Replace a malloc() by IEEE80211_MALLOC().
For malloc flags even in the local ieee80211_freebsd.c there was a mix
of both versions M_ and IEEE80211_M_.
Consistently use the IEEE80211_M_ malloc options everywhere.
If the field is changed for malloc, it'll also be changed for the
other accessor functions taking a "how" field to avoid any confusion.

A user supplied SSID length is used without proper checks in
setmlme_assoc_adhoc() which can lead to copies beyond the end

The ssid is a fixed size array for the ioctl and the argument

In addition to an ssid_len check of 0 also error in case the

In the kernel this simplifies one ioctl path (the other one currently

We also re-order the 80P80 and 160 flag for 160 to come before 80+80

Split the MANAGE privilege into MANAGE, SETMAC and CREATE_VAP.
+ VAP_MANAGE is everything but setting the MAC and creating a VAP.
+ VAP_SETMAC is setting the MAC address of the VAP.
Typically you wouldn't want the jail to be able to modify this.
+ CREATE_VAP is to create a new VAP. Again, you don't want to be doing
this in a jail, but this DOES stop being able to run some corner
cases like Dynamic WDS (DWDS) AP in a jail/vnet. We can figure this
bit out later.
This allows me to run wpa_supplicant in a jail after transferring

The later firmware devices (including iwn!) support multiple configuration
contexts for a lot of things, leaving it up to the firmware to decide
which channel and vap is active. This allows for things like off-channel
p2p sta/ap operation and other weird things.
However, net80211 is still focused on a "net80211 drives all" when it comes to driving
the NIC, and as part of this history a lot of these options are global and not per-VAP.
This is fine when net80211 drives things and all VAPs share a single channel - these
parameters importantly really reflect the state of the channel! - but it will increasingly
be not fine when we start supporting more weird configurations and more recent NICs.
Yeah, recent like iwn/iwm.
Anyway - so, migrate all of the HT protection, legacy protection and preamble
stuff to be per-VAP. The global flags are still there; they're now calculated
in a deferred taskqueue that mirrors the old behaviour. Firmware based drivers
which have per-VAP configuration of these parameters can now just listen to the
per-VAP options.
What do I mean by per-channel? Well, the above configuration parameters really
are about interoperation with other devices on the same channel. Eg, HT protection
mode will flip to legacy/mixed if it hears ANY BSS that supports non-HT stations or
indicates it has non-HT stations associated. So, these flags really should be
per-channel rather than per-VAP, and then for things like "do i need short preamble
or long preamble?" turn into a "do I need it for this current operating channel".
Then any VAP using it can query the channel that it's on, reflecting the real
required state.
This patch does none of the above paragraph just yet.
I'm also cheating a bit - I'm currently not using separate taskqueues for
the beacon updates and the per-VAP configuration updates. I can always further
split it later if I need to but I didn't think it was SUPER important here.
So:
* Create vap taskqueue entries for ERP/protection, HT protection and short/long
preamble;
* Migrate the HT station count, short/long slot station count, etc - into per-VAP
variables rather than global;
* Fix a bug with my WME work from a while ago which made it per-VAP - do the WME
beacon update /after/ the WME update taskqueue runs, not before;
* Any time the HT protmode configuration changes or the ERP protection mode
config changes - schedule the task, which will call the driver without the
net80211 lock held and all correctly serialised;
* Use the global flags for beacon IEs and VAP flags for probe responses and
other IE situations.
The primary consumer of this is ath10k. iwn could use it when sending RXON,
but we don't support IBSS or AP modes on it yet, and I'm not yet sure whether
it's required in STA mode (ie whether the firmware parses beacons to change
protection mode or whether we need to.)
Tested:
* AR9280, STA/AP
* AR9380, DWDS STA+STA/AP
* ath10k work, STA/AP
* Intel 6235, STA
* Various rtwn / run NICs, DWDS STA and STA configurations
U-APSD (unscheduled automatic power save delivery) is a power save method
that's a bit better than legacy PS-POLL - stations can mark frames with
an extra flag that tells the AP to leak out more frames after it sends
its own frames rather than needing to send a PS-POLL to get another frame
from the AP.
Now, this code just handles the negotiation bits; it doesn't actually
implement U-APSD. That's up to drivers, and nothing in the tree yet
implements this. I /may/ implement this for ath(4) if I eventually care
enough but right now I plan on just implementing it for firmware offload
based NICs that handle this in the NIC.
I'll commit the ifconfig bit after this and I may have some follow-up
commits as this gets used more by me in local testing.
This should be a glorious no-op for everyone else. If things change
for anyone that isn't fixed by a complete recompile then please reach out
to me.
Replace in-place implementation with system-wide one; since it
guarantees non-zero result drop all less-than-one checks from

Since r287197 ieee80211com is a part of drivers softc; as a result,
after detach all pointers to it (iv_ic, ni_ic) are invalid. Most
possible users (tasks, interrupt handlers) are blocked / removed
when device is stopped; however, ioctl handlers were not tracked
and may crash if ieee80211com structure is accessed.
Since ieee80211com pointer access from ieee80211vap structure is not
protected by lock (constant after interface creation) and used in
many other places just use reference counting for ioctl handlers;
on detach set 'detached' flag and wait until reference counter goes to 0.
For HEAD ieee80211vap size was changed (__FreeBSD_version bumped);

* Add the VHT capability element to the driver capabilities so ifconfig

* Add ioctl plumbing for enabling/disabling VHT and each of the VHT
widths.
Note: this DOES change the ABI (the driver caps ioctl struct size, sigh)
so this will require a recompile of at least ifconfig.
The ath10k firmware supports hardware WEP offload, and in native wifi mode
(or 802.3 ethernet mode, for that matter) the WEP key isn't actually included
in the TX payload from net80211. Instead, a separate firmware command is issued
that sets the default TX key to be the specified key.
However, net80211 doesn't at all inform the driver layer that this is
occuring - it just "expects" to be inserting WEP header information
when doing WEP TX, even with hardware encryption.
So, to better support the newer world order, turn the default TX key assignment
into a VAP method that can be overridden by the driver and ensure its wrapped
in a crypto begin/end set. That way it should be correctly atomic from the
point of view of keychanges (as long as the driver does the right thing.)
It'd be nice if we passed through to the key_set call a flag that says
"also make this the default key" - that's captured here by calling the
deftxkey method after the key_set method. Maybe I can do that later.
Note: this is a net80211 ABI change, and will require a kernel+modules
recompile. Happy Holidays, etc.

Although we correctly (now!) calculate the right A-MPDU parameters, the
ioctl() has some faulty logic for choosing which to display. The BSS

lower of theirs/ours when advertising the HT bits back at them.
So, we /should/ track and fix that so we display the correct A-MPDU
density and size.

as identifier and methods that pass pointer to struct ieee80211com. From
user point of view, the parent interface just hangs on in the ifconfig
list, and user can't do anything useful with it.
Now, the struct ifnet goes away. The struct ieee80211com is the only

- The struct ieee80211com is embedded into drivers softc.
- Packets are sent via new ic_transmit method, which is very much like
the previous if_transmit.
- Bringing parent up/down is done via new ic_parent method, which notifies
driver about any changes: number of wlan(4) interfaces, number of them
in promisc or allmulti state.
- Device specific ioctls (if any) are received on new ic_ioctl method.
- Packets/errors accounting are done by the stack. In certain cases, when
driver experiences errors and can not attribute them to any specific
interface, driver updates ic_oerrors or ic_ierrors counters.

- A sequence of commands needed to bring up wireless DOESN"T change.

- List of devices that can be used to create wlan(4) interfaces is

system from late 80s and then 90s. The NetWare itself switched to TCP/IP
as default transport in 1998. Later, in this century the Novell Open
Enterprise Server became successor of Novell NetWare. The last release
that claimed to still support IPX was OES 2 in 2007. Routing equipment
vendors (e.g. Cisco) discontinued support for IPX in 2011.
Thus, IPX won't be supported in FreeBSD 11.0-RELEASE.
