nlge(4) is supposed to deprecate rge(4) for Broadcom XLR when it was
introduced 5 years ago.
rge doesn't build on -CURRENT due to MII changes. All the XLR kernel confs
use nlge. Let's get rid of the old driver for FreeBSD 11. We can use
10-STABLE or SVN to go back and look at the old driver if needed.

years for head. However, it is continuously misused as the mpsafe argument
for callout_init(9). Deprecate the flag and clean up callout_init() calls
to make them more consistent.

1) 32-bit assignment are expected to always be atomic.
2) Release/acquire memory barrier semantics doesn't seem to be needed here.
So a simple assignment can be used.
Remove unused port_set_counter() while here, it also used to mis-use
atomic_set_int().

- Wakeup multiple threads per core using message ring watermark interrupts.
- Update message ring handler registration, use the real device station id
for registering interrupts.
- rge/nlge: update for the new message ring registration code.
- rge/nlge: use 2 message ring stations for incoming packets, this will
allow more messages to be queued.
- nlge: comment fixes, remove unused variable
- style and whitespace fixes
- Move RMI MIPS extension to atomic increment word (LDADDWU) to common
header file sys/mips/rmi/rmi_mips_exts.h
- Fix xlr_ldaddwu() for 64 bit, it is a 32 bit operation, use
unsigned int* instead of unsigned long* argument
- Provide dummy xlr_enable_kx/xlr_restore_kx for n32 and n64.
- Provide xlr_paddr_ld() instead of xlr_paddr_lw(), so that the
descriptor formats are same for 32 and 64 bit
- update nlge and rge for the changes
These changes are also needed by the security driver which will be
added later.
- Remove sync from msgrng_send, sync needs to be called just once before
sending.
- Fix retry logic - don't reload registers when retrying in message_send,
also fix check for send pending fail.
- remove unused message_send_block_fast()
- merge message_receive_fast() to message_receive
- style(9) fixes, and comments
- rge and nlge updated for the sys/mips/rmi/msgring.h changes
Fix message ring send path:
- define msgrng_access_enable() which disables local interrupts
and enables message ring access. Also define msgrng_restore() which
restores interrupts
- remove all other msgrng enable/disable macros, no need of critical_enter
and other locking here.
- message_send() fixup: re-read status until pending bit clears
- message_send_retry() fixup: retry only few times with interrupts disabled
- Fix up message_send/message_send_retry callers - call
msgrng_access_enable() and msgrng_restore() correctly so that interrupts
are not disabled for long.
- removed unused and obsolete code from sys/mips/rmi/msgring.h
- some style fixes - more later
rge.c (XLR GMAC driver):
- updated for the message ring changes
- remove unused message_send_block()
- retry on credit failure, this is not a permanent failure when credits
are configured correctly. Add panic if credits are not available to
send for a long time.
unused files.
- remove clock.c and clock.h, these are not used after the new timer
code was added.
- remove duplicated include files, fix header file ordering, remove
some unneeded includes.
- rename mips/rmi/shared_structs.h which contains the RMI boot loader
interface to mips/rmi/rmi_boot_info.h. Remove unused files
mips/rmi/shared_structs_func.h and sys/mips/rmi/shared_structs_offsets.h
- merge mips/rmi/xlrconfig.h and mips/rmi/rmi_mips_exts.h, and remove
duplicated functions.
- nlge - minor change to remove unneeded argument.
- Add FreeBSD svn keyword for headers
- Adds re-partitioning TLB per core for enabled threads.
- Adds hardware thread id to cpuid mapping
- updates rge driver packet distribution and message ring handling
threads to be started based on hardware thread id.
- remove unused early debugging code to set control registers.
- coding style fixes

am now able to run 32 cores ok.. but I still will hang
on buildworld with a NFS problem. I suspect I am missing
a patch for the netlogic rge driver.
JC check and see if I am missing anything except your
core-mask changes

have code that detects this and makes two
transmit descriptors. However its possible
that the algorithm detects when the second
page is not used (when the data aligns perfectly
to the bottom of the page). This caused a 0
len descriptor to be added which locks up the
rge device. Skip such things with a continue.
JC provided this patch... Thanks JC :-)

Copy sys/dev/rmi to sys/mips/rmi/dev [sic]. For devices that are on
only one SoC, or family of SoC, we place them under sys/<vendor>/dev.
I'll fix the build problems this causes as best I can since rmi kernel
require external toolchains due to lack of support for rmi op-codes in
the ancient binutils we have in the tree.
