This implements hardware assisted quiet IE support. Quiet time is
an optional interval on DFS channels (but doesn't have to be DFS
only channels! sigh) where the station and AP can be quiet in order
to allow for channel utilisation measurements. Typically that's
stuff like radar detection, spectral scan, other-BSS frame sniffing,
checking how busy the air is, etc.
The hardware implements it as one of the generic timers, which is
supplied a period, offset from the trigger period and duration
to stay quiet. The AP can announce quiet time configurations which
change, and so this code also tracks that.
Implementation details:
* track the current quiet time IE
* compare the new one against the previous one - if only the TBTT
counter changes, don't update things
* If tbttcount=1 then program it into the hardware - that is when
it is easiest to program the correct starting offset (one TBTT +
configured offset).
* .. later on check to see if it can be done on any tbttcount
* If the IE goes away then remove the quiet timer and clear the
config
* Upon reset, state change, new beacon - clear quiet time IE
and just let it resync from the next beacon.
History:
This was work done initially by sibridgetech.com in 2011/2012/2013
as part of some FreeBSD wifi DFS contracting work they had for a
third party. They implemented the net80211 quiet time IE pieces
and had some test code for the station side which didn't entirely
use the timers correctly.
I figured out how to use the timers correctly without stopping/starting
the transmit DMA engine each time. When done correctly, the timer
just needs to be programmed once and left alone until the next
configuration change.
So, thanks to Himali Patel and Parthiv Shah for their work way
back then. I finally figured it out and finished it!
TODO:
* Now, I'd rather net80211 did the quiet time IE tracking and parsing,
pushing configurations into the driver is needed. I'll look at
doing that in a subsequent update.
* This doesn't handle multiple quiet time IEs, which will currently
just mess things up. I'll look into supporting that in the future
(at least by only obeying "one" of them, and then ignoring
subsequent IEs in a beacon/probe frame.)
* This also implements the STA side and not the AP side - the AP
side will come later, and involves taking various other intervals
into account (eg the beacon offset for multi-VAP modes, the
SWBA time, etc, etc) as well as obtaining the configuration when
a beacon is configured/generated rather than "hearing" an IE.
* .. investigate supporting quiet IE in mesh, tdma, ibss modes
* .. investigate supporting quiet IE for non-DFS channels
(so this can be done for say, 2GHz channels.)
* Chances are i should commit NULL methods for the ar5210, ar5211 HALs..
Tested:
* AR9380, STA mode - announcing quiet, removing quiet, changing quite
time config, whilst doing iperf testing;
* AR9380, AP mode.

set the bits that zfs_settattr expects
* In zfs_setattr, if XAT_CREATETIME is set, set xoa_createtime,

excessive, but it minimizes diffs vs OpenZFS.
* In zfs_setattr, check for overflow of va_birthtime (from delphij)

* on the station side, only call the quiet time IE method if we have a
quiet IE - otherwise call the NULL method once, and then don't waste
time calling NULL
* on the beacon generation side - force a beacon regeneration each time
quiet time is enabled/disabled. Without this, enabling/disabling quiet
time IE would cause the beacon contents to be corrupted since none of
the "move contents around" logic (like for CSA and TIM handling) is implemented.
This changes the size of ieee80211_node so it requires a kernel recompile,
but no userland recompile.
Tested:
* AR9380, AP mode, enabling/disabling quiet time IE
* AR9380, STA mode, with upcoming driver changes.

using the ACPI C1/mwait sleep method.
Previously, the mwait instruction would return when an interrupt was
pending; however, the idle loop did not actually enable interrupts when
this occurred. This led to a situation where the idle loop could quickly
spin through the C1/mwait sleep method a number of times when an interrupt
was pending. (Eventually, the situation corrected itself when something
other than an interrupt triggered the idle loop to either enable interrupts
or schedule another thread.)

The Issue is that efi_devpath_last_node() can return NULL pointer, and
therefore we should check for it. In real life we really do not

The primary end-goal of this drop is ease future merges with NetBSD and
collaborate further with the NetBSD project.
The goal was (largely, not completely as some items are still oustanding
in the NetBSD GNATS system) achieved by doing the following:
- Pushing as many changes required to port contrib/netbsd-tests
back to NetBSD as possible, then pull the upstream applied changes
back in to FreeBSD.
- Diff reduce with upstream where possible by:
-- Improving libnetbsd header, etc compat glue.
-- Using _SED variables to modify test scripts on the fly for items
that could not be upstreamed to NetBSD.
As a bonus for this work, this change also introduces testcases for
uniq(1).
Many thanks to Christos for working with me to get many of the changes
back into the NetBSD project.

In the end, dealing with fparseln was more bikeshed worthy than I
anticipated, and polling stdio.h with libutil.h caused me more
grief than necessary. Keeping the compat header around for no
reason other than include_next'ing the stdio.h header in FreeBSD
makes no sense.
This change is being made to diff reduce/reduce duplication in
contrib/netbsd-tests and to facilitate further porting of software from
NetBSD
Add the following headers:
- sys/event.h:
-- sys/types.h is required for kqueue on FreeBSD, but not NetBSD.
- sys/types.h:
-- NBBY is defined in sys/param.h on FreeBSD, not sys/types.h like on NetBSD.
Pull in sys/param.h to have parity with NetBSD.
- sys/wait.h:
-- Define wrusage as __wrusage for parity with NetBSD typedef.
- glob.h
-- Define __gl_stat_t as "struct stat" for parity with NetBSD typedef.
- pthread.h:
-- Pull in pthread_np.h for _np functions defined separately on FreeBSD.
Improve compatibility with NetBSD in the following headers:
- sha1.h:
-- define SHA1_CTX as SHA_CTX
-- define SHA1Final as SHA1_Final
- sha2.h:
-- #include sha384 to pick up all of the SHA 384 bit macros and definitions.
- util.h:
-- Add sys/types.h to util.h to pollute the header for types used in
flags_to_string and string_to_flags (u_long) as NetBSD doesn't require them
for the functions.
