• Release engineering

TODO

• IEEE 802.3 Clause 45. MDIO access:
  • See my slide in AsiaBSDCon 2014 WIP session <http://www.netbsd.org/~msaitoh/Improving_MII_PHY.pdf>
• Atomic access of MII PHY.
  • There is no common framework to do multiple register accesses as atomic.
  • See my slide in AsiaBSDCon 2014 WIP session <http://www.netbsd.org/~msaitoh/Improving_MII_PHY.pdf>
• Change the return value of mii_readreg() and mii_writereg().
  • Currently there is no way to know whether the call was failed(timeout) or not.
• IEEE 802.3az (Energy Efficiency Ethernet(EEE)) supprot
• wm(4)
  • SFP support.
    • The code was written but it doesn't work yet
• Improve puc(4) as console
• Update IXP4xx stuff.
• Support Intel Galileo

Interests

• Build daily autotest system for arm
  • e.g.: <http://releng.netbsd.org/test-results.html>
• Add support dot3 MIB
  • Steal from FreeBSD
• Think about the behavior of ETHERCAP_*
• Fix/improve pmc(1) and PERFCTRS. At least it doesn't work on i386 MP system.
• MI(or common) format or API for "cpuctl identify"
• Comparison of implementations of Ethernet drivers(ethernet_driver)
