- Don't capitalize jumbo.
- Don't try to keep track of jumbo frame sizes in the pages. Users can
use `ifconfig hwfeatures' to determine what the hardware supports.

Bring this up to date for recent additions to if_em

Mention the TX checksum offload support.

Remove mentioning specific systems with embedded Ethernet chipsets or
LOM in vge(4) which is pretty vague and common to many Ethernet chipsets.

ok kettenis@

Mention Soekris hw.

ok sthen@

add I350

mention 82580 and also mention the 8257[789] phy models as the
pch devices are normally referenced this way instead of the pch model.

document support for 82583V: according to cvs, yasuoka added this 19.9.10;
diff from Steffen Daode Nurpmeso

Improve the layout by moving the paragraph describing the hardware features
supported by the driver below the list of supported hardware. From Brad.

tweak previous;

gcu(4) manpage, add information bout EP80579 support to em(4) as well

'just go ahead' deraadt@

List some newer supported hardware, from Brad.

Add 82574L to the list of supported MACs.

Document some of the newer Intel cards that are now supported. Also add
two supermicro ones that should work (actually I developped it on the first
supermicro one).

Update for VLAN tag insertion and stripping support.

Add 82571GB/82572GI to the list.

"The devices can also have a 82571GB or 82572GI marking (instead of

Add 82571GB/82572GI to the list.

"The devices can also have a 82571GB or 82572GI marking (instead of
82571EB or 82572EI); the 82571GB and 82572GI devices are used only on
Intel network interface adapters. The 82571GB is functionally equivalent
to the 82571EB and the 82572GI is functionally equivalent to the
82572EI."

From ftp://download.intel.com/design/network/specupdt/82571EB_72EI.pdf

Indeed the 82572GI shows up as the "Intel PRO/1000 PT (82572EI)" pci id.

Add newer HP and Sun Gigabit Ethernet adapters.

convert to new .Dd format;

add the HP ProLiant NC360T PCI Express Dual Port Gigabit NIC (tested
ok), the NC340T is a quad port NIC, and the NC7170/NC7170LP are dual
port NICs.

add two newer Intel quad port adapters.

the start of making .Nd lines more useful for section4;

input from nick jsg deraadt, maybe some others

mention the 82562V chipset.

add 1000BaseLX
