requirements.
Don't start the opmode and join path until a pending survey is finished.
This seems to reliably fix things.
Ideally I'd just finish off the net80211 pluggable scan stuff and implement
the methods here so if_rsu can just drive the scan machinery.
However, that's a .. later thing.
Whilst here, remove the getbuf debugging; it's okay to run out of transmit
buffers under load; it however isn't okay to not be able to send commands.
I'll fix that later.
for re-ordering.
Devices like if_rsu don't pass through action/management frames but do send
firmware commands to inform us of things. One of those notifications is
the RX A-MPDU negotiated parameters.
* Add a tunable to enable 11n if it's available, so to not anger people
who upgrade.
kenv hw.usb.rsu.enable_11n=1 before inserting the device.
* Add initial 11n htconfig bits;
* Enable 40MHz mode if it's available;
* Add 11n channels;
* Set 11n bits in the firmware.
It works for RX; I haven't tested TX aggregation just yet.
However the firmware doesn't do RX re-ordering, so I have to tie it into
the net80211 A-MPDU RX reorder path before I flip this on by default.
I've verified that I'm indeed actually seeing MCS 0->7 rates being received.
I haven't dug into whether it's actually transmitting 11n rates; I'll dig into
that later.
with a reference count of zero can't possibly be mapped, so there is never a
need for vm_page_set_invalid() to call pmap_remove_all() on them.

is relocated to the kernel's expected location during the transfer of
control from the loader to the kernel.
The GENERIC kernel on amd64 has recently grown such that a kernel + zfs.ko
no longer fits in the default staging size. Bump the default size from
32MB to 48MB to provide more breathing room.

* the tx descriptor TID is priority, not TID.
* the tx descriptor queue id mapping is separate from the
TID/priority; rather than just "BE".
TODO:
* go and re-re-re-verify the queue mappings; the linux and openbsd
mappings aren't exactly the same. I need to verify all of this
before I try to flip on 11n RX.
* Do 1T1R for now, until we read the config out of ROM and use it.
* Disable turbo mode, I dunno what this is, but the linux drivers
have this disabled.
* Set the firmware endpoints to what we read from USB.
Tested:
* RTL8712 cut 3, STA mode
data queues.
This is similar to the openbsd and rtlwifi/r92su drivers.
Note: this driver still assumes it's a 4-endpoint device; I'll enforce
that in a follow-up commit.
Due to the use of int's for file offsets in the VOP_WRITE_(PRE|POST)
macros, kqueue write events for files greater 2GB where never fired.
This caused tail -f on a file greater 2GB to never see updates.

Currently FreeBSD supports only single PIC controller. Some systems
that have more than one (like ThunderX dual-socket) fails to boot.
Disable other PICes until proper handling is implemented in the

When the system has more than a single PCI domain, the bus numbers
are not unique, thus they cannot be used for "pci" device numbering.
Change bus numbers to -1 (i.e. to-be-determined automatically)
wherever the code did not care about domains.

TDB_USERWR flag may still be set after a debugger detaches from a
process via PT_DETACH. Previously the flag would never be cleared
forcing a double fetch of the system call arguments for each system
call. Note that the flag cannot be cleared at PT_DETACH time in case
one of the threads in the process is currently stopped in
syscallenter() and the debugger has modified the arguments for that
pending system call before detaching.

behavior is triggered for any type of process stop including ptrace() stops
and transient stops for single threading during exit() and execve().
Thus, if a debugger is attached to a process in a group when the leader
exits, the entire group can be HUPed. Instead, only send the signals if a
process in the group is stopped due to SIGSTOP.

Problem description:
How do we currently perform layer 2 resolution and header imposition:
For IPv4 we have the following chain:
ip_output() -> (ether|atm|whatever)_output() -> arpresolve()
Lookup is done in proper place (link-layer output routine) and it is possible
to provide cached lle data.
For IPv6 situation is more complex:
ip6_output() -> nd6_output() -> nd6_output_ifp() -> (whatever)_output() ->
nd6_storelladdr()
We have ip6_ouput() which calls nd6_output() instead of link output routine.
nd6_output() does the following:
* checks if lle exists, creates it if needed (similar to arpresolve())
* performes lle state transitions (similar to arpresolve())
* calls nd6_output_ifp() which pushes packets to link output routine along
with running SeND/MAC hooks regardless of lle state
(e.g. works as run-hooks placeholder).
After that, iface output routine like ether_output() calls nd6_storelladdr()
which performs lle lookup once again.
As a result, we perform lookup twice for each outgoing packet for most types
of interfaces. We also need to maintain runtime-checked table of 'nd6-free'
interfaces (see nd6_need_cache()).
Fix this behavior by eliminating first ND lookup. To be more specific:
* make all nd6_output() consumers use nd6_output_ifp() instead
* rename nd6_output[_slow]() to nd6_resolve_[slow]()
* convert nd6_resolve() and nd6_resolve_slow() to arpresolve() semantics,
e.g. copy L2 address to buffer instead of pushing packet towards lower
layers
* Make all nd6_storelladdr() users use nd6_resolve()
* eliminate nd6_storelladdr()
The resulting callchain is the following:
ip6_output() -> nd6_output_ifp() -> (whatever)_output() -> nd6_resolve()
Error handling:
Currently sending packet to non-existing la results in ip6_<output|forward>
-> nd6_output() -> nd6_output _lle() which returns 0.
In new scenario packet is propagated to <ether|whatever>_output() ->
nd6_resolve() which will return EWOULDBLOCK, and that result
will be converted to 0.
(And EWOULDBLOCK is actually used by IB/TOE code).
