allocator with UMA backed jumbo allocator by default. Previously
ti(4) used sf_buf(9) interface for jumbo buffers but it was broken
at this moment such that enabling jumbo frame caused instant panic.
Due to the nature of sf_buf(9) it heavily relies on VM changes but
it seems ti(4) was not received much blessing from VM gurus. I
don't understand VM magic and implications used in driver either.
Switching to UMA backed jumbo allocator like other network drivers
will make jumbo frame work on ti(4).
While I'm here, fully allocate all RX buffers. This means ti(4) now
uses 512 RX buffer and 1024 mini RX buffers.
To use sf_buf(9) interface for jumbo buffers, introduce a new
'options TI_SF_BUF_JUMBO'. If it is proven that sf_buf(9) is better
for jumbo buffers, interesting developers can fix the issue in
future.
ti(4) still needs more bus_dma(9) cleanups and should use separate
DMA tag/map for each ring(standard, jumbo, mini, command, event
etc) but it should work on all platforms except PAE.

* Close down some of the kickpcu races, where the interrupt handler
can and will run concurrently with the taskqueue.
* Close down the TXQ active/completed race between the interrupt
handler and the concurrently running tx completion taskqueue
function.
* Add some tx and rx interrupt count tracking, for debugging.
* Fix the kickpcu logic in ath_rx_proc() to not simply drain and
restart the TX queue - instead, assume the hardware isn't
(too) confused and just restart RX DMA. This may break on
previous chipsets, so if it does I'll add a HAL flag and
conditionally handle this (ie, for broken chipsets, I'll
just restore the "stop PCU / flush things / restart PCU"
logic.)
* Misc stuff

A bunch of the 11n TX aggregation logic wants to traverse lists of buffers
in various ways. In order to provide O(1) behaviour in this instance,
use TAILQs.
This does blow out the memory footprint and CPU cycles slightly for some
of these operations. I may convert some of these back to STAILQs once
the rest of the software transmit queue handling has been stabilised.

These structures hold no information that is modified during runtime. By
marking this constant, we see approximately 600 symbols become
read-only (amd64 GENERIC). While there, also mark the kobj_method
structures generated by makeobjops.awk static. They are only referenced
by the kobjop_desc structures within the same file.

CTF data from a module. On subsequent attempts to retrieve CTF data for
a module, return an error if there no CTF data.
This fixes a panic if you try to enable fbt probes on a module with CTF
data twice.

* Use 64 bit integer types for the sample rate statistics.
When TX'ing 11n aggregates, a 32 bit counter will overflow in a few
hours due to the high packet throughput.
* Create a default label of "" rather than defaulting to "Mb" - that way
if a rate hasn't yet been selected, it won't say "-1 Mb".

Some hardware (eg the AR9160 in STA mode) seems to "leak" unicast FROMDS
frames which aren't destined to itself. This angers the net80211 stack -
the existing code would fail to find an address in the node table and try
passing the frame up to each vap BSS. It would then be accepted in the
input routine and its contents would update the local crypto and sequence
number state.
If the sequence number / crypto IV replay counters from the leaked frame
were greater than the "real" state, subsequent "real" frames would be
rejected due to out of sequence / IV replay conditions.
This is also likely helpful if/when multi-STA modes are added to net80211.

This allows a hostap to specify to a set of stations that they
should not transmit for a certain period of time after each
beacon interval has expired. This is used when searching for
radar pulses or general interference.

Only one of these flags can be set. Just add them together and check the

The option allows to mount non-MPSAFE filesystem. Without it, the
kernel will refuse to mount a non-MPSAFE filesytem.
This patch is part of the effort of killing non-MPSAFE filesystems
from the tree.
No MFC is expected for this patch.

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.

* Add a PCU lock, which isn't currently used but will eventually be
used to serialise some of the driver access.
* Add in all the software TX aggregation state, that's kept per-node
and per-TID.
* Add in the software and aggregation state to ath_buf.
* Add in hooks to ath_softc for aggregation state and the (upcoming)
aggregation TX state calls.
* Add / fix the HAL access macros.

Some consumers of PAM remove the /dev/ component (i.e. login), while
others don't (i.e. su). We must ensure that the /dev/ component is
removed to ensure that the utmpx entries properly work with tools such
as w(1).

controller only if driver is running.
o Remove useless ti_stop() in ti_watchdog() since ti_init_locked()

-- highly experimental even. So far the closest to a bug in TMPFS that people
have gotten to relates to how ZFS can take away from the memory that TMPFS
needs. One can argue that such is not a bug in TMPFS. Irrespective, even if
there is a bug here and there in TMPFS, it's not in our own advantage to
scare people away from using TMPFS. I for one have been using it, even with
ZFS, very successfully.
The SYSCTL_NODE macro defines a list that stores all child-elements of

reason why it shouldn't be static.

2. Via GEOM_PART (if it is available);
3. Via GEOM_MBR.

When writing MBR first check that GEOM_MBR is available, if it is not
