I've tried serialising TX using queues and such but unfortunately
due to how this interacts with the locking going on elsewhere in the
networking stack, the TX task gets delayed, resulting in quite a
noticable throughput loss:
* baseline TCP for 2x2 11n HT40 is ~ 170mbit/sec;
* TCP for TX task in the ath taskq, with the RX also going on - 80mbit/sec;
* TCP for TX task in a separate, second taskq - 100mbit/sec.
So for now I'm going with the Linux wireless stack approach - lock tx
early. The linux code does in the wireless stack, before the 802.11
state stuff happens and before it's punted to the driver.
But TX locking needs to also occur at the driver layer as the TX
completion code _also_ begins to drain the ifnet TX queue.
Whilst I'm here, add some KTR traces for the TX path.

stashed away in ath_node.
As much as I tried to stuff that behind the ATH_NODE lock, unfortunately
the locking is just too plain hairy (for me! And I wrote it!) to do
cleanly. Hence using atomics here instead of a lock. The ATH_NODE lock
just isn't currently used anywhere besides the rate control updates.
If in the future everything gets migrated back to using a single ATH_NODE
lock or a single global ATH_TX lock (ie, a single TX lock for all TX and
TX completion) then fine, I'll remove the atomics.
it run out of multiple concurrent contexts.
Right now the ath(4) TX processing is a bit hairy. Specifically:
* It was running out of ath_start(), which could occur from multiple
concurrent sending processes (as if_start() can be started from multiple
sending threads nowdays.. sigh)
* during RX if fast frames are enabled (so not really at the moment, not
until I fix this particular feature again..)
* during ath_reset() - so anything which calls that
* during ath_tx_proc*() in the ath taskqueue - ie, TX is attempted again
after TX completion, as there's now hopefully some ath_bufs available.
* Then, the ic_raw_xmit() method can queue raw frames for transmission
at any time, from any net80211 TX context. Ew.
This has caused packet ordering issues in the past - specifically,
there's absolutely no guarantee that preemption won't occuring _during_
ath_start() by the TX completion processing, which will call ath_start()
again. It's a mess - 802.11 really, really wants things to be in
sequence or things go all kinds of loopy.
So:
* create a new task struct for TX'ing;
* make the if_start method simply queue the task on the ath taskqueue;
* make ath_start() just be called by the new TX task;
* make ath_tx_kick() just schedule the ath TX task, rather than directly
calling ath_start().
Now yes, this means that I've taken a step backwards in terms of
concurrency - TX -and- RX now occur in the same single-task taskqueue.
But there's nothing stopping me from separating out the TX / TX completion
code into a separate taskqueue which runs in parallel with the RX path,
if that ends up being appropriate for some platforms.
This fixes the CCMP/seqno concurrency issues that creep up when you
transmit large amounts of uni-directional UDP traffic (>200MBit) on a
FreeBSD STA -> AP, as now there's only one TX context no matter what's
going on (TX completion->retry/software queue,
userland->net80211->ath_start(), TX completion -> ath_start());
but it won't fix any concurrency issues between raw transmitted frames
and non-raw transmitted frames (eg EAPOL frames on TID 16 and any other
TID 16 multicast traffic that gets put on the CABQ.) That is going to
require a bunch more re-architecture before it's feasible to fix.
In any case, this is a big step towards making the majority of the TX
path locking irrelevant, as now almost all TX activity occurs in the
taskqueue.
Phew.
Right now processing a full 512 frame queue takes quite a while (measured
on the order of milliseconds.) Because of this, the TX processing ends up
sometimes preempting the taskqueue:
* userland sends a frame
* it goes in through net80211 and out to ath_start()
* ath_start() will end up either direct dispatching or software queuing a
frame.
If TX had to wait for RX to finish, it would add quite a few ms of
additional latency to the packet transmission. This in the past has
caused issues with TCP throughput.
Now, as part of my attempt to bring sanity to the TX/RX paths, the first
step is to make the RX processing happen in smaller 'parts'. That way
when TX is pushed into the ath taskqueue, there won't be so much latency
in the way of things.
The bigger scale change (which will come much later) is to actually
process the frames in the ath_intr taskqueue but process _frames_ in
the ath driver taskqueue. That would reduce the latency between
processing and requeuing new descriptors. But that'll come later.
The actual work:
* Add ATH_RX_MAX at 128 (static for now);
* break out of the processing loop if npkts reaches ATH_RX_MAX;
* if we processed ATH_RX_MAX or more frames during the processing loop,
immediately reschedule another RX taskqueue run. This will handle
the further frames in the taskqueue.
This should have very minimal impact on the general throughput case,
unless the scheduler is being very very strange or the ath taskqueue
ends up spending a lot of time on non-RX operations (such as TX
completion.)

BGE_PCI_PCISTATE register before issuing global reset. After
issuing reset, it reads BGE_PCI_PCISTATE register again and
compares the saved register value and current value. It was used to
know whether the global reset operation was completed or not.
Unfortunately, this logic caused several issues on recent BCM5717/
5718/5719 and BCM5720 controllers. It seems APE firmware accesses
some registers while global reset is in progress such that reading
BGE_PCI_PCISTATE register after reset does not yield old pre-reset
state value. This resulted in consuming too much time in global
reset and sometimes it couldn't successfully complete reset.
The BGE_MISCCFG_RESET_CORE_CLOCKS of BGE_MISC_CFG register is
self-clearing bit so driver is able to know the reset completion.
But the core-lock reset will disable indirect/flat/standard access

bit of BGE_MISC_CFG register. So just wait enough time for
core-clock reset to complete.

AR5416 and AR9280, but leave it disabled by default.
TL;DR: don't enable this code at all unless you go through the process
of getting the NIC re-certified. This is purely to be used as a
reference and NOT a certified solution by any stretch of the imagination.
The background:
The AR5112 RF synth right up to the AR5133 RF synth (used on the AR5416,
derivative is used for the AR9130/AR9160) only implement down to 2.5MHz
channel spacing in 5GHz. Ie, the RF synth is programmed in steps of 2.5MHz
(or 5, 10, 20MHz.) So they can't represent the quarter rate channels
in the 4.9GHz PSB (which end in xxx2MHz and xxx7MHz). They support
fractional spacing in 2GHz (1MHz spacing) (or things wouldn't work,
right?)
So instead of doing this, the RF synth programming for the AR5112 and
later code will round to the nearest available frequency.
If all NICs were RF5112 or later, they'll inter-operate fine - they all
program the same. (And for reference, only the latest revision of the
RF5111 NICs do it, but the driver doesn't yet implement the programming.)
However:
* The AR5416 programming didn't at all implement the fractional synth
work around as above;
* The AR9280 programming actually programmed the accurate centre frequency
and thus wouldn't inter-operate with the legacy NICs.
So this patch:
* Implements the 4.9GHz PSB fractional synth workaround, exactly as the
RF5112 and later code does;
* Adds a very dirty workaround from me to calculate the same channel
centre "fudge" to the AR9280 code when operating on fractional frequencies
in 5GHz.
HOWEVER however:
It is disabled by default. Since the HAL didn't implement this feature,
it's highly unlikely that the AR5416 and AR928x has been tested in these
centre frequencies. There's a lot of regulatory compliance testing required
before a NIC can have this enabled - checking for centre frequency,
for drift, for synth spurs, for distortion and spectral mask compliance.
There's likely a lot of other things that need testing so please don't
treat this as an exhaustive, authoritative list. There's a perfectly good
process out there to get a NIC certified by your regulatory domain, please
go and engage someone to do that for you and pay the relevant fees.
If a company wishes to grab this work and certify existing 802.11n NICs
for work in these bands then please be my guest. The AR9280 works fine
on the correct fractional synth channels (49x2 and 49x7Mhz) so you don't
need to get certification for that. But the 500KHz offset hack may have
the above issues (spur, distortion, accuracy, etc) so you will need to
get the NIC recertified.
Please note that it's also CARD dependent. Just because the RF synth
will behave correctly doesn't at all mean that the card design will also
behave correctly. So no, I won't enable this by default if someone
verifies a specific AR5416/AR9280 NIC works. Please don't ask.

accounting again, leading to doubled if_obytes statistics. And
in case of severe transmitting, when a packet could be several
times enqueued and dequeued it could have been accounted several
times.
o Thus, make drbr(9) API thinner. Now drbr(9) merely chooses between

- It doesn't touch ifnet stats anymore.
- drbr_stats_update() no longer exists.
o buf_ring(9) handles its stats itself:
- It handles br_drops itself.
- br_prod_bytes stats are dropped. Rationale: no one ever
reads them but update of a common counter on every packet
negatively affects performance due to excessive cache
invalidation.
- buf_ring_enqueue_bytes() reduced to buf_ring_enqueue(), since
we no longer account bytes.
o Drivers handle their stats theirselves: if_obytes, if_omcasts.
o mlx4(4), igb(4), em(4), vxge(4), oce(4) and ixv(4) no longer
use drbr_stats_update(), and update ifnet stats theirselves.
o bxe(4) was the most correct driver, it didn't call
drbr_stats_update(), thus it was the only driver accurate under
moderate load. Now it also maintains stats itself.
o ixgbe(4) had already taken stats from hardware, so just
- drop software stats updating.
- take multicast packet count from hardware as well.
o mxge(4) just no longer needs NO_SLOW_STATS define.
o cxgb(4), cxgbe(4) need no change, since they obtain stats
from hardware.

This doesn't specifically fix the issue(s) i'm seeing in this 2GHz
environment (where setting/increasing spur immunity causes OFDM restart
errors to skyrocket through the roof; but leaving it at 0 would leave
the environment cleaner..)
Pointy-hat-to: me, for committing this broken code in the first place.
- Use a dedicated task to handle deferred transmits from the if_transmit
method instead of reusing the existing per-queue interrupt task.
Reusing the per-queue interrupt task could result in both an interrupt
thread and the taskqueue thread trying to handle received packets on a
single queue resulting in out-of-order packet processing and lock
contention.
- Don't define ixgbe_start() at all where if_transmit is used.

things like EAPOL frames make it out.
After a whole bunch of hacking/testing, I discovered that they weren't
being early-dropped by the stack (but I should look at ensuring that
later..) but were even making to the hardware transmit queue.
They were mostly even being received by the remote end. However, the
remote end was completely ignoring them.
This didn't happen under 150-170MBit TCP tests as I'm guessing the TX
queue stayed very busy and the STA didn't do any scanning. However, when
doing 100Mbit/s of TCP traffic, the STA would do background scanning -
which involves it coming in and out of powersave mode with the AP.
Now, this is a total and utter hack around the real problems, which are:
* I need to implement proper power save handling and integrate it into
the filtered frames support, so the driver/stack doesn't send frames
whilst the station is actually in sleep;
* .. but frames were actually making it to the STA (macbook pro) and
the AP did receive an ACK; but a tcpdump on the receiving side showed
the EAPOL frame never made it. So the stack was dropping it for
some reason;
* Importantly - the EAPOL frames are currently going into the non-QoS
TID, which maps to the BE queue and is susceptible to that queue being
busy doing other things, but;
* There's other traffic going on in the non-QoS TID from other contexts
when scanning is going on and it's possible there's some races causing
sequence number/IV issues, but;
* Importantly importantlly, I think the interaction with TID 16 multicast
traffic in power save mode is causing issues - since I -believe- the
sequence number space being used by the EAPOL frames on TID 16 overlaps
with the multicast frames that have sequence numbers allocated and
are then stuffed on the cabq. Since with EAPOL frames being in TID 16
and queued to the BE queue, it's going to be waiting to be serviced
with all of the aggregate traffic going on - and if the CABQ gets
emptied beforehand, those TID 16 multicast frames with sequence numbers
will go out beforehand.
Now, there's quite likely a bunch of "stuff happening slightly out of
sequence" going on due to the nature of the TX path (read: lots of
overlapping and concurrent ath_start() and ath_raw_xmit() calls going
on, sigh) but I thought I had caught them all and stuffed each TID TX
behind a lock (that lasted as long as it needed to in order to get
the frame onto the relevant destination queue - thus keeping things
in order.)
Unfortunately the last problem is the big one and I'm going to stare at
it some more. If it _is_
So this is a work around for now to ensure that EAPOL frames actually
make it out before any other stuff in the non-QoS TID and HOPEFULLY
before the CABQ gets active.
I'm now going to spend a little time in the TX path figuring out exactly
why the sender is rejecting things. There's two (well, three if you count
EAPOL contents invalid) possibilities:
* The sequence number is out of order (ie, something else like the multicast
traffic on CABQ) is going out first on TID 16;
* The CCMP IV is out of order (similar to above - but less likely, as the
TX key for multicast traffic is different to unicast traffic);
* EAPOL contents strangely invalid.

lock may be held.
Kim reported that the TID lock wasn't held when ath_tx_update_clrdmask()
was called. Well, the underlying hardware TXQ for that TID.
I'm betting it's the cabq stuff. ath_tx_xmit_normal() can be called
for both real and software cabq. For software cabq, the real destination
txq is different to the txq. So, the lock check will fail.

offline in response to a INQUIRY command that does not retreive vital
product data(I personally have observed the behaviour on an Adaptec 2405
and a 5805). Force the peripheral qualifier to "connected" so that upper
layers correctly recognize that a disk is present.
This bug was uncovered by r216236. Prior to that fix, aac(4) was
accidentally clearing the peripheral qualifier for all inquiry commands.
This fixes an issue where passthrough devices were not created for
disks behind aac(4) controllers suffering from the bug. I have
verified that if a disk is not present that we still properly detect
that and not create the passthrough device.

it's disabled.
The previous commit to enable CLRDMASK setting didn't do it at all
correctly for non-aggregate sessions - so the CLRDMASK bit would be
cleared and never re-set.
* move ath_tx_update_clrdmask() to be called by functions that setup
descriptors and queue frames to the hardware, rather than scattered
everywhere.
* Force CLRDMASK to be set on all non-aggregate session frames being
transmitted.
* Use ath_tx_normal_comp() now on non-aggregate sessoin frames
that are queued via ath_tx_xmit_normal(). That way the TID hwq is
updated and they can trigger (eventual) filter frame queue resets
and software retransmits.
There's still a bit more work to do in this area to reverse the silly
short-sightedness on my part, however it's likely going to be better
to fix this now than just reverting the patch.
Thanks to people on the freebsd-wireless@ mailing list for promptly

use the system timer to drive the host statemachine. This might
give lower throughput and higher latency, but reduces the CPU usage
