that Asus provides on its CDs has both a MiniportSend() routine
and a MiniportSendPackets() function. The Microsoft NDIS docs say
that if a driver has both, only the MiniportSendPackets() routine
will be used. Although I think I implemented the support correctly,
calling the MiniportSend() routine seems to result in no packets going
out on the air, even though no error status is returned. The
MiniportSendPackets() function does work though, so at least in
this case it doesn't matter.
In if_ndis.c:ndis_getstate_80211(), if ndis_get_assoc() returns
an error, don't bother trying to obtain any other state since the
calls may fail, or worse cause the underlying driver to crash.
(The above two changes make the Asus-supplied Centrino work.)
Also, when calling the OID_802_11_CONFIGURATION OID, remember
to initialize the structure lengths correctly.
In subr_ndis.c:ndis_open_file(), set the current working directory
to rootvnode if we're in a thread that doesn't have a current
working directory set.
machdep.c fixed the missing early initialization of curpcb, so curpcb
is now always set together with curthread and it cannot be NULL except
before the IDT has been set up (so trap() is unreachable) or after a
memory error. In any case, it was often used without checking.
curcpb shouldn't exist anyway. It doesn't exist for most non-i386 arches.
It just caches curthread->td_pcb in a global. This was a better idea
before it was per-cpu. trap() and some other places can get at it more
efficiently using td->td_pcb instead of PCPU_GET(curpcb). The main
exception is support.s which mostly wants only curpcb->pcb_onfault.

not once per pipe. Not really any measurable performance change
in my micro-benchmarks, but doing less work is good, especially when
it comes to atomic operations.

seconds. This is needed because some systems will report an invalid high
temperature for one poll cycle. It is suspected this is due to the
embedded controller timing out. A typical value is 138C for one cycle on a
system that is otherwise 65C. This prevents the system from prematurely
shutting down after one invalid reading. It will still shut down after 30
seconds of high temperature, which is the same as previous default

Also, for now, don't do anything special in the ndis_suspend() method.
I originally wanted to shut down the NIC but leave the IFF_UP flag alone
since technically the interface is meant to remain up, but an interrupt
may be delivered to the ISR on suspend, and if this happens while the
NIC is halted, we will crash, since none of the miniport driver methods
will function.
This needs to be dealt with properly later, but for now this prevents
a panic, and the resume method properly re-inits the NIC.

would allocate two 'struct pipe's from the pipe zone, and malloc a
mutex.
- Create a new "struct pipepair" object holding the two 'struct
pipe' instances, struct mutex, and struct label reference. Pipe
structures now have a back-pointer to the pipe pair, and a
'pipe_present' flag to indicate whether the half has been
closed.
- Perform mutex init/destroy in zone init/destroy, avoiding
reallocating the mutex for each pipe. Perform most pipe structure
setup in zone constructor.
- VM memory mappings for pageable buffers are still done outside of
the UMA zone.
- Change MAC API to speak 'struct pipepair' instead of 'struct pipe',
update many policies. MAC labels are also handled outside of the
UMA zone for now. Label-only policy modules don't have to be
recompiled, but if a module is recompiled, its pipe entry points
will need to be updated. If a module actually reached into the
pipe structures (unlikely), that would also need to be modified.
These changes substantially simplify failure handling in the pipe
code as there are many fewer possible failure modes.
On half-close, pipes no longer free the 'struct pipe' for the closed
half until a full-close takes place. However, VM mapped buffers
are still released on half-close.
Some code refactoring is now possible to clean up some of the back
references, etc; this patch attempts not to change the structure
of most of the pipe implementation, only allocation/free code
paths, so as to avoid introducing bugs (hopefully).
This cuts about 8%-9% off the cost of sequential pipe allocation
and free in system call tests on UP and SMP in my micro-benchmarks.
May or may not make a difference in macro-benchmarks, but doing
less work is good.
