Convert malloc/free back to #define's, as part of OS portability work.

DragonflyBSD uses the FreeBSD wireless stack and drivers. Their malloc()
API is named differently, so they don't have userland/kernel symbol
clashes like we do (think libuinet.)

So, to make it easier for them and to port to other BSDs/other operating
systems, start hiding the malloc specific bits behind defines in
ieee80211_freebsd.h.

DragonflyBSD can now put these portability defines in their local
ieee80211_dragonflybsd.h.

This should be a great big no-op for everyone running wifi.

TODO:

* kill M_WAITOK - some platforms just don't want you to use it
* .. and/or handle it returning NULL rather than waiting forever.
* MALLOC_DEFINE() ?
* Migrate the well-known malloc names (eg M_TEMP) to net80211

Begin plumbing ieee80211_rx_stats through the receive path.

Smart NICs with firmware (eg wpi, iwn, the new atheros parts, the intel 7260
series, etc) support doing a lot of things in firmware. This includes but
isn't limited to things like scanning, sending probe requests and receiving
probe responses. However, net80211 doesn't know about any of this - it still
drives the whole scan/probe infrastructure itself.

In order to move towards suppoting smart NICs, the receive path needs to
know about the channel/details for each received packet. In at least
the iwn and 7260 firmware (and I believe wpi, but I haven't tried it yet)
it will do the scanning, power-save and off-channel buffering for you -
all you need to do is handle receiving beacons and probe responses on
channels that aren't what you're currently on. However the whole receive
path is peppered with ic->ic_curchan and manual scan/powersave handling.
The beacon parsing code also checks ic->ic_curchan to determine if the
received beacon is on the correct channel or not.[1]

So:

* add freq/ieee values to ieee80211_rx_stats;
* change ieee80211_parse_beacon() to accept the 'current' channel
as an argument;
* modify the iv_input() and iv_recv_mgmt() methods to include the rx_stats;
* add a new method - ieee80211_lookup_channel_rxstats() - that looks up
a channel based on the contents of ieee80211_rx_stats;
* if it exists, use it in the mgmt path to switch the current channel
(which still defaults to ic->ic_curchan) over to something determined
by rx_stats.

This is enough to kick-start scan offload support in the Intel 7260
driver that Rui/I are working on. It also is a good start for scan
offload support for a handful of existing NICs (wpi, iwn, some USB
parts) and it'll very likely dramatically improve stability/performance
there. It's not the whole thing - notably, we don't need to do powersave,
we should not scan all channels, and we should leave probe request sending
to the firmware and not do it ourselves. But, this allows for continued
development on the above features whilst actually having a somewhat
working NIC.

TODO:

* Finish tidying up how the net80211 input path works.
Right now ieee80211_input / ieee80211_input_all act as the top-level
that everything feeds into; it should change so the MIMO input routines
are those and the legacy routines are phased out.

* The band selection should be done by the driver, not by the net80211
layer.

* ieee80211_lookup_channel_rxstats() only determines 11b or 11g channels
for now - this is enough for scanning, but not 100% true in all cases.
If we ever need to handle off-channel scan support for things like
static-40MHz or static-80MHz, or turbo-G, or half/quarter rates,
then we should extend this.

[1] This is a side effect of frequency-hopping and CCK modes - you
can receive beacons when you think you're on a different channel.
In particular, CCK (which is used by the low 11b rates, eg beacons!)
is decodable from adjacent channels - just at a low SNR.
FH is a side effect of having the hardware/firmware do the frequency
hopping - it may pick up beacons transmitted from other FH networks
that are in a different phase of hopping frequencies.

Do not check sequence number for QoS Null frames; set it for generated QoS Null

"The Sequence Control field for QoS (+)Null frames is ignored by the receiver

At this moment, any <mode>_input() function interprets them as regular QoS data
frames with TID = 0. As a result, stations, that use another TX sequence for
QoS Null frames (e.g. wpi(4), where (QoS) Null frames are generated by the
firmware), may experience significant packet loss with any other NIC in hostap
mode.

Prepare for supporting driver-overridden curchan when submitting scan
results.

Right now the scan infrastructure assumes the channel is under net80211
control, and that when receiving beacon frames for scanning, the
current channel is indeed what ic_curchan is set to.

But firmware NICs with firmware scan support need more than this -
they can do background scans whilst hiding the off-channel behaviour
from net80211. Ie, net80211 still thinks everything is associated
and on the main channel, but it's getting scan results from all the
background traffic.

However sta_add() pays attention to ic_curchan and discards scan
results that aren't on the right channel. CCK beacon frames can be
decoded from adjacent channels so the receive path and sta_add
discard these as appropriate. This is fine for software scanning
like for ath(4), but not for firmware NICs. So with those, the
whole concept of background firmware scanning won't work without
major hacks (eg, overriding ic_curchan before calling the beacon
input / scan add.)

As part of my scan overhaul, modify sta_add() and the scan_add()
APIs to take an explicit current channel. The normal RX path
will set it to ic_curchan so it's a no-op. However, drivers may
decide to (eventually!) override the scan method to set the
"right" current channel based on what the firmware reports the
scan state is.

So for example, iwn, rsu and other NICs will eventually do this:

* driver issues scan start firmware command;
* firmware sends a "scan start on channel X" notify;
* firmware sends a bunch of beacon RX's as part of
the scan results;
* .. and the driver will replace scan_add() curchan with channel X,
so scan results are correct.
* firmware sends a "scan start on channel Y" notify;
* firmware sends more beacons...
* .. the driver replaces scan_add() curchan with channel Y.

Note:

* Eventually, net80211 should eventually grow the idea of a per-packet
current channel. It's possible in various modes (eg WAVE, P2P, etc)
that individual frames can come in from different channels and that
is under firmware control rather than driver/net80211 control, so
we should support that.

Convert net80211 over to using if_transmit for the dispatch from the
upper layer(s).

This eliminates the if_snd queue from net80211. Yay!

This unfortunately has a few side effects:

* It breaks ALTQ to net80211 for now - sorry everyone, but fixing
parallelism and eliminating the if_snd queue is more important
than supporting this broken traffic scheduling model. :-)

* There's no VAP and IC flush methods just yet - I think I'll add
some NULL methods for now just as placeholders.

* It reduces throughput a little because now net80211 will drop packets
rather than buffer them if the driver doesn't do its own buffering.
This will be addressed in the future as I implement per-node software
queues.

Tested:

* ath(4) and iwn(4) in STA operation

Bring over my initial work from the net80211 TX locking branch.

This patchset implements a new TX lock, covering both the per-VAP (and
thus per-node) TX locking and the serialisation through to the underlying
physical device.

This implements the hard requirement that frames to the underlying physical
device are scheduled to the underlying device in the same order that they
are processed at the VAP layer. This includes adding extra encapsulation
state (such as sequence numbers and CCMP IV numbers.) Any order mismatch
here will result in dropped packets at the receiver.

There are multiple transmit contexts from the upper protocol layers as well
as the "raw" interface via the management and BPF transmit paths.
All of these need to be correctly serialised or bad behaviour will result
under load.

The specifics:

* add a new TX IC lock - it will eventually just be used for serialisation
to the underlying physical device but for now it's used for both the
VAP encapsulation/serialisation and the physical device dispatch.

This lock is specifically non-recursive.

* Methodize the parent transmit, vap transmit and ic_raw_xmit function
pointers; use lock assertions in the parent/vap transmit routines.

* Add a lock assertion in ieee80211_encap() - the TX lock must be held
here to guarantee sensible behaviour.

* Refactor out the packet sending code from ieee80211_start() - now
ieee80211_start() is just a loop over the ifnet queue and it dispatches
each VAP packet send through ieee80211_start_pkt().

Yes, I will likely rename ieee80211_start_pkt() to something that
better reflects its status as a VAP packet transmit path. More on
that later.

* Add locking around the management and BAR TX sending - to ensure that
encapsulation and TX are done hand-in-hand.

* Add locking in the mesh code - again, to ensure that encapsulation
and mesh transmit are done hand-in-hand.

* Add locking around the power save queue and ageq handling, when
dispatching to the parent interface.

* Add locking around the WDS handoff.

* Add a note in the mesh dispatch code that the TX path needs to be
re-thought-out - right now it's doing a direct parent device transmit
rather than going via the vap layer. It may "work", but it's likely
incorrect (as it bypasses any possible per-node power save and
aggregation handling.)

Why not a per-VAP or per-node lock?

Because in order to ensure per-VAP ordering, we'd have to hold the
VAP lock across parent->if_transmit(). There are a few problems
with this:

* There's some state being setup during each driver transmit - specifically,
the encryption encap / CCMP IV setup. That should eventually be dragged
back into the encapsulation phase but for now it lives in the driver TX path.
This should be locked.

* Two drivers (ath, iwn) re-use the node->ni_txseqs array in order to
allocate sequence numbers when doing transmit aggregation. This should
also be locked.

* Drivers may have multiple frames queued already - so when one calls
if_transmit(), it may end up dispatching multiple frames for different
VAPs/nodes, each needing a different lock when handling that particular
end destination.

So to be "correct" locking-wise, we'd end up needing to grab a VAP or
node lock inside the driver TX path when setting up crypto / AMPDU sequence
numbers, and we may already _have_ a TX lock held - mostly for the same
destination vap/node, but sometimes it'll be for others. That could lead
to LORs and thus deadlocks.

So for now, I'm sticking with an IC TX lock. It has the advantage of
papering over the above and it also has the added advantage that I can
assert that it's being held when doing a parent device transmit.
I'll look at splitting the locks out a bit more later on.

General outstanding net80211 TX path issues / TODO:

* Look into separating out the VAP serialisation and the IC handoff.
It's going to be tricky as parent->if_transmit() doesn't give me the
opportunity to split queuing from driver dispatch. See above.

* Work with monthadar to fix up the mesh transmit path so it doesn't go via
the parent interface when retransmitting frames.

* Push the encryption handling back into the driver, if it's at all
architectually sane to do so. I know it's possible - it's what mac80211
in Linux does.

* Make ieee80211_raw_xmit() queue a frame into VAP or parent queue rather
than doing a short-cut direct into the driver. There are QoS issues
here - you do want your management frames to be encapsulated and pushed
onto the stack sooner than the (large, bursty) amount of data frames
that are queued. But there has to be a saner way to do this.

* Fragments are still broken - drivers need to be upgraded to an if_transmit()
implementation and then fragmentation handling needs to be properly fixed.

Tested:

* STA - AR5416, AR9280, Intel 5300 abgn wifi
* Hostap - AR5416, AR9160, AR9280
* Mesh - some testing by monthadar@, more to come.

Handle ps-poll data frame if_transmit() failure.

If the data frame transmission failures, it may have a node reference
that needs cleaning up.

If the frame is marked as M_ENCAP then it should treat recvif as a node
reference and clear it.

Now - since the mbuf has been freed by calling if_transmit() (even on
failure), the mbuf has to be treated as invalid. Hence why the ifp is
used.

Remove a use of if_start() - instead, use if_transmit() to dispatch the
frame.

Mechanically substitute flags from historic mbuf allocator with
malloc(9) flags within sys.

Migrate the power-save functions to be overridable VAP methods.

This turns ieee80211_node_pwrsave(), ieee80211_sta_pwrsave() and
ieee80211_recv_pspoll() into methods.

The intent is to let drivers override these and tie into the power save
management pathway.

For ath(4), this is the beginning of forcing a node software queue to
stop and start as needed, as well as supporting "leaking" single frames
from the software queue to the hardware.

Right now, ieee80211_recv_pspoll() will attempt to transmit a single frame
to the hardware (whether it be a data frame on the power-save queue or
a NULL data frame) but the driver may have hardware/software queued frames
queued up. This initial work is an attempt at providing the hooks required
to implement correct behaviour.

Allowing ieee80211_node_pwrsave() to be overridden allows the ath(4)
driver to pause and unpause the entire software queue for a given node.
It doesn't make sense to transmit anything whilst the node is asleep.

Please note that there are other corner cases to correctly handle -
specifically, setting the MORE data bit correctly on frames to a station,
as well as keeping the TIM updated. Those particular issues can be
addressed later.

Remove now redundant mac argument.

Modify the ACL code slightly to support a few nifty things:

* Call it before sending probe responses, so the ACL code has the
chance to reject sending them.

* Pass the whole frame to the ACL code now, rather than just the

contents to determine what the response should be.

This is part of some uncommitted work to support band steering.

Fix some corner cases in the net80211 sequence number retransmission
handling.

The current sequence number code does a few things incorrectly:

* It didn't try eliminating duplications from HT nodes. I guess it's assumed
that out of order / retransmission handling would be handled by the AMPDU RX
routines. If a HT node isn't doing AMPDU RX, then retransmissions need to
be eliminated. Since most of my debugging is based on this (as AMPDU TX
software packet aggregation isn't yet handled), handle this corner case.

* When a sequence number of 4095 was received, any subsequent sequence number
is going to be (by definition) less than 4095. So if the following sequence
number (0) doesn't initially occur and the retransmit is received, it's
incorrectly eliminated by the IEEE80211_FC1_RETRY && SEQ_LEQ() check.
Try to handle this better.

This almost completely eliminates out of order TCP statistics showing up during
iperf testing for the 11a, 11g and non-aggregate 11n AMPDU RX case. The only
other packet loss conditions leading to this are due to baseband resets or
heavy interference.

traffic "to the stack" in ap mode as a side effect.

convert calls to IFQ_HANDOFF to if_transmit

Fix checks for fast frames negotiation. ni_ath_flags holds the
capabilities reported by the ap. These need to be cross-checked
against the local configuration in the vap. Previously we were
only checking the ap capabilities which meant that if an ap reported
it was ff-capable but we were not setup to use them we'd try to do
ff aggregation and drop the frame.

There are a number of problems to be fixed here but applying this
fix immediately as the problem causes all traffic to stop (and has
not workaround).

New ap-side power save implementation; the main change is to allow drivers
to queue frames previously encapsulated on a separate high priority list
that is dispatched before the unencapsulated frames (to preserve order).

Revert the removal of the MALLOC and FREE macros from the net80211 code.

Requested by: sam

Retire the MALLOC and FREE macros. They are an abomination unto style(9).

must do a deep copy of mcast packets as they can be modified after dispatch

Revamp ht ie handling:
o change ieee80211_parse_htcap and ieee80211_parse_htinfo to save only
internal state obtained from the ie's; no dynamic state such as
ni_chw is altered
o add ieee80211_ht_updateparams to parse ht cap+info ie's and update
dynamic node state
o change ieee80211_ht_node_init to not take an htcap ie that is parsed;
instead have the caller make a separate call as one caller wants to
parse the ie while another wants to parse both cap+info ie's and
update state so can better do this with ieee80211_ht_updateparams

These changes fix sta mode state handling where the node's channel
width was shifted to ht20/ht40 prematurely.

Cleanup AMPDU handling:

For receive:
o explicitly tag rx frames w/ M_AMPDU instead of passing frames through
the reorder processing according to the node having HT and the frame
being QoS data
o relax ieee80211_ampdu_reorder asserts to allow any frame to be passed
in, unsuitable frames are returned to the caller for normal processing;
this permits drivers that cannot inspect the PLCP to mark all data
frames as potential ampdu candidates with only a small penalty
o add M_AMPDU_MPDU to identify frames resubmitted from the reorder q

For transmit:
o tag aggregation candidates with M_AMPDU_MPDU
o fix the QoS ack policy set in ampdu subframes; we only support immediate
BA streams which should be marked for "normal ack" to get implicit block
ack behaviour; interestingly certain vendor parts BA'd frames with the
11e BA ack policy set
o do not assign a sequence # to aggregation candidates; this must be done
when frames are submitted for transmit (NB: this can/will be handled
better when aggregation is pulled up to net80211)

don't deauth a station because it sends a ps-poll w/ a bogus aid in it;
turns out some devices do this and since we otherwise validate the station
is associated and don't use the aid for anything being lenient here allows
them to function

Multi-bss (aka vap) support for 802.11 devices.

Note this includes changes to all drivers and moves some device firmware
loading to use firmware(9) and a separate module (e.g. ral). Also there
no longer are separate wlan_scan* modules; this functionality is now
bundled into the wlan module.
