* Modified HWMP PREP/PREQ to contain a proxy entry and also changed PREP
frame processing according to amendment as following:
o Fixed PREP to always update/create if acceptance criteria is meet;
o PREQ processing to reply if request is for a proxy entry that is
proxied by us;
o Removed hwmp_discover call from PREQ, because sending a PREP will
build the forward path, and by receving and accepting a PREQ we
have already built the reverse path (non-proactive code);
* Disabled code for pro-active in PREP for now (will make a separate patch for
pro-active HWMP routing later)
* Added proxy information for a Mesh route, mesh gate to use and proxy seqno;
* Modified ieee80211_encap according to amendment;
* Introduced Mesh control address extension enum and removed unused struct,
also rename some structure element names.
* Modified mesh_input and added mesh_recv_* that should verify and process mesh
data frames according to 9.32 Mesh forwarding framework in amendment;
* Modified mesh_decap accordingly to changes done in mesh control AE struct;
Approved by: adrian
* Change in mesh_input to validate that QoS is set and Mesh Control field
is present, also both bytes of the QoS are read;
* Moved defragmentation in mesh_input before we try to forward packet as
inferred from amendment spec, because Mesh Control field only present in first
fragment;
* Changed in ieee80211_encap to set QoS subtype and Mesh Control field present,
only first fragment have Mesh Control field present bit equal to 1;

It doesn't _really_ help all that much, I'll commit something to
sys/net/if.c at some point explaining why, but the lock should be held
when checking/manipulating/branching because of said lock.
This supports both station and hostap modes:
* Station mode quiet time element support listens to quiet time
IE's and modifies the local quiet time configuration as appropriate;
* Hostap mode both obeys the locally configured quiet time period
and includes it in beacon frames so stations also can obey as needed.

didn't set a sequence number; it didn't show up earlier because the
hardware most people use for hostap (ie, AR5212 series stuff) sets the
sequence numbers up in hardware. Later hardware (AR5416, etc) which
can do 11n and aggregation require sequence numbers to be generated in
software.

too. In that case don't fiddle with the seqno as drivers are supposed
to handle that.
Currently only the powersave feature does sent QoS-null-data frames
before and after a background scan which must be handled correctly. Due
to this being quite rare we don't fiddle around with starting of aggr
sessions.

uses of ic_curchan occur. Due to the nature of a scan, switching
channels constantly and all this happening without any kind of locks
held, it might happen that ic_curchan points to nowhere leading to
panics. Fix this by not allowing frame injections while in SCAN state.

net80211 wireless stack. This work is based on the March 2009 D3.0 draft
standard. This standard is expected to become final next year.
This includes two main net80211 modules, ieee80211_mesh.c
which deals with peer link management, link metric calculation,
routing table control and mesh configuration and ieee80211_hwmp.c
which deals with the actually routing process on the mesh network.
HWMP is the mandatory routing protocol on by the mesh standard, but
others, such as RA-OLSR, can be implemented.
Authentication and encryption are not implemented.
There are several scripts under tools/tools/net80211/scripts that can be
used to test different mesh network topologies and they also teach you
how to setup a mesh vap (for the impatient: ifconfig wlan0 create
wlandev ... wlanmode mesh).
A new build option is available: IEEE80211_SUPPORT_MESH and it's enabled
by default on GENERIC kernels for i386, amd64, sparc64 and pc98.
Drivers that support mesh networks right now are: ath, ral and mwl.
More information at: http://wiki.freebsd.org/WifiMesh
Please note that this work is experimental. Also, please note that
bridging a mesh vap with another network interface is not yet supported.
Many thanks to the FreeBSD Foundation for sponsoring this project and to
Sam Leffler for his support.
Also, I would like to thank Gateworks Corporation for sending me a
Cambria board which was used during the development of this project.

o replace DLT_IEEE802_11 support in net80211 with DLT_IEEE802_11_RADIO
and remove explicit bpf support from wireless drivers; drivers now
use ieee80211_radiotap_attach to setup shared data structures that
hold the radiotap header for each packet tx/rx
o remove rx timestamp from the rx path; it was used only by the tdma support
for debugging and was mostly useless due to it being 32-bits and mostly
unavailable
o track DLT_IEEE80211_RADIO bpf attachments and maintain per-vap and
per-com state when there are active taps
o track the number of monitor mode vaps
o use bpf tap and monitor mode vap state to decide when to collect radiotap
state and dispatch frames; drivers no longer explicitly directly check
bpf state or use bpf calls to tap frames
o handle radiotap state updates on channel change in net80211; drivers
should not do this (unless they bypass net80211 which is almost always
a mistake)

drivers to record this information w/o writing the frame when the seq#

o eliminate M_WDS now that we call ieee80211_encap directly and can supply
the wds vap to indicate a 4-address frame should be created
o call ieee80211_encap in ieee80211_start so frames passed down to drivers
are already encapsulated
o remove ieee80211_encap calls in drivers
o fixup wi so it recreates the 802.3 head it requires from the 802.11
header contents
o move fast-frame aggregation from ath to net80211 (conditional on
IEEE80211_SUPPORT_SUPERG):
- aggregation is now done in ieee80211_start; it is enabled when the
packets/sec exceeds ieee80211_ffppsmin (net.wlan.ffppsmin) and frames
are held on a staging queue according to ieee80211_ffagemax
(net.wlan.ffagemax) to wait for a frame to combine with
- drivers must call back to age/flush the staging queue (ath does this
on tx done, at swba, and on rx according to the state of the tx queues
and/or the contents of the staging queue)
- remove fast-frame-related data structures from ath
- add ieee80211_ff_node_init and ieee80211_ff_node_cleanup to handle
per-node fast-frames state (we reuse 11n tx ampdu state)
o change ieee80211_encap calling convention to include an explicit vap
so frames coming through a WDS vap are recognized w/o setting M_WDS
With these changes any device able to tx/rx 3Kbyte+ frames can use fast-frames.

o add net80211 support for a tdma vap that is built on top of the
existing adhoc-demo support
o add tdma scheduling of frame transmission to the ath driver; it's
conceivable other devices might be capable of this too in which case
they can make use of the 802.11 protocol additions etc.
o add minor bits to user tools that need to know: ifconfig to setup and
configure, new statistics in athstats, and new debug mask bits
While the architecture can support >2 slots in a TDMA BSS the current
design is intended (and tested) for only 2 slots.
