the controller has a kind of embedded controller/memory and vendor
applies a large set of magic code via undocumented PHY registers in
device initialization stage. I guess it's a firmware image for the
embedded controller in RTL8105E since the code is too big compared
to other DSP fixups. However I have no idea what that magic code
does and what's purpose of the embedded controller. Fortunately
driver seems to still work without loading the firmware.
While I'm here change device description of RTL810xE controller.

capability. One of reason using interrupt taskqueue in re(4) was
to reduce number of TX/RX interrupts under load because re(4)
controllers have no good TX/RX interrupt moderation mechanism.
Basic TX interrupt moderation is done by hardware for most
controllers but RX interrupt moderation through undocumented
register showed poor RX performance so it was disabled in r215025.
Using taskqueue to handle RX interrupt greatly reduced number of
interrupts but re(4) consumed all available CPU cycles to run the
taskqueue under high TX/RX network load. This can happen even with
RTL810x fast ethernet controller and I believe this is not
acceptable for most systems.
To mitigate the issue, use one-shot timer register to moderate RX
interrupts. The timer register provides programmable one-shot timer
and can be used to suppress interrupt generation. The timer runs at
125MHZ on PCIe controllers so the minimum time allowed for the
timer is 8ns. Data sheet says the register is 32 bits but
experimentation shows only lower 13 bits are valid so maximum time
that can be programmed is 65.528us. This yields theoretical maximum
number of RX interrupts that could be generated per second is about
15260. Combined with TX completion interrupts re(4) shall generate
less than 20k interrupts. This number is still slightly high
compared to other intelligent ethernet controllers but system is
very responsive even under high network load.
Introduce sysctl variable dev.re.%d.int_rx_mod that controls amount
of time to delay RX interrupt processing in units of us. Value 0
completely disables RX interrupt moderation. To provide old
behavior for controllers that have MSI/MSI-X capability, introduce
a new tunable hw.re.intr_filter. If the tunable is set to non-zero
value, driver will use interrupt taskqueue. The default value of
the tunable is 0. This tunable has no effect on controllers that
has no MSI/MSI-X capability or if MSI/MSI-X is explicitly disabled
by administrator.
While I'm here cleanup interrupt setup/teardown since re(4) uses
single MSI/MSI-X message at this moment.

recent PCIe controllers(RTL8102E or later and RTL8168/8111C or
later) supports either 2 or 4 MSI-X messages. Unfortunately vendor
did not publicly release RSS related information yet. However
switching to MSI-X is one-step forward to support RSS.

GbE controllers. It seems these controllers no longer support
multi-fragmented RX buffers such that driver have to allocate
physically contiguous buffers.
o Retire RL_FLAG_NOJUMBO flag and introduce RL_FLAG_JUMBOV2 to
mark controllers that use new jumbo frame scheme.
o Configure PCIe max read request size to 4096 for standard frames
and reduce it to 512 for jumbo frames.
o TSO/checksum offloading is not supported for jumbo frames on
these controllers. Reflect it to ioctl handler and driver
initialization.
o Remove unused rl_stats_no_timeout in softc.
o Embed a pointer to structure rl_hwrev into softc to keep track
of controller MTU limitation and remove rl_hwrev in softc since
that information is available through a pointer to structure
rl_hwrev.
Special thanks to Realtek for donating sample hardwares which made
this possible.

RealTek changed TX descriptor format for later controllers so these
controllers require MSS configuration in different location of TX
descriptor. TSO is enabled by default for controllers that use new
descriptor format.
For old controllers, TSO is still disabled by default due to broken
frames under certain conditions but users can enable it.

It seems RTL8169/RTL8168/RTL810xE has a kind of interrupt
moderation mechanism but it is not documented at all. The magic
value dramatically reduced number of interrupts without noticeable
performance drops so apply it to all RTL8169/RTL8169 controllers.
Vendor's FreeBSD driver also applies it to RTL810xE controllers but
their Linux driver explicitly cleared the register, so do not
enable interrupt moderation for RTL810xE controllers.
While I'm here sort 8169 specific registers.

useful counters like rl_missed_pkts is 16 bits quantity which is
too small to hold meaningful information happened in a second. This
means driver should frequently read these counters in order not to
lose accuracy and that approach is too inefficient in driver's
view. Moreover it seems there is no way to trigger an interrupt to
detect counter near-full or wraparound event as well as lacking
clearing the MAC counters. Another limitation of reading the
counters from RealTek controllers is lack of interrupt firing at
the end of DMA cycle of MAC counter read request such that driver
have to poll the end of the DMA which is a time consuming process
as well as inefficient. The more severe issue of the MAC counter
read request is it takes too long to complete the DMA. All these
limitation made maintaining MAC counters in driver impractical. For
now, just provide simple sysctl interface to trigger reading the
MAC counters. These counters could be used to track down driver
issues. Users can read MAC counters maintained in controller with
the following command.
#sysctl dev.re.0.stats=1
While I'm here add check for validity of dma map and allocated
memory before unloading/freeing them.

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).

Previously rl(4) continuously checked whether there are RX events
or TX completions in forever loop. This caused TX starvation under
high RX load as well as consuming too much CPU cycles in the
interrupt handler. If interrupt was shared with other devices which
may be always true due to USB devices in these days, rl(4) also
tried to process the interrupt. This means polling(4) was the only
way to mitigate the these issues.
To address these issues, rl(4) now disables interrupts when it
knows the interrupt is ours and limit the number of iteration of
the loop to 16. The interrupt would be enabled again before exiting
interrupt handler if the driver is still running. Because RX buffer
is 64KB in size, the number of iterations in the loop has nothing
to do with number of RX packets being processed. This change
ensures sending TX frames under high RX load.
RX handler drops a driver lock to pass received frames to upper
stack such that there is a window that user can down the interface.
So rl(4) now checks whether driver is still running before serving
RX or TX completion in the loop.
While I'm here, exit interrupt handler when driver initialized
controller.
With this change, now rl(4) can send frames under high RX load even
though the TX performance is still not good(rl(4) controllers can't
queue more than 4 frames at a time so low TX performance was one of
design issue of rl(4) controllers). It's much better than previous
TX starvation and you should not notice RX performance drop with
this change. Controller still shows poor performance under high
network load but for many cases it's now usable without resorting
to polling(4).

IFF_ALLMULTI/IFF_PROMISC as well as multicast filter configuration.
Rewrite RX filter logic to reduce number of register accesses and
make it handle promiscuous/allmulti toggling without controller
reinitialization.
Previously rl(4) counted on controller reinitialization to reprogram
promiscuous configuration but r211767 resulted in avoiding
controller reinitialization whenever promiscuous mode is toggled.
To address this, keep track of driver's view of interface state and
handle IFF_ALLMULTI/IFF_PROMISC changes without reinitializing
controller. This should fix a regression introduced in r211267.
While I'm here remove unnecessary variable reassignment in ioctl
handler.

register mapping. I'm not sure whether it comes from the fact that
controllers live behind certain PCI brdge(PLX PCI 6152 33BC) and
the bridge has some issues in handling I/O space register mapping.
Unfortunately it's not possible to narrow down to an exact
controller that shows this issue because RealTek used the same PCI
device/revision id again. In theory, it's possible to check parent
PCI bridge device and change rl(4) to use memory space register
mapping if the parent PCI bridge is PLX PCI 6152. But I didn't try
to do that and we wouldn't get much benefit with added complexity.
Blindly switching to use memory space register mapping for rl(4)
may make most old controllers not to work. At least, I don't want
to take potential risk from such change. So use I/O space register
mapping by default but give users chance to override it via a
tunable. The tunable to use memory space register mapping would be
given by adding the following line to /boot/loader.conf file.
dev.rl.%d.prefer_iomap="0"
This change makes P811B quad-port work with this tunable.

According to the specifications AMD/ATI SMBus controller is very
similar to SMBus controller found in PIIX4.
Some notable differences:
o different bit for enabling/signalling regular interrupt mode
o in practice seems to support only polling mode
Thus, intpm driver is modified to support polling-only mode
and to recognize SB700 PCI ID and differences.

CPU for too long period than necessary. Additively, interfaces are kept
polled (in the tick) even if no more packets are available.
In order to avoid such situations a new generic mechanism can be
implemented in proactive way, keeping track of the time spent on any
packet and fragmenting the time for any tick, stopping the processing
as soon as possible.
In order to implement such mechanism, the polling handler needs to
change, returning the number of packets processed.
While the intended logic is not part of this patch, the polling KPI is
broken by this commit, adding an int return value and the new flag
IFCAP_POLLING_NOCOUNT (which will signal that the return value is
meaningless for the installed handler and checking should be skipped).
Bump __FreeBSD_version in order to signal such situation.

command whenever Tx completion interrupt is raised. The Tx poll
bit is cleared when all packets waiting to be transferred have been
processed. This means the second Tx poll command can be silently
ignored as the Tx poll bit could be still active while processing
of previous Tx poll command is in progress.
To address the issue re(4) used to invoke the Tx poll command in Tx
completion handler whenever it detects there are pending packets in
TxQ. However that still does not seem to completely eliminate
watchdog timeouts seen on RealTek PCIe controllers. To fix the
issue kick Tx poll command only after Tx completion interrupt is
raised as this would indicate Tx is now idle state such that it can
accept new Tx poll command again. While here apply this workaround
for PCIe based controllers as other controllers does not seem to
