bd56e71b4b Pull ieee80211_ratectl_node_init() calls from drivers into net80211.
This fixes hostap mode for at least ral(4) and run(4), because there is
no sufficient call into drivers which could be used initialize the node
related ratectl variables.

a71ad78761 The RX path is missing a few bus_dmamap_*() calls, this results in
modification of memory which was already free'd and eventually in:
wpi0: could not map mbuf (error 12)
wpi0: wpi_rx_intr: bus_dmamap_load failed, error 12
and an usuable device.

3934c8a53f Fix scanning after loosing a connection. The firmware assumes that as long
as an association ID is set any scan is supposed to be a background scan.
This implies that the firmware will switch back to the associated channel
after a certain threshold, though, we are not notified about that. We
currently catch this case by a timer which will reset the firmware after
a 'scan timeout', though, upper layers are not notified about that and
will simply hang until manual intervention. Fix this by resetting the
firmware's knowledge about any association on RUN -> ASSOC and
!INIT -> SCAN transitions.

a7c6aabdc3 Instead of using the AMRR ratectl algo as default for drivers which have
the IEEE80211_C_RATECTL flag set, default to NONE for all drivers. Only if
a driver calls ieee80211_ratectl_init() check if the NONE algo is still
selected and try to use AMRR in that case. Drivers are still free to use
any other algo by calling ieee80211_ratectl_set() prior to the
ieee80211_ratectl_init() call.

After this change it is now safe to assume that a ratectl algo is always
available and selected, which renders the IEEE80211_C_RATECTL flag pretty
much useless. Therefore revert r211314 and 211546.

b6108616ac net80211 rate control framework (net80211 ratectl).
This framework allows drivers to abstract the rate control algorithm and
just feed the framework with the usable parameters. The rate control
framework will now deal with passing the parameters to the selected
algorithm. Right now we have AMRR (the default) and RSSADAPT but there's
no way to select one with ifconfig, yet.
The objective is to have more rate control algorithms in the net80211
stack so all drivers[0] can use it. Ideally, we'll have the well-known
sample rate control algorithm in the net80211 at some point so all
drivers can use it (not just ath).

[0] all drivers that do rate control in software, that is.

5463c4a485 Overhaul monitor mode handling:
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)
o update various drivers to be more consistent/correct in handling radiotap
o update ral to include TSF in radiotap'd frames

e1d2045e3f Abort any scan on a fatal firmware. ic_scan_curchan is overridden to perform

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.

339ccfb391 Hoist 802.11 encapsulation up into net80211:
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.

fcec677d3d o) Check that no overrun or CRC errors were encountered in receiving a
packet.  Linux, OpenBSD and our iwn(4) all do this.  It also results in
   a huge performance improvement (and the rejection of a fair number of
   apparently-bad packets on receive) on my hardware.
o) Like the wpi(4) driver in OpenBSD, and like our iwn(4), also drop runt
   packets.
o) Don't bother doing IFQ_POLL and then IFQ_DRV_DEQUEUE, just do
   IFQ_DRV_DEQUEUE outright.  This is more similar to how OpenBSD and our
   iwn(4) work.

 - Remove SIOCSIFMEDIA as it is not useful.
 - Limit ether_ioctl to only SIOCGIFADDR. SIOCSIFADDR and SIOCSIFMTU have no

 - Split off ndis_ioctl_80211 as it was getting too different to wired devices.

Update the mbuf(9) manual page, which was already out of sync on

Bump __FreeBSD_version to 800016 as there is no way to tell how
many arguments a CPP macro needs any other way.

This paves the way for giving sendfile(9) a way to wait for the
