* Refactor the initial learning configuration (port learning, address expiry,
handling address moving between ports, etc, etc) into a separate HAL routine
* and ensure that it's consistent between switch chips - the AR8216,8316,724x,9331
SoCs all share the same switch code.
* .. the AR8327 needs doing - the defaults seem OK for now
* .. the AR9340 is different but it's also programmed now.
* Add support for flushing a single port worth of ATU entries
* Add support for fetching the ATU table from AR8216 and derived chips
Tested:
* AR9344, Carambola 2
TODO:
* Further testing on other chips
* Add AR9340 support
* Add AR8327 support
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.
arswitch_setled() and a number of _global_setup functions did not acquire the
lock before calling arswitch_modifyreg(). With WITNESS enabled this would
instantly panic.
Discovered on a TPLink-3600:
("panic: mutex arswitch not owned at sys/dev/etherswitch/arswitch/arswitch_reg.c:236")

The mdio driver interface is generally useful for devices that require
MDIO without the full MII bus interface. This lifts the driver/interface
out of etherswitch(4), and adds a mdio(4) man page.

This is designed to support the very basic ethernet switch chip behaviour,
specifically:
* accessing switch register space;
* accessing per-PHY registers (for switches that actually expose PHYs);
* basic vlan group support, which applies for the rtl8366 driver but not
for the atheros switches.
This also includes initial support for:
* rtl8366rb support - which is a 10/100/1000 switch which supports
vlan groups;
* Initial Atheros AR8316 switch support - which is a 10/100/1000 switch
which supports an alternate vlan configuration (so the vlan group
methods are stubbed.)
The general idea here is that the switch driver may speak to a variety of
backend busses (mdio, i2c, spi, whatever) and expose:
* If applicable, one or more MDIO busses which ethernet interfaces can
then attach PHYs to via miiproxy/mdioproxy;
* exposes miibusses, one for each port at the moment, so ..
* .. a PHY can be exposed on each miibus, for each switch port, with all
of the existing MII/ifnet framework.
However:
* The ifnet is manually created for now, and it isn't linked into the
interface list, nor can you (currently) send/receive frames on this ifnet.
At some point in the future there may be _some_ support for this, for
switches with a multi-port, isolated mode.
* I'm still in the process of sorting out correct(er) locking.
TODO:
* ray's switch code in zrouter (zrouter.org) includes a much more developed
newbus API that covers the various switch methods, as well as a
capability API so drivers, the switch layer and the userland utility
can properly control the subset of supported features.
The plan is to sort that out later, once the rest of ray's switch drivers
are brought over and extended to export MII busses and PHYs.
