New Revision: 366958
URL: https://svnweb.freebsd.org/changeset/base/366958

Log:
  cxgbe(4): refine the values reported in if_ratelimit_query.
  
  - Get the number of classes from chip_params.
  - Get the number of ethofld tids from the firmware.
  - Do not let tcp_ratelimit allocate all traffic classes.
