Version 10.62.1.2  November 29, 2007
----------------------------------------
  1. Problem:
       CQ32720,32118 Link up indication when actual link is down.
     Cause:
       The driver may apply the fix done in 10.62.1.1 to non-affected devices.
     Change:
       Only apply the fix to the affected devices correctly.
     Impact:
       None.

     cause:
       Link detection timing would change when ASF is enabled on certain
       systems that would trigger an race condition in the driver unload path.
       The driver will wait for the link detection to complete before unload can
       take place but the detection will not complete.
     Change:
       Change the unload path to avoid waiting for link detection to finish if timed out.
     Impact:
       None.

  5. Problem:
       CQ31456 Jumbo Frame INF keyword.
     Cause:
       The ndis driver does not use standardized INF keyword for Jumbo Frame.

       The GPHY link status register does not always reflect the correct
       link status on some 5715S based designs. Please refer to CQ32720 for more
       information.
     Change:
       Change the driver to read link status from other registers as suggested.
       Please refer to CQ32720 for more information.
     Impact:
       None.

Version 10.62.1.0  Oct 31, 2007

Version 10.62.0.0  September 17, 2007
----------------------------------------
  1.  Bug Fix

      CG 31393 - Loopback test does not work on the 5722 LOM

      Cause:
      CQ 27832 change should not be done when in loopback mode.

      Change:
      Avoid setting PHY trim registers when in gigabit loopback mode.


Version 10.61.0.0B  September 10, 2007
----------------------------------------
  1.  Enhancement request

      CQ 30668 - During INF file verification, a mis-matched labeling in
      NT services section for a specific OEM was noticed.

Version 10.60  August 30, 2007
----------------------------------------
   1. Problem
        CQ28879 - The issue manifests itself as a non-maskable interrupt (NMI)
        blue screen during system reboot.
      Cause:
        In vista, TCP could make call into the miniport
        after driver's shutdown routine had been called (as a result of shutting
        down the system) in certain edge cases. This happens if a TCP internal
        timer expired after (or at about the same time) the driver's shutdown
        got called.
      Change:
        Changed the driver's OID handler to detect if it's safe to touch the
        hardware by taking into the shutdown state into account.

Version 10.47.0.0B   August xx, 2007

---------------------------------
   1. Bug Fix
      CQ31091:  Some INFs for NDIS 6 Using Incorrect Registry
      Value for 1 Gb Full Setting

      Cause:
      Non-contigious values in NDIS6 implementation

      Fix:
      Changed three '5's to '6' in INF files


Version 10.47.0.0   August 20, 2007

---------------------------------
   1. Enhancement
      CQ29991 Allow selection of 1Gbps full duplex

      Cause:
         Change in mappings with NDIS 6 doesn't allow NDIS 5 implementation
         to work.

      Change:
         Changed all 8200 to 6 (1Gbps Full Duplex) in infs. Change driver to
         map NDIS 6 value of 6 to 8200 (0x2008), our internal value.


Version 10.46.0.0D   August 17, 2007

---------------------------------
   1. Bug fix

      CQ30935: Rx/Tx performance is low when testing in chariot setup with
      one/two/three endpoints on some OEM platforms

      Cause:
      Enabling RSS actually reduces performance in some scenario.
      This is seen for example during performance tests with only
      a few TCP connections. This is also seen on competing
      products.

      Change:
      The previous fix removed support for RSS completely for some
      platforms which is not desired. In this version, RSS is only
      disabled, and can be re-enabled if needed.

   2. Bug Fix

      CQ31064: Unable to select 10/100Mbps speeds for 5714c & 5703c chips

      Cause:

---------------------------------
1. Enhancement
       CQ30670 - disable LowPower mode for a requested 4part ID, when WOL is
       disabled and ASF is not present.

      Cause:
        For the 5787M, when ASF is not present and WOL is disabled, on entering S3,
        driver will allow bootcode to put the LOM into IDDQ
        LowPower Mode.

          An OEM request that IDDQ LowPwr mode be disabled for one selected
          platform.

      Change:
        Prevent the bootcode from putting our LOM into IDDQ LowPwr mode on
        entering S3 for the requested platform.

Version 10.45.0.0d  July 18, 2007

---------------------------------

   1. Bug fix

      CQ29823: Rx/Tx performance is low when testing in chariot setup with
      one/two/three endpoints on some OEM platforms

      Cause:
      Enabling RSS actually reduces performance in some scenario.
      This is seen for example during performance tests with only
      a few TCP connections. This is also seen on competing
      products.

      Change:
      The previous fix removed support for RSS completely for some
      platforms which is not desired. In this version, RSS is only
      disabled, and can be re-enabled if needed.

      Cause:  Trying to allocate 640KB for LSO coalesce buffers can fail and
      retrying by reducing each attempt by 64KB will give the appearance that
      the system is not running properly.

      Change: Added code to determine amount of memory installed in the system
      and made available to Windows.  If the largest block exceeds 512MB,
      allow request to be for the full 640KB, otherwise only request 64KB.

        Fixed the typo.


Version 10.34.0.0 April 06, 2007
----------------------------------------
   1. Problem:
        CQ28745 - Phy Loopback failed in SR71 Blade Server 5906m LOM when
        cable is not present
      Cause:
        LM_SetupSnowLoopback() is resetting the PHY
        at the start of the loopback test. This reset was removed
        from the NDIS5.1 code base in the past, but not from the NDIS6
        code base.
      Change:
        Removed the spurious PHY reset in LM_SetupSnowLoopback().
      Impact:
        None.

   2. Problem:
        CQ28192 - Sending large pings leads to long round trip times on 5788.
      Cause:
        The interrupt service routine was not handling this device
        properly.
      Change:
        Modified the interrupt service routine to handle the 5788 correctly.
      Impact:
        None.

   3.  Enhancement Request:
        CQ28816 Add "L1 ASPM debounce" feature.
      Cause:
        There is an interoperability issue between the Broadcom
        LAN controllers and the Intel ICH7/8 that may cause the
        Rx-performance at 100 Mbps to be lower then expected when
        L1 ASPM is enabled along with system CPU C3E, or C4, or C4E
        or higher state.
      Change:
        Along with the device driver change here, that will drive
        the PCI-E link less aggressively into L1 ASPM during
        network stress, the user must enable the feature
        by setting a configurable option inside the LAN
        controllers NVRAM.
      Impact:
        There is no known impact from enabling this
        feature.  As a matter of fact, enabling this
        feature will increase the power savings in
        case the system has disabled 'L1 ASPM' due to
        the interoperability issue described above.


Version 10.33.0.0 March 07, 2007
----------------------------------------
   1.  Enhancement Request:
        Apply EPA settings to certain OEM designs. Please refer to

        Added new 4 part OEM PCI ID support in OEM specific
        NDIS INF files.
      Impact:
        Resolve requested Enhancement Request.

   4. Problem:
        Fixed minor errors in implementing fix for CQ28493 and CQ28506.
      Cause:
        Wrong friendly name, and missing registry keys.
      Change:
        Fixed the friendly name (CQ28506), and added the requested
        registry key (CQ28493).
      Impact:
        None.

   5. Problem:
        CQ28458 - System hang when running BACS/Diagnostics Test
      Cause:
        There is a potential for a race condition to occur between the
        LAN controller's Interrupt Service Routine (ISR) and its
        scheduled Deferred Procedure Call (DPC) when running the Broadcom
        Diagnostics utility (BACS).  The affected code segment
        responsible for the problem is only executed when running BACS.
        Due to the fact that this issue requires a very specific timing
        between the ISR and the DPC this problem it is rather intermittent,
        or may not surface at all on particular systems.
        Nevertheless, when this condition occurs an ISR-storm gets triggered
        what will cause the LAN controller to saturate the system CPU and
        hang the system.
      Change:
        Modified specific code segments inside the device driver that
        get executed when running BACS in order to not enable interrupts
        inside the LAN controller twice what will prevent ISR-storms to occur.
      Impact:
        All BRCM chips are affected by the problem equally.  There are no
        known side effects from fixing this issue.

   6. Problem:
        5755/5756 Bugcheck D1 on LH Server with 8 or more CPUs if RSS is
        enabled.
      Cause:
        The driver doesn't always calculate the correct receive ring index
        in the case of system's number of CPUs is greater than the number of
        receive rings.
      Change:
        Modified specific code segments so that the driver can correctly
        calculate the receive ring number.
      Impact:
        There is no known side effect from fixing this issue.


Version 10.32 Feb 08, 2007
----------------------------------------
   1. Problem:
        CQ28412 - Low power mode in 5755M does not work under Vista.
      Cause:
        The Ndis driver was halting the embedded cpu when Wake Up Frame is enabled
        when the driver is being unloaded.
      Change:
        Modified the Ndis driver to only halt the embedded cpu when the system is
        transitioning to S3/S4 and Wake Up Frame is enabled.
      Impact:
        None.

   2.  Enhancement Request:
        CQ28429 Add PCI 4 part Device ID to OEM specific
        INF installation files.
      Cause:
        OEM request.
      Change:
        Added new 4 part OEM PCI ID support in OEM specific
        NDIS INF files.
      Impact:
        Resolve CQ28429 Enhancement Request.

Version 10.31 Feb 01, 2007
----------------------------------------
   1. Problem:
        CQ28164 - 5721/5751/5752 fails phy loopback test.
      Cause:
        Change for CQ26645 is not compatable with phy loopback mode.
      Change:
        Modified the phy loopback code to disable Auto-Mdix when
        phy loopback is enabled.
      Impact:
        None.

   2. Problem:
        When the ndis driver loads on a 5755M, 5787M or 5752M with the cable
        unplugged. The GPHY DLL was not being powered down.
      Cause:
        Corner case in the GPHY DLL power down code.
      Change:
        Corrected GPHY DLL power down code to properly handle the corner case.
      Impact:
        None.

   3. Problem:
        LH-6001 checked build assert.
      Cause:
        Corner case in the failure of allocating shared memory
        for coalescing pool.
      Change:
        Freed allocated resources when OS failed to return
        shared memory at initialization.
      Impact:
        None.

   4. Problem:
        PreFast warnings (DDK 6000).
      Cause:
        DDK 6000 introduces new PF warnings.
      Change:
        Suppress some of warnings. No CODE change.
      Impact:
        None.

        Add support for 5756ME and 5722 devices.
      Cause:
        Please refer to MRD for details.
      Change:
        Added PNP IDs to inf files.
      Impact:
        None.


Version 10.8b ** Inf Update Only ** January 9, 2007
----------------------------------------
   1. Problem:
        CQ#27306 - Adding WOL support for 5715S, for Tyan S3997,
        5715S A3.
      Cause:
        WakeOnTbi should be applied to BCM5714SWol install section.
      Change:
        Change the WOL option from ParamsWoL to ParamWakeOnTbi
        in the BCM5714SWol install section of the inf files.
      Impact:
        None.

Version 10.8a ** Inf Update Only ** January 8, 2007
----------------------------------------
   1. Problem:
        CQ28059 Missing friendly strings in inf file.
      Cause:
        Changes ported over from release 9.7 were not complete.
      Change:
        Added missing friendly strings into the inf file.
      Impact:
        None.

Version 10.8  December 18, 2006
----------------------------------------
   1. Problem:
        CQ27896 System CPU busy after finishing CPU test in BACS.
      Cause:
        The driver clears the status tag in host memory whem resuming
        the driver. This causes problem if MSI is active because
        MSI will not de-assert if the latest tag is not written
        to interrupt mailbox to ack the interrupt. The re-generated
        MSI interrupt doesn't associate with a status block update.
        One-shot MSI implemented on newer chips would solve this problem
        but it's not available to older PCIe chips.
      Change:
        Modify the driver not to clear the status tag after finishing
        diagnose.
      Impact:
        None.

Version 10.7  December 14, 2006
----------------------------------------
   1. Problem:
        CQ27776 5906 intermittently fails BACS Phy Loopback test.
      Cause:
        The 5906 phy auto-mdix feature needs to be disabled during phy
        loopback test.
      Change:
        Modified the ndis driver to disable auto-mdix during phy
        loopback on 5906.
      Impact:
        None.

   2. Problem:
        CQ27874 5906 -remove LSO support from sys and INF file
       (just like for 5906m)
      Cause:
        Refer to the CQ for more information
      Change:
        Modified the ndis driver and inf file to not report this
        feature to the operating system during ndis driver initialization.
      Impact:
        None.

   3. Problem:
        CQ27832 5755M failing IEEE compliance on certain OEM platforms.
      Cause:
        The phy trim registers needed to be modified by the ndis device driver.
      Change:
        Modified the ndis driver to program the phy trim registers per
        recommendation from phy engineering team.
      Impact:
        None.

   4. Problem:
        CQ#27795 remove "interrupt moderation" from
        "advanced driver properties" for OEM platforms.
      Cause:
        Refer to the CQ27795 for more information
      Change:
        For affected platforms, we want to hide the "interrupt moderation"
        option inside the driver advanced properties.
      Impact:
        None.


Version 10.6  December 8, 2006
----------------------------------------
   1. Problem:
        CQ27759 5906 fails WHQL packet filter test.
      Cause:
        The 5906 uses a different mechanism to filter broadcast
        packets from previous controllers.
      Change:
        Modified the ndis driver to properly filter broadcast packets
        on 5906.
      Impact:
        None.

Version 10.5  December 4, 2006
----------------------------------------
   1. Problem:
        CQ#27413 - implement restrictive AutoNeg in NDIS6 driver.
      Cause:
        The feature hasn't been populated from the NDIS5x driver because
        MSFT make the auto neg standardized keyword.
      Change:
        Modify driver translated non-standardized values to recognize
        restrictive auto negotiation settings.
      Impact:
        None.

   2. Problem:
        Low throughput performance on DosXX-5906M with ASPM enabled.
      Change:
        The low performance we are seeing is due to a design flaw
        in the ASIC. This flaw causes the PCI-e latency during DMA
        transfer to become unecessarily large, and leads to a lower
        throughput. The only way to get around this problem, is to
        coalesce every tx packets for the the 5906, which this Windows
        driver version does.
      Impact:
        Possibly higher CPU utilization with this version.

   3. Problem:
        Adding WOL support for 5715S, for Tyan S3997, 5715S A3
      Change:
        Added an entry for this device in the generic win32 and x64
        infs.
      Impact:
        None.

   4. Problem:
        CQ#27722 - new 4 part ID support for oem platforms.
      Change:
        INF update.
      Impact:
        None.

Version 10.4  November 27, 2006
----------------------------------------
   1. Problem:
        CQ00027621 - Cannot Select Box to Allow AUT to wake up Computer
        in Pwr Mgmt Tab with NDIS 6 v10.3.
      Cause:
        In the v10.3 release, there is a requirement to remove certain
        advanced settings for some oem platforms, hence the driver's
        inf was changed to remove some registry settings before starting
        up the installation in order to clean up the registry keys.
        However, the OS installer seems to defer deleting registry at a
        point after these keys were re-populated back to the HKR location.
        Hence, the driver would not be able to read the settings.
      Change:
        Limited the keys to delete for the affected OEM platforms, only
        delete keys that are not used by the affected OEM platforms.
      Impact:
        None.

Version 10.3  November 22, 2006
----------------------------------------
   1. Problem:
        Need to clean up stale registry keys left by the inbox driver.
      Cause:
        For certain new devices, the inbox driver does generic 2-part
        matching during installation. For such new devices, the generic
        2-part installation section contains advanced features and settings
        which is not required by some OEMs for their new platforms. In these
        new platforms, 4-Part ID is used to specify the installation
        section with simplified settings which contains less configurable
        parameters in the advanced pages. However, the upgrade driver
        process does not clean up the advanced settings left by the
        inbox driver hence those undesired settings still accessible
        through the advanced property page.
      Change:
        Delete all advanced settings before install or upgrade driver.
      Impact:
        None.

   2. Problem:
       None
     cause:
       None.
      Changes:
        Integrated changes from ndis5x driver from v10.19 to v10.20.
        The changes are described below (Problem 3,4,5).
      Impact:
       none.

   3. Problem:
        CQ27551, CQ27500, CQ27498 EnergyStar WOL feature does not work.
      Cause:
        The code for did not configure the phy properly when dropping
        the feature was enabled.
      Change:
        Corrected the EnergyStar feature to configure the phy correctly.
      Impact:
        None.

   4. Problem:
        CQ27588, EnergyStar feature should be enabled by default for
        devices that require the feature.
      Cause:
        Feature request.
      Change:
        Changed the default behavior to enabled for devices that require
        the feature.
      Impact:
        None.

   5. Problem:
        CQ27536, Remove Large Send Offload feature from 5906M.
      Cause:
        Feature request.
      Change:
        Removed Large Send Offload feature from 5906M.
      Impact:
        None.

        Added new 4 ID device match for OEM project.
      Impact:
        Resolve CQ#27410 Enhancement Request.
  3. Problem:
       None
     cause:
       None.
      Changes:

        excluding iSCSI boot and 5906 lso/clkreq related changes.
      Impact:
       none.

Version 10.1.0.0 Nov 09, 2006
----------------------------------------------------------------------
  1.  Problem:
        CQ#27231 Network Address property is displayed twice  in Advanced
        Tab of Network Properties with the latest driver 9.34 on only 5703.
        The problem is not seen with the In-box driver, v 9.20.03 and  not
        seen on 5755, 5705, 5714, 5751.
      Cause:
        A bug in the INF file that doesn't clean up stale registry keys for
        certain devices.
      Change:
        Modify the INFs to clean up registry keys before installation.
      Impact:
        Resolve CQ#27231.
  2.  Problem:
        5705 NDIStestv6.5 RC_2 DTM LSO test failure.
      Cause:
        The cert test failed at packet size = 7268B MSS=904 at 10M/H.
        Fix for CQ27281,27241,27280 introduced a bug that long burst
        mode is mistakenly enabled for 5705 device when it's configured
        at 10M/H 6.25mhz core clock which will cause RDMA read FIFO
        overrun.
      Change:
        1. Do not enable long burst for 5705 in the GPHY power down
           code introduced in the GPHY power down fix.
        2. Set RDMA mode to "FIFO available" when the device is on
           6.25 mhz core clock.
      Impact:
        Fixed cert failure.

        5755M or 5787M is initialized with the Ethernet cable
        Unplugged and subsequently plugged in after driver has
        Finished initialization.
      Cause:
        Similar to CQ27241, CQ27280 in NDIS5x drivers,
        A coding error in the power saving enhancement for 5752M, 5755M and
        5787M controllers was powering down the GPHY DLL during
        controller initialization.
      Change:

       Over-advertised WOL caps.
     Impact:
       none.

  2. Problem:
       PCIe link gets reset upon system crash which is not desirable.
     cause:
       Upon system crash, the driver reset the PCIe link along with
       the MAC core which causes other bugchecks.
     Change:
       Don't reset PCIe link for PCIe devices upon bugcheck.
     Impact:
       none.

Version 9.33.0.0  Oct 20, 2006
----------------------------------------------------------------------
  1. Problem:
       CQ#26855 - NDIS 6: 2c_oidsndisrequest and Stats test script failed.
     cause:
       The MAC doesn't collect UC/MC/BC byte status.
     Change:
       Add code in the driver to collect UC/MC/BC byte counts in both send
       and receive path.
     Impact:
       May have minor performance impact.

  2. Problem:
       CQ#26857 - NDIS 6: 1c_mini6rssoids test script failed.
     cause:
       The new test kit requires driver to verify RSS settings.
     Change:
       Add code to verify RSS settings before applying.
     Impact:
       none.

  3.  Enhancement Request:
        CQ#27184 - Remove support for 5906, 5906m, 5722 and 5756ME for

        CQ#27025 - Vista driver do not have vlan tagging support.
      Cause:
        In Windows Vista, Microsoft states the only correct way to
        support VLAN is using IM driver to set VLAN ID in NBL OOB.
        After discussed with MSFT, we added the VLAN ID registry
        setting as a temporarily solution for customers who want
        to support VLAN without an IM driver.
      Change:
        Added editable keyword "VLAN ID" in INF. Driver tags packets
        according to the current 801.1P/Q and VLAN ID settings.

     Change:
       Changed to report 802.3 as medium type at initialization.
     Impact:
       none.

  5. Problem:
       CQ#27100 Vista - Network address does not work.
       DUT only shows permanent MAC.
     cause:
       The registry key controlling the LAA is not up to the latest
       WDK document and OS. The ndis function to read the LLA registry
       key doesn't not work.
     Change:
       INF update. Changed the LAA key from *NetworkAddress to
       NetworkAddress.
     Impact:
       none.

----------------------------------------------------------------------
  1.  Enhancement Request:
        The latest Vista v9.24.0.0 INF-file differs from the INBOX-INF-file
        as to where it cross-references certain OEM's.
        This will break the "unified INF-file" approach taken for the
        INBOX-INF-file v9.20.0.1.
      Change:
        Renamed all OEM specific references in the INF files.

        NDIS5.1 and NDIS6.0 driver can not coexist on Vista if system
        has mixed of 5703 and newer device and 5700/01/02 devices.
      Cause:
        NDIS51 and NDIS60 INF use same service displayname. Os installer
        will not allow difference services with identical display name.
      Change:
       Changed NDIS6 inf file to use display name different from ndis51
       INF file.
      Impact:
       Vista can load NDIS5.1 and NDIS6.0 driver on the same machine
       at the same time.

  2.  Problem:
        5704 won't send on system with 16GB of memory.
      Cause:
        H/W limitation on RDMA request crossing 4*N GB address boundary. This
        also applies to any devices before 5755.
      Change:
       Coalesce send fragments when detecting any fragment in a
       send packet meet such condition.
      Impact:
       Fixed the problem mentioned above. Performance impact is not
       observed.

Version 9.20.0.2  Aug 04, 2006
----------------------------------------------------------------------
  1. Problem:
       Driver cannot be unloaded after running 2c_loadunload in a loop
       overnight. It usually happens after running the script for 4
       hours.
     Cause:
       At UM_Halt, driver disables interrupt on the h/w then calls
       NDIS function to disconnect interrupt from operating system.
       There is a window that a pending DPC for Isr has been queued
       but OS has not called NDIS's DPC for Isr when driver made call
       to disconnect interrupt from IDT. NDIS will in turn a)
       deallocate interrupt object. b) NdisMDeregisterInterruptEx
       immediately return without waiting for pending DPC to complete.
       When system calls NDIS's Dpc for Isr later, NDIS will not call
       driver's Dpc for Isr routine. It leaves driver pending DPC count
       non-zero, hence, the halt function will wait until it goes to
       zero which will never happen.
     Change:
       Driver waits for pending DPC to complete after disabling
       interrupts on h/w. It only call NdisMDeregisterInterruptEx when
       pending DPC count is clear (zero).
     Impact:
       Fixed the problem as described above.

  2. Problem:
       AUT stops passing traffic in Chariot Stress test when LsoV2
       is enabled on capable NICs such as 5755/5754/5787.
     Cause:
       Driver would prematurely clear the MSS in the LSO NBL information
       structure when the driver is running out of SBD and pushes the
       NetBufferList back to the send queue. The driver would not see
       the MSS information when resending the netbufferlist after SBDs
       become available.
       The logic of setting LSO completion is carried from old code.
       This problem was in the driver since day one but it doesn't
       expose until we test it with RC1 build+LsoV2.
     Change:
       Modify the code to setup LSO completion information after
       the LSO packet was actually transmitted.
     Impact:
       Fixed the problem as described above.

Version 9.20.0.1  Jul 20, 2006
----------------------------------------------------------------------
  1. Problem:
       Driver sometimes experience linked list corruption which leads
       to different problems such as hang, data corruption etc.
     Cause:
       The function s_list_pop_head does not terminate the linked-list
       by setting the "next" field to null. If we subsequently add the
       removed entry to other linked list, it would add more entries
       than it's supposed to and the value in "cnt" field doesn't match
       the number of entries in the link list obviously.
       XP driver doesn't have this problem because it doesn't
       use any of functions from listq.h
     Change:
       Nullify the "next" field after the entry was removed from queue.
     Impact:
       None.

Version 9.20.0.0  Jun 13, 2006
----------------------------------------------------------------------
  1. Problem:
       NDIS6 driver for Vista RC 1 needs to implement new offload
       interface.
     Cause:
       This is a Vista RC 1 and RTM requirement.
     Change:
       Implemented changes to comply with the new offload interface.
       Implemented Group Keyword for TCPIP offload settings.
       Modified the code to comply with latest NDIStester tools.
     Impact:
       Driver passes RC 1 NDIStest on a patched 5452 build.

  2. Problem:
       Need to merge OEM and BRCM generic INF.
     Cause:
       This is a Vista RC 1 and RTM requirement.
     Change:
       OEM and BRCM generic INFs are merged.
     Impact:
       All IDs from these infs (based on b57win 9.52B) are included
       in the inbox INF file.

  3.  Enhancement Request:
        CQ#25620 Add 4 ID device match for new OEM project.
      Cause:
        New 4 ID device match support request by OEM. (mobile)
      Change:
        Added new 4 ID device match for OEM project.
      Impact:
        Resolve CQ#25620 Enhancement Request.

Version 9.18    Jun 24, 2006
----------------------------------------------------------------------
  1. Problem:
       Resume take  2 seconds longer if the ethernet cable is connected.
     Cause:
       NDIS6 driver does not complete a set power request timely if
       link is up before going into low power mode. The driver will
       wait for the link to come up at DPC level for seconds. This
       prevent other thread from running.
     Change:
       Driver completed the set power without waiting the link to go up.
       Driver does not indicate link status to OS during link setup right
       in the case of resuming from low power mode. It schedules a link
       check timer to finally report the link status if there is a change.
       This is to ensure driver doesn't mistakenly indicate a link down
       and indicate link up again.
     Impact:
       Fixed the problem as described.

 2.  Problem:
        CQ#25391 - 1c_KernelCalls IoGetAttachedDeviceReference
     Cause:
        This is introduced while implementing a workaround for beta 2
        NDIS.sys not being able to access PCI configuration space at
        MiniportAddDevice callback. Miniport driver hence need to get
        access to the device stack. But NDIS driver can not call
        IoGetAttachedDeviceReference.
     Change:
        Remove the IoGetAttachedDeviceReference since the driver doesn't
        really need reference to the topmost device object while accessing
        the PCI bus driver.
     Impact:
        Fixed CQ#25391.

Version 9.17    Jun 15, 2006
----------------------------------------------------------------------
  1.  Enhancement Request:
        Enable private OID support for Vista.
      Cause:
        LH NDIS wrapper will failed OIDs sent to any NDIS6 driver if
        the OIDs has not been included in the supported OID list. If
        NDIS6 driver returns private OIDs in the support list,
        IOCTLCoverage will throw random data through the advertised
        OID. The driver does not validate the contents in the input
        buffer that cause random behavior while handling private OID.
      Change:
        Modify the driver to include private OIDs in the supported
        OID list. An input buffer header was added to each private.
        The header contains signature setup by the calling application.
        Driver always validate the signature before process a private
        OID. Changes are also made to BMAPI.
      Impact:
        Driver now can passed IOCTLCoverage test with private OID
        support. BACS can talk to NDIS6 driver through the modified
        BMAPI.

  2. Problem:
       CQ#25320 NDIS6: InterruptModeration test failure
     Cause:
       Driver does not return BytesWritten.
     Change:
       Return buffer size properly.
     Impact:
       Fixed CQ#25320.

  3. Problem:
       Driver BSODs when there are more than 32 CPUs installed.
     Cause:
       Driver assumed the max number of CPUs is 32 and allocated
       a static array of 32 elements for per-CPU data. It causes
       memory overrun when the number of active CPUs is more than 32.
     Change:
       Instead of using hardcoded number, the driver gets number
       of active CPUs through newly added kernel API and allocates
       memory from non-paged pool for per-processor slot data.
     Impact:
       Driver will not crash when number of CPU is greater than 32.

  4. Problem:
       Driver initialization causes newer Vista check build to assert.
     Cause:
       Driver didn't properly clean up the RSS attribute pointer while
       registering generic attributes with ndis.
     Change:
       Change made to the initialization code to clean up the RSS
       attribute pointer if the chip does not support RSS.
     Impact:
       Fixed the assert in newer Vista check build.

Version 9.16    Jun 12, 2006
----------------------------------------------------------------------
  1.  Enhancement Request:
        CQ#24438 - Need to support MSI in NDIS 6 driver on MSI capable
        devices.
      Cause:
        The NDIS 6 driver for 57xx devices does not currently support
        MSI on *any* device, even devices that are capable of supporting
        MSI.  It is a MSFT Vista logo requirement that all PCI-E devices
        supoort MSI, and thus the driver for PCI-E devices should support
        MSI. So the driver needs to be modified to support MSI for
        Shasta Cx step devices, and all later PCI-E devices including
        Baxter, Stanford, Jade, and Caeser. The driver should not support
        MSI on Shasta A/B steps due to known HW errata regarding MSI in
        those devices. At this time the driver is not required to support
        MSI on non PCI-e devices.
      Change:
        Added code support MSI in ndis6 driver. Change INF to enable OS
        to assign MSI resources for devices newer than Shasta. The driver
        implemented code to filter out MSI resources and roll back to INTX
        for Shasta A/B steps based on chip rev read from PCI config 0x68.
      Impact:
        MSI now is supported on Shasta CX and up.

       Manually merge files from XP driver.
     Impact:
       Picked up latest changes, fixes to the XP driver.

Version 9.14.0.0  May 5, 2006
Merged from 9.4.2.9
----------------------------------------------------------------------
  1. Problem:
       There are multiple synchronization problems in code paths,
       such as the Pause/Restart, Reset, Halt, PowerManagement, interrupt
       and DPC handling etc.
     Cause:
       Vista OS appears to be more asynchronous which would trigger
       some race conditions in the some code inherent from the old design.
     Change:
       Make disabling/enabling interrupt synced with ISR, ensure no pending
       DPC after interrupt has been disabled. Re-write RX code so that is
       clean and easy to sync with other operations such as reseting, pausing,
       restarting, switching between power modes. Driver can not be safely reset
       in most case so the reset code has been changed to asynchronous.
     Impact:
       Fixed many race conditions reported by MSFT during their internal
       test and deployment.

  2.  Enhancement Request:
        Use in-stack spinlock to improve performance in performance critical
        Path.
      Cause:
        Enhancement.
      Change:
        Use in stack spinlock to improve performance in performance critical
        Path.
      Impact:
        Enhance spinlock performance.

  3. Problem:
       Interrupt coalescing doesn't work and CPU usage is high under heavy
       traffic.
     Cause:
       Driver disables interrupt at ISR and invoke DPC. DPC will continuously
       check status block update and process send and receive events until
       a) no more status block update event b) DPC has executed more than
       10 ms c) DPC loop count has been reached. When DPC is running, no
       interrupt is generated hence the interrupt count is very low. The
       interrupt coalescing logic believes the device is not generating
       many interrupts/events and won't kick in.
     Change:
       change made to the DPC to increment the interrupt count when it detects
       a new status block update so that the interrupt coalescing logic will
       engage to coalesce the host-attention events.
     Impact:
       Reduced CPU utilization under heavy traffic and improve PEI.

----------------------------------------------------------------------
  1.  Enhancement Request:
        CQ#24099 Add 4 ID device match for new OEM project.
      Cause:
        New 4 ID device match support request by OEM.
      Change:

Version 9.12.0.0  March 24, 2006
----------------------------------------
  1. Problem:
       NDIS6 driver need to pick up latest changes from XP driver.
     Cause:
       Merge of NDIS5.x driver changes is required.
     Change:
       Synced files upto 03/06/2006 from b57xp32 v9.20.
     Impact:
       None.

  2. Problem:
       Vista 5308 Network Connection displays 1Gb while adapter is
       initialized with a 10/100Mb link.
     Cause:
       NDIS in this build assumes the link speed to be the Max Speed
       the driver has advertised at initialization without sending
       OID to query current link speed.
     Change:
       The Link Done Timer routine will test the current link speed
       if the link is active. It compares the current speed against
       the Max Speed advertised at initialization time, it indicates
       link speed change event to NDIS if current link speed does not
       equal to Max Link Speed.
     Impact:
       Network connection correctly shows link speed.

Version 9.6.0.0  March 3, 2006
----------------------------------------
  1.  Problem:
        CQ23438 System with 5752M fails to get DHCP address on boot
        if LAN cable was disconnected during OS boot and later
        connected after user log on to Windows.
      Cause:
        A non recoverable Read DMA error occurs in this test scenario,
        due to NIC's internal core clock being automatically slowed down
        by logic in the device when the GPHY DLL is  automatically powered
        down when CAT 5 cable is disconnected.
        The GPHY DLL automatically gets powered down and NIC's internal
        core clock gets slowed down when the CAT 5 cable disconnected,
        this is an intended design power saving feature.
        Unfortunately, the slowed down of the core-clock causes Read DMA
        error, which resulted in the system failed to acquire the IP address
        via DHCP.
      Change:
        Modified driver code to Not  Enable the GPHY DLL Auto-Power-Down
        feature of hardware for 5752M Devices.
      Impact:
        Higher power consumption on these devices when the device is
        enabled, but the network link is down.
        Resolve CQ23438 issue.

  2.  Problem:
        CQ23551 Disable GPHY DLL power-down on 5752M, 5754M,
        5755M, and 5787M Devices.
      Cause:
        Same problem as CQ23438 would occur for the listed devices.
        A non recoverable Read DMA error occurs in this test scenario,
        due to NIC's internal core clock being automatically slowed down
        by logic in the device when the GPHY DLL is  automatically powered
        down when CAT 5 cable is disconnected.
        The GPHY DLL automatically gets powered down and NIC's internal
        core clock gets slowed down when the CAT 5 cable disconnected,
        this is an intended design power saving feature.
        Unfortunately, the slowed down of the core-clock causes Read DMA
        error, which resulted in the system failed to acquire the IP address
        via DHCP.
      Change:
        Modified driver code to Not Enable the GPHY DLL Auto-Power-Down
        feature of hardware for all  5752M, 5754M, 5755M, 5787M Devices.
      Impact:
        Higher power consumption on these devices when the device is
        enabled, but the network link is down.
        Resolve CQ23551 issue.

  3. Problem:
       NDIStester 6.5 Offloadchecksum failure on 5715/14/80 devices.
     Cause:
       The driver mistakenly enables pseudo header checksum on
       5714/5715/5780 devices.
     Change:
       Made change to the code so that 5714/5715/5780 devices will
       not calculate pseudo header checksum on TX path.
     Impact:
       Passed NDIStestv6.5.

Version 9.6  March 3, 2006
Merged from 9.4.1.x branch
----------------------------------------------------------------------
  1.  Problem:
        1516254 Broadcom: b57nd60a / b57nd60x: 0x9F during stress:
                DRIVER_POWER_STATE_FAILURE (9f)
        1523492 Broadcom: b57nd60a/b57nd60x: drivers fails to send
                complete packets causing multiple issues.
      Cause:
        A race conditions in LM_EnableInterrupt and UM_Reset enables
        interrupt twice. It causes interrupt being re-enabled after
        DPC had disabled it.
      Change:
        Have the LM_EnableInterrupt sync with ISR and test if interrupt
        is unmasked before enabling interrupt.
      Impact:
        Resolved MSFT reported 1516254 and 1523492 on CTP release.

  2.  Problem:
        1502715 Broadcom: b57nd60a.sys: v9.5.0.0: X64_0xD1_W_b57nd60a!
                MM_IndicateRxPackets+32b: miniport is indicating packets
                up when OID_GEN_CURRENT_PACKET_FILTER is not set
      Cause:
        The UM_Restart routine turns on the OkToIndicate flags without
        testing the current packet filter. NDIS clears packet filter
        when pausing a miniport. When Miniport gets restarted, NDIS does
        not expect miniport to indicate any RX packet until it turns on
        the packet filter.
      Change:
        Do not set OkToIndicatePackets when restarting miniport.
      Impact:
        Resolved MSFT reported 1502715 on CTP release.

  3.  Problem:
        1513694 Broadcom: b57nd60x.sys "\Network Interface(*)\Bytes Sent/sec"
        counter 0 for Broadcom NetXtreme 57xx Gigabit Controller (NDIS6.0).
      Cause:
        Driver doesn't fully support OID_GEN_STATISTICS.
      Change:
        Implemented OID_GEN_STATISTICS as required.
      Impact:
        Resolved MSFT reported 1513694 on CTP release.

Version 9.5   January 31, 2006
----------------------------------------------------------------------
  1.  Problem:
        Assert during 2c_PMSleep.wsf.
      Cause:
        While fixing RSS shutdown crash on suspend, there is a bug
        being introduced causing NON-RSS devices to leave RX BDs in
        RX return ring, then LM_SetPowerState waits at dispatch level.
      Change:
        Release main spinlock before calling LM_SetPowerState.
      Impact:
        2c_PMSleep won't assert.

  2.  Problem:
        Halting adapter BSOD.
      cause:
        While fixing RSS shutdown crash on suspend, there is a bug
        being introduced causing NON-RSS devices to leave RX BDs in
        RX return ring. This effectively messed up the RX resource
        accounting.
      Change:
        Fix in LM_Abort to make sure non-RSS nics correctly collect
        RX BDs in RX return ring before returning.
      Impact:
        Halting non-RSS adapter won't BSOD.

Version 9.0 January 10, 2006
----------------------------------------
  1.  Initial release.

  Overall:
      This initial release of BRCM NetExtreme NDIS 6.0 Driver was tested to
      perform the best with Microsoft Longhorn (Vista) Beta build version 5270,
      and all tests were performed using MSFT NDIS Test 6.0.6.

      Although this version (9.0) of BRCM NetExtreme NDIS 6.0 Driver had encountered
      some problems during testing, but we believe most of the problems are MSFT
      Longhorn (Vista) OS and/or NDIS Test tool related.

      BRCM is actively engaged with MSFT regarding the "known issues", and are
      working with MSFT in driving the resolutions.

      This BRCM NetExtreme NDIS 6.0 Driver support BRCM NetExtreme chip family
      starting from BCM5703, 5704, CIOB-E, 5705, 5751, 5752, 5754, 5755, 5787,
      5714, 5715, HTLE and derivatives.  This NDIS 6.0 Driver removed the support
      for BCM 5700, 5701 and 5702 chips.

  Known issues:
      CQ13764: DPC timeout -- LH 5216.vbl_ndt_netio DPC watchdog timeout with
               b57xp32 on the stack (reported by MSFT).
      CQ22245: DPC timeout -- 5751C1 freezes OS when IPV6 Chariot traffic is
               applied
      CQ22290: DPC timeout -- Running Chariot IPV6 stress traffic causes OS to
               lock-up when LSO is disabled
      CQ22305: DPC timeout -- 5787mA1 cannot complete NDIS6 tester
               2c_mini6Performance.wsf test script

          Note: DPC timeout is an OS issue where the newly introduced
                DPC watchdog in Windows Vista mistakenly flags the driver 30
                seconds timeout at DISPATCH level. MSFT is actively
                looking into this issue.
