Bill Paul b5b548a6bc The latest version of the Intel 2200BG/2915ABG driver (9.0.0.3-9) from
Intel's web site requires some minor tweaks to get it to work:

- The driver seems to have been released with full WMI tracing enabled,
  and makes references to some WMI APIs, namely IoWMIRegistrationControl(),
  WmiQueryTraceInformation() and WmiTraceMessage(). Only the first
  one is ever called (during intialization). These have been implemented
  as do-nothing stubs for now. Also added a definition for STATUS_NOT_FOUND
  to ntoskrnl_var.h, which is used as a return code for one of the WMI
  routines.

- The driver references KeRaiseIrqlToDpcLevel() and KeLowerIrql()
  (the latter as a function, which is unusual because normally
  KeLowerIrql() is a macro in the Windows DDK that calls KfLowewIrql()).
  I'm not sure why these are being called since they're not really
  part of WDM. Presumeably they're being used for backwards
  compatibility with old versions of Windows. These have been
  implemented in subr_hal.c. (Note that they're _stdcall routines
  instead of _fastcall.)

- When querying the OID_802_11_BSSID_LIST OID to get a BSSID list,
  you don't know ahead of time how many networks the NIC has found
  during scanning, so you're allowed to pass 0 as the list length.
  This should cause the driver to return an 'insufficient resources'
  error and set the length to indicate how many bytes are actually
  needed. However for some reason, the Intel driver does not honor
  this convention: if you give it a length of 0, it returns some
  other error and doesn't tell you how much space is really needed.
  To get around this, if using a length of 0 yields anything besides
  the expected error case, we arbitrarily assume a length of 64K.
  This is similar to the hack that wpa_supplicant uses when doing
  a BSSID list query.

This is the top level of the FreeBSD source directory.  This file
was last revised on:
$FreeBSD$

For copyright information, please see the file COPYRIGHT in this
directory (additional copyright information also exists for some
sources in this tree - please see the specific source directories for
more information).

The Makefile in this directory supports a number of targets for
building components (or all) of the FreeBSD source tree, the most
commonly used one being ``world'', which rebuilds and installs
everything in the FreeBSD system from the source tree except the
kernel, the kernel-modules and the contents of /etc.  The
``buildkernel'' and ``installkernel'' targets build and install
the kernel and the modules (see below).  Please see the top of
the Makefile in this directory for more information on the
standard build targets and compile-time flags.

Building a kernel is a somewhat more involved process, documentation
for which can be found at:
   http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/kernelconfig.html
And in the config(8) man page.
Note: If you want to build and install the kernel with the
``buildkernel'' and ``installkernel'' targets, you might need to build
world before.  More information is available in the handbook.

The sample kernel configuration files reside in the sys/<arch>/conf
sub-directory (assuming that you've installed the kernel sources), the
file named GENERIC being the one used to build your initial installation
kernel.  The file NOTES contains entries and documentation for all possible
devices, not just those commonly used.  It is the successor of the ancient
LINT file, but in contrast to LINT, it is not buildable as a kernel but a
pure reference and documentation file.
