New Revision: 187449
URL: http://svn.freebsd.org/changeset/base/187449
Log:
- MFC: 154328
Add the HP NC7771 adapter to the list of known products.
- MFC: 162584
Add documentation on the new bge tunable. Also put the tunable docs
into a separate section.
- MFC: 162825
Spelling
- MFC: 169881 (bge.4 part)
Remove BCM5704S specific tunable (hw.bge.fake_autoneg) and auto-detect
the condition.
- MFC: 174903
Mention support for the 5722 driver in bge.4 as well.
- MFC: 187315
Sync the description of jumbo frame support with reality as of r187310;
it's also supported with BCM5702 (matched by BGE_ASICREV_BCM5703) but
bge(4) currently doesn't with neither BCM5714 nor BCM5780.
