otherwise DTRACE_ANCHORED() returns false and that makes stack()
insert a bogus frame at the top.
For example:
dtrace -n 'test:dtrace_test::sdttest { stack(); }
This change is not really a solution, but just a work-around.
The real solution is to record the probe's call site and to use
that for resolving a function name.

This logic is mostly crimed from the reference driver and the linux
r92su driver.
I verified that it (a) worked on the rsu hardware I have, and (b)
did traffic testing whilst watching what ath(4) sent as a hostap.
It successfully sent MCS8..15 rates (which requires 2-stream reception)
as well as MCS0..7 (which is 1-stream.)
Tested:
* RTL8712, 1T1R NIC, MCS rates 0..7.
* RTL8712, 1T2R NIC, MCS rates 0..15
TODO:
* Find a 2T2R NIC!
* include opt_wlan.h like a good little wlan driver;
* add a function to free the mbufq /and/ the node references on it, or we will leak
said node references;
* free the mbufq upon NIC shutdown otherwise we may end up with a full list that
we never begin transmit work on, and thus never drain it;
* .. which frees it upon NIC detach too;
* ensure urtwn_start() gets called after the completion of frame TX even if the
pending queue is empty, otherwise transmit will stall. It's highly unlikely that
the usb tx queue would be empty whilst the incoming send queue is full, but hey,
who knows.
This passes some iperf testing with and without the NIC being actively removed during
said active iperf test.
Tested:
* urtwn0: MAC/BB RTL8188EU, RF 6052 1T1R ; STA mode
set to empty values, which would result in nonintuitive build
errors.

SDT_PROBE requires 5 parameters whereas SDT_PROBE<n> requires n parameters
where n is typically smaller than 5.
Perhaps SDT_PROBE should be made a private implementation detail.

Fast-frames:
* include opt_wlan.h ; tsk to not doing it earlier;
* add a tx pending tracking counter for seeing how deep
the hardware TX queue is;
* add the frame aging code from if_ath;
* add fast-frames capability to the driver setup.
Bugs:
* free the buffers (and node references) before
detaching net80211 state. This prevents a use-after-free in
the node free path where we've destroyed net80211 underneath it.
field and into a separate fast-frames staging pointer in ieee80211_node.
The A-MPDU TX path allows txa_private to be used by drivers. So it will
clash with any attempt to use fast-frames. Now, fast-frames is not really
anything special - it's just a custom ethernet frame type that contains
two MSDUs into one MPDU. So all the NIC has to support doing is transmitting
up to a 4KiB frame with an arbitrary ethertype and bam! Fast-frames.
However, using txa_private means we can /either/ do fast-frames or A-MPDU TX,
so fast frames has been turned off in the Atheros HAL for 11n chipsets.
This is a bit silly - it actually means that 802.11 performance to/from
11abg Atheros chips is actually better than between an 11abg atheros device
and an 11n Atheros device.
So:
* create a new mbuf staging queue for fast frames. It only queues a single
frame in the staging queue (and there's a top-level ic staging queue
used for expiry/tracking) so it's just an mbuf pointer per TID.
* Still use the ampdu TX packet counter to determine whether to do
aggregation or not. It'll double count if we start doing both A-MPDU TX
and fast frames, but that's not all that important right now.
* Initialise the pps tracker so ticks isn't zero. This ensures that
fast-frames actually gets used - without it, the ticks math overflows
and the pps math always sets txa_pps=0. This is the same bug that
plagued A-MPDU TX starting logic.
This actually allows fast-frames transmit to occur between the AR9331
(in 11n HT/20 mode) and AR9170 (if_otus) in 11bg mode.
Now, this is a great big no-op on atheros 11n hardware, so don't worry.
It may mean you start seeing more reliable fast-frames transmission on
11abg hardware which may expose some more amusing bugs.
TODO:
* further testing and debugging of all of this before flipping on
fast-frames in if_ath (for 11n) and if_otus.
in the superg fast-frames code.
This harks back to an earlier commit (r280349) where I found that
initialising the pps code with ticks=0 would cause hilariously bad
hz ticks wraparound failures, leading to never actually aggregating
traffic. This is still true for the superg path and so I have to
do the same thing there.
This is a big no-op; a subsequent commit will flip this on so it
works with the fast-frames transmit path.
Tested:
* AR9170, otus(4) - STA mode, 11bg operation
* AR9331, AP mode
The old code was exponential in the number of asterisks in the pattern.
However, once a match has been found upto the next asterisk, the previous
asterisks are no longer relevant.
Don't make an integer to a boolean and then compare to a value which
needs an integer comparison.

Initially function was introduced in r53541 (KAME initial commit) to
"provide hints from upper layer protocols that indicate a connection
is making "forward progress"" (quote from RFC 2461 7.3.1 Reachability
Confirmation).
However, it was converted to do nothing (e.g. just return) in r122922
(tcp_hostcache implementation) back in 2003. Some defines were moved
to tcp_var.h in r169541. Then, it was broken (for non-corner cases)
by r186119 (L2<>L3 split) in 2008 (NULL ifp in nd6_lookup). So,
right now this code is broken and has no "real" base users.
Differential Revision: https://reviews.freebsd.org/D3699
- Allow vfs_vmio_invalidate() to free the pages, leaving us with a
single loop and bufobj lock when B_NOCACHE/B_INVAL is used.
- Eliminate the special B_ASYNC handling on free that has not been
relevant for some time.
- Remove the extraneous page busy from vfs_vmio_truncate().

instead of old "ignore-and-return 0" in r287789. This broke arp -da /
ndp -cn behavior (they exit on rtsock command failure). Fix this by
translating LLE_IFADDR to RTM_PINNED flag, passing it to userland and
making arp/ndp ignore these entries in batched delete.
