This doesn't specifically fix the issue(s) i'm seeing in this 2GHz
environment (where setting/increasing spur immunity causes OFDM restart
errors to skyrocket through the roof; but leaving it at 0 would leave
the environment cleaner..)
Pointy-hat-to: me, for committing this broken code in the first place.
- Use a dedicated task to handle deferred transmits from the if_transmit
method instead of reusing the existing per-queue interrupt task.
Reusing the per-queue interrupt task could result in both an interrupt
thread and the taskqueue thread trying to handle received packets on a
single queue resulting in out-of-order packet processing and lock
contention.
- Don't define ixgbe_start() at all where if_transmit is used.

things like EAPOL frames make it out.
After a whole bunch of hacking/testing, I discovered that they weren't
being early-dropped by the stack (but I should look at ensuring that
later..) but were even making to the hardware transmit queue.
They were mostly even being received by the remote end. However, the
remote end was completely ignoring them.
This didn't happen under 150-170MBit TCP tests as I'm guessing the TX
queue stayed very busy and the STA didn't do any scanning. However, when
doing 100Mbit/s of TCP traffic, the STA would do background scanning -
which involves it coming in and out of powersave mode with the AP.
Now, this is a total and utter hack around the real problems, which are:
* I need to implement proper power save handling and integrate it into
the filtered frames support, so the driver/stack doesn't send frames
whilst the station is actually in sleep;
* .. but frames were actually making it to the STA (macbook pro) and
the AP did receive an ACK; but a tcpdump on the receiving side showed
the EAPOL frame never made it. So the stack was dropping it for
some reason;
* Importantly - the EAPOL frames are currently going into the non-QoS
TID, which maps to the BE queue and is susceptible to that queue being
busy doing other things, but;
* There's other traffic going on in the non-QoS TID from other contexts
when scanning is going on and it's possible there's some races causing
sequence number/IV issues, but;
* Importantly importantlly, I think the interaction with TID 16 multicast
traffic in power save mode is causing issues - since I -believe- the
sequence number space being used by the EAPOL frames on TID 16 overlaps
with the multicast frames that have sequence numbers allocated and
are then stuffed on the cabq. Since with EAPOL frames being in TID 16
and queued to the BE queue, it's going to be waiting to be serviced
with all of the aggregate traffic going on - and if the CABQ gets
emptied beforehand, those TID 16 multicast frames with sequence numbers
will go out beforehand.
Now, there's quite likely a bunch of "stuff happening slightly out of
sequence" going on due to the nature of the TX path (read: lots of
overlapping and concurrent ath_start() and ath_raw_xmit() calls going
on, sigh) but I thought I had caught them all and stuffed each TID TX
behind a lock (that lasted as long as it needed to in order to get
the frame onto the relevant destination queue - thus keeping things
in order.)
Unfortunately the last problem is the big one and I'm going to stare at
it some more. If it _is_
So this is a work around for now to ensure that EAPOL frames actually
make it out before any other stuff in the non-QoS TID and HOPEFULLY
before the CABQ gets active.
I'm now going to spend a little time in the TX path figuring out exactly
why the sender is rejecting things. There's two (well, three if you count
EAPOL contents invalid) possibilities:
* The sequence number is out of order (ie, something else like the multicast
traffic on CABQ) is going out first on TID 16;
* The CCMP IV is out of order (similar to above - but less likely, as the
TX key for multicast traffic is different to unicast traffic);
* EAPOL contents strangely invalid.

lock may be held.
Kim reported that the TID lock wasn't held when ath_tx_update_clrdmask()
was called. Well, the underlying hardware TXQ for that TID.
I'm betting it's the cabq stuff. ath_tx_xmit_normal() can be called
for both real and software cabq. For software cabq, the real destination
txq is different to the txq. So, the lock check will fail.

offline in response to a INQUIRY command that does not retreive vital
product data(I personally have observed the behaviour on an Adaptec 2405
and a 5805). Force the peripheral qualifier to "connected" so that upper
layers correctly recognize that a disk is present.
This bug was uncovered by r216236. Prior to that fix, aac(4) was
accidentally clearing the peripheral qualifier for all inquiry commands.
This fixes an issue where passthrough devices were not created for
disks behind aac(4) controllers suffering from the bug. I have
verified that if a disk is not present that we still properly detect
that and not create the passthrough device.

it's disabled.
The previous commit to enable CLRDMASK setting didn't do it at all
correctly for non-aggregate sessions - so the CLRDMASK bit would be
cleared and never re-set.
* move ath_tx_update_clrdmask() to be called by functions that setup
descriptors and queue frames to the hardware, rather than scattered
everywhere.
* Force CLRDMASK to be set on all non-aggregate session frames being
transmitted.
* Use ath_tx_normal_comp() now on non-aggregate sessoin frames
that are queued via ath_tx_xmit_normal(). That way the TID hwq is
updated and they can trigger (eventual) filter frame queue resets
and software retransmits.
There's still a bit more work to do in this area to reverse the silly
short-sightedness on my part, however it's likely going to be better
to fix this now than just reverting the patch.
Thanks to people on the freebsd-wireless@ mailing list for promptly

The aggregate path was definitely accessing 'ts' before it was actually
being assigned.
This had the side effect of over-filtering frames, since occasionally that
bit would be '1'.
Whilst here, do the same thing in the non-aggregate completion function -
as calling the filter function may also invalidate bf.
