The fullmac firmware doesn't seem to populate a useful rssi indicator
in the RX descriptor, so if one plotted said values, they'd basically
look like garbage.
The reference driver implements a "get current rssi" firmware command
which I guess is really meant for station operation only (as hostap
operation would need rssi per station, not a single firmware read.)
So:
* populate sc_currssi during each calibration run;
* use this in the RX path instead of trying to reconstruct the RSSI
value and passing it around as a pointer;
* do up a quick hack to map the rssi hardware value to some useful
signal level;
* the survey results provide an RSSI value between 0..100, so just
do another quick hack to map it into some usefulish signal level;
* supply a faked noise floor - I haven't yet found how to pull it
out of the firmware.
The scan results and the station RSSI information is now more useful
for indicating signal strength / distance.
This logic is mostly crimed from the reference driver and the linux
r92su driver.
I verified that it (a) worked on the rsu hardware I have, and (b)
did traffic testing whilst watching what ath(4) sent as a hostap.
It successfully sent MCS8..15 rates (which requires 2-stream reception)
as well as MCS0..7 (which is 1-stream.)
Tested:
* RTL8712, 1T1R NIC, MCS rates 0..7.
* RTL8712, 1T2R NIC, MCS rates 0..15
TODO:
* Find a 2T2R NIC!
* include opt_wlan.h like a good little wlan driver;
* add a function to free the mbufq /and/ the node references on it, or we will leak
said node references;
* free the mbufq upon NIC shutdown otherwise we may end up with a full list that
we never begin transmit work on, and thus never drain it;
* .. which frees it upon NIC detach too;
* ensure urtwn_start() gets called after the completion of frame TX even if the
pending queue is empty, otherwise transmit will stall. It's highly unlikely that
the usb tx queue would be empty whilst the incoming send queue is full, but hey,
who knows.
This passes some iperf testing with and without the NIC being actively removed during
said active iperf test.
Tested:
* urtwn0: MAC/BB RTL8188EU, RF 6052 1T1R ; STA mode
in the join message so the firmware would pick it up.
* Strip out the direct hardware fiddling for 40MHz mode - the firmware
we're using doesn't require it (the rtl8712su firmware does; it
is less 'fullmac' than what we're using.)
* Fix the mbuf handling during errors - rsu_tx shouldn't free mbufs;
it's up to the caller to do so. This brings it in line with
what other drivers do or should be doing.
Tested:
* RTL8712, HT40 channel, STA mode (during this commit)
* Add a new method to control NIC poweron / network-sleep / power off;
* Add in A-MPDU TX negotiation support, but comment it out because it
does break TX traffic;
* blank out the tx buffer before sending a firmware message, just in case;
* go into network-sleep once associated;
TODO:
* figure out why ampdu negotiation isn't working and breaking TX traffic,
then enable it.
to do it directly.
Ensure that we re-queue starting transmit upon TX completion.
This solves two issues:
* It stops tx stalls - before this, if the transmit path filled the
mbuf queue then it'd never start another transmit.
* It enforces ordering - this is very required for 802.11n which
requires frames to be transmitted in the order they're queued.
Since everything remotely involved in USB has an unlock/thing/relock
pattern with that mutex, the only way to guarantee TX ordering is
to 100% defer it into a separate thread.
This now survives an iperf test and gets a reliable 30mbit/sec.
Correctly (I hope!) remove net80211 references before doing so.
Just doing a dumb mbufq drain isn't enough.
If enough traffic occurs and the mbuf queue fills up then transmit
stalls (which I'm not fixing in this commit!) but then the mbuf queue
stays full until the driver is removed. There's also the net80211
node refcounting leak.
This just ensures that during rsu_stop and detach the mbuf queue
is purged (and references!) so the queue-full situation can be
recovered from.

It'll just fall back to being a straight HT20 device and negotiate

requirements.
Don't start the opmode and join path until a pending survey is finished.
This seems to reliably fix things.
Ideally I'd just finish off the net80211 pluggable scan stuff and implement
the methods here so if_rsu can just drive the scan machinery.
However, that's a .. later thing.
Whilst here, remove the getbuf debugging; it's okay to run out of transmit
buffers under load; it however isn't okay to not be able to send commands.
I'll fix that later.
* Add a tunable to enable 11n if it's available, so to not anger people
who upgrade.
kenv hw.usb.rsu.enable_11n=1 before inserting the device.
* Add initial 11n htconfig bits;
* Enable 40MHz mode if it's available;
* Add 11n channels;
* Set 11n bits in the firmware.
It works for RX; I haven't tested TX aggregation just yet.
However the firmware doesn't do RX re-ordering, so I have to tie it into
the net80211 A-MPDU RX reorder path before I flip this on by default.
I've verified that I'm indeed actually seeing MCS 0->7 rates being received.
I haven't dug into whether it's actually transmitting 11n rates; I'll dig into
that later.
* the tx descriptor TID is priority, not TID.
* the tx descriptor queue id mapping is separate from the
TID/priority; rather than just "BE".
TODO:
* go and re-re-re-verify the queue mappings; the linux and openbsd
mappings aren't exactly the same. I need to verify all of this
before I try to flip on 11n RX.
* Do 1T1R for now, until we read the config out of ROM and use it.
* Disable turbo mode, I dunno what this is, but the linux drivers
have this disabled.
* Set the firmware endpoints to what we read from USB.
Tested:
* RTL8712 cut 3, STA mode
data queues.
This is similar to the openbsd and rtlwifi/r92su drivers.
Note: this driver still assumes it's a 4-endpoint device; I'll enforce
that in a follow-up commit.
This allows for arbitrary channel info to be placed in the input call rather
than the totally gross hack of overriding ic_curchan.
Without this I'm sure ic_curchan setting was racing with the scan code
setting the channel itself..
The firmware in this NIC sends management frames. So far I'm not sure which
ones it handles and which ones it doesn't handle - but this is what openbsd
does.
The association messages are handled by the firmware; the key negotiation
for 802.1x and WPA are done as raw frames, not management frames.
This successfully allows it to associate to my home networks whereas it didn't
work beforehand.
Tested:
* RTL8712, cut 3, STA mode
TODO:
* The firmware does send a join response with a status code; that should be
logged in a more obvious way to assist with debugging. Ie, the firmware
is the thing that is saying "couldn't join, sorry!", not net80211.
* yes, when a "sta disconnect" message comes through we should, like,
disconnect things. We're not currently generating beacon miss messages,
and net80211 isn't disconnecting things via software beacon miss receive.
Tested:
* RTL8712, cut 3, STA mode
* use an ath/iwn style debug bitmap - it's still global rather than per-device,
but it's better than debug levels
* disable bgscan - it just makes things unstable/unpredictable for now.

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,

Still, drivers: ndis, wtap, mwl, ipw, bwn, wi, upgt, uath were not

But the ndis driver is complex, and it is likely to be broken with this

Previously, the driver was trying to blink the LED in the newstate
function, but that only gets called once (unlike OpenBSD's net80211
stack). Move the LED blinking to set_channel().
While there, don't try to set the channel when we switch to the SCAN
state. This is already accomplished by the set_channel() function.

These changes prevent sysctl(8) from returning proper output,

there is an environment variable which shall initialize the SYSCTL
during early boot. This works for all SYSCTL types both statically and
dynamically created ones, except for the SYSCTL NODE type and SYSCTLs
which belong to VNETs. A new flag, CTLFLAG_NOFETCH, has been added to
be used in the case a tunable sysctl has a custom initialisation
function allowing the sysctl to still be marked as a tunable. The
kernel SYSCTL API is mostly the same, with a few exceptions for some
special operations like iterating childrens of a static/extern SYSCTL
node. This operation should probably be made into a factored out
common macro, hence some device drivers use this. The reason for
changing the SYSCTL API was the need for a SYSCTL parent OID pointer
and not only the SYSCTL parent OID list pointer in order to quickly
generate the sysctl path. The motivation behind this patch is to avoid
parameter loading cludges inside the OFED driver subsystem. Instead of
adding special code to the OFED driver subsystem to post-load tunables
into dynamically created sysctls, we generalize this in the kernel.
Other changes:
- Corrected a possibly incorrect sysctl name from "hw.cbb.intr_mask"
to "hw.pcic.intr_mask".
- Removed redundant TUNABLE statements throughout the kernel.
- Some minor code rewrites in connection to removing not needed
TUNABLE statements.
- Added a missing SYSCTL_DECL().
- Wrapped two very long lines.
- Avoid malloc()/free() inside sysctl string handling, in case it is
called to initialize a sysctl from a tunable, hence malloc()/free() is
not ready when sysctls from the sysctl dataset are registered.
- Bumped FreeBSD version to indicate SYSCTL API change.
