nb_size field in an ndis_buffer is meant to represent, but it does not
represent the original allocation size, so the sanity check doesn't
make any sense now that we're using the Windows-mandated initialization
method.
Among other things, this makes the following card work with the
NDISulator:
ndis0: <NETGEAR PA301 Phoneline10X PCI Adapter> mem 0xda004000-0xda004fff irq 10 at device 9.0 on pci0
This is that notoriously undocumented 10Mbps HomePNA Broadcom chipset
that people wanted support for many moons ago. Sadly, the only other
HomePNA NIC I have handy is a 1Mbps device, so I can't actually do
any 10Mbps performance tests, but it talks to my 1Mbps ADMtek card
just fine.

leaks reported on -current. This should probably be merged into 5.2.

o move tx taps from ath_start to ath_tx_start so lots more
state is available to tap
o add tx flags
o add tx rate
o add tx power (constant for the moment)
o add tx antenna state
o #ifdef _KERNEL the fallback definition for DLT_IEEE802_11_RADIO
o fix many comments
o rename antenna stuff and fix units/reference signal
o change IEEE80211_RADIOTAP_DBM_TX_POWER from unsigned 16-bit value
to a signed 8-bit value
o change IEEE80211_RADIOTAP_FLAGS from 16 bits to 8 bits to simplify
padding requirements
o drop IEEE80211_RADIOTAP_TIME
o change IEEE80211_RADIOTAP_ANTENNA from 16 bits to 8 bits
o drop IEEE80211_RADIOTAP_PAD
o add channel flag definitions for outside the kernel so radiotap
doesn't depend on stuff in ieee80211*.h

the middle of auxiliary functions following kern_execve(). Moved the
__mac_execve() syscall function up together with execve(). It was new in
rev1.1.196 and perfectly misplaced after execve().
a new bpf_mtap2 routine that does the right thing for an mbuf

o while we're sweeping the drivers, use u_int32_t uniformly when

sizeof(int) was 4)
o return M_ASSERTVALID to BPF_MTAP* now that all stack-allocated
mbufs have been eliminated; this may better be moved to the bpf

(most recently bde), so I'll commit the module I've had knocking
around in my tree for a while. This may have some rough edges, so if
you are able to build it on non-i386 platform (including pc98) please
let me know you succeeded. When I get enough reports, I'll connect it
to the build. If there are problems, feel free to fix them.

sched_cpu() locks an sx lock (allproc_lock) which can sleep if it fails to
acquire the lock, it is not safe to execute this in a callout handler from
softclock().
For received packets, an status of NDIS_STATUS_RESOURCES means we need
to copy the packet data and return the ndis_packet to the driver immediatel.
NDIS_STATUS_SUCCESS means we get to hold onto the packet, but we have
to set the status to NDIS_STATUS_PENDING so the driver knows we're
going to hang onto it for a while.
For transmit packets, NDIS_STATUS_PENDING means the driver will
asynchronously return the packet to us via the ndis_txeof() routine,
and NDIS_STATUS_SUCCESS means the driver sent the frame, and NDIS
(i.e. the OS) retains ownership of the packet and can free it
right away.
evaluate them. Whatever they're meant to do, they're doing it wrong.
Also:
- Clean up last bits of NULL fallout in subr_pe
- Don't let ndis_ifmedia_sts() do anything if the IFF_UP flag isn't set
- Implement NdisSystemProcessorCount() and NdisQueryMapRegisterCount().
packet being freed has NDIS_STATUS_PENDING in the status field of
the OOB data. Finish implementing the "alternative" packet-releasing
function so it doesn't crash.
For those that are curious about ndis0: <ORiNOCO 802.11abg ComboCard Gold>:
