- Fix up TX speed changes.
- Make mpi-350 cards sort-of work with new firmware. It RXs okay but TXs
only work for about 14 packets then fails to get an interrupt. The
TX watchdog fires. It has been reported that my hack for now doesn't
break cards with the older firmware. It appears my card has lost
the ability to RX or TX at all but other peoples cards work. I assume
it got damaged in tansport.

count handling of station entries in hostap mode:
Input path:
o driver is now expected to find the node associated with the
sender of a received frame; use ic_bss if none is located
o driver passes the (referenced) node into ieee80211_input for
use within the wlan module and is responsible for cleaning up
on return
o the antenna state is no longer passed up with each frame; this
is now considered driver-private state and drivers are responsible
for keeping it in the driver-private part of a node
Output path:
Revamp output path for management frames to eliminate redundant
locking that causes problems and to correct reference counting
bogosity that occurs when stations are timed out due to inactivity
(in AP mode). On output the refcnt'd node is stashed in the pkthdr's
recvif field (yech) and retrieved by the driver. This eliminates
an unref/ref scenario and related node table unlock/lock due to the
driver looking up the node. This is particularly important when
stations are timed out as this causes a lock order reversal that
can result in a deadlock. As a byproduct we also reduce the overhead
for sending management frames (minimal). Additional fallout from
this is a change to ieee80211_encap to return a refcn't node for
tieing to the outbound frame. Node refcnts are not reclaimed until
after a frame is completely processed (e.g. in the tx interrupt
handler). This is especially important for timed out stations as
this deref will be the final one causing the node entry to be
reclaimed.
Additional semi-related changes:
o replace m_copym use with m_copypacket (optimization)
o add assert to verify ic_bss is never free'd during normal operation
o add comments explaining calling conventions by drivers for frames
going in each direction
o remove extraneous code that "cannot be executed" (e.g. because
pointers may never be null)
that caused a 3-4 times slow down in performance.
(the primary Sparc64 developers are all using OFW_NEWPCI already, so it is
the best code path for users)
quietly discard them; this just permits them to be collected with bpf)
o add a counter for the number of rate control frames discarded when not in
monitor mode
o move the rx "too short" statistic in the stat structure so non-error rx stats
are together (NB: ABI change to apps that collect stats via driver ioctl)
mistakes (this mistake was not an issue because the length is only used to
decide whether or not to allocate a cluster)
o while here, move a beacon length comment to the "right place"
_pmap_allocpte(): Guarantee that the page table page is zero filled before
adding it to the directory. Otherwise, a 2nd, 3rd, etc. thread could
access a nearby virtual address and use garbage for the address
translation.

of bw_meter entries were processed up to one second ahead.
After an unappropriate rescheduling of some of the bw_meter
entries, the upcalls weren't delivered.
* pim_register_prepare() uses the appropriate sw_csum flag to
call ip_fragment() so the IP checksum is computed properly.
* Modify pim_register_prepare() to take care of IP packets that
don't need fragmentation.
* Add-back in_delayed_cksum() to encap_send(), because it seems it
should be there.

also fixes pfs_access() since it relies on VOP_GETATTR() which will call
pfs_getattr(). This prevents jailed processes from discovering the
existence, start time and ownership of processes outside the jail.

present, and non-zero when it is (or may be) absent. The test
cbb_child_present was backwards. However, typical usage in the tree
would cause it to do the right thing because the card really wasn't
there the OK flag would be turned on.
Also, assume that if any of these bits are turned on we don't have a
card, rather than requiring both of them in the suspend/resume
routines.

directories. Previously, pfs_iterate() would return -1 when it
reached the end of the process list while processing a process
directory node, even if the parent directory contained further nodes
(which is the case for the linprocfs root directory, where the process
directory node is actually first in the list). With this patch,
pfs_iterate() will continue to traverse the parent directory's node
list after exhausting the process list (as was the intention all
along). The code should hopefully be easier to read as well.
While I'm here, have pfs_iterate() assert that the allproc lock is
held.
to what is in NetBSD. I have a few cards that tickles this bug, and
this just keeps us from panicing. It doesn't actually fix the problem
(that will happen once I figure out why some cards hate the address
their CIS is mapped to high memory).
binaries in /bin and /sbin installed in /lib. Only the versioned files
reside in /lib, the .so symlink continues to live /usr/lib so the
toolchain doesn't need to be modified.
