Each set of frames pushed into a FIFO is represented by a list of ath_bufs - the first ath_buf in the FIFO list is marked with ATH_BUF_FIFOPTR; the last ath_buf in the FIFO list is marked with ATH_BUF_FIFOEND. Multiple lists of frames are just glued together in the TAILQ as per normal - except that at the end of a FIFO list, the descriptor link pointer will be NULL and it'll be tagged with ATH_BUF_FIFOEND. For non-EDMA chipsets this is a no-op - the ath_txq frame list (axq_q) stays the same and is treated the same. For EDMA chipsets the frames are pushed into axq_q and then when the FIFO is to be (re) filled, frames will be moved onto the FIFO queue and then pushed into the FIFO. So: * Add a new queue in each hardware TXQ (ath_txq) for staging FIFO frame lists. It's a TAILQ (like the normal hardware frame queue) rather than the ath9k list-of-lists to represent FIFO entries. * Add new ath_buf flags - ATH_TX_FIFOPTR and ATH_TX_FIFOEND. * When allocating ath_buf entries, clear out the flag value before returning it or it'll end up having stale flags. * When cloning ath_buf entries, only clone ATH_BUF_MGMT. Don't clone the FIFO related flags. * Extend ath_tx_draintxq() to first drain the FIFO staging queue, _then_ drain the normal hardware queue. Tested: * AR9280, hostap * AR9280, STA * AR9380/AR9580 - hostap TODO: * Test on other chipsets, just to be thorough. |

This is the top level of the FreeBSD source directory. This file was last revised on: $FreeBSD$ For copyright information, please see the file COPYRIGHT in this directory (additional copyright information also exists for some sources in this tree - please see the specific source directories for more information). The Makefile in this directory supports a number of targets for building components (or all) of the FreeBSD source tree, the most commonly used one being ``world'', which rebuilds and installs everything in the FreeBSD system from the source tree except the kernel, the kernel-modules and the contents of /etc. The ``world'' target should only be used in cases where the source tree has not changed from the currently running version. See: http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/makeworld.html for more information, including setting make(1) variables. The ``buildkernel'' and ``installkernel'' targets build and install the kernel and the modules (see below). Please see the top of the Makefile in this directory for more information on the standard build targets and compile-time flags. Building a kernel is a somewhat more involved process, documentation for which can be found at: http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/kernelconfig.html And in the config(8) man page. Note: If you want to build and install the kernel with the ``buildkernel'' and ``installkernel'' targets, you might need to build world before. More information is available in the handbook. The sample kernel configuration files reside in the sys/<arch>/conf sub-directory (assuming that you've installed the kernel sources), the file named GENERIC being the one used to build your initial installation kernel. The file NOTES contains entries and documentation for all possible devices, not just those commonly used. It is the successor of the ancient LINT file, but in contrast to LINT, it is not buildable as a kernel but a pure reference and documentation file.
