Thank you for everyone's help.

This is my first attempt at freebsd kernel porting, and I have learned
many lessons from this. I hope I can contribute more to the FreeBSD
project in the future.

If someone would donate me an CNS21XX I would love to port FreeBSD to
it to complete the Cavium Econa series SoC (it costs about 40.56 -
41.83 USD at DealExtreme:
http://www.dealextreme.com/details.dx/sku.26320 or
http://www.dealextreme.com/details.dx/sku.20383).

>From the datasheet the CNS21XX looks much better than CNS11XX. At
least the CNS21XX have a better (saner) network interface. Pyun
YongHyeon almost didn't believe me when I said that the CNS11XX
doesn't have error checking feature on RX packet (the CNS21XX have
this error flags, and have a better documentation in general).
