Adrian Chadd fee842aa2a Overhaul the iwn(4) scan infrastructure to be slightly more "correct"
for these chipsets.

* Correctly set the active/passive flag in the scan request - this is
  NOT a "is the channel active|passive"; it's to do with whether we
  have an SSID to actively scan for or not.  The firmware takes care
  of the active/passive setup of the channel.

* Calculate the active/passive dwell time based on the beacon interval
  and the channel mode, rather than using a hard coded value.

* For now, hardcode the scan service_time.  It's defined as:

  31:22 - number of beacon intervals to come back onto the home channel
          for;
  0:21  - time (microseconds) to come back onto the home channel for.

  When doing an active scan when the NIC is active (whether we're associated
  or not - it only matters if we've setup the NIC to a destination or not)
  this determines how much time to stay on the home channel for when
  scanning.  We can tune this based on the amount of active traffic.

  For now it's 4 beacon intervals and 100 microseconds.

* Fix the "good crc threshold" setting.  It differs based on the NIC
  firmware.  Some older firmware required a workaround; the later
  firmware instead treats the field as a flag.

* Enforce that we are not sending a scan command if one is already
  pending.  Any time this is done is a bug and it absolutely needs
  to be fixed - so be very loud.

* Add the SCAN flag to a few debug messages that are scan related but
  only occuring under STATE.

Now, this does get noisy when you're scanning in an actively busy 2GHz
network as the firmware (for reason I don't quite yet understand) seems
hell bent on staying on some passive channels longer than it should.
However, it should eventually recover and complete the scan.

This is a work in progress; please let me know if things get stuck or
if things improve!

Tested:

* intel centrino 2200
* intel centrino 2230
* intel 6200
* intel 5100
* intel 4965 (gets upset, but that's a known issue)

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.
