@Reorganize ath layout as requested by sam@@ and suggested by dyoung@@ in
http://mail-index.netbsd.org/tech-net/2006/03/15/0000.html.

The new layout almost precisely matches FreeBSD, and should make
future imports much easier.

At the same time, import the current 0.9.16.16 HAL from FreeBSD.  According
to sam@@, this is the proper version we should be using.

WARNING: THIS IS A BETA DISTRIBUTION.  THIS SOFTWARE HAS KNOWN PROBLEMS AND
WARNING: LIMITATIONS THAT WILL BE CORRECTED BEFORE A PRODUCTION RELEASE.
WARNING: USE AT YOUR OWN RISK!


Atheros Hardware Access Layer (HAL)
===================================

* Copyright (c) 2002-2005 Sam Leffler.
* Copyright (c) 2002-2005 Atheros Communications, Inc.
* All rights reserved.

Read the file COPYRIGHT for the complete copyright.

This code manages much of the chip-specific operation of the Atheros driver.
The HAL is provided in a binary-only form in order to comply with FCC
regulations.  In particular, a radio transmitter can only be operated at
power levels and on frequency channels for which it is approved.  The FCC
requires that a software-defined radio cannot be configured by a user
to operate outside the approved power levels and frequency channels.
This makes it difficult to open-source code that enforces limits on
the power levels, frequency channels and other parameters of the radio
transmitter.  See

http://ftp.fcc.gov/Bureaus/Engineering_Technology/Orders/2001/fcc01264.pdf

for the specific FCC regulation.  Because the module is provided in a
binary-only form it is marked "Proprietary"; this means when you load
it you will see messages that your system is now "tainted".

If you wish to use this driver on a platform for which an ath_hal
module is not already provided please contact the author.  Note that
this is only necessary for new _architectures_; the HAL is not tied to
any specific version of your operating system.


Atheros Hardware
================
There are currently 3 generations of Atheros 802.11 wireless devices:

5210	supports 11a only
5211	supports both 11a and 11b
5212	supports 11a, 11b, and 11g

These parts have been incorporated in a variety of retail products
including cardbus cards from DLink, Linksys, Netgear, and Proxim; and
mini-pci cards from some of these same vendors.  In addition many
laptop vendors use Atheros mini-pci cards for their builtin wireless
support.  An (incomplete) list of products that use Atheros parts is:

Netgear WAG511		D-Link DWL-AG520	Linksys WPC55AG
Netgear WAB501		D-Link DWL-AG650	Linksys WMP55AG
			D-Link DWL-AB650	Linksys WPC51AB

In general, if a device is identified as ``11a only'' it is almost
certain to contain an Atheros 5210 part in it.  All retail a+b
products use the 5211.  The latest generation of universal a+b+g
combo products use the 5212.  When in doubt check the PCI vendor
id with a tool like lspci, the Atheros vendor id is 0x168c; e.g.

   00:13.0 Ethernet controller: Unknown device 168c:0012 (rev 01)

@Miscellaneous ath(4) and net80211 updates and bug-fixes coming from
sam@@ and various open source repositories:

ath(4):

        Ignore "phantom" beacon misses: should stabilize connections
        to access points (no more ceaseless link-UP/DOWN indications).
        Also, re-synchronize beacon timer using the TSF in the
        first beacon received after joining a BSS---this should
        also help suppress spurious beacon misses.  I am hopeful
        that this will help ath(4) lossage reported by perry@@ and
        smb@@.

        Add new configuration through sysctl.

        Use a shorter calibration interval until IQ calibration
        finishes.

        Report antenna noise through radiotap.

        Rudiments of Radar Detection / Dynamic Frequency Selection.

        Update to HAL version 0.9.16.13.

        Update open sources for changes to the HAL API.

        Add HALs for additional architectures: add big-endian ELF
        HALs for sparc64 and for PowerPC.  Also add a Alpha HAL.
        These new HALs are untested under NetBSD.

ath(4) + net80211:

        Make the multicast transmit rate configurable by ioctl.

        Miscellaneous bug fixes.

5210	supports 11a only
5211	supports both 11a and 11b
5212	supports 11a, 11b, and 11g

These parts have been incorporated in a variety of retail products
including cardbus cards from DLink, Linksys, Netgear, and Proxim; and
mini-pci cards from some of these same vendors.  In addition many
laptop vendors use Atheros mini-pci cards for their builtin wireless
support.  An (incomplete) list of products that use Atheros parts is:

Netgear WAG511		D-Link DWL-AG520	Linksys WPC55AG
Netgear WAB501		D-Link DWL-AG650	Linksys WMP55AG
			D-Link DWL-AB650	Linksys WPC51AB

In general, if a device is identified as ``11a only'' it is almost
certain to contain an Atheros 5210 part in it.  All retail a+b
products use the 5211.  The latest generation of universal a+b+g
combo products use the 5212.  When in doubt check the PCI vendor
id with a tool like lspci, the Atheros vendor id is 0x168c; e.g.

   00:13.0 Ethernet controller: Unknown device 168c:0012 (rev 01)
