Adrian Chadd d99eb8230e rtwn: change the USB TX transfers to only do one pending transfer per endpoint
I found I was getting constant device timeouts when doing anything
more complicated than a single SSH on laptop with RTL8811AU.

After digging into it, i found a variety of fun situations, including
traffic stalls that would recover w/ a shorter (1 second) USB transfer
timeout.  However, the big one is a straight up hang of any TX endpoint
until the NIC was reset.  The RX side kept going just fine; only the
TX endpoints would hang.

Reproducing it was easy - just start up a couple of traffic streams
on different WME AC's - eg a best effort + bulk transfer, like
browsing the web and doing an ssh clone - throw in a ping -i 0.1
to your gateway, and it would very quickly hit device timeouts every
couple of seconds.

I put everything into a single TX EP and the hangs went away.
Well, mostly.

So after some MORE digging, I found that this driver isn't checking
if the transfers are going into the correct EPs for the packet
WME access category / 802.11 TID; and would frequently be able
to schedule multiple transfers into the same endpoint.

Then there's a second problem - there's an array of endpoints
used for setting up the USB device, with .endpoint = UE_ADDR_ANY,
however they're also being setup with the same endpoint configured
in multiple transfer configs.  Eg, a NIC with 3 or 4 bulk TX endpoints
will configure the BK and BE endpoints with the same physical endpoint
ID.  This also leads to timed out transfers.

My /guess/ was that the firmware isn't happy with one or both of the
above, and so I solved both.

* drop the USB transfer timeout to 1 second, not 5 seconds -
  that way we'll either get a 1 second traffic pause and USB transfer
  failure, or a 5 second device timeout.  Having both the TX timeout
  and the USB transfer timeout made recovery from a USB transfer
  timeout (without a NIC reset) almost impossible.

* enforce one transfer per endpoint;
* separate pending/active buffer tracking per endpoint;
* each endpoint now has its own TX callback to make sure the queue /
  end point ID is known;
* and only frames from a given endpoint pending queue is going
  into the active queue and into that endpoint.
* Finally, create a local wme2qid array and populate it with the
  endpoint mapping that ensures unique physical endpoint use.

Locally tested:

* rtl8812AU, 11n STA mode
* rtl8192EU, 11n STA mode (with diffs to fix the channel config / power
  timeouts.)

FreeBSD Kernel Source:

This directory contains the source files and build glue that make up the FreeBSD kernel and its modules, including both original and contributed software.

Kernel configuration files are located in the conf/ subdirectory of each architecture. GENERIC is the configuration used in release builds. NOTES contains documentation of all possible entries. LINT is a compile-only configuration used to maximize build coverage and detect regressions.

Documentation:

Source code documentation is maintained in a set of man pages, under section 9. These pages are located in share/man/man9, from the top-level of the src tree. Consult intro(9) for an overview of existing pages.

Some additional high-level documentation of the kernel is maintained in the Architecture Handbook.
