datagrams. Traditionally upper stack fragmented packets without
computing TCP/UDP checksum and these datagrams were passed to
driver. But there are chances that other packets slip into the
interface queue in SMP world. If this happens firmware running on
MIPS 4000 processor in the controller would see mixed packets and
it shall send out corrupted packets.
While I'm here simplify checksum offloading setup.

- Testing TSO6 has led me to discover that HW RSC is
a problematic feature, it is ONLY designed to work
with IPv4 in the first place, and if IP forwarding
is done it can't be disabled as LRO in the stack,
also initial testing we've done at Intel shows an
equal performance using TSO[46] on the TX and LRO
on RX, if you ran older code on 82599 or later hardware
you actually could have detrimental performance for
this reason. So I am disabling the feature by default
and all our adapters will now use LRO instead.
- If you have flow control off and multiple queues it
was possible when the buffer of one queue becomes
full that all RX movement is stalled, to eliminate
this problem a feature bit is now set that will allow
packets to be dropped when full rather than stall.
Note, the default is to have flow control on, and this
keeps this from happening.
- Because of the recent fixes in the stack, LRO is now
auto-disabled when problematic, so I have decided to
enable it by default in the capabilities in the driver.
- There are some 1G modules used by some customers, a couple
small tweaks to properly support those in the media code.
- A note: we have now done some testing of TSO6 and using
LRO with IPv6 and it all works great!! Seeing line rate
in both directions in best cases. Thanks bz for your
excellent work!!

in some very degenerate conditions.
However, until ath_rate_form_aggr() is taught to not form aggregates
if ANY selected rate is non-MCS, this can't yet be enabled.
So, just add a comment.
I've tried serialising TX using queues and such but unfortunately
due to how this interacts with the locking going on elsewhere in the
networking stack, the TX task gets delayed, resulting in quite a
noticable throughput loss:
* baseline TCP for 2x2 11n HT40 is ~ 170mbit/sec;
* TCP for TX task in the ath taskq, with the RX also going on - 80mbit/sec;
* TCP for TX task in a separate, second taskq - 100mbit/sec.
So for now I'm going with the Linux wireless stack approach - lock tx
early. The linux code does in the wireless stack, before the 802.11
state stuff happens and before it's punted to the driver.
But TX locking needs to also occur at the driver layer as the TX
completion code _also_ begins to drain the ifnet TX queue.
Whilst I'm here, add some KTR traces for the TX path.
Note:
* This really should be done at the net80211 layer (as well, at least.)
But that'll have to wait for a little more thought to happen.

payload. This means driver has to split a TX buffer into two
pieces of TX buffers when the TX buffer contains both
ethernet/IP/TCP header and partial TCP payload. The controller
does not require all header should be in a TX buffer but driver
forced it to compute IP/TCP header size/offset which is required
parameter to configure DMA descriptor for TSO.
While here, slightly reorder DMA descriptor setup to enhance
readability and remove unnecessary code for TSO(upper stack never
requests TSO when the frame length is less than or equal to MTU).

the power save queue.
* introduce some new ATH_NODE lock protected fields, tracking the
net80211 psq and TIM state;
* when doing buffer transitions - ie, when sending and completing
buffers - check the state of the SWQ and update the TIM appropriately.
* when clearing the TIM bit, if the SWQ is not empty then delay clearing
it.
This is racy, but it's no less racy than the current net80211 power
save queue management code. Specifically, with multiple TX threads,
it's quite plausible that parallel state updates will race and the
TIM will be left in an inconsistent state. I'll address that in
a follow-up commit.
support with ath(4) and VIMAGE.
Right now the VIMAGE code doesn't supply a default vnet context during:
* hotplug attach;
* any device detach.
It special cases kldload/boot time probing (by setting the context to
vnet0) but that doesn't occur when probing devices during a bus rescan -
eg, adding a cardbus card.
These will eventually go away when the VIMAGE support extends to providing
default contexts to hotplug attach/detach.

fragment rate lookups correctly, add a comment describing exactly that.
The assumption in the fragment duration code is the duration of the next
fragment will match the rate used by the current fragment. But I think
a rate lookup is being done for _each_ fragment. For older pre-sample
rate control this would almost always be the case, but for sample
it may be incorrect more often then correct.
