d28e9c146a The isr_intval in ieee80211req_scan_result structure should be 16 bit.
This makes ifconfig list scan display the correct beacon interval
(previously it would int overflow). As a side effect, this makes the
ieee80211req_scan_result word aligned.

59aa14a91d Implementation of the upcoming Wireless Mesh standard, 802.11s, on the
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.

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.

8658b18b82 Remove assumptions about the max # channels in ioctl's:
o change ioctl's that pass channel lists in/out to handle variable-size
  arrays instead of a fixed (compile-time) value; we do this in a way
  that maintains binary compatibility
o change ifconfig so all channel list data structures are now allocated
  to hold MAXCHAN entries (1536); this, for example, allows the kernel
  to return > IEEE80211_CHAN_MAX entries for calls like IEEE80211_IOC_DEVCAPS

10ad9a77f3 TDMA support for long distance point-to-point links using ath devices:
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.

Note this includes changes to all drivers and moves some device firmware
loading to use firmware(9) and a separate module (e.g. ral).  Also there
no longer are separate wlan_scan* modules; this functionality is now
bundled into the wlan module.

68e8e04e93 Update 802.11 wireless support:
o major overhaul of the way channels are handled: channels are now
  fully enumerated and uniquely identify the operating characteristics;
  these changes are visible to user applications which require changes
o make scanning support independent of the state machine to enable
  background scanning and roaming
o move scanning support into loadable modules based on the operating
  mode to enable different policies and reduce the memory footprint
  on systems w/ constrained resources
o add background scanning in station mode (no support for adhoc/ibss
  mode yet)
o significantly speedup sta mode scanning with a variety of techniques
o add roaming support when background scanning is supported; for now
  we use a simple algorithm to trigger a roam: we threshold the rssi
  and tx rate, if either drops too low we try to roam to a new ap
o add tx fragmentation support
o add first cut at 802.11n support: this code works with forthcoming
  drivers but is incomplete; it's included now to establish a baseline
  for other drivers to be developed and for user applications
o adjust max_linkhdr et. al. to reflect 802.11 requirements; this eliminates
  prepending mbufs for traffic generated locally
o add support for Atheros protocol extensions; mainly the fast frames
  encapsulation (note this can be used with any card that can tx+rx
  large frames correctly)
o add sta support for ap's that beacon both WPA1+2 support
o change all data types from bsd-style to posix-style
o propagate noise floor data from drivers to net80211 and on to user apps
o correct various issues in the sta mode state machine related to handling
  authentication and association failures
o enable the addition of sta mode power save support for drivers that need
  net80211 support (not in this commit)
o remove old WI compatibility ioctls (wicontrol is officially dead)
o change the data structures returned for get sta info and get scan
  results so future additions will not break user apps
o fixed tx rate is now maintained internally as an ieee rate and not an
  index into the rate set; this needs to be extended to deal with
  multi-mode operation
o add extended channel specifications to radiotap to enable 11n sniffing

Drivers:
o ath: add support for bg scanning, tx fragmentation, fast frames,
       dynamic turbo (lightly tested), 11n (sniffing only and needs
       new hal)
o awi: compile tested only
o ndis: lightly tested
o ipw: lightly tested
o iwi: add support for bg scanning (well tested but may have some
       rough edges)
o ral, ural, rum: add suppoort for bg scanning, calibrate rssi data
o wi: lightly tested

This work is based on contributions by Atheros, kmacy, sephe, thompsa,
mlaier, kevlo, and others.  Much of the scanning work was supported by
Atheros.  The 11n work was supported by Marvell.

d1c85dae69 More statistics fixups:
o change rssi to be signed in ieee80211_nodestats
o add noise floor in ieee80211_nodestats (use an implicit hole to
  preserve layout); return it as zero until we can update the api's
  so the driver can provide noise floor data
o add a bandaid so IEEE80211_IOC_STA_STATS works for sta mode; when
  all nodes are in the station table this will no longer be needed
o fix braino in IEEE80211_IOC_STA_INFO implementation; was supposed
  to take a mac address and return info for that sta or all stations
  if ff:ff:ff:ff:ff was supplied--but somehow this didn't get implemented;
  implement the intended semantics and leave a compat shim at the old
  ioctl number for the previous api

o separate configured beacon interval from listen interval; this
  avoids potential use of one value for the other (e.g. setting

  or ibss mode)
o bounds check the beacon interval received in probe response and
  beacon frames and drop frames with bogus settings; not clear
  if we should instead clamp the value as any alteration would
  result in mismatched sta+ap configuration and probably be more
  confusing (don't want to log to the console but perhaps ok with
  rate limiting)

we're at it:
o WPA/802.11i has a unicast key and a group key; in station mode

o correct EAPOL encryption logic to check unicast key instead
  of assuming other state implies this
o move QoS encapsulation up to before enmic work so TKIP has the
  information required to calculate the pseudo-header
o do not do QoS-encapsulation of EAPOL frames as some ap's do the
  wrong thing with such frames (may need to revisit this if ap's
  start dropping non-QoS frames from stations assoc'd with QoS)
