These bits are obsolete since 58aa35d42975c298ca0adba705c042596303c9f5.

Remove unused and easy to misuse PNP macro parameter
Inspired by r338025, just remove the element size parameter to the
MODULE_PNP_INFO macro entirely. The 'table' parameter is now required to
have correct pointer (or array) type. Since all invocations of the macro
already had this property and the emitted PNP data continues to include the
element size, there is no functional change.
Mostly done with the coccinelle 'spatch' tool:
$ cat modpnpsize0.cocci
@normaltables@
identifier b,c;
expression a,d,e;
declarer MODULE_PNP_INFO;
@@
MODULE_PNP_INFO(a,b,c,d,
-sizeof(d[0]),
e);
@singletons@
identifier b,c,d;
expression a;
declarer MODULE_PNP_INFO;
@@
MODULE_PNP_INFO(a,b,c,&d,
-sizeof(d),
1);
$ rg -l MODULE_PNP_INFO -- sys | \
xargs spatch --in-place --sp-file modpnpsize0.cocci
(Note that coccinelle invokes diff(1) via a PATH search and expects diff to
tolerate the -B flag, which BSD diff does not. So I had to link gdiff into
PATH as diff to use spatch.)

Mainly focus on files that use BSD 2-Clause license, however the tool I
was using misidentified many licenses so this was mostly a manual - error
prone - task.
The Software Package Data Exchange (SPDX) group provides a specification
to make it easier for automated tools to detect and summarize well known
opensource licenses. We are gradually adopting the specification, noting
that the tags are considered only advisory and do not, in any way,
superceed or replace the license texts.

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).

sets GEM_MAC_RX_CONFIG based on sc_mac_rxcfg which in turn is initialized
to zero, before reading the supposedly default configuration we were
effectively not basing sc_mac_rxcfg and thus GEM_MAC_RX_CONFIG on the
default configuration. Solve this by calling gem_setladrf() after reading
in the default configuration of GEM_MAC_RX_CONFIG. This also avoids the
need to distinguish whether gem_setladrf() should enable the RX MAC again
and should be slightly more correct as we're now doing all of the RX MAC
configuration in the intended step.

filter and restore the previous content of GEM_MAC_RX_CONFIG. While at it

- Increment if_iqdrops instead of if_ierrors in case of RX buffer allocation

- According to the GEM datasheet the RX MAC should also be disabled in
gem_setladrf() before changing its configuration.
- Add error messages to gem_disable_{r,t}x() and take advantage of these

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).

the PHYs as some PHY drivers use it (but probably shouldn't). How
gem(4) has worked with brgphy(4) on powerpc without this so far is
unclear to me.
- Introduce a dying flag which is set during detach and checked in
gem_ioctl() in order to prevent active BPF listeners to clear
promiscuous mode which may lead to the tick callout being restarted
which will trigger a panic once it's actually gone.
- In gem_stop() reset rather than just disable the transmitter and
receiver in order to ensure we're not unloading DMA maps still in
use by the hardware. [1]
- The blanking time is specified in PCI clocks so we should use twice
the value when operating at 66MHz.
- Spell some 2 as ETHER_ALIGN and a 19 as GEM_STATUS_TX_COMPLETION_SHFT
to make the actual intentions clear.
- As we don't unload the peak attempts counter ignore its overflow
interrupts.
- Remove a stale setting of a variable to GEM_TD_INTERRUPT_ME which
isn't used afterwards.
- For optimum performance increment the TX kick register in multiples
of 4 if possible as suggested by the documentation.
- Partially revert r164931; drivers should only clear the watchdog
timer if all outstanding TX descriptors are done.
- Fix some debugging strings.
- Add a missing BUS_DMASYNC_POSTWRITE in gem_rint().
- As the error paths in the interrupt handler are generally unlikely
predict them as false.
- Add support for the SBus version of the GEM controller. [2]
- Add some lock assertions.
- Improve some comments.
- Fix some more or less cosmetic issues in the code of the PCI front-end.
- Change some softc members to be unsigned where more appropriate and
remove unused ones.

o Given that gem_load_txmbuf() is allowed to fail resulting in a packet
drop also for quite some time now implement the functionality of
gem_txcksum() by means of m_pullup(9), which de-obfuscates the code
and allows to always retrieve the correct length of the IP header.
o Add missing BUS_DMASYNC_PREREAD when syncing the control DMA maps in
gem_rint() and gem_start_locked().
o Correct some bus_barrier(9) calls to do a read/write barrier as we
do a read after a write. Add some missing ones in gem_mii_readreg()
and gem_mii_writereg().
o According to the Apple GMAC driver, the GEM ASIC specification and
the OpenSolaris eri(7D) the TX FIFO threshold has to be set to 0x4ff
for the Gigabit variants and 0x100 for the ERI in order do avoid TX
underruns.
o In gem_init_locked():
- be conservative and enable the RX and TX MACs,
- don't clear GEM_LINK otherwise we don't ever mark the link as up
again if gem_init_locked() is called from gem_watchdog(),
- remove superfluous setting of sc_ifflags.
o Don't bother to check whether the interface is running or whether its
queue is empty before calling gem_start_locked() in gem_tint(), the
former will check these anyway.
o Call gem_start_locked() in gem_watchdog() in order to try to get
some more packets going.
o In gem_mii_writereg() after reseting the PCS restore its configuration.

to gem_attach() as the former access softc members not yet initialized
at that time and gem_reset() actually is enough to stop the chip. [1]
o Revise the use of gem_bitwait(); add bus_barrier() calls before calling
gem_bitwait() to ensure the respective bit has been written before we
starting polling on it and poll for the right bits to change, f.e. even
though we only reset RX we have to actually wait for both GEM_RESET_RX
and GEM_RESET_TX to clear. Add some additional gem_bitwait() calls in
places we've been missing them according to the GEM documentation.
Along with this some excessive DELAYs, which probably only were added
because of bugs in gem_bitwait() and its use in the first place, as
well as as have of an gem_bitwait() reimplementation in gem_reset_tx()
were removed.
o Add gem_reset_rxdma() and use it to deal with GEM_MAC_RX_OVERFLOW errors
more gracefully as unlike gem_init_locked() it resets the RX DMA engine
only, causing no link loss and the FIFOs not to be cleared. Also use it
deal with GEM_INTR_RX_TAG_ERR errors, with previously were unhandled.
This was based on information obtained from the Linux GEM and OpenSolaris
ERI drivers.
o Turn on workarounds for silicon bugs in the Apple GMAC variants.
This was based on information obtained from the Darwin GMAC and Linux GEM
drivers.
o Turn on "infinite" (i.e. maximum 31 * 64 bytes in length) DMA bursts.
This greatly improves especially RX performance.
o Optimize the RX path, this consists of:
- kicking the receiver as soon as we've a spare descriptor in gem_rint()
again instead of just once after all the ready ones have been handled;
- kicking the receiver the right way, i.e. as outlined in the GEM
documentation in batches of 4 and by pointing it to the descriptor
after the last valid one;
- calling gem_rint() before gem_tint() in gem_intr() as gem_tint() may
take quite a while;
- doubling the size of the RX ring to 256 descriptors.
Overall the RX performance of a GEM in a 1GHz Sun Fire V210 was improved
from ~100Mbit/s to ~850Mbit/s.
o In gem_add_rxbuf() don't assign the newly allocated mbuf to rxs_mbuf
before calling bus_dmamap_load_mbuf_sg(), if bus_dmamap_load_mbuf_sg()
fails we'll free the newly allocated mbuf, unable to recycle the
previous one but a NULL pointer dereference instead.
o In gem_init_locked() honor the return value of gem_meminit().
o Simplify gem_ringsize() and dont' return garbage in the default case.
Based on OpenBSD.
o Don't turn on MAC control, MIF and PCS interrupts unless GEM_DEBUG is
defined as we don't need/use these interrupts for operation.
o In gem_start_locked() sync the DMA maps of the descriptor rings before
every kick of the transmitter and not just once after enqueuing all
packets as the NIC might instantly start transmitting after we kicked
it the first time.
o Keep state of the link state and use it to enable or disable the MAC
in gem_mii_statchg() accordingly as well as to return early from
gem_start_locked() in case the link is down. [3]
o Initialize the maximum frame size to a sane value.
o In gem_mii_statchg() enable carrier extension if appropriate.
o Increment if_ierrors in case of an GEM_MAC_RX_OVERFLOW error and in
gem_eint(). [3]
o Handle IFF_ALLMULTI correctly; don't set it if we've turned promiscuous
group mode on and don't clear the flag if we've disabled promiscuous
group mode (these were mostly NOPs though). [2]
o Let gem_eint() also report GEM_INTR_PERR errors.
o Move setting sc_variant from gem_pci_probe() to gem_pci_attach() as
device probe methods are not supposed to touch the softc.
o Collapse sc_inited and sc_pci into bits for sc_flags.
o Add CTASSERTs ensuring that GEM_NRXDESC and GEM_NTXDESC are set to
legal values.
o Correctly set up for 802.3x flow control, though #ifdef out the code
that actually enables it as this needs more testing and mainly a proper
framework to support it.
o Correct and add some conversions from hard-coded functions names to
__func__ which were borked or forgotten in if_gem.c rev. 1.42.
o Use PCIR_BAR instead of a homegrown macro.
o Replace sc_enaddr[6] with sc_enaddr[ETHER_ADDR_LEN].
o In gem_pci_attach() in case attaching fails release the resources in
the opposite order they were allocated.
o Make gem_reset() static to if_gem.c as it's not needed outside that
module.
o Remove the GEM_GIGABIT flag and the associated code; GEM_GIGABIT was
never set and the associated code was in the wrong place.
o Remove sc_mif_config; it was only used to cache the contents of the
respective register within gem_attach().
o Remove the #ifdef'ed out NetBSD/OpenBSD code for establishing a suspend
hook as it will never be used on FreeBSD.
o Also probe Apple Intrepid 2 GMAC and Apple Shasta GMAC, add support for
Apple K2 GMAC. Based on OpenBSD.
o Add support for Sun GBE/P cards, or in other words actually add support
for cards based on GEM to gem(4). This mainly consists of adding support
for the TBI of these chips. Along with this the PHY selection code was
rewritten to hardcode the PHY number for certain configurations as for
example the PHY of the on-board ERI of Blade 1000 shows up twice causing
no link as the second incarnation is isolated.
These changes were ported from OpenBSD with some additional improvements
and modulo some bugs.
o Add code to if_gem_pci.c allowing to read the MAC-address from the VPD on
systems without Open Firmware.
This is an improved version of my variant of the respective code in
if_hme_pci.c
o Now that gem(4) is MI enable it for all archs.

GEMs is unable to discriminate UDP from TCP packets such that
it can generate 0x0000 checksum value for the UDP datagram. So the
UDP checksum offload was disabled by default. You can enable it
by setting link0 flag with ifconfig(8).
o bus_dma(9) clean up. It now correctly set number of required DMA
segments/size and removed incorrect use of BUS_DMA_ALLOCNOW flag
in static allocations done via bus_dmamem_alloc(9).
o Implemented ALTQ(9) support.
o Implemented Tx side bus_dmamap_load_mbuf_sg(9) which can remove
several book keeping chores orginated from call-back mechanism.
Therefore gem_txdma_callback() was removed and its functionality
was reimplemented in gem_load_txmbuf().
o Don't set GEM_TD_START_OF_PACKET flag until all remaining mbuf
chains are set. I think it was a long standing bug and it caused
fluctuating interrupts/CPU usage patterns while netperf test
is in progress. Previously it seems that we race with the device.
Because I don't have a documentation for GEM I'm not sure this is
correct but almost all other documentations I have stated this
implications on setting SOP mark in descriptor ring(e.g. hme(4)).
o Borrowed gem_defrag() from ath(4) which is supposed to be much
faster than m_defrag(9) since it's not need to defrag all
mbuf chains.
o gem_load_txmbuf() was changed to allow passed mbuf chains to free.
Caller of gem_load_txmbuf() correctly handles freed mbuf chains.
o In gem_start_locked(), added checks for availability of Tx
descriptors before trying to load DMA maps which could save CPU
cycles when number of available descriptors are low. Also, simplyfy
IFF_DRV_OACTIVE detection logic.
o Removed hard-coded function names in CTR macros and replaced it
with __func__.
o Moved statistics counter register access to gem_tick() to reduce
number of PCI bus accesses. There is no reason to update statistics
counters in interrupt handler.
o Removed unnecessary call of gem_start_locked() in gem_ioctl().
