Smart NICs with firmware (eg wpi, iwn, the new atheros parts, the intel 7260
series, etc) support doing a lot of things in firmware. This includes but
isn't limited to things like scanning, sending probe requests and receiving
probe responses. However, net80211 doesn't know about any of this - it still
drives the whole scan/probe infrastructure itself.
In order to move towards suppoting smart NICs, the receive path needs to
know about the channel/details for each received packet. In at least
the iwn and 7260 firmware (and I believe wpi, but I haven't tried it yet)
it will do the scanning, power-save and off-channel buffering for you -
all you need to do is handle receiving beacons and probe responses on
channels that aren't what you're currently on. However the whole receive
path is peppered with ic->ic_curchan and manual scan/powersave handling.
The beacon parsing code also checks ic->ic_curchan to determine if the
received beacon is on the correct channel or not.[1]
So:
* add freq/ieee values to ieee80211_rx_stats;
* change ieee80211_parse_beacon() to accept the 'current' channel
as an argument;
* modify the iv_input() and iv_recv_mgmt() methods to include the rx_stats;
* add a new method - ieee80211_lookup_channel_rxstats() - that looks up
a channel based on the contents of ieee80211_rx_stats;
* if it exists, use it in the mgmt path to switch the current channel
(which still defaults to ic->ic_curchan) over to something determined
by rx_stats.
This is enough to kick-start scan offload support in the Intel 7260
driver that Rui/I are working on. It also is a good start for scan
offload support for a handful of existing NICs (wpi, iwn, some USB
parts) and it'll very likely dramatically improve stability/performance
there. It's not the whole thing - notably, we don't need to do powersave,
we should not scan all channels, and we should leave probe request sending
to the firmware and not do it ourselves. But, this allows for continued
development on the above features whilst actually having a somewhat
working NIC.
TODO:
* Finish tidying up how the net80211 input path works.
Right now ieee80211_input / ieee80211_input_all act as the top-level
that everything feeds into; it should change so the MIMO input routines
are those and the legacy routines are phased out.
* The band selection should be done by the driver, not by the net80211
layer.
* ieee80211_lookup_channel_rxstats() only determines 11b or 11g channels
for now - this is enough for scanning, but not 100% true in all cases.
If we ever need to handle off-channel scan support for things like
static-40MHz or static-80MHz, or turbo-G, or half/quarter rates,
then we should extend this.
[1] This is a side effect of frequency-hopping and CCK modes - you
can receive beacons when you think you're on a different channel.
In particular, CCK (which is used by the low 11b rates, eg beacons!)
is decodable from adjacent channels - just at a low SNR.
FH is a side effect of having the hardware/firmware do the frequency
hopping - it may pick up beacons transmitted from other FH networks
that are in a different phase of hopping frequencies.

Without this booting the VSATV102 causes the blue "working" led to turn
off when the kernel starts up. With this the led (which is turned on by
the firmware) stays on since that's the default state specified in the FDT.
Expanded the meaning of the led_create_state state parameter in order
to implement support for "keep". The original values were:
== 0 Off
!= 0 On
The new values are:
== -1 don't change / keep current setting
== 0 Off
!= -1 && != 0 On
This should have no effect on acpi_asus_attach which only calls
led_create_state with state set to 1. Updated acpi_ibm_attach
in order to avoid surprises.

- No more unnecessary busy loops on interrupt handler;
- style(9) fixes and code cleanup.

# Note: we treat too many commands as 'can't fail' if they don't work
# after a couple of retries. We need to fix that, but not today...
In both cases, the the effect of the bug was that a very small positive
number was written to the counter. This means that a large number of
events needed to occur before the next sampling interrupt would trigger.
Even with very frequently occurring events like clock cycles wrapping all
the way around could take a long time. Both bugs occurred when updating
the saved reload count for an outgoing thread on a context switch.
First, the counter-independent code compares the current reload count
against the count set when the thread switched in and generates a delta
to apply to the saved count. If this delta causes the reload counter
to go negative, it would add a full reload interval to wrap it around to
a positive value. The fix is to add the full reload interval if the
resulting counter is zero.
Second, occasionally the raw counter value read during a context switch
has actually wrapped, but an interrupt has not yet triggered. In this
case the existing logic would return a very large reload count (e.g.
2^48 - 2 if the counter had overflowed by a count of 2). This was seen
both for fixed-function and programmable counters on an E5-2643.
Workaround this case by returning a reload count of zero.

resource leak, reset the allocator state when the last ref to that
allocator is released.
Note that this only recovers leaked resources for an allocator when
there are no longer any users of that allocator, so there remain
circumstances in which leaked allocator resources may not ever be
recovered - consider a set of multiple netmap processes that are all
using the same allocator (say, the global allocator) where members of
that set may be killed and restarted over time but at any given point
there is one member of that set running.
