7a79cebfba Replay r286410. Change KPI of how device drivers that provide wireless
connectivity interact with the net80211 stack.

Historical background: originally wireless devices created an interface,
just like Ethernet devices do. Name of an interface matched the name of
the driver that created. Later, wlan(4) layer was introduced, and the
wlanX interfaces become the actual interface, leaving original ones as
"a parent interface" of wlanX. Kernelwise, the KPI between net80211 layer
and a driver became a mix of methods that pass a pointer to struct ifnet
as identifier and methods that pass pointer to struct ieee80211com. From
user point of view, the parent interface just hangs on in the ifconfig
list, and user can't do anything useful with it.

Now, the struct ifnet goes away. The struct ieee80211com is the only
KPI between a device driver and net80211. Details:

- The struct ieee80211com is embedded into drivers softc.
- Packets are sent via new ic_transmit method, which is very much like
  the previous if_transmit.
- Bringing parent up/down is done via new ic_parent method, which notifies
  driver about any changes: number of wlan(4) interfaces, number of them
  in promisc or allmulti state.
- Device specific ioctls (if any) are received on new ic_ioctl method.
- Packets/errors accounting are done by the stack. In certain cases, when
  driver experiences errors and can not attribute them to any specific
  interface, driver updates ic_oerrors or ic_ierrors counters.

Details on interface configuration with new world order:
- A sequence of commands needed to bring up wireless DOESN"T change.
- /etc/rc.conf parameters DON'T change.
- List of devices that can be used to create wlan(4) interfaces is
  now provided by net.wlan.devices sysctl.

Most drivers in this change were converted by me, except of wpi(4),
that was done by Andriy Voskoboinyk. Big thanks to Kevin Lo for testing
changes to at least 8 drivers. Thanks to pluknet@, Oliver Hartmann,
Olivier Cochard, gjb@, mmoll@, op@ and lev@, who also participated in

Still, drivers: ndis, wtap, mwl, ipw, bwn, wi, upgt, uath were not
tested. Changes to mwl, ipw, bwn, wi, upgt are trivial and chances
of problems are low. The wtap wasn't compilable even before this change.
But the ndis driver is complex, and it is likely to be broken with this
commit. Help with testing and debugging it is appreciated.

c79f192c09 Begin plumbing ieee80211_rx_stats through the receive path.
Smart NICs with firmware (eg wpi, iwn, the new atheros parts, the intel 7260
series, etc) support doing a lot of things in firmware.  This includes but
isn't limited to things like scanning, sending probe requests and receiving
probe responses.  However, net80211 doesn't know about any of this - it still
drives the whole scan/probe infrastructure itself.

In order to move towards suppoting smart NICs, the receive path needs to
know about the channel/details for each received packet.  In at least
the iwn and 7260 firmware (and I believe wpi, but I haven't tried it yet)
it will do the scanning, power-save and off-channel buffering for you -
all you need to do is handle receiving beacons and probe responses on
channels that aren't what you're currently on.  However the whole receive
path is peppered with ic->ic_curchan and manual scan/powersave handling.
The beacon parsing code also checks ic->ic_curchan to determine if the
received beacon is on the correct channel or not.[1]

So:

* add freq/ieee values to ieee80211_rx_stats;
* change ieee80211_parse_beacon() to accept the 'current' channel
  as an argument;
* modify the iv_input() and iv_recv_mgmt() methods to include the rx_stats;
* add a new method - ieee80211_lookup_channel_rxstats() - that looks up
  a channel based on the contents of ieee80211_rx_stats;
* if it exists, use it in the mgmt path to switch the current channel
  (which still defaults to ic->ic_curchan) over to something determined
  by rx_stats.

This is enough to kick-start scan offload support in the Intel 7260
driver that Rui/I are working on.  It also is a good start for scan
offload support for a handful of existing NICs (wpi, iwn, some USB
parts) and it'll very likely dramatically improve stability/performance
there.  It's not the whole thing - notably, we don't need to do powersave,
we should not scan all channels, and we should leave probe request sending
to the firmware and not do it ourselves.  But, this allows for continued
development on the above features whilst actually having a somewhat
working NIC.

TODO:

* Finish tidying up how the net80211 input path works.
  Right now ieee80211_input / ieee80211_input_all act as the top-level
  that everything feeds into; it should change so the MIMO input routines
  are those and the legacy routines are phased out.

* The band selection should be done by the driver, not by the net80211
  layer.

* ieee80211_lookup_channel_rxstats() only determines 11b or 11g channels
  for now - this is enough for scanning, but not 100% true in all cases.
  If we ever need to handle off-channel scan support for things like
  static-40MHz or static-80MHz, or turbo-G, or half/quarter rates,
  then we should extend this.

[1] This is a side effect of frequency-hopping and CCK modes - you
    can receive beacons when you think you're on a different channel.
    In particular, CCK (which is used by the low 11b rates, eg beacons!)
    is decodable from adjacent channels - just at a low SNR.
    FH is a side effect of having the hardware/firmware do the frequency
    hopping - it may pick up beacons transmitted from other FH networks
    that are in a different phase of hopping frequencies.

5efea30f03 Create a taskqueue for each wireless interface which provides a serialised
sleepable context for net80211 driver callbacks. This removes the need for USB
and firmware based drivers to roll their own code to defer the chip programming
for state changes, scan requests, channel changes and mcast/promisc updates.
When a driver callback completes the hardware state is now guaranteed to have
been updated and is in sync with net80211 layer.

This nukes around 1300 lines of code from the wireless device drivers making
them more readable and less race prone.

The net80211 layer has been updated as follows
 - all state/channel changes are serialised on the taskqueue.
 - ieee80211_new_state() always queues and can now be called from any context
 - scanning runs from a single taskq function and executes to completion. driver
   callbacks are synchronous so the channel, phy mode and rx filters are
   guaranteed to be set in hardware before probe request frames are
   transmitted.

9baf942d49 Now that wicontrol has been removed from the base system the corresponding
ioctls can be removed. These have been #ifdef'd out and left as a reference in
case any of the RIDs need to be turned into sysctls at a later date.

d81b3a5588 Fix scanning issues since the new net80211 code went in
- provide dummy routines for ic_scan_curchan and ic_scan_mindwell, we do not support those operations.
- add ieee80211_scan_done() to tell the scanning module that all channels have been scanned.
- pass IEEE80211_S_SCAN state off to net80211 so it can initiate scanning
- fix overflow in the rates array
- scale the rate value passed back from the firmware scan to the units that net80211 uses.
