When I initially did this 11n TX work in days of yonder, my 802.11 standards
clue was ... not as finely tuned. One of the things in 802.11-2012 (which
I guess technically was after I did this work, but I'm sure it was like this
in the previous rev?) is that among other traffic classes, three things are
important:
* group addressed frames should be default non-QoS, even if they're QoS frames, and
* group addressed frames should have a seqno out of a different space than the
per-TID QoS one; and because of this
* group addressed frames, being non-QoS, should never be in the Block-ACK window
for TX.
Now, net80211 and now this code cheats by using the non-QOS TID, but ideally
we'd introduce a separate seqno space just for multicast/group traffic for
TX and RX comparison.
Later extensions (eg reliable multicast / multimedia) express what one should do
when doing multicast traffic in a TID. Now, technically we /could/ do group traffic
as QoS traffic and throw it into a per-TID seqno space, but this definitely
introduces ordering issues when you take into account things like CABQ behaviour.
(Ie, if some traffic in the TID goes into the CABQ and some doesn't, because
it's doing a split of multicast and non-multicast traffic, then you have
seqno ordering issues.)
So, until someone implements 802.11vv reliable multicast / multimedia extensions,
group traffic is non-QoS.
Next, software/hardware queue TID mapping. In the past I believed the WME tagging
of frames because well, net80211 had a habit of tagging things like management
traffic with it. But, then we also map QoS traffic categories to TIDs as well.
So, we should obey the TID! But! then it put some management traffic into higher
WME categories too, as those frames don't have QoS TIDs. But! It'd do things like
put things like QoS action frames into higher WME categories, when they should
be kept in-order with the rest of the traffic for that TID. So! Given all of this,
the ath(4) driver does overrides to not trust the WME category.
I .. am undoing some of this. Now, the TID has a 1:1 mapping to the hardware
queue. The TID is the primary source of truth now for all QoS traffic.
The WME is only used for non-QoS traffic. This now means that any TID traffic
queued should be consistently queued regardless of WME, so things like the
"TX finished, do more TX" that is occuring right now for transmit handling
should be "better".
The consistent {TID, WME} -> hardware queue mapping is important for
transmit completion. It's used to schedule more traffic for that
particular TID, because that {many TID}:{1 TXQ} mapping in ath_tx_tid_sched()
is used for driving completion. Ie, when the hardware queue completes,
it'll walk that list of scheduled TIDs attached to that TXQ.
The eventual aim is to get ready for some other features around putting
some data into other hardware queues (eg for better PS-POLL support,
uAPSD, support, correct-er TDMA support, etc) which requires that
I tidy all of this up in preparation for then introducing further
TID scheduling that isn't linked to a hardware TXQ (likely a per-WME, per-TID
driver queue, and a per-node driver queue) to enable that.
Tested:
* AR9380, STA mode
* AR9380, AR9580, AP mode
cleanups enabled by that:
- The only thing left in imx_gptvar.h was the softc, which IMO never
should have been in there at all. Move it into the driver, and
delete the header file.
- Remove several unneeded #includes from the driver.
- Change imx_gpt_softc from global to static (it's used by DELAY()), and
don't redundantly static-initialize it to NULL.
In pf_route6() we re-run the ruleset with PF_FWD if the packet goes out
of a different interface. pf_test6() needs to know that the packet was
forwarded (in case it needs to refragment so it knows whether to call
ip6_output() or ip6_forward()).
This lead pf_test6() to try to evaluate rules against the PF_FWD
direction, which isn't supported, so it needs to treat PF_FWD as PF_OUT.
Once fwdir is set correctly the correct output/forward function will be
called.

man(1) has some logic to use two spaces after a full stop, which is
useful for spotting sentence breaks in monospace fonts. However,
this logic is very simple, treating almost all '.' characters as
end-of-sentence markers, unless followed by certain other
characters. For example, '.,' is not end-of-sentence, and neither
is ".) ", but ".)" at the end of a line triggers the sentence-end
detection.
Apply a zero-width space to a few instances of this in share/man,
and also supply a missing full stop for an instance that occurred at
the end of a sentence.
Leave untouched several instances that are at the end of a sentence

Typically, when elf_load_section() unconditionally passed VM_PROT_ALL to

its parameter "prot" to elf_map_insert(). So, elf_load_section() must

- PIE_MAX_PROB is compared to variable of int64_t and the type promotion
rules can cause the value of that variable to be treated as unsigned.
If the value is actually negative, then the result of the comparsion
is incorrect, causing the algorithm to perform poorly in some
situations. Changing the constant to be signed cause the comparision
to work correctly.
- PIE_SCALE is also compared to signed values. Fortunately they are
also compared to zero and negative values are discarded so this is
more of a cosmetic fix.
- PIE_DQ_THRESHOLD is only compared to unsigned values, but it is small
enough that the automatic promotion to unsigned is harmless.

supply the addresses for the DPLL register blocks) by hard-coding the
addresses in the driver source code. Yes, this is just as bad an idea as
it sounds, but we have no choice.
In the early days of using fdt data, when we were making up our own data
for each board, we defined 4 sets of memory mapped registers in the data.
The vendor-supplied data only provides the address of the CCM register
block, but not the 3 DPLL blocks. The linux driver has the DPLL physical
addresses (which differ by SOC type) hard-coded in the driver, and we
have no choice but to do the same thing if we want to run with the vendor-
supplied fdt data.
So now we use bus_space_map() to make the DPLL blocks accessible, choosing
the set of fixed addresses to map based on the soc id.
A couple of the ptrace tests make assumptions about which thread in a
multithreaded process will run after a halt. This makes the tests less
portable across branches, and susceptible to future breakage. Instead,
twiddle thread scheduling and priorities to match the tests'
expectation.

for vt. Restore syscons' rendering of background (bg) brightness as
foreground (fg) blinking and vice versa, and add rendering of blinking
as background brightness to vt.
Bright/saturated is conflated with light/white in the implementation
and in this description.
Bright colors were broken in all cases, but appeared to work in the
only case shown by "vidcontrol show". A boldness hack was applied
only in 1 layering-violation place (for some syscons sequences) where
it made some cases seem to work but was undone by clearing bold using
ANSI sequences, and more seriously was not undone when setting
ANSI/xterm dark colors so left them bright. Move this hack to drivers.
The boldness hack is only for fg brightness. Restore/add a similar hack
for bg brightness rendered as fg blinking and vice versa. This works
even better for vt, since vt changes the default text mode to give the
more useful bg brightness instead of fg blinking.
The brightness bit in colors was unnecessarily removed by the boldness
hack. In other cases, it was lost later by teken_256to8(). Use
teken_256to16() to not lose it. teken_256to8() was intended to be
used for bg colors to allow finer or bg-specific control for the more
difficult reduction to 8; however, since 16 bg colors actually work
on VGA except in syscons text mode and the conversion isn't subtle
enough to significantly in that mode, teken_256to8() is not used now.
There are still bugs, especially in vidcontrol, if bright/blinking
background colors are set.
Restore XOR logic for bold/bright fg in syscons (don't change OR
logic for vt). Remove broken ifdef on FG_UNDERLINE and its wrong
or missing bit and restore the correct hard-coded bit. FG_UNDERLINE
is only for mono mode which is not really supported.
Restore XOR logic for blinking/bright bg in syscons (in vt, add
OR logic and render as bright bg). Remove related broken ifdef
on BG_BLINKING and its missing bit and restore the correct
hard-coded bit. The same bit means blinking or bright bg depending
on the mode, and we want to ignore the difference everywhere.
Simplify conversions of attributes in syscons. Don't pretend to
support bold fonts. Don't support unusual encodings of brightness.
It is as good as possible to map 16 VGA colors to 16 xterm-16
colors. E.g., VGA brown -> xterm-16 Olive will be converted back
to VGA brown, so we don't need to convert to xterm-256 Brown. Teken
cons25 compatibility code already does the same, and duplicates some
small tables. This is mostly for the sc -> te direction. The other
direction uses teken_256to16() which is too generic.
in practice).
db_expr_t is a signed type, but right shifts are fudged to evaluate
them in an unsigned type, and the unsigned type was broken by hard-
coding it as 'unsigned', so casting to it lost the top bits on arches
with db_expr_t larger than u_int.
The unsigned type with the same size as db_expr_t is not declared;
assume that db_addr_t gives it. Fixing this properly is less important
than using the correct type for db_expr_t (originally always long for
C90, but always intmax_t since C99).
Rules are unlinked in shutdown_pf(), so we must call
pf_unload_vnet_purge(), which frees unlinked rules, after that, not

There are a small set of nearly trivial cases where the startup overhead
of the musl implementation makes it slightly slower -- for example, a 31
byte needle that matches the beginning of the haystack. It's faster for
non-trivial cases, and significantly so for inputs that trigger worst-
case behaviour of the previous implementation. As an example, in my

2000x faster with this implementation.

Extend the Book-E pmap to support 64-bit operation. Much of this was taken from
Juniper's Junos FreeBSD port. It uses a 3-level page table (page directory
list -- PP2D, page directory, page table), but has gaps in the page directory
list where regions will repeat, due to the design of the PP2D hash (a 20-bit gap
between the two parts of the index). In practice this may not be a problem
given the expanded address space. However, an alternative to this would be to
use a 4-level page table, like Linux, and possibly reduce the available address
space; Linux appears to use a 46-bit address space. Alternatively, a cache of
page directory pointers could be used to keep the overall design as-is, but
remove the gaps in the address space.
This includes a new kernel config for 64-bit QorIQ SoCs, based on MPC85XX, with
the following notes:
* The DPAA driver has not yet been ported to 64-bit so is not included in the
kernel config.
* This has been tested on the AmigaOne X5000, using a MD_ROOT compiled in
(total size kernel+mdroot must be under 64MB).
* This can run both 32-bit and 64-bit processes, and has even been tested to run
a 32-bit init with 64-bit children.
