Consider an implementation from someone who has no knowledge of the stack. It appears as a giant wall of text. Where do you start? What's the equivalent of main() and how do the handlers interoperate?
I would benefit from a walkthrough of how the driver works:

I stopped reading. I do not understand the PROTOCOL file for most of it. If you want an overview of the specification go and read a summary of the specification but that doesn't need to be in our tree.

farhan_farhan.codes updated the diff for D49884: Porting athn from OpenBSD.
Probe requests go out and are correctly sent
I confirmed this with Wireshark on another machine
However, it does not appear to go to the next step in the handshake process.
farhan_farhan.codes added a comment to D49884: Porting athn from OpenBSD.
Probe Requests go out correctly, Probe requests are sent back out and appear to come back in -- I verified via Wireshark on a 3rd machine.
But the driver is still sending out probe request frames and doesn't move to the next step.

adrian added a comment to D54390: net80211: clean up time comparison in HT code.
yeah, without it the ampdu retry stuff eventually stops retrying until the counter loops around again for the comparison to work

I don't get the correlation between your commit message and these changes. Is there an actual change (due to casting) in this change? Or is there a problem "somewhere" but this change does not necessarily address that?
bz added a comment to D54790: net80211: migrate wk_rxmic / wk_rxmic in TKIP code to accessors.
Your first line of commit message is RX repetitive; I assume one should be tx. Should be fixed before commit.

Can you please create diffs with -U9999 if you manually upload them so there is context?
