Working on an update for rtw88 baed on wireless-testing I ran into
a build issue with struct ieee802211_sta. Some fields were factored
out into their own struct apparently preparing for MLO (Multi Link
Operation).
In order to be able to update one driver we have to adjust both
rtw88 and iwlwifi (and the ones still out-of-tree) now.
This is mostly a sed-replace job and no functional changes are
intended.

The 'failed to write TX skb to HCI' error message is twice in the code.
Print the function name and along with the message and also the reported

The 'failed to get tx report from firmware' was purposefully changed
away from debugging in the upstream Linux driver in
584dce175f0461d5d9d63952a1e7955678c91086 . Revert that decision and
extend the logging by the actual queue length so we get an idea how

This is based on linux-firmware at 681281e49fb6778831370e5d94e6e1d97f0752d6.
The license of the firmware matches the previous rtwnfw(4) firmware
files (modulo a Copyright year) and you can find a copy in
sys/contrib/dev/rtw88fw/LICENCE.rtlwifi_firmware.txt.
Add build infrastructure to create the .ko files but do not yet hook

While our version of the driver has knowledge about the incapablity

Rather than having LinuxKPI return BUS_PROBE_DEFAULT, return
"one less" so that on conflict of IDs others would be preferred.
This means that iwm(4) will attach instead of iwlwifi(4) for the
chipsets iwm(4) supports and iwlwifi(4) only for the other--in iwm(4)
unsupported--chipsets. This is done so that we can enable auto-loading
of drivers but for the upcoming 13.1-Release people with working iwm(4)
will not yet be affected by iwlwifi(4).

In certain situations we saw a memory modified after free. This was
tracked down to a pointer not NULLed after free and used in a different
code path. It is unclear how the race happens pending further
investigation but setting the pointer to NULL after free and adding a
check in the 2nd code path handling the case gracefully helps for now.

Over the past few months we published multiple snapshots for this
Linux derived driver and it has become fairly stable in terms of
minimal local changes needed for new updates.
The current version is based on iwlwifi-next update at

a hand full of files replaced for FreeBSD.

This problem of undefined behavior was also reported to acpica by @cem
in 2018: https://github.com/acpica/acpica/issues/407, but it seems there
was never any fix committed for it upstream.
Instead fix these locally, for ACPI_TO_INTEGER by simply casting the
incoming pointer to ACPI_SIZE (which corresponds roughly to uintptr_t
and size_t), and for ACPI_OFFSET by reusing our __offsetof definition
from sys/cdefs.h.

The NAV (network allocation vector) register reflects the current MAC
tracking of NAV - when it will stay quiet before transmitting.
Other devices transmit their frame durations in their 802.11 PHY headers
and all devices that hear a frame - even if it's one in an encoding
they don't understand - will understand the low bitrate PHY header that
includes the frame duration. So, they'll set NAV to this value so
they'll stay quiet until the transmit completes.
Anyway, sometimes the PHY NAV header is garbled and sometimes, notably
older broadcom devices, will fake a long NAV so they can get "cleaner" air
for local calibration. When this happens, the hardware will stay quiet
for quite some time and this can lead to missed/stuck beacons, or
(for Very Large Values) a MAC hang.
This code just adds the ability to get/set the NAV; the driver will
need to take care of using it during transmit hangs and beacon misses
to see if it's due to a trash looking NAV.
This package is intended to be used with ice(4) version 0.28.1-k.
That update will happen in a forthcoming commit.

The ice(4) driver is the driver for the Intel E8xx series Ethernet
controllers; currently with codenames Columbiaville and
Columbia Park.
These new controllers support 100G speeds, as well as introducing
more queues, better virtualization support, and more offload
capabilities. Future work will enable virtual functions (like
in ixl(4)) and the other functionality outlined above.
For full functionality, the kernel should be compiled with
"device ice_ddp" like in the amd64 NOTES file, and/or
ice_ddp_load="YES" should be added to /boot/loader.conf so that
the DDP package file included in this commit can be downloaded
to the adapter. Otherwise, the adapter will fall back to a single
queue mode with limited functionality.
A man page for this driver will be forthcoming.

Although I added the reset type field to ath_hal_reset() years ago,
I never finished adding it both throughout the HALs and in if_ath.c.
This will eventually deprecate the ath_hal force_full_reset option
because it can be requested at the driver layer.
So:
* Teach ar5416ChipReset() and ar9300_chip_reset() about the HAL type
* Use it in ar5416Reset() and ar9300_reset() when doing a full chip reset
* Extend ath_reset() to include the HAL_RESET_TYPE parameter added in the above functions
* Use HAL_RESET_NORMAL in most calls to ath_reset()
* .. but use HAL_RESET_BBPANIC for the BB panics, and HAL_RESET_FORCE_COLD during fatal, beacon miss and other hardware related hangs.
This should be a glorified no-op outside of actual hardware issues.
I've tested things with ath_hal force_full_reset set to 1 for years now,
so I know that feature and a full reset works (albeit much slower than
a warm reset!) and it does unwedge hardware.
The eventual aim is to use this for all the places where the driver
detects a potential hang as well as if long calibration - ie, noise floor
calibration - fails to complete. That's one of the big hardware related
things that causes station mode operation to hang without easy recovery.
