The AR9130 is an AR9160/AR5416 family WMAC which is glued directly
to the AR913x SoC peripheral bus (APB) rather than via a PCI/PCIe
bridge.
The specifics:
* A new build option is required to use the AR9130 - AH_SUPPORT_AR9130.
This is needed due to the different location the RTC registers live
with this chip; hopefully this will be undone in the future.
This does currently mean that enabling this option will break non-AR9130
builds, so don't enable it unless you're specifically building an image
for the AR913x SoC.
* Add the new probe, attach, EEPROM and PLL methods specific to Howl.
* Add a work-around to ah_eeprom_v14.c which disables some of the checks
for endian-ness and magic in the EEPROM image if an eepromdata block
is provided. This'll be fixed at a later stage by porting the ath9k
probe code and making sure it doesn't break in other setups (which
my previous attempt at this did.)
* Sprinkle Howl modifications throughput the interrupt path - it doesn't
implement the SYNC interrupt registers, so ignore those.
* Sprinkle Howl chip powerup/down throughout the reset path; the RTC methods
were
* Sprinkle some other Howl workarounds in the reset path.
* Hard-code an alternative setup for the AR_CFG register for Howl, that
sets up things suitable for Big-Endian MIPS (which is the only platform
this chip is glued to.)
This has been tested on the AR913x based TP-Link WR-1043nd mode, in
legacy, HT/20 and HT/40 modes.
Caveats:
* 2ghz has only been tested. I've not seen any 5ghz radios glued to this
chipset so I can't test it.
* AR5416_INTERRUPT_MITIGATION is not supported on the AR9130. At least,
it isn't implemented in ath9k. Please don't enable this.
* This hasn't been tested in MBSS mode or in RX/TX block-aggregation mode.
Expose ip_icmp.c to INET6 as well and only export badport_bandlim()
along with the two sysctls in the non-INET case.
The bandlim types work for all cases I reviewed in IPv6 as well and
the sysctls are available as we export net.inet.* from in_proto.c.

respective CAM drivers. If you are using ATA device names in /etc/fstab or
other places, make sure to update them respectively (adX -> adaY,
acdX -> cdY, afdX -> daY, astX -> saY, where 'Y's are the sequential

ataraid(4) functionality is now supported by the RAID GEOM class.
To use it you can load geom_raid kernel module and use graid(8) tool
for management. Instead of /dev/arX device names, use /dev/raid/rX.
This is destined to be a lightweight and optional set of ALQ
probes for debugging events which are just impossible to debug
with printf/log (eg packet TX/RX handling; AMPDU handling.)
The probes and operations themselves will appear in subsequent
commits.
While in_pseudo() etc. is often used in offloading feature support,
in_cksum() is mostly used to fix some broken hardware.
Keeping both around for the moment allows us to compile NIC drivers
even in an IPv6 only environment without the need to mangle them
with #ifdef INETs in a way they are not prepared for. This will
leave some dead code paths that will not be exercised for IPv6.

This support has not worked for several years, and is not likely to work
again, unless Intel decides to release a native FreeBSD version of their
compiler. ;)
While it does not provide any functionality for IPv6, it provides
the sysctl nodes for net.inet.* that a lot of functionality shared
between IPv4 and IPv6 depends on. We cannot change these anymore
without breaking a lot of management and tuning.
In case of IPv6 only, we compile out everything but the sysctl node
declarations.

embedded flash stores.
Some devices - notably those with uboot - don't have an
explicit partition table (eg like Redboot's FIS.)
geom_map thus provides an easy way to export the hard-coded
flash layout as geom providers for use by filesystems and
other tools.
It also includes a "search" function which allows for
dynamic creation of partition layouts where the device only
has a single hard-coded partition. For example, if
there is a "kernel+rootfs" partition, a single image can
be created which appends the rootfs after the kernel with
an appropriate search string. geom_map can be told to
search for said search string and create a partition
beginning after it.

instead of 0x100000. As a side effect, an amd64 kernel now loads at
physical address 0x200000 instead of 0x100000. This is probably for the
best because it avoids the use of a 2MB page mapping for the first 1MB of
the kernel that also spans the fixed MTRRs. However, getmemsize() still
thinks that the kernel loads at 0x100000, and so the physical memory between
0x100000 and 0x200000 is lost. Fix this problem by replacing the hard-wired

I'd need this for a Sun Fire 3800, which then turned out to not being

complete but given that it hasn't actually been tested probing is
disabled for now.
This required a way to alter the XMITS configuration in case a PCI-X
device is found further down the device tree so the sparc64 specific
ofw_pci kobj was revived with a ofw_pci_setup_device method, which is
called by the ofw_pcibus code for every device added.
- A closer inspection of the OpenSolaris code indicates that consistent
DMA flushing/syncing as well as the block store workaround should be
applied with every BUS_DMASYNC_POSTREAD instead of in a wrapper around
interrupt handlers for devices behind PCI-PCI bridges only as suggested
by the documentation (code for the latter actually exists in OpenSolaris
but is disabled by default), which also makes more sense.
- Add a workaround for Casinni/Skyhawk combinations. Chances are that
this solves the crashes seen when using the the on-board Casinni NICs

Add new RAID GEOM class, that is going to replace ataraid(4) in supporting
various BIOS-based software RAIDs. Unlike ataraid(4) this implementation
does not depend on legacy ata(4) subsystem and can be used with any disk
drivers, including new CAM-based ones (ahci(4), siis(4), mvs(4), ata(4)
with `options ATA_CAM`). To make code more readable and extensible, this
implementation follows modular design, including core part and two sets
of modules, implementing support for different metadata formats and RAID
levels.
Support for such popular metadata formats is now implemented:
Intel, JMicron, NVIDIA, Promise (also used by AMD/ATI) and SiliconImage.
Such RAID levels are now supported:
RAID0, RAID1, RAID1E, RAID10, SINGLE, CONCAT.
For any all of these RAID levels and metadata formats this class supports
full cycle of volume operations: reading, writing, creation, deletion,
disk removal and insertion, rebuilding, dirty shutdown detection
and resynchronization, bad sector recovery, faulty disks tracking,
hot-spare disks. For Intel and Promise formats there is support multiple
volumes per disk set.

the existing functions cannot be changed to handle the new scenario.

Linux ath9k.
The ath9k ar9002_hw_init_cal() isn't entirely clear about what
is supposed to be called for what chipsets, so I'm ignoring the
rest of it and just porting the AR9285 init cal path as-is and
leaving the rest alone. Subsequent commits may also tidy up the
Merlin (AR9285) and other chipset support.

generally tidy up the TX power programming code.
Enforce that the TX power offset for Merlin is -5 dBm, rather than
any other value programmable in the EEPROM. This requires some
further code to be ported over from ath9k, so until that is done
and tested, fail to attach NICs whose TX power offset isn't -5
dBm.
This improves both legacy and HT transmission on my merlin board.
It allows for stable MCS TX up to MCS15.
Specifics:
* Refactor out a bunch of the TX power calibration code -
setting/obtaining the power detector / gain boundaries,
programming the PDADC
* Take the -5 dBm TX power offset into account on Merlin -
"0" in the per-rate TX power register means -5 dBm, not
0 dBm
* When doing OLC
* Enforce min (0) and max (AR5416_MAX_RATE_POWER) when fiddling
with the TX power, to avoid the TX power values from wrapping
when low.
* Implement the 1 dBm cck power offset when doing OLC
* Implement temperature compensation for 2.4ghz mode when doing OLC
* Implement an AR9280 specific TX power calibration routine which
includes the OLC twiddles, leaving the earlier chipset path
(AR5416, AR9160) alone
Whilst here, use these refactored routines for the AR9285 TX power
calibration/programming code and enforce correct overflow/underflow
handling when fiddling with TX power values.
