7634012302 Revamp 802.11 action frame handling:
o add a new facility for components to register send+recv handlers
o ieee80211_send_action and ieee80211_recv_action now use the registered
  handlers to dispatch operations
o rev ieee80211_send_action api to enable passing arbitrary data
o rev ieee80211_recv_action api to pass the 802.11 frame header as it may
  be difficult to locate
o update existing IEEE80211_ACTION_CAT_BA and IEEE80211_ACTION_CAT_HT handling
o update mwl for api rev

7131987ded When a channel switch is done to a channel with different operating
characteristics force the stations to re-associate so protocol state
is re-initialized.  Note that for 11h/DFS this is irrelevant as channel
changes are never cross-band.

4e15098821 After a channel switch mark associated stations so they will immediately
be probed as inactive; this more quickly weeds out stations that don't
follow to the new channel.

e1cfcbcb4e Fix monitor mode vaps to work as intended:

a6c3cf3eca Fix handling of devices w/o radiotap support:
o do not attach DLT_IEEE802_11_RADIO unless both tx and rx headers are
  present; this is assumed in the capture code paths
o verify the above with asserts in ieee80211_radiotap_{rx,tx}
o add missing checks for active taps before calling ieee80211_radiotap_rx

5463c4a485 Overhaul monitor mode handling:
o replace DLT_IEEE802_11 support in net80211 with DLT_IEEE802_11_RADIO
  and remove explicit bpf support from wireless drivers; drivers now
  use ieee80211_radiotap_attach to setup shared data structures that
  hold the radiotap header for each packet tx/rx
o remove rx timestamp from the rx path; it was used only by the tdma support
  for debugging and was mostly useless due to it being 32-bits and mostly
  unavailable
o track DLT_IEEE80211_RADIO bpf attachments and maintain per-vap and
  per-com state when there are active taps
o track the number of monitor mode vaps
o use bpf tap and monitor mode vap state to decide when to collect radiotap
  state and dispatch frames; drivers no longer explicitly directly check
  bpf state or use bpf calls to tap frames
o handle radiotap state updates on channel change in net80211; drivers
  should not do this (unless they bypass net80211 which is almost always
  a mistake)
o update various drivers to be more consistent/correct in handling radiotap
o update ral to include TSF in radiotap'd frames
o add promisc mode callback to wi

339ccfb391 Hoist 802.11 encapsulation up into net80211:
o call ieee80211_encap in ieee80211_start so frames passed down to drivers
  are already encapsulated
o remove ieee80211_encap calls in drivers
o fixup wi so it recreates the 802.3 head it requires from the 802.11
  header contents
o move fast-frame aggregation from ath to net80211 (conditional on
  IEEE80211_SUPPORT_SUPERG):
  - aggregation is now done in ieee80211_start; it is enabled when the
    packets/sec exceeds ieee80211_ffppsmin (net.wlan.ffppsmin) and frames
    are held on a staging queue according to ieee80211_ffagemax
    (net.wlan.ffagemax) to wait for a frame to combine with
  - drivers must call back to age/flush the staging queue (ath does this
    on tx done, at swba, and on rx according to the state of the tx queues
    and/or the contents of the staging queue)
  - remove fast-frame-related data structures from ath
  - add ieee80211_ff_node_init and ieee80211_ff_node_cleanup to handle
    per-node fast-frames state (we reuse 11n tx ampdu state)
o change ieee80211_encap calling convention to include an explicit vap
  so frames coming through a WDS vap are recognized w/o setting M_WDS

With these changes any device able to tx/rx 3Kbyte+ frames can use fast-frames.

1b999d643c Replace adhoc checks in ieee80211_start with a per-node flag that
indicates if an association id is required before outbound traffic
is permitted.  This cleans up the previous change that broke mcast
traffic "to the stack" in ap mode as a side effect.

d6f57961a8 Fix checks for fast frames negotiation. ni_ath_flags holds the
capabilities reported by the ap.  These need to be cross-checked
against the local configuration in the vap.  Previously we were
only checking the ap capabilities which meant that if an ap reported
it was ff-capable but we were not setup to use them we'd try to do
ff aggregation and drop the frame.

There are a number of problems to be fixed here but applying this
fix immediately as the problem causes all traffic to stop (and has
not workaround).

63092fce49 New ap-side power save implementation; the main change is to allow drivers
to queue frames previously encapsulated on a separate high priority list
that is dispatched before the unencapsulated frames (to preserve order).

fdabd982e7 Revamp ht ie handling:
o change ieee80211_parse_htcap and ieee80211_parse_htinfo to save only
  internal state obtained from the ie's; no dynamic state such as
  ni_chw is altered
o add ieee80211_ht_updateparams to parse ht cap+info ie's and update
  dynamic node state
o change ieee80211_ht_node_init to not take an htcap ie that is parsed;
  instead have the caller make a separate call as one caller wants to
  parse the ie while another wants to parse both cap+info ie's and
  update state so can better do this with ieee80211_ht_updateparams

These changes fix sta mode state handling where the node's channel
width was shifted to ht20/ht40 prematurely.

45f856e3ac Cleanup AMPDU handling:
For receive:
o explicitly tag rx frames w/ M_AMPDU instead of passing frames through
  the reorder processing according to the node having HT and the frame
  being QoS data
o relax ieee80211_ampdu_reorder asserts to allow any frame to be passed
  in, unsuitable frames are returned to the caller for normal processing;
  this permits drivers that cannot inspect the PLCP to mark all data
  frames as potential ampdu candidates with only a small penalty
o add M_AMPDU_MPDU to identify frames resubmitted from the reorder q

For transmit:
o tag aggregation candidates with M_AMPDU_MPDU
o fix the QoS ack policy set in ampdu subframes; we only support immediate
  BA streams which should be marked for "normal ack" to get implicit block
  ack behaviour; interestingly certain vendor parts BA'd frames with the
  11e BA ack policy set
o do not assign a sequence # to aggregation candidates; this must be done
  when frames are submitted for transmit (NB: this can/will be handled
  better when aggregation is pulled up to net80211)

b032f27c36 Multi-bss (aka vap) support for 802.11 devices.
Note this includes changes to all drivers and moves some device firmware
loading to use firmware(9) and a separate module (e.g. ral).  Also there
no longer are separate wlan_scan* modules; this functionality is now
bundled into the wlan module.
