hi all,
the below diff enables support for jumbo frames on
some newer re(4) devices. i've tested it on 8186D/8111D
and 8186E/8111E chips, which are both able to do 9k
jumbos. it seems to provide a significant speed-up on
simple file transfer tests. most of the important parts
were taken from the freebsd re(4) driver.
feedback welcome, hope this helps someone.
I had started looking into adding support for jumbos to re(4)
but what I have so far does not work; no crashing but the
interface does not receive any packets. What you posted still
needs some work. I'll see if I can get back to it soon-ish but
I have put it aside as it was not intended to be a priority for
the next release.
