environments into the kernel environment.
The eventual aim is to replace these with specific drivers for
the various bootloaders (redboot, uboot, etc.) This however will
work for the time being until it can be properly addressed.

get's defragged due to a mapping failure the header
pointers will be invalidated and can result in a
TSO or other failure down the line. So, when the
remapping occurs force a retry thru the offload
calculation code. Thanks to Andrew Boyer for discovering
this and cooking up the fix!!
to calculate the outstanding descriptors that need to be
refreshed at any time, and use THAT in rxeof to determine
if refreshing needs to be done. Also change the local_timer
to simply fire off the appropriate interrupt rather than
schedule a tasklet, its simpler.

bus driver will now remember the size of a BAR obtained during the initial
bus scan and use that size when doing lazy resource allocation rather than
resizing the BAR. The bus driver will now also report unallocated BARs to
userland for display by 'pciconf -lb'. Psuedo-resources that are not BARs
(such as the implicit I/O port resources for master/slave ATA controllers)
will no longer be listed as BARs in 'pciconf -lb'. During resume, BARs are
restored from their new saved state instead of having the raw registers
saved and restored across resume. This also fixes restoring BARs at
unusual loactions if said BAR has been allocated by a driver.
Add a constant for the offset of the ROM BIOS BAR in PCI-PCI bridges and
properly handle ROM BIOS BARs in PCI-PCI bridges. The PCI bus now also
properly handles the lack of a ROM BIOS BAR in a PCI-Cardbus bridge.

Introduce the AHB glue for Atheros embedded systems. Right now it's
hard-coded for the AR9130 chip whose support isn't yet in this HAL;
it'll be added in a subsequent commit.
Kernel configuration files now need both 'ath' and 'ath_pci' devices; both
modules need to be loaded for the ath device to work.
in the RX path when doing 11n and block-ack'ed frames. Apparently, the MAC
will loop over that self-linked descriptor and treat it as "good enough"
for (incorrectly!) ACKing the frames in the block-ack.
Until I figure out how to work around this issue in the future, this counter
will tell me if packet RX processing ever gets to the point where it's
touching the self-linked descriptor. If there's ever enough packets to get
to that point, BA's will be invalid and likely very unhappy.
of active DMA cycle. dc_setcfg() also has to wait until the DMA
engine is stopped so using a common function to handle the job is
better than duplicating the code.

makes controller to receive bad frames and i82557 will also receive
bad frames since fxp(4) have to receive VLAN oversized frames. If
fxp(4) encounter DMA overrun error, the received frame size would
be 0 so the actual frame size after checksum field extraction the
length would be negative(-2). Due to signed/unsigned comparison
used in driver, frame length check did not work for DMA overrun
frames. Correct this by casting it to int.
While I'm here explicitly check DMA overrun error and discard the
frame regardless of result of received frame length check.

I'll clear how it's supposed to work with Bernhard and then look
at enabling this in the correct situations.
But this -does- enable HT RTS protection (using the appropriate legacy
rates) if this bit of code is enabled.
by default.
Adventourous souls with an AR9220/AR9280 or later and who have a device
that sends PS-POLL frames may wish to try tinkering with this option and
get back to me.
Linux ath9k only enables this for AR9280 and later NICs; so
create a capability for it so it isn't enabled for earlier
NICs.
Enabling hardware PS-POLL support will come in a later commit
and will be disabled by default.
Even though they map to setting the error filter register,
ath9k also writes them untouched to AR_RX_FILTER.
The Force-BSSID match bit can stay high, as it maps to a
misc mode register setting rather than an RX filter bit.
The phyerr, radar and bssid-match bits aren't real bits, they map
to enabling bits in other registers. Move those out of the way of
valid RX filter bits.
Add a few new fields from ath9k - compba, ps-poll, mcast-bcast-all.
Changes since 7.8.0 (from the official changelog):
- Fixed sporadic interrupt generation for associated CQ when processing
a local invalidate work request
- Changes to core scheduling to avoid starving requests from the host
under heavy RDMA Read Request load (e.g. packets to the wire)
- Programmed the tp tx resource limiter in function of the traffic (only
affects iWarp)
- Increased the egress NIC gather list length from 36 to 46 entries

the channel width is ni->ni_chw, which is set to the negotiated channel
width. ni->ni_htflags is the capability, rather than the negotiated
value.
Teach both the TX path and the sample rate module about this.
This seems to work fine for STA but not HT/20 AP mode.
Further discussion with net80211 people will need to take place
to ensure that the right flags are set based on the negotiated
capabilities of the remote peer, rather than whatever the local
parameters are.
Sending short-gi frames in 20mhz may work on some chips but
it certainly isn't supported on anything currently supported
by the HAL; and sending HT40 frames in HT20 mode just plain
won't work.
settings, it seems that our defines are backwards and don't match what
is in the EEPROM documentation or internal driver.
The ath9k code used to have a bitfield here, rather than a uint8_t, and
there were #defines used to swap the order based on the endian of the
platform - this wasn't because of nybble or bit ordering of the
underlying host but because of what the compiler was doing.
This may be the reason for the backwards field numbers, as ath9k had
similar issues.
the AR9285 so I'll leave it off for that.
Ath9k sources indiciate that one of the ANI modes interferes with
RIFS detection, so match ath9k and disable that.
