP83820 Gigabit Ethernet,
3c90xB/3c90xC 10/100 Ethernet, and Alteon Tigon/Tigon2 Gigabit Ethernet.
done when the command-in-progress bit has been cleared. The 1ms
time that is mentioned also seems wrong; 20,000us is not enough
on at least one machine. So, do a delay(100000) in ex_reset.
Fortunately, this function is only called when the card is
attached or when hardware failure is suspected.
While here, only mask one 1 bit in the 'reset hack' case.
- Add (missed)powerhook_disestablish() in ex_detach().
- Sync with below. Original commit log message:
Add new powerhook argument values, PWR_SOFTSUSPEND, PWR_SOFTSTANDBY and
PWR_SOFTRESUME. Apm calls powerhook with the values in normal interrupt
priority level while others are protected with splhigh().
have _detach() functions:
Ensure that softc keeps state about whether the attach succeeded,
and make the detach function return immediately if the attach did
not complete.
timeout()/untimeout() API:
- Clients supply callout handle storage, thus eliminating problems of
resource allocation.
- Insertion and removal of callouts is constant time, important as
this facility is used quite a lot in the kernel.
The old timeout()/untimeout() API has been removed from the kernel.
