| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | connectivity interact with the net80211 stack. Historical background: originally wireless devices created an interface, just like Ethernet devices do. Name of an interface matched the name of the driver that created. Later, wlan(4) layer was introduced, and the wlanX interfaces become the actual interface, leaving original ones as "a parent interface" of wlanX. Kernelwise, the KPI between net80211 layer and a driver became a mix of methods that pass a pointer to struct ifnet as identifier and methods that pass pointer to struct ieee80211com. From user point of view, the parent interface just hangs on in the ifconfig list, and user can't do anything useful with it. Now, the struct ifnet goes away. The struct ieee80211com is the only KPI between a device driver and net80211. Details: - The struct ieee80211com is embedded into drivers softc. - Packets are sent via new ic_transmit method, which is very much like the previous if_transmit. - Bringing parent up/down is done via new ic_parent method, which notifies driver about any changes: number of wlan(4) interfaces, number of them in promisc or allmulti state. - Device specific ioctls (if any) are received on new ic_ioctl method. - Packets/errors accounting are done by the stack. In certain cases, when driver experiences errors and can not attribute them to any specific interface, driver updates ic_oerrors or ic_ierrors counters. Details on interface configuration with new world order: - A sequence of commands needed to bring up wireless DOESN"T change. - /etc/rc.conf parameters DON'T change. - List of devices that can be used to create wlan(4) interfaces is now provided by net.wlan.devices sysctl. Most drivers in this change were converted by me, except of wpi(4), that was done by Andriy Voskoboinyk. Big thanks to Kevin Lo for testing changes to at least 8 drivers.

Details here: https://wiki.freebsd.org/projects/ifnet/net80211 Still, drivers: ndis, wtap, mwl, ipw, bwn, wi, upgt, uath were not tested. Changes to mwl, ipw, bwn, wi, upgt are trivial and chances of problems are low. The wtap wasn't compilable even before this change. But the ndis driver is complex, and it is likely to be broken with this commit. Help with testing and debugging it is appreciated. Differential Revision: D2655, D2740 Sponsored by: Nginx, Inc.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | sleepable context for net80211 driver callbacks. This removes the need for USB and firmware based drivers to roll their own code to defer the chip programming for state changes, scan requests, channel changes and mcast/promisc updates. When a driver callback completes the hardware state is now guaranteed to have been updated and is in sync with net80211 layer. This nukes around 1300 lines of code from the wireless device drivers making them more readable and less race prone. The net80211 layer has been updated as follows - all state/channel changes are serialised on the taskqueue. - ieee80211_new_state() always queues and can now be called from any context - scanning runs from a single taskq function and executes to completion. driver callbacks are synchronous so the channel, phy mode and rx filters are guaranteed to be set in hardware before probe request frames are transmitted.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | a version that i posted earlier on the -current mailing list, and subsequent feedback received. The core of the change is just in sys/firmware.h and kern/subr_firmware.c, while other files are just adaptation of the clients to the ABI change (const-ification of some parameters and hiding of internal info, so this is fully compatible at the binary level). In detail: - reduce the amount of information exported to clients in struct firmware, and constify the pointer; - internally, document and simplify the implementation of the various functions, and make sure error conditions are dealt with properly. The diffs are large, but the code is really straightforward now (i hope). Note also that there is a subtle issue with the implementation of firmware_register(): currently, as in the previous version, we just store a reference to the 'imagename' argument, but we should rather copy it because there is no guarantee that this is a static string. I realised this while testing this code, but i prefer to fix it in a later commit -- there is no regression with respect to the past. Note, too, that the version in RELENG_6 has various bugs including missing locks around the module release calls, mishandling of modules loaded by /boot/loader, and so on, so an MFC is absolutely necessary there. I was just postponing it until this cleanup to avoid doing things twice. MFC after: 1 week
