For some NICs (notably the rtl8192cu that I'm working on) the
firmware rate adaptation requires beacon processing to be enabled.
Instead of making assumptions in the if_rtwn beacon routines (and
honestly all of that should be in the HAL too), create a HAL method
for enabling/disabling beacon processing specifically in STA mode.
Since this isn't necessarily required for all NICs (notably the RTL8188E
NICs, where some will do firmware rate control and some will require
driver rate control), only enable it for the RTL8192CU and RT8192EU.
The RTL8188E and RTL8812/RTL8821 just have no-op routines for now.

The rate control message was doing 11g+11n without 11b rates, but
the TX descriptor setup supports also falling back on 11b rates
when doing multi-rate retry / per-descriptor rate control.
So, line them up. They're not exactly the same as the TX path
supports pure-N and pure-G modes which the rate control configuration
does not, but there'll need to be a lot more work on supporting
those operating modes anyway (around things like self-generated
frame rate control/masks, beacon config, RTS/CTS selection, etc.)

I noticed during testing that the MAC was generating MCS7 ACKs and
MCS7 block-ACK frames in response to MCS frames from its peer.
This is very suboptimal - it means that unless you're very close
to your peer (in this case a 2GHz AP), you'll end up failing a lot
of ACKs.
Linux faced the opposite problem in rtl8xxxu - the rate set being
programmed in here included a lot MORE rates, including MCS 0->7
and OFDM 6M->54M. This meant that they were INTENTIONALLY telling
the hardware to transmit at higher rates, and their fix was to
mask out the higher rates so self-generated frames don't try the
high rates at all.
Now, I am not sure why I'm not seeing any OFDM or HT basic rates.
We don't mark any OFDM / HT rates as basic in net80211 (in
ieee80211_phy.c) so I'm going to need to go and do a review of the
standard to see what's up. Additionally, the HT rate set that we
populate isn't tagging any of the HT rates as IEEE80211_RATE_BASIC,
so the code I added for now is a no-op.
So:
* Extend rtwn_get_rates() and its consumers to populate the HT rateset
with basic rates if they're provided
* Add a default 2GHz / 5GHz mask, inspired by linux, applied over the
basic rates provided.
* Make sure there's at least an OFDM rate (for 2G/5G) rate available if
the peer node is HT, which avoids the MAC defaulting to MCS7 when
generating ACK/block-ACK.
* Add register definitions for INIDATA/INIRTS, which set the default
data rate when the driver doesn't specify the initial data / RTS/CTS
rates in the TX descriptor.
* Leave a comment about why I've modified the mask from Linux.

This is an attempt to reverse engineer what the actual transmit power
calculations are doing and apply net80211 limits on them. It doesn't
look as simple as just applying the check at the end - there are plenty
of places where offsets are calculated between different PHY modes and
1 / 2 antenna MCS transmit rates.
There are also some places where the offset being added is negative,
so handle the potential underflow so when things hit 0, they don't
just wrap and cause the maximum transmit power into the registers.
This is being done to aide in power/performance debugging - if there
are issues with the transmit power being wrongly calculated and are too
high, the output waveform will be distorted and it will effect performance.
Being able to drop the transmit power by a few dB here and there can
quickly identify if this is happening (because suddenly higher MCS
rates / OFDM rates suddenly work better!)
I've tested each NIC through the transmit power values from 0 dBm
to 30dBm via ifconfig (and they're all capped far before that,
normally around 20-25dBm) and they're not underflowing.

The termios layer wants some level of guarantee that we've actually
submitted param changes to the hardware when our functions return, so we
need to do a little more waiting to avoid violating those guarantees.
This is especially important as some hardware has some minimum timing
specifications around this stuff, and without being less asynchronous
the software dealing with these devices can't reasonably operate the
hardware without more excessive delays than they should need.
More specifically, we make sure that:
- The command to start transfers is finished before we toggle DTR/RTS
- The status_change command finishes before we return, which may change
some fields in the softc that we need for a subsequent call into
usb_serial
- cfg_param finishes before we re-enable transfers, and we ensure that
RTS is appropriately toggled before we return to userland
This has been observed to fix some flakiness in connecting to some
ESP32 devices.

of delaying them in restart queue of the driver.
- When target finally aborts the command (which it should have
done before the notify ack) we should not send another abort to
the firmware. Since we already sent the abort and deleted ATIO
private data above, just return successful completion here, doing
nothing. Since the tag can be reused by that time, we can not

net80211 node ni_chw currently encodes the channel width as Mhz number.
LinuxKPI 802.11 uses enum ieee80211_sta_rx_bw for the same.
Rather than keeping the "20" and "40" throughout the code (eventually
expanded to 80/160/320) switch them over to use the enum throughout
and add a print mask for debug output. While designed as bitmask it
is not supposed to be used as such; the bitmask is only used to be
able to use %b with a print mask.
Once we get to 320Mhz channel widths we would otherwise also need to
extend the uint8_t in struct ieee80211_node; making
enum ieee80211_sta_rx_bw __packed allows us for three more channel
widths without breaking the KBI (if we were not to use %b with a
print_mask but use a lookup function for the string we could extend
it for a long time).
