b9b533891f Convert malloc/free back to #define's, as part of OS portability work.
DragonflyBSD uses the FreeBSD wireless stack and drivers.  Their malloc()
API is named differently, so they don't have userland/kernel symbol
clashes like we do (think libuinet.)

So, to make it easier for them and to port to other BSDs/other operating
systems, start hiding the malloc specific bits behind defines in
ieee80211_freebsd.h.

DragonflyBSD can now put these portability defines in their local
ieee80211_dragonflybsd.h.

This should be a great big no-op for everyone running wifi.

c79f192c09 Begin plumbing ieee80211_rx_stats through the receive path.
Smart NICs with firmware (eg wpi, iwn, the new atheros parts, the intel 7260
series, etc) support doing a lot of things in firmware.  This includes but
isn't limited to things like scanning, sending probe requests and receiving
probe responses.  However, net80211 doesn't know about any of this - it still
drives the whole scan/probe infrastructure itself.

In order to move towards suppoting smart NICs, the receive path needs to
know about the channel/details for each received packet.  In at least
the iwn and 7260 firmware (and I believe wpi, but I haven't tried it yet)
it will do the scanning, power-save and off-channel buffering for you -
all you need to do is handle receiving beacons and probe responses on
channels that aren't what you're currently on.  However the whole receive
path is peppered with ic->ic_curchan and manual scan/powersave handling.
The beacon parsing code also checks ic->ic_curchan to determine if the
received beacon is on the correct channel or not.[1]

So:

* add freq/ieee values to ieee80211_rx_stats;
* change ieee80211_parse_beacon() to accept the 'current' channel
  as an argument;
* modify the iv_input() and iv_recv_mgmt() methods to include the rx_stats;
* add a new method - ieee80211_lookup_channel_rxstats() - that looks up
  a channel based on the contents of ieee80211_rx_stats;
* if it exists, use it in the mgmt path to switch the current channel
  (which still defaults to ic->ic_curchan) over to something determined
  by rx_stats.

This is enough to kick-start scan offload support in the Intel 7260
driver that Rui/I are working on.  It also is a good start for scan
offload support for a handful of existing NICs (wpi, iwn, some USB
parts) and it'll very likely dramatically improve stability/performance
there.  It's not the whole thing - notably, we don't need to do powersave,
we should not scan all channels, and we should leave probe request sending
to the firmware and not do it ourselves.  But, this allows for continued
development on the above features whilst actually having a somewhat
working NIC.

TODO:

* Finish tidying up how the net80211 input path works.
  Right now ieee80211_input / ieee80211_input_all act as the top-level
  that everything feeds into; it should change so the MIMO input routines
  are those and the legacy routines are phased out.

* The band selection should be done by the driver, not by the net80211
  layer.

* ieee80211_lookup_channel_rxstats() only determines 11b or 11g channels
  for now - this is enough for scanning, but not 100% true in all cases.
  If we ever need to handle off-channel scan support for things like
  static-40MHz or static-80MHz, or turbo-G, or half/quarter rates,
  then we should extend this.

[1] This is a side effect of frequency-hopping and CCK modes - you
    can receive beacons when you think you're on a different channel.
    In particular, CCK (which is used by the low 11b rates, eg beacons!)
    is decodable from adjacent channels - just at a low SNR.
    FH is a side effect of having the hardware/firmware do the frequency
    hopping - it may pick up beacons transmitted from other FH networks
    that are in a different phase of hopping frequencies.

2808a02bf4 Prepare for supporting driver-overridden curchan when submitting scan
results.

Right now the scan infrastructure assumes the channel is under net80211
control, and that when receiving beacon frames for scanning, the
current channel is indeed what ic_curchan is set to.

But firmware NICs with firmware scan support need more than this -
they can do background scans whilst hiding the off-channel behaviour
from net80211.  Ie, net80211 still thinks everything is associated
and on the main channel, but it's getting scan results from all the
background traffic.

However sta_add() pays attention to ic_curchan and discards scan
results that aren't on the right channel.  CCK beacon frames can be
decoded from adjacent channels so the receive path and sta_add
discard these as appropriate.  This is fine for software scanning
like for ath(4), but not for firmware NICs.  So with those, the
whole concept of background firmware scanning won't work without
major hacks (eg, overriding ic_curchan before calling the beacon
input / scan add.)

As part of my scan overhaul, modify sta_add() and the scan_add()
APIs to take an explicit current channel.  The normal RX path
will set it to ic_curchan so it's a no-op.  However, drivers may
decide to (eventually!) override the scan method to set the
"right" current channel based on what the firmware reports the
scan state is.

So for example, iwn, rsu and other NICs will eventually do this:

* driver issues scan start firmware command;
* firmware sends a "scan start on channel X" notify;
* firmware sends a bunch of beacon RX's as part of
  the scan results;
* .. and the driver will replace scan_add() curchan with channel X,
  so scan results are correct.
* firmware sends a "scan start on channel Y" notify;
* firmware sends more beacons...
* .. the driver replaces scan_add() curchan with channel Y.

Note:

* Eventually, net80211 should eventually grow the idea of a per-packet
  current channel.  It's possible in various modes (eg WAVE, P2P, etc)
  that individual frames can come in from different channels and that
  is under firmware control rather than driver/net80211 control, so
  we should support that.

f0188618f2 Fix multiple incorrect SYSCTL arguments in the kernel:
- Wrong integer type was specified.

- Wrong or missing "access" specifier. The "access" specifier
sometimes included the SYSCTL type, which it should not, except for
procedural SYSCTL nodes.

- Logical OR where binary OR was expected.

- Properly assert the "access" argument passed to all SYSCTL macros,
using the CTASSERT macro. This applies to both static- and dynamically
created SYSCTLs.

- Properly assert the the data type for both static and dynamic
SYSCTLs. In the case of static SYSCTLs we only assert that the data
pointed to by the SYSCTL data pointer has the correct size, hence
there is no easy way to assert types in the C language outside a
C-function.

- Rewrote some code which doesn't pass a constant "access" specifier
when creating dynamic SYSCTL nodes, which is now a requirement.

- Updated "EXAMPLES" section in SYSCTL manual page.

e7495198d5 Convert net80211 over to using if_transmit for the dispatch from the
upper layer(s).

This eliminates the if_snd queue from net80211. Yay!

This unfortunately has a few side effects:

* It breaks ALTQ to net80211 for now - sorry everyone, but fixing
  parallelism and eliminating the if_snd queue is more important
  than supporting this broken traffic scheduling model. :-)

* There's no VAP and IC flush methods just yet - I think I'll add
  some NULL methods for now just as placeholders.

* It reduces throughput a little because now net80211 will drop packets
  rather than buffer them if the driver doesn't do its own buffering.
  This will be addressed in the future as I implement per-node software
  queues.

* ath(4) and iwn(4) in STA operation

363a2c3c13 Refactor the VAP transmit path code into a utility function that both
the normal and the mesh transmit paths can use.

The API is a bit horrible because it both consumes the mbuf and frees
the node reference regardless of whether it succeeds or not.
It's a hold-over from how the code behaves; it'd be nice to have it
not free the node reference / mbuf if TX fails and let the caller
decide what to do.

5cda6006e4 Bring over my initial work from the net80211 TX locking branch.
This patchset implements a new TX lock, covering both the per-VAP (and
thus per-node) TX locking and the serialisation through to the underlying
physical device.

This implements the hard requirement that frames to the underlying physical
device are scheduled to the underlying device in the same order that they
are processed at the VAP layer.  This includes adding extra encapsulation
state (such as sequence numbers and CCMP IV numbers.)  Any order mismatch
here will result in dropped packets at the receiver.

There are multiple transmit contexts from the upper protocol layers as well
as the "raw" interface via the management and BPF transmit paths.
All of these need to be correctly serialised or bad behaviour will result
under load.

The specifics:

* add a new TX IC lock - it will eventually just be used for serialisation
  to the underlying physical device but for now it's used for both the
  VAP encapsulation/serialisation and the physical device dispatch.

  This lock is specifically non-recursive.

* Methodize the parent transmit, vap transmit and ic_raw_xmit function
  pointers; use lock assertions in the parent/vap transmit routines.

* Add a lock assertion in ieee80211_encap() - the TX lock must be held
  here to guarantee sensible behaviour.

* Refactor out the packet sending code from ieee80211_start() - now
  ieee80211_start() is just a loop over the ifnet queue and it dispatches
  each VAP packet send through ieee80211_start_pkt().

  Yes, I will likely rename ieee80211_start_pkt() to something that
  better reflects its status as a VAP packet transmit path.  More on
  that later.

* Add locking around the management and BAR TX sending - to ensure that
  encapsulation and TX are done hand-in-hand.

* Add locking in the mesh code - again, to ensure that encapsulation
  and mesh transmit are done hand-in-hand.

* Add locking around the power save queue and ageq handling, when
  dispatching to the parent interface.

* Add locking around the WDS handoff.

* Add a note in the mesh dispatch code that the TX path needs to be
  re-thought-out - right now it's doing a direct parent device transmit
  rather than going via the vap layer.  It may "work", but it's likely
  incorrect (as it bypasses any possible per-node power save and
  aggregation handling.)

Why not a per-VAP or per-node lock?

Because in order to ensure per-VAP ordering, we'd have to hold the
VAP lock across parent->if_transmit().  There are a few problems
with this:

* There's some state being setup during each driver transmit - specifically,
  the encryption encap / CCMP IV setup.  That should eventually be dragged
  back into the encapsulation phase but for now it lives in the driver TX path.
  This should be locked.

* Two drivers (ath, iwn) re-use the node->ni_txseqs array in order to
  allocate sequence numbers when doing transmit aggregation.  This should
  also be locked.

* Drivers may have multiple frames queued already - so when one calls
  if_transmit(), it may end up dispatching multiple frames for different
  VAPs/nodes, each needing a different lock when handling that particular
  end destination.

So to be "correct" locking-wise, we'd end up needing to grab a VAP or
node lock inside the driver TX path when setting up crypto / AMPDU sequence
numbers, and we may already _have_ a TX lock held - mostly for the same
destination vap/node, but sometimes it'll be for others.  That could lead
to LORs and thus deadlocks.

So for now, I'm sticking with an IC TX lock.  It has the advantage of
papering over the above and it also has the added advantage that I can
assert that it's being held when doing a parent device transmit.
I'll look at splitting the locks out a bit more later on.

General outstanding net80211 TX path issues / TODO:

* Look into separating out the VAP serialisation and the IC handoff.
  It's going to be tricky as parent->if_transmit() doesn't give me the
  opportunity to split queuing from driver dispatch.  See above.

* Work with monthadar to fix up the mesh transmit path so it doesn't go via
  the parent interface when retransmitting frames.

* Push the encryption handling back into the driver, if it's at all
  architectually sane to do so.  I know it's possible - it's what mac80211
  in Linux does.

* Make ieee80211_raw_xmit() queue a frame into VAP or parent queue rather
  than doing a short-cut direct into the driver.  There are QoS issues
  here - you do want your management frames to be encapsulated and pushed
  onto the stack sooner than the (large, bursty) amount of data frames
  that are queued.  But there has to be a saner way to do this.

* Fragments are still broken - drivers need to be upgraded to an if_transmit()
  implementation and then fragmentation handling needs to be properly fixed.

Tested:

* STA - AR5416, AR9280, Intel 5300 abgn wifi
* Hostap - AR5416, AR9160, AR9280
* Mesh - some testing by monthadar@, more to come.

644ccee405 PREP update
* Added assertion in mesh_rt_update;
* Fixed some prep propagation that where multicast, ALL PREPS ARE UNICAST;
* Fixed PREP acceptance criteria;
* Fixed some PREP debug messages;
* HWMP intermediate reply (PREP) should only be sent if we have newer
forwarding infomration (FI) about target;
* Fixed PREP propagation condition and PREP w/ AE handling;
* Ignore PREPs that have unknown originator.
* Removed old code inside PREP that was for proactive path building
to root mesh;

Other errors include:

4f3a27ae65 Added route lifetime update for destination and source mesh along a mesh path;
* In mesh_recv_indiv_data_to_fwd update route entry for both meshDA and meshSA;
 * In mesh_recv_indiv_data_to_me update route entry for meshSA;
 * in ieee80211_mesh_rt_update put code so that a proxy entry that is gated
 by us (number of hops == 0) is never invalidated;
 * Fixed so that we always call ieee80211_mesh_rt_update with lifetime in ms;

3c314f6dc3 Mesh forwarding with proxy support.
* Modified HWMP PREP/PREQ to contain a proxy entry and also changed PREP
frame processing according to amendment as following:
        o Fixed PREP to always update/create if acceptance criteria is meet;
        o PREQ processing to reply if request is for a proxy entry that is
          proxied by us;
        o Removed hwmp_discover call from PREQ, because sending a PREP will
          build the forward path, and by receving and accepting a PREQ we
          have already built the reverse path (non-proactive code);
* Disabled code for pro-active in PREP for now (will make a separate patch for
pro-active HWMP routing later)
* Added proxy information for a Mesh route, mesh gate to use and proxy seqno;
* Modified ieee80211_encap according to amendment;
* Introduced Mesh control address extension enum and removed unused struct,
also rename some structure element names.
* Modified mesh_input and added mesh_recv_* that should verify and process mesh
data frames according to 9.32 Mesh forwarding framework in amendment;
* Modified mesh_decap accordingly to changes done in mesh control AE struct;

b5df85a6fd Implemented so that Mesh forwarding information lifetime is dynamic.
* Introduced ieee80211_mesh_rt_update that updates a route with the
 maximum(lifetime left, new lifetime);
 * Modified ieee80211_mesh_route struct by adding a lock that will be used
 by both ieee80211_mesh_rt_update and precursor code (added in future commit);
 * Modified in ieee80211_hwmp.c HWMP code to use new ieee80211_mesh_rt_update;
 * Modified mesh_rt_flush_invalid to use new ieee80211_mesh_rt_update;
 * mesh_rt_flush also checks that lifetime == 0, this gives route discovery
 a change to complete;
 * Modified mesh_recv_mgmt case IEEE80211_FC0_SUBTYPE_BEACON:
 when ever we received a beacon from a neighbor we update route lifetime;

* Change in mesh_input to validate that QoS is set and Mesh Control field
  is present, also both bytes of the QoS are read;
* Moved defragmentation in mesh_input before we try to forward packet as
  inferred from amendment spec, because Mesh Control field only present in first
  fragment;
* Changed in ieee80211_encap to set QoS subtype and Mesh Control field present,
  only first fragment have Mesh Control field present bit equal to 1;

81b95c2cc7 Correct the 802.11s mesh configuration structure and related tidbits.
* Change the mesh IE size to be IEEE80211_MESH_CONF_SZ rather than the
  size of the structure;
* conf_cap is now a uint8_t rather than a uint16_t (uint16_t in D3.0,
  uint8_t in the amendment spec);
* Update mesh config capability bits - earlier bits were from draft X,
  current is amendment spec;
* Update the following to be an enum rather than #define and added
  a VENDOR entry too from the amendment spec;
  IEEE80211_MESHCONF_PATH_*
  IEEE80211_MESHCONF_METRIC_*
  IEEE80211_MESHCONF_CC_*
  IEEE80211_MESHCONF_SYNC_*
  IEEE80211_MESHCONF_AUTH_*
* Kept IEEE80211_MESHCONF_FORM_* and IEEE80211_MESHCONF_CAP_* as
  defines because they are defined in a way that we need to mask in/out
  information;
* In IEEE80211_MESHCONF_CAP_* IEEE80211_MESHCONF_CAP_TBTTA is removed
  and 0x80 is made reserved as defined in the amendment spec.
