NDIS_80211_NET_INFRA_BSS: I accidentally reversed them during
transcription from the Microsoft headers. Note that the
driver will default to BSS mode, and you need to specify
'mediaopt adhoc' to get it into IBSS mode.
snprintf (buf, size, fmt, buf, etc). This only works by chance with our
libc, but fails (with a truncated string) on e.g. glibc.

using the old 'cached' value but reporting it as 'cached'.
I've decided to report the 'cached' as 'peak', why? Well because
it is the peak, the peak of what is actually allocated. 'cached'
doesn't make sense to me as a user.
supposed to be opaque to the driver, however it is exposed through
several macros which expect certain behavior. In my original
implementation, I used the mappedsystemva member of the structure
to hold a pointer to the buffer and bytecount to hold the length.
It turns out you must use the startva pointer to point to the
page containing the start of the buffer and set byteoffset to
the offset within the page where the buffer starts. So, for a buffer
with address 'baseva,' startva is baseva & ~(PAGE_SIZE -1) and
byteoffset is baseva & (PAGE_SIZE -1). We have to maintain this
convention everywhere that ndis_buffers are used.
Fortunately, Microsoft defines some macros for initializing and
manipulating NDIS_BUFFER structures in ntddk.h. I adapted some
of them for use here and used them where appropriate.
This fixes the discrepancy I observed between how RX'ed packet sizes
were being reported in the Broadcom wireless driver and the sample
ethernet drivers that I've tested. This should also help the
Intel Centrino wireless driver work.
Also try to properly initialize the 802.11 BSS and IBSS channels.
(Sadly, the channel value is meaningless since there's no way
in the existing NDIS API to get/set the channel, but this should
take care of any 'invalid channel (NULL)' messages printed on
the console.
use it, if we ever did. They have been been VERY poorly maintained for
some time, possibly because they were a NOP. FWIW, This brings our table
formats back closer to the other *BSD's.
- eliminate a malloc()/snprintf()/free() in the native exec(2) case and
in the easy emulation environments.
- Allow the brand emul_path (ie: /compat/xxx) to be NULL rather than
needing it to be an empty string that is always referenced.
but *only* for the kernel. We can do this because the kernel is not a
standard C application environment. This would have stopped the recent
mtx_* arg NULL/MTX_DEF mixups from going unnoticed for so long.
