Re: BCM5809S support in bnx(4) and brgphy(4)

We should not refer struct bnx_softc in brgphy.c

Your patch might break GENERIC on zaurus, which
has mii via on-chip USB but no PCI bus.

To pass bnx_foo_flag values from parent bnx(4) to child brgphy(4),
we need the following two changes

 - use device properties (proplib) to pass flag values
 - split if_bnxreg.h and move PCI specific stuff
   ("Device State Data", debug macro etc.) into (new) if_bnxvar.h

Ok, I will fix that.

        u_int16_t tx_bd_flags;
        u_int16_t tx_bd_vlan_tag;

It would be clearer to use one uint32_t member with shift ops
for bd_flags and bd_vlan_tag rather than two uint16_t members
with reorder #ifdef while the above one will also work...

I mirrored what the status_block is doing a few lines below.

Also, there is a comment above saying that:

/*
 * The following data structures are generated from RTL code.
 * Do not modify any values below this line.
 */

/****************************************************************************/
/* Do not modify any of the following data structures, they are generated */ /* from RTL code. */ /* */ /* Begin machine generated definitions. */
/****************************************************************************/

IMHO, moving from two uint16_t to one uint_32_t is probably not the best thing to do.

Nonetheless, what would you do? Something along this line?

Looks messy :/

Thanks for your review.
