what platform did you see this on?

approved; @thierry are these ok for you? what would you like to test build them with to make sure they're all ok now?

(and if the docs site has the same thing - a link to the foundation versus freebsd.org/donations - then we should also fix that too in a separate commit.)

Having it reference freebsd.org/donations is in my opinion the right move. Let's do that.

I'm ok with in general (and I'm glad there's no push back so far, affinity is always one of those tricksy discussion points with respect to workload performance!)

fixed, thanks!

feedback from arrowd

oh i see what's going on here. ugh. :-) I'm ok with this, but gosh we need a less cpu specific way of doing all of this!

yeah just remove the - at that first comment line and then i'll be good to go

boot tested on this laptop; associated and works. Getting 10mbit down and 6mbit up on speedtest.net speedtest on my busy 2GHz air. It looks like it hovers around MCS3/MCS4 here but that's likely distance/busy air.

Would it be more suitable to be in dns category?

oh, before I remove it - go update the comments - they need to be a bits horter and there's no longer a kernel config option for it.

I'm not sure who to route this to for review. I'll go poke around!

i'm pretty sure we can check in binary files nowdays; i won't do it as part of this commit but I'll go review moving the uuencoded firmware files to binary files in a separate diff.

add a note to UPDATING too explaining what the version bump is for.

make sure you do a "make universe" on a beefy enough machine to try and capture any of the weird kernel variants having different sizes.

thanks! @markj what do you think?

Tested on RTL8192CU and RTL8188CUS as well. Probe/attach is fine for these two diffs.

Locally tested on RTL8821AU . We should test it on a few more just to make sure it's okay.

So hm, yay or nay on this?

same a the previous one; what devices have you tested this with?
It'd be good to know that it doesn't break any of the current rtwn USB devices.
(I'll try it myself locally tonight.)

which devices have you tested this on? You should add that list to the commit message.
