The eeprom Get method should return HAL_OK if fastclock is enabled in the
EEPROM. It was returning the opposite of what it should have.
Submitted by: Matthew Fleming <mdf356@gmail.com>
The code assumed it could return HAL_OK, HAL_EINVAL and other
HAL_STATUS types; so it shouldn't be declared as returning HAL_BOOL.

the register stack. While the ordering doesn't matter, it creates an
invariant not previously there: the memory stack pointer will always be
larger than the register stack pointer. With this invariant in place,
it's easier to add instrumentation code that detects a stack overflow
because in such a scenario the memory stack pointer and register stack
pointers have crossed each other.
Aside: basic kernel operation needs about half the stack size (~16K)
at most. We have plenty of head room on the kernel stack...
o Clobber the register that holds the restart token immediately after
crossing the restart point. This prevents false positives (i.e. a
nested exception that we don't know can happen and that is being
treated as one we know by virtue of a lingering restart token).
o Now that the bootstrap kernel stack is free, switch onto it and call
trap() for nested traps that we don't know about. In trap we panic()
so that we can analyze the condition.
I've tested this locally and it does indeed read and attach to an AR9287
EEPROM. But a lot more code needs to be ported over to the HAL before
the AR9287 is functional.
I'm importing this separate from the rest of the codebase (and unlinked from
the build for now) in case someone wishes to begin fiddling with porting
the rest of the code over from Linux ath9k.

unneeded -mno-* flags.
Note that clang does not yet enable AVX support for any CPU. However at some
point in the future it will and since we definitely want to disable it for the

The Atheros HAL code does this for Sowl/Howl but not for Owl (AR5416) where
RIFS is disabled by default.
This seems to quieten the occasional baseband hang I've been seeing with
the AR9160 in STA mode under constant heavy traffic load.

file and processes information retrieval from the running kernel via sysctl
in the form of new library, libprocstat. The library also supports KVM backend
for analyzing memory crash dumps. Both procstat(1) and fstat(1) utilities have
been modified to take advantage of the library (as the bonus point the fstat(1)
utility no longer need superuser privileges to operate), and the procstat(1)
utility is now able to display information from memory dumps as well.
The newly introduced fuser(1) utility also uses this library and able to operate
via sysctl and kvm backends.
The library is by no means complete (e.g. KVM backend is missing vnode name
resolution routines, and there're no manpages for the library itself) so I
plan to improve it further. I'm commiting it so it will get wider exposure
and review.
We won't be able to MFC this work as it relies on changes in HEAD, which
was introduced some time ago, that break kernel ABI. OTOH we may be able
to merge the library with KVM backend if we really need it there.

In setups where NF calibration can take a while, don't load the CCA
and kick off a new NF calibration if the previous one hasn't yet
completed. This shouldn't happen unless the environment is noisy but
those exist (hi phk!).
Here, if the previous NF hasn't completed when ar5416LoadNf() is run
(which reads the NF), it skips updating the history buffer, loading
the NF CCA array and kicking off the next NF cal. It's hoped it'll
occur in the next long calibration interval.

This is taking quite a while for some people in some situations
(eg AR5418 in phk's Abusive Radio Environment).
Instead, the rest of the calibration related code should
ensure that a NF calibration has occured before reading NF
values and kicking off another NF calibration.
The channel should also likely be marked as "noisy" (CWINT)
if the NF calibration takes too long.

indication that buffer manager should not be touched on these
controllers. It seems the buffer manager always runs on BCM5705 or
newer controllers. Some controller(e.g. BCM5719) needs other buffer
manager configuration so driver should enable buffer manager for
all controllers. Both Linux and OpenBSD/NetBSD use the same
approach.

Using the default RX fast diversity settings seems to help quite

Whilst I'm here, change the prototype to return HAL_BOOL rather than int.
I'm not sure whether we should install teken as a library on any stock
FreeBSD installation, but I can imagine people want to tinker around
with it now and then. Create a /sys/teken/libteken, which holds a
Makefile to install a shared library version of the terminal emulator,
complete with a manpage.
Also add Makefiles for the demo/stress applications, to build it against
the shared library.
For now, the diversity settings are controlled by 'txantenna',
-not- rxantenna. This is because the earlier chipsets had
controllable TX diversity; the RX antenna setting twiddles
the default antenna register. I'll try sort that stuff out at
some point.
Call the antenna switch function from the board setup function
so scans, channel changes, mode changes, etc don't set the
diversity back to a default state too far from what's intended.
Things to todo:
* Squirrel away the last antenna diversity/combining parameters
and restore them during board setup if HAL_ANT_VARIABLE is
defined. That way scans, etc don't reset the diversity settings.
* Add some more public facing statistics, rather than what's
simply logged under HAL_DEBUG_DIVERSITY.
For now, the fixed antenna settings behave better than variable
settings for me. I have some further fiddling to do..

keep constant ISN growth rate, do the same directly inside tcp_new_isn(),
taking into account how much time (ticks) passed since the last call.
On my test systems this decreases idle interrupt rate from 140Hz to 70Hz.
The macro which I incorrectly copied into ah_internal.h assumed
that it'd be called with an AR_SREV_MERLIN_20() check to ensure
it was only enabled for Merlin (AR9280) silicon revision 2.0 or
later.
Trouble is, the 5GHz fast clock EEPROM flag is only valid for
EEPROM revision 16 or greater; it's assumed to be enabled
by default for Merlin rev >= 2.0. This meant it'd be incorrectly
set for AR5416 and AR9160 in 5GHz mode.
This would have affected non-default clock timings such as SIFS,
ACK and slot time. The incorrect slot time was very likely wrong
for 5ghz mode.
