to both make things clearer, and to make it easier to write userland
code which pulls in these definitions without needing to pull in the
rest of the HAL.
This stuff should be deprecated at some point in the future once
the net80211 regulatory domain support encapsulates all of the
defintions here.
This is something bus clock related from what I can gather. It is needed for
the AR9220 based Ubiquiti SR71-12 and SR71-15 Mini-PCI NICs.
(Note: those NICs don't work right now because of earlier changes to handle
power table offset correctly. That'll be resolved in a follow-up commit.)
Merlin (ar9280) and later were full-reset if they're doing open-loop TX
power control but the TSF wasn't being saved/restored.
Add ar5212SetTsf64() which sets the 64 bit TSF appropriately.
value. Controllers that always require "store and forward" mode(
Davicom and PNIC 82C168) have no way to recover from TX underrun
except completely reinitializing hardware. Previously only Davicom
was reinitialized and the TX FIFO threshold was changed not to use
"store and forward" mode after reinitialization since the default
FIFO threshold value was 0. This effectively disabled Davicom
controller's "store and forward" mode once it encountered TX
underruns. In theory, this can cause watchodg timeouts.
Intel 21143 controller requires TX MAC should be idle before
changing TX FIFO threshold. So driver tried to disable TX MAC and
checked whether it saw the idle state of TX MAC. Driver should
perform full hardware reinitialization on failing to enter to idle
state and it should not touch TX MAC again once it performed full
reinitialization.
While I'm here remove resetting TX FIFO threshold to 0 when
interface is put into down state. If driver ever encountered TX
underrun, it's likely to trigger TX underrun again whenever
interface is brought to up again. Keeping old/learned TX FIFO
threshold value shall reduce the chance of seeing TX underrns in
next run.

While here replace explicit comparing of module sysentvec structure with the

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.

from multiple threads while holding a shared lock during a lookup operation.
This could result in incorrect ENOENT failures which could then be
permanently stored in the name cache.
Specifically, the dirhash code optimizes the case that a single thread is
walking a directory sequentially opening (or stat'ing) each file. It uses
state in the dirhash structure to determine if a given lookup is using the
optimization. If the optimization fails, it disables it and restarts the
lookup. The problem arises when two threads both attempt the optimization
and fail. The first thread will restart the loop, but the second thread
will incorrectly think that it did not try the optimization and will only
examine a subset of the directory entires in its hash chain. As a result,
it may fail to find its directory entry and incorrectly fail with ENOENT.
To make this safe for use with shared locks, simplify the state stored in
the dirhash and move some of the state (the part that determines if the
current thread is trying the optimization) into a local variable. One
result is that we will now try the optimization more often. We still
update the value under the shared lock, but it is a single atomic store
similar to i_diroff that is stored in UFS directory i-nodes for the
non-dirhash lookup.

so detect this case and handle as appropriate, which allows using

It defaults to -5 dBm for eeproms earlier than v21.
This apparently only applies to Merlin (AR9280) or later,
earlier 11n chipsets have a power table offset of 0.
All the code in ath9k which checks the power table offset
and takes it into account first ensures the chip is
Merlin or later.
The earlier way of doing debugging would evaluate the function parameters
before calling the HALDEBUG. In the case of detailed register debugging
would mean a -lot- of unneeded register IO and other stuff was going on.
This method evaluates the ath_hal_debug variable before the function
parameters are evaluated, drastically reducing the amount of overhead
enabling HAL debugging during compilation.
The reason for this is a bug at ktrops() where process dereferenced
without having a lock. This might cause a panic if ktrace was runned
with -p flag and the specified process exited between the dropping
a lock and writing sv_flags.
Since it is impossible to acquire sx lock while holding mtx switch
