the non-aggregate path.
I "cheated" by using some TX setup code in our HAL that isn't present
in the atheros HAL (or Linux ath9k.)
The old path for forming aggregates was:
* setup the rate control in the first descriptor;
* call chaintxdesc() on all the frames;
* call setupfirsttxdesc() on the first descrpitor in the first
frame;
* call setuplasttxdesc() on the last descriptor in the last frame.
The new path for forming aggregates looks like the non-aggregate path:
* call setuptxdesc() on the first descriptor in the first frame;
* setup the rate control in the first descriptor;
* call filltxdesc() on each descriptor in the frame;
* if it's an aggregate - call set11n_aggr_{first, middle, last} as
appropriate (see the code for a description of what is "appropriate".)
Now, this is done primarily for the AR9300 HAL - it doesn't implement
the first set of aggregate functions. It just has the older methods
and the "first/middle/last" aggregate methods. So, let's convert the
code to use these.
Note: the AR5416 HAL in FreeBSD had that code (from me, a while ago)
and a previous commit brought it up to behave the same as the AR9300
HAL routines.
There's some further tidyups to be done - specifically, avoid doing
multiple calls to the 11n descriptor functions. I shouldn't call
clr11n_aggr(), then set11n_aggr_middle(), then also set11n_aggr_first().
On (at least MIPS) the TX descriptors are in non-cachable memory and
this will cause multiple slow writes.
I'll debug/tidy that up in a future commit.
Tested:
* AR9280, STA
* AR9280/AR9160, AP
* AR9380, STA (using a local, closed source HAL, sorry!)

This is the top level of the FreeBSD source directory. This file was last revised on: $FreeBSD$ For copyright information, please see the file COPYRIGHT in this directory (additional copyright information also exists for some sources in this tree - please see the specific source directories for more information). The Makefile in this directory supports a number of targets for building components (or all) of the FreeBSD source tree, the most commonly used one being ``world'', which rebuilds and installs everything in the FreeBSD system from the source tree except the kernel, the kernel-modules and the contents of /etc. The ``world'' target should only be used in cases where the source tree has not changed from the currently running version. See: http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/makeworld.html for more information, including setting make(1) variables. The ``buildkernel'' and ``installkernel'' targets build and install the kernel and the modules (see below). Please see the top of the Makefile in this directory for more information on the standard build targets and compile-time flags. Building a kernel is a somewhat more involved process, documentation for which can be found at: http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/kernelconfig.html And in the config(8) man page. Note: If you want to build and install the kernel with the ``buildkernel'' and ``installkernel'' targets, you might need to build world before. More information is available in the handbook. The sample kernel configuration files reside in the sys/<arch>/conf sub-directory (assuming that you've installed the kernel sources), the file named GENERIC being the one used to build your initial installation kernel. The file NOTES contains entries and documentation for all possible devices, not just those commonly used. It is the successor of the ancient LINT file, but in contrast to LINT, it is not buildable as a kernel but a pure reference and documentation file.
