if_start().
This removes the overlapping data path TX from occuring, which
solves quite a number of the potential TX queue races in ath(4).
It doesn't fix the net80211 layer TX queue races and it doesn't
fix the raw TX path yet, but it's an important step towards this.
This hasn't dropped the TX performance in my testing; primarily
because now the TX path can quickly queue frames and continue
along processing.
This involves a few rather deep changes:
* Use the ath_buf as a queue placeholder for now, as we need to be
able to support queuing a list of mbufs (ie, when transmitting
fragments) and m_nextpkt can't be used here (because it's what is
joining the fragments together)
* if_transmit() now simply allocates the ath_buf and queues it to
a driver TX staging queue.
* TX is now moved into a taskqueue function.
* The TX taskqueue function now dequeues and transmits frames.
* Fragments are handled correctly here - as the current API passes
the fragment list as one mbuf list (joined with m_nextpkt) through
to the driver if_transmit().
* For the couple of places where ath_start() may be called (mostly
from net80211 when starting the VAP up again), just reimplement
it using the new enqueue and taskqueue methods.
What I don't like (about this work and the TX code in general):
* I'm using the same lock for the staging TX queue management and the
actual TX. This isn't required; I'm just being slack.
* I haven't yet moved TX to a separate taskqueue (but the taskqueue is
created); it's easy enough to do this later if necessary. I just need
to make sure it's a higher priority queue, so TX has the same
behaviour as it used to (where it would preempt existing RX..)
* I need to re-review the TX path a little more and make sure that
ieee80211_node_*() functions aren't called within the TX lock.
When queueing, I should just push failed frames into a queue and
when I'm wrapping up the TX code, unlock the TX lock and
call ieee80211_node_free() on each.
* It would be nice if I could hold the TX lock for the entire
TX and TX completion, rather than this release/re-acquire behaviour.
But that requires that I shuffle around the TX completion code
to handle actual ath_buf free and net80211 callback/free outside
of the TX lock. That's one of my next projects.
* the ic_raw_xmit() path doesn't use this yet - so it still has
sequencing problems with parallel, overlapping calls to the
data path. I'll fix this later.
Tested:
* Hostap - AR9280, AR9220
* STA - AR5212, AR9280, AR5416
CISS_MAX_LOGICAL to 107
Submitter wanted to increase the number of logical disks supported by ciss(4)
by simply raising the CISS_MAX_LOGICAL value even higher. Instead, consult
the documentation for the raid controller (OPENCISS) and poke the controller
bits to ask it for how many logical/physical disks it can handle.
Revert svn R242089 that raised CISS_MAX_LOGICAL to 64 for all controllers.
For older controllers that don't support this mechanism, fallback to the old
value of 16 logical disks. Tested on P420, P410, P400 and 6i model ciss(4)
controllers.
This should will be MFC'd back to stable/9 stable/8 and stable/7 after the MFC
period.

This is the Compressed Local IPv6 table on the chip. To save space, the
chip uses an index into this table instead of a full IPv6 address in
some of its hardware data structures.
For now the driver fills this table with all the local IPv6 addresses
that it sees at the time the table is initialized. I'll improve this
later so that the table is updated whenever new IPv6 addresses are
configured or existing ones deleted.

Suggested by: thompsa
Implement a MIPS FDT PIC decode routine to use when no PIC has been
configured, which assumes a cascade back to the nexus bus (e.g.,
the on-board CP0 interrupt management parts on the MIPS). If the
soc bus in a MIPS DTS file is declared as "mips4k,cp0"-compatible,
then this will be enabled. This is sufficient to allow IRQs to be
configured on BERI.

ASUS P8Z77-V board reports _AC2, _AC3 and _AC4 setpoints as 0C. With active
cooling already automatically set to _AC2, that still caused driver to print
two useless lines about temperature above _AC3 and _AC4 every ten seconds.
Three setponts of 0C is probably a board bug, but the same spam could happen
also in correct case if system is runnign not with the lowest cooling level.

This is intended to support reporting FFT results during active channel
scans, for users who would like to fiddle around with writing applications
that do both FFT visualisation _and_ AP scanning.
* add a new ioctl to enable/trigger spectral scan at channel change/reset;
* set do_spectral consistently if it's enabled, so a channel set/reset
will carry forth the correct PHY error configuration so frames
are actually received;
* for NICs that don't do spectral scan, don't bother checking the
spectral scan state on channel change/reset.
Tested:
* AR9280 - STA and scanning;
* AR5416 - STA, ensured that the SS code doesn't panic
This change was originally intended to account for test kthreads under
the nvmecontrol process, but jhb indicated it may not be safe to
associate kthreads with userland processes and this could have
unintended consequences.
I did not observe any problems with this change, but my testing didn't
exhaust the kinds of corner cases that could cause problems. It is not
that important to account for these test threads under nvmecontrol, so I
am just reverting this change for now.
On a related note, the part of this patch for <= 7.x fails compilation
so reverting this fixes that too.
