8a1b9b6ad4 Update 802.11 support; too much new functionality to fully describe
here but it includes completed 802.11g, WPA, 802.11i, 802.1x, WME/WMM,
AP-side power-save, crypto plugin framework, authenticator plugin framework,
and access control plugin frameowrk.

02b199f158 Link ALTQ to the build and break with ABI for struct ifnet. Please recompile
your (network) modules as well as any userland that might make sense of
sizeof(struct ifnet).
This does not change the queueing yet. These changes will follow in a
seperate commit. Same with the driver changes, which need case by case
evaluation.

__FreeBSD_version bump will follow.

36c6538b7f Change handling of probe response frames. Previously we always dropped the
refcnt on the node but left it in the node table.  This allows the node table
to hold the results of scanned ap's but for ibss scans left nodes w/o any
driver-private state setup and/or a bad refcnt (when the nodes were timed
out they were prematurely discarded).  Now we treat nodes identified for ap
scanning as before but force nodes discovered when scanning for ibss neighbors
to have complete/proper state and hold the refcnt on the node.  Any other
nodes created because of these frames are discarded directly (need to optimize
this case to eliminate various work that's immediately discarded).

6f3f5a1170 always free node reference when processing a probe request frame; was
conditionally doing an unref if operating in adhoc mode which turns
out to be wrong

a6381c54bb when processing beacon/probe response frames capture "is probe" in a

in forthcoming mods

4bd067c5a1 add a case of IEEE80211_ELEMID_IBSSPARMS so the statistic on unknown
elements is more meaningful (will add more with WPA merge)

7aa402898f when doing internal bridging free the node instead of just dropping the
reference for consistency (explicit refcounting is discouraged)

9089c48c13 when receiving a frame w/ a bad version number don't unref the node; the
driver is responsible for that

4844aa7d12 Add support for FH phy, which will be used by awi driver.
Also some if_media constants to indicate operational mode are changed
to bitmasks to reduce diffs from NetBSD.

18f897abe0 Change input handling to not expect drivers to filter short frames.
In particular, let drivers send up control frames so we can dispatch
them to bpf in monitor mode.

This is the first (small) step to adding more functionality such as
power save mode.

0a915fad5d MFp4 changes to fix locking issues and correct reference
count handling of station entries in hostap mode:

Input path:

o driver is now expected to find the node associated with the
  sender of a received frame; use ic_bss if none is located
o driver passes the (referenced) node into ieee80211_input for
  use within the wlan module and is responsible for cleaning up
  on return
o the antenna state is no longer passed up with each frame; this
  is now considered driver-private state and drivers are responsible
  for keeping it in the driver-private part of a node

Output path:

Revamp output path for management frames to eliminate redundant
locking that causes problems and to correct reference counting
bogosity that occurs when stations are timed out due to inactivity
(in AP mode).  On output the refcnt'd node is stashed in the pkthdr's
recvif field (yech) and retrieved by the driver.  This eliminates
an unref/ref scenario and related node table unlock/lock due to the
driver looking up the node.  This is particularly important when
stations are timed out as this causes a lock order reversal that
can result in a deadlock.  As a byproduct we also reduce the overhead
for sending management frames (minimal).  Additional fallout from
this is a change to ieee80211_encap to return a refcn't node for
tieing to the outbound frame.  Node refcnts are not reclaimed until
after a frame is completely processed (e.g. in the tx interrupt
handler).  This is especially important for timed out stations as
this deref will be the final one causing the node entry to be
reclaimed.

Additional semi-related changes:
o replace m_copym use with m_copypacket (optimization)
o add assert to verify ic_bss is never free'd during normal operation
o add comments explaining calling conventions by drivers for frames
  going in each direction
o remove extraneous code that "cannot be executed" (e.g. because
  pointers may never be null)

dd0e6ea6b0 Use IEEE80211_RATE_MAXSIZE instead of IEEE80211_RATE_SIZE to validate the
rate set element id from an AP.  This allows stations to associate with
AP's that violate the 802.11 spec by sending >8 rates.  This corrects a
recent regression; older code did likewise.

a11c9a5cc2 o change ieee80211_new_state handling to use a proper method that drivers
override in their sub-class; this eliminates the hack of interpreting the
  EINPROGRESS return value to mean "don't do any of the normal work"
o correct active scanning so the first channel is only scanned once and so
  per-channel passive mode is properly honored
o expose 802.11 FSM state names so every driver doesn't keep a private copy
o eliminate node parameter to ieee80211_begin_scan; it was not being used

1a1e1d2157 new 802.11 layer:
o code reorg (relative to old netbsd-derived code) for future growth
o drivers now specify available channels and rates and 802.11 layer handles
  almost all ifmedia actions
o multi-mode support for 11a/b/g devices
o 11g protocol additions (incomplete)
o new element id additions (for other than 11g)
o node/station table redone for proper locking and to eliminate driver
  incestuousness
o split device flags and capabilities to reduce confusion and provide room
  for expansion
o incomplete power management infrastructure (need to revisit)
o incomplete hooks for software retry
o more...
