An early Christmas present: add driver support for a whole bunch of

PCI fast ethernet adapters, plus man pages.

if_pn.c: Netgear FA310TX model D1, LinkSys LNE100TX, Matrox FastNIC 10/100,
         various other PNIC devices

if_mx.c: NDC Communications SOHOware SFA100 (Macronix 98713A), various
         other boards based on the Macronix 98713, 98713A, 98715, 98715A
         and 98725 chips

if_vr.c: D-Link DFE530-TX, other boards based on the VIA Rhine and
         Rhine II chips (note: the D-Link and certain other cards
         that actually use a Rhine II chip still return the PCI
         device ID of the Rhine I. I don't know why, and it doesn't
         really matter since the driver treats both chips the same
         anyway.)

if_wb.c: Trendware TE100-PCIE and various other cards based on the
         Winbond W89C840F chip (the Trendware card is identical to
         the sample boards Winbond sent me, so who knows how many
         clones there are running around)

All drivers include support for ifmedia, BPF and hardware multicast
filtering.

Also updated GENERIC, LINT, RELNOTES.TXT, userconfig and
sysinstall device list.

I also have a driver for the ASIX AX88140A in the works.

+VIA Technologies VT3043 and VT86C100A ethernet device driver
+.Sh SYNOPSIS
+.Cd "device vr0"
+.Sh DESCRIPTION
+The
+.Nm
+driver provides support for PCI ethernet adapters and embedded
+controllers based on the VIA Technologies VT3043 Rhine I and
+VT86C100A Rhine II fast ethernet controller chips. This includes
+the D-Link DFE530-TX and various other commodity fast ethernet
+cards.
+.Pp
+The VIA Rhine chips use bus master DMA and have a software interface
+designed to resemble that of the DEC 21x4x "tulip" chips. The major
+differences are that the receive filter in the Rhine chips is
+much simpler and is programmed through registers rather than by
+downloading a special setup frame through the transmit DMA engine,
+and that transmit and receive DMA buffers must be longword
+aligned. The Rhine chips are meant to be interfaced with external
+physical layer devices via an MII bus. They support both
+10 and 100Mbps speeds in either full or half duplex.
+.Pp
+The
+.Nm
+driver supports the following media types:
+.Pp
+.Bl -tag -width xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
+.It autoselect
+Enable autoselection of the media type and options.
+The user can manually override
+the autoselected mode by adding media options to the
+.Pa /etc/rc.conf
+fine.
+.It 10baseT/UTP
+Set 10Mbps operation. The
+.Ar mediaopt
+option can also be used to select either
+.Ar full-duplex
+or
+.Ar half-duplex modes.
+.It 100baseTX
+Set 100Mbps (fast ethernet) operation. The
+.Ar mediaopt
+option can also be used to select either
+.Ar full-duplex
+or
+.Ar half-duplex
+modes.
+.El
+.Pp
+The
+.Nm
+driver supports the following media options:
+.Pp
+.Bl -tag -width xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
+.It full-duplex
+Force full duplex operation
+.It half-duplex
+Force half duplex operation.
+.El
+.Pp
+Note that the 100baseTX media type is only available if supported
+by the adapter.
+For more information on configuring this device, see
+.Xr ifconfig 8 .
+.Sh DIAGNOSTICS
+.Bl -diag
+.It "vr%d: couldn't map memory"
+A fatal initialization error has occurred.
+.It "vr%d: couldn't map interrupt"
+A fatal initialization error has occurred.
+.It "vr%d: watchdog timeout"
+The device has stopped responding to the network, or there is a problem with
+the network connection (cable).
+.It "vr%d: no memory for rx list"
+The driver failed to allocate an mbuf for the receiver ring.
+.It "vr%d: no memory for tx list"
+The driver fauled to allocate an mbuf for the transmitter ring when
+allocating a pad buffer or collapsing an mbuf chain into a cluster.
+.It "vr%d: chip is in D3 power state -- setting to D0"
+This message applies only to adapters which support power
+management. Some operating systems place the controller in low power
+mode when shutting down, and some PCI BIOSes fail to bring the chip
+out of this state before configuring it. The controller loses all of
+its PCI configuration in the D3 state, so if the BIOS does not set
+it back to full power mode in time, it won't be able to configure it
+correctly. The driver tries to detect this condition and bring
+the adapter back to the D0 (full power) state, but this may not be
+enough to return the driver to a fully operational condition. If
+you see this message at boot time and the driver fails to attach
+the device as a network interface, you will have to perform second
+warm boot to have the device properly configured.
+.Pp
+Note that this condition only occurs when warm booting from another
+operating system. If you power down your system prior to booting
+.Fx ,
+the card should be configured correctly.

+.Sh HISTORY
+The
+.Nm
+device driver first appeared in
+.Fx 3.0 .
+.Sh AUTHOR
+The
+.Nm
+driver was written by
+.An Bill Paul Aq wpaul@ctr.columbia.edu .
+.Sh BUGS
+The
+.Nm
+driver always copies transmit mbuf chains into longword-aligned
+buffers prior to transmission in order to pacify the Rhine chips.
+If buffers are not aligned correctly, the chip will round the
+supplied buffer address and begin DMAing from the wrong location.
+This buffer copying impairs transmit performance on slower systems but can't
+be avoided. On faster machines (e.g. a Pentium II), the performance
+impact is much less noticable.
