pass the bge_softc * to a function expecting the struct ifnet*,

(Testing via kernel debugger before Andrew's recent sysctl(9) changes
was done with the exact same mistaken argument.)
(tightly scoped) reason for recording the node address by recording
the assigned number. Dink pci/if_bge.c to match, since ic/ath.c was
used as the archetype.

Commit now in the hope that Andrew Brown will pick up this file for
any more pending changes.
Rx interrupts, functions to post a request for new table entries, and
code to apply pending Rx-interrupt control values at the next hardware
interrupt.
As used in a third-party proprietary tree since at least March 2003.
As discussed on tech-kern/tech-net in January 2004 (in the context of
NetBSD for packet capture, bpf, and FreeBSD-sylte IFF_POLL), and as
posted to tech-net for comments in mid-March 2004.
Still missing sysctl or other knobs to acutally change the config-time
values, due to my ignorance of any accepted per-device sysctl namespace.
(e.g., polling for a half-second or more at splnet(), blocking most
interrupts, durin an ifconfig down/ifconfig up).
Appears to help for a 5704C rev A3, which is the only chip I've
ever seen that had even a mild version of the reported problem.
found empiricaly that (at least on bcm5700s) the Rx coalesce and bd
counts cannot be updated on-the-fly; attempting to do so (even at
splhigh()) causes weird behaviour.
Instead, add a softc flag to record that the desired softc values for
Rx-interrupt thresholds have changed; check that boolean in the interrupt
routine. If set, apply the new values there and clear the flag.
including chips that matched only the asic-revision fallback table.
When dong DMA setup for 5703 and 5704, use the new BGE_ASICREV() macro
to extract the ASIC revision.
* erratum: disable the nocrc RX bit, as it may cause problems on the 570{1-4}.
adjust the length of the incoming packet accordingly to trim it.
* the 5704 has a smaller MBUF_POOL, so set a smaller value
Local change:
* Pass the autoneg force flag to mii_attach. Some PHYs need to be kicked
out of their falsely autoneged 10baseT state with this.
* don't set the NOCRC bit in the mode control register, it can cause
problems on some chips (from the broadcom errata via FreeBSD)
* implement a fallback quirktable that is searched only using the
major asic revision, so that the driver has a shot at supporting
newer versions properly without modification
* rename asicrev -> chipid, like the FreeBSD driver
observation is that some 570x devices can get themselves into a state
where they miscompute off-loaded TCP or UDP checksums on packets so
small that Ethernet padding is required. Further obsevation suggests
that the bge checksum-offload hardware is adding those padding bytes
into its TCP checksum computation. (Once a 5700 gets in this state,
even a warm boot won't fix it: it needs a hard powerdown.)
Work around the problem by padding such runts with zeros: even if the
checksum-offload adds in extra zeros, the resulting sum will be correct.
Also, dont trust the checksum-offload on received packets smaller than
the minimum ethernet frame, in case the Rx-side has a similar bug.
Finally, on packets where we do trust the outboard Rx-side TCP or UDP
checksum, the bge did not include the pseudo-header. Set the
M_CSUM_NO_PSEUDOHDR bit as well as M_CSUM_DATA, and rely on
udp_input() or tcp_input() adding in the sum via in_cksum_phdr().
if we m_dup() a packet to compactify it, and later run out of DMA
descriptors, bge_encap() will return ENOBUFS, hoping the driver will
try again later. But we have just m_freem()'d the original chain
which was m_dup()'d, leaving a pointer to the just-freed packet header
in the tx queue.
Fix by always walking the chain, shuffling data towards the head;
except if we find a runt in the very last mbuf, we must borrow data
from its predecessor.

enabled on amd64). Add a dmat64 field to various PCI attach structures,
and pass it down where needed. Implement a simple new function called
pci_dma64_available(pa) to test if 64bit DMA addresses may be used.
This returns 1 iff _PCI_HAVE_DMA64 is defined in <machine/pci_machdep.h>,
and there is more than 4G of memory.
require that the DMA receive buffers be aligned. The driver was
deliberately mis-aligning by 2 bytes, to force the layer-2/3
headers to 32-bit alignment.
Workaround: if chip is a 5701, and is in PCI-X mode, leave the DMA
buffers aligned. If the host CPU requires alignment, copy the buffer
after reception to force aligment.
Tested on an i386 in PCI-X bus, with __NO_STRICT_ALIGNMENT forced off.

quirk on all 5700 revision B devices. (These fixes have not been
tested against NetBSD recently; committing the fix and the enable separately
gives us flexibility about which fixes get pulled into the NetBSD-1.6 branch.)
* Add support for 5704C dual-channel chip with integral copper PHY (tested)
and 5704S dual-channel SERDES/TBI gbic (untested). Add PHY DSP patch
for 5704.
* Update PHY DSP-code patch for bcm5401 to match latest Linux driver.
* Add PHY DSP-code patch for 5703 (untested).
* Update onchip buffer tunables to recommended values from Linux drivers.
* Disable MWI access. This chip family cannot hanlde PCI stalls
in the middle of an MWI burst. The driver has heuristics to detect PCI
line size, but under load, some PCI bridges may force stalls which
the attach-time heruistics do not catch. Some PCI bridges never
do this, so maybe it should be a tunable option.
* bcm5700 rev Bx chips have a race condition, where updating the
Tx producer pointer goes un-noticed by the chip. Workaround is to
write the new producer-pointer value twice.
* bcm5700 chips rev Bx wedge up if given DMA descriptors of
eight bytes or less. Once hit, only reovery is a watchdog timeout/reset.
If the offending packet is retransmitted, the chip will wedge again...
Check for teeny fragments in a Tx request, and either fold the
teeny chunk residue into an adjacent mbuf, or m_dup the entire buffer.
(NB: quirk not yet enabled; in-place folding tested only on FreeBSD.)
* Add workaround for revision Bx bcm5700: chip bugs in decoding
of PCI register writes may leave the hardware in (partial) powersave state,
such that writes to "indirect" registers do not work.
Explicitly force chip into D0 state at attach time.
* Accessing PHY registers with the bge chip in autopoll mode, when
link-state is the process of changing, may cause the bge chip to
assert PCI errors. Workaround: when doing miibus register access,
save autopoll state, disable around access, and restore autopoll state.
NB: issuing PHY resets may give a window where the problem still occurs.
* Increase Tx interrupt-coalescing thresholds, to reduce Tx-done interrupts.
