+       - Use MCLGET() instead of homegrown cluster (jcl) allocation mechanism.
+         Before this commit, resource shortage was easily occurred because
+         the total number of the clusters is small.
+       - Improve performance:
+         - Use m_adj(ETHER_ALIGN) more.
+         - Sprinkle __predict_false() in the RX path.
+         - Don't pre-allocate a cluster for RXCOPY case to improve short
+           packet's performance.
+       - Call bus_dmamap_unload(9) via ixgbe_dmamap_unload(), before freeing
+         DMA buffer. Also, when the buffer is already freed, do not call
+         bus_dmamap_unload(9) (no resource leaks with this change). This
+         change is required to make ixg(4) work on alpha.
+       - Keep m_len and m_pkthdr.len consistent to prevent panic on arm.
+       - Fix panic when bus_dmamap_load_mbuf() failed in
+         ixgbe_setup_receive_ring().
+       - Added BUS_DMA_COHERENT flag to bus_dmamem_map() to improve stability
+         on aarch64.
+       - Use uint64_t instead of bus_addr_t for the TX descriptor's buffer
+         address. At least, this change is required for macppc
+         (sizeof(bus_addr_t) == 4) to make TX work.
+       - Fix little-endian dependence.
+       - Set rxr->next_to_refresh correctly in ixgbe_setup_receive_ring().
+       - Refresh unrefreshed descriptors' buffers correctly.
+       - Don't call bus_dmamap_sync with rx_mbuf_sz(== MCLBYTES) to prevent
+         panic.
+       - Save the discard_multidesc state to not to forget the state by
+         exiting rxeof().
+       - Add missing increment of no_mbuf error counter.
+       - Don't increment no_mbuf evcnt(9) when discarding multi-descriptor
+         packet.
+       - ixv: Modify error message to sync with ixgbe.c
+       - Print the error value of ixgbe_reset_hw() for debugging.
+       - Remove extra unlock/lock processing around if_percpuq_enqueue().
+       - Refactor rxr->next_to_check updating.
+       - Add new sysctl "rx_copy_len".
+       - Add a new sysctl to read rxr->next_to_refresh.
+       - Print error number when error occurred.
+       - Rename ix{gbe,v}_stop() with ix{gbe,v}_stop_locked(). No functional
+         change.
+       - Don't use fixed value.
+       - Comment out flow director processing in fast path.
+       - Add missing NetBSD RCS IDs and __KERNEL_RCSID()s.
+       - KNF.
+       - Fix typos.
