except for BGE_CHIPID_BCM5700_B0, which is buggy.
- All bge(4) supported hardware, has a bug that produces incorrect checksums
on Ethernet runts. However, in case of a transmitted packet, the latter can
be padded with zeroes, and the checksum would be correct. (Probably chip
includes the pad data into checksum). In case of receive, we just don't
trust checksum data in received runts.

EEPROM status.
While here, add a check whether EEPROM read is successful.

- removed unused funtion bge_handle_events().
- removed bus_dmamap_destroy(9) calls for DMA maps created by
bus_dmamem_alloc(9). This should fix panics seen on sparc64
in device detach.
- added check for parent DMA tag creation.
- switched to use __NO_STRICT_ALIGNMENT as bge(4) supports all
architectures.
- added missing bus_dmamap_sync(9) in bge_txeof().
- added missing bus_dmamap_sync(9) in bge_encap().
- corrected memory synchronization operation on status block.
As the driver just read status block that was DMAed by NIC it
should use BUS_DMASYNC_POSTREAD. Likewise the driver does not
need to write status block back, so remove unnecessary
bus_dmamap_sync(9) calls in bge_intr().
- corrected memory synchronization operation on RX return ring.
The driver only read the block so remove unnecessary
bus_dmamap_sync(9) in bge_rxeof().
- force bus_dmamap_sync(9) for only modified descriptors. Blindly
synching all desciptor rings would reduce performance.
- call bus_dmamap_sync(9) for DMA maps that were modified in bge_rxeof().

the addition of pci_find_extcap().

code can be shared across branches.

attach to the hostb driver instead. This means that agp can now be loaded
at runtime (in theory at least). Also, the drivers no longer have to
explicity call device_verbose() to cancel out any earlier calls to
device_quiet() by the hostb(4) driver (this shows a limitation in new-bus,
drivers really shouldn't be doing device_quiet() until they know they are
going to drive that device, i.e. in attach).

to implement the bus and PCI kobj interfaces such that other drivers can
attach to it and transparently act as if their parent device is the PCI
bus (for the most part).
drivers already map sections into KVA as needed anyway. Note that this
will probably break the nvidia driver, but I will coordinate to get that
fixed.

optionally returns the offset of that capability. If the capability is

- Give up endianess support and switch to native-endian format for
accessing hardware structures. In fact embedded processor for
BCM57xx is big-endian architure(MIPS) and it requires native-endian
format for NIC structures.The NIC performs necessary byte/word
swapping depending on programmed endian type.
- With above changes all htole16/htole32 calls were gone.
- Remove bge_vhandle member in softc and changed to use explicit
register access. This may add additional performance penalty
that than that of previous memory access. But most of the access
is performed on initialization phase(e.g. RCB setup), it would be
negligible.
Due to incorrect use of bus_dma(9) in bge(4) it still panics sparc64
system in device detach path. The issue would be fixed in next patch.

1. Implement a large set of ioctl shims so that the Linux management apps
from LSI will work. This includes infrastructure to support adding, deleting
and rescanning arrays at runtime. This is based on work from Doug Ambrosko,
heavily augmented by LSI and Yahoo.
2. Implement full 64-bit DMA support. Systems with more than 4GB of RAM
can now operate without the cost of bounce buffers. Cards that cannot do
64-bit DMA will automatically revert to using bounce buffers. This option
can be forced off by setting the 'hw.amr.force_sg32" tunable in the loader.
It should only be turned off for debugging purposes. This work was sponsored
by Yahoo.
3. Streamline the command delivery and interrupt handler paths after
much discussion with Dell and LSI. The logic now closely matches the
intended design, making it both more robust and much faster. Certain
i/o failures under heavy load should be fixed with this.
4. Optimize the locking. In the interrupt handler, the card can be checked
for completed commands without any locks held, due to the handler being
implicitely serialized and there being no need to look at any shared data.
Only grab the lock to return the command structure to the free pool. A
small optimization can still be made to collect all of the completions
together and then free them together under a single lock.
Items 3 and 4 significantly increase the performance of the driver. On an
LSI 320-2X card, transactions per second went from 13,000 to 31,000 in my
testing with these changes. However, these changes are still fairly
experimental and shouldn't be merged to 6.x until there is more testing.
Thanks to Doug Ambrosko, LSI, Dell, and Yahoo for contributing towards
this.
to use busdma. Unlike most of the other drivers, but similar to the
if_em driver, pre-allocate the dmamaps at init time instead of allocating
them on the fly when descriptors need to be filled. This isn't ideal right
now because a map is allocated for every descriptor slot in the tx, rx, mini,
and jumbo rings (which is a lot!) in order to simplify the bookkeeping, even
though the driver might support filling only a subset of those slots.
Luckily, maps are typically NULL on i386 and amd64, so the cost isn't
very high. It could be an issue with sparc64, but the driver isn't endian
clean either, and that is a much bigger problem to solve first.
Note that jumbo frame support is under-tested, and I'm not even sure if
it till really works correctly given the evil VM magic that is does.
The changes here attempt to preserve the existing semanitcs.
