beacon-sender's ieee80211_node, if ni->ni_esslen == 0. This fixes
WEP for Matthew. I think that it also will save us from IBSS
splits.
Thanks again, Matthew Gream.
peer, we have to copy the "master" rate table to the faked-up node's
rate table, or else ath0 will complain, "ath0: bogus xmit rate
0x0". Thank you Konstantin KABASSANOV for reporting this problem.

net.link.ieee80211. The convention is that nodes directly under
net are protocol families (PF_*).
Also, simplify the sysctl setup for net80211 and rssadapt, following
another suggestion by Andrew.
and off.
Add a sysctl, net.ieee80211.maxinact, for adjusting the node time-out
interval. After net.ieee80211.maxinact seconds of inactivity, an
AP will purge a peer/client-record. Now the client has to reassociate.
independently from net80211 debug messages. Create a new sysctl,
net.ieee80211.rssadapt.debug, for turning the debug messages on
and off.
Create a new sysctl, net.ieee80211.rssadapt.expavgctl, to control
the rate of decay for the exponential averages used by rssadapt(9).
Fix authentication where I had botched it with the FreeBSD import.
(In FreeBSD, net80211 is strangely subroutine-averse, so where we
have ieee80211_auth_open and ieee80211_auth_shared, they incorporate
all of ieee80211_auth_open into ieee80211_recv_mgmt. I had not
realized that was why the 20 lines of new code.)
I have pulled that code into the function ieee80211_rssadapt_choose
so that I can re-use it in ath(4), atw(4), and in other drivers.
In rssadapt(9), I have also created a struct ieee80211_rssadapt_expavgctl
that contains parameters for rate adaptation. When IEEE80211_RSSADAPT_DEBUG
is enabled, I will using sysctl to expose an ieee80211_rssadapt_expavgctl
for each wireless device.
Also in rssadapt(9), I have introduced an interpolate() macro which
makes the exponential-averaging code more compact.
denote a signed dBm Rx power, so rename them to _DBM_ and change
the signedness. Add new _DB_ flags for unsigned Rx power measured
from an arbitrary reference.
Try to synchronize net80211/ieee80211_radiotap.h with my tcpdump
sources (which public tcpdump has not seen, yet) and with FreeBSD.
