Most of these are of the form: static const struct bzzt_type { [...list of members...] } const bzzt_devs[] = { [...list of initializers...] }; The second const is unnecessary, as arrays cannot be modified anyway, and if the elements are const, the whole thing is const automatically (e.g. it is placed in .rodata). I have verified this does not change the binary output of a full kernel build (except for build timestamps embedded in the object files). Reviewed by: yongari, marius MFC after: 1 week

* Do not report current link status if driver is not running.yongari2012-03-301-0/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | This change also workarounds dhclient's link state handling bug by not giving current link status. Unlike other controllers, ale(4)'s PHY hibernation perfectly works such that driver does not see a valid link if the controller is not brought up. If dhclient(8) runs on ale(4) it will blindly waits until link UP and then gives up after 10 seconds. Because dhclient(8) still thinks interface got a valid link when IFM_AVALID is not set for selected media, this change makes dhclient initiate DHCP without waiting for link UP.

* - Remove attempts to implement setting of BMCR_LOOP/MIIF_NOLOOPmarius2011-05-031-4/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (reporting IFM_LOOP based on BMCR_LOOP is left in place though as it might provide useful for debugging). For most mii(4) drivers it was unclear whether the PHYs driven by them actually support loopback or not. Moreover, typically loopback mode also needs to be activated on the MAC, which none of the Ethernet drivers using mii(4) implements. Given that loopback media has no real use (and obviously hardly had a chance to actually work) besides for driver development (which just loopback mode should be sufficient for though, i.e one doesn't necessary need support for loopback media) support for it is just dropped as both NetBSD and OpenBSD already did quite some time ago. - Let mii_phy_add_media() also announce the support of IFM_NONE. - Restructure the PHY entry points to use a structure of entry points instead of discrete function pointers, and extend this to include a "reset" entry point. Make sure any PHY-specific reset routine is always used, and provide one for lxtphy(4) which disables MII interrupts (as is done for a few other PHYs we have drivers for). This includes changing NIC drivers which previously just called the generic mii_phy_reset() to now actually call the PHY-specific reset routine, which might be crucial in some cases. While at it, the redundant checks in these NIC drivers for mii->mii_instance not being zero before calling the reset routines were removed because as soon as one PHY driver attaches mii->mii_instance is incremented and we hardly can end up in their media change callbacks etc if no PHY driver has attached as mii_attach() would have failed in that case and not attach a miibus(4) instance. Consequently, NIC drivers now no longer should call mii_phy_reset() directly, so it was removed from EXPORT_SYMS. - Add a mii_phy_dev_attach() as a companion helper to mii_phy_dev_probe(). The purpose of that function is to perform the common steps to attach a PHY driver instance and to hook it up to the miibus(4) instance and to optionally also handle the probing, addition and initialization of the supported media. So all a PHY driver without any special requirements has to do in its bus attach method is to call mii_phy_dev_attach() along with PHY-specific MIIF_* flags, a pointer to its PHY functions and the add_media set to one. All PHY drivers were updated to take advantage of mii_phy_dev_attach() as appropriate. Along with these changes the capability mask was added to the mii_softc structure so PHY drivers taking advantage of mii_phy_dev_attach() but still handling media on their own do not need to fiddle with the MII attach arguments anyway. - Keep track of the PHY offset in the mii_softc structure. This is done for compatibility with NetBSD/OpenBSD. - Keep track of the PHY's OUI, model and revision in the mii_softc structure. Several PHY drivers require this information also after attaching and previously had to wrap their own softc around mii_softc. NetBSD/OpenBSD also keep track of the model and revision on their mii_softc structure. All PHY drivers were updated to take advantage as appropriate. - Convert the mebers of the MII data structure to unsigned where appropriate. This is partly inspired by NetBSD/OpenBSD. - According to IEEE 802.3-2002 the bits actually have to be reversed when mapping an OUI to the MII ID registers. All PHY drivers and miidevs where changed as necessary. Actually this now again allows to largely share miidevs with NetBSD, which fixed this problem already 9 years ago. Consequently miidevs was synced as far as possible. - Add MIIF_NOMANPAUSE and mii_phy_flowstatus() calls to drivers that weren't explicitly converted to support flow control before. It's unclear whether flow control actually works with these but typically it should and their net behavior should be more correct with these changes in place than without if the MAC driver sets MIIF_DOPAUSE.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | the NIC drivers as well as the PHY drivers to take advantage of the mii_attach() introduced in r213878 to get rid of certain hacks. For the most part these were: - Artificially limiting miibus_{read,write}reg methods to certain PHY addresses; we now let mii_attach() only probe the PHY at the desired address(es) instead. - PHY drivers setting MIIF_* flags based on the NIC driver they hang off from, partly even based on grabbing and using the softc of the parent; we now pass these flags down from the NIC to the PHY drivers via mii_attach(). This got us rid of all such hacks except those of brgphy() in combination with bce(4) and bge(4), which is way beyond what can be expressed with simple flags. While at it, I took the opportunity to change the NIC drivers to pass up the error returned by mii_attach() (previously by mii_phy_probe()) and unify the error message used in this case where and as appropriate as mii_attach() actually can fail for a number of reasons, not just because of no PHY(s) being present at the expected address(es).

* Add ale(4), a driver for Atheros AR8121/AR8113/AR8114 PCIe ethernetyongari2008-11-123-0/+4090
controller. The controller is also known as L1E(AR8121) and L2E(AR8113/AR8114). Unlike its predecessor Attansic L1, AR8121/AR8113/AR8114 uses completely different Rx logic such that it requires separate driver. Datasheet for AR81xx is not available to open source driver writers but it shares large part of Tx and PHY logic of L1. I still don't understand some part of register meaning and some MAC statistics counters but the driver seems to have no critical issues for performance and stability. The AR81xx requires copy operation to pass received frames to upper stack such that ale(4) consumes a lot of CPU cycles than that of other controller. A couple of silicon bugs also adds more CPU cycles to address the known hardware bug. However, if you have fast CPU you can still saturate the link. Currently ale(4) supports the following hardware features. - MSI. - TCP Segmentation offload. - Hardware VLAN tag insertion/stripping with checksum offload. - Tx TCP/UDP checksum offload and Rx IP/TCP/UDP checksum offload. - Tx/Rx interrupt moderation. - Hardware statistics counters. - Jumbo frame. - WOL. AR81xx PCIe ethernet controllers are mainly found on ASUS EeePC or P5Q series of ASUS motherboards. Special thanks to Jeremy Chadwick who sent the hardware to me. Without his donation writing a driver for AR81xx would never have been possible. Big thanks to all people who reported feedback or tested patches.
