Just wanted to make everyone aware that OpenBSD just 1 hour ago commited a bunch of changes to their iwn driver. maybe some of it is useful for FreeBSD as well? Log message: huge diff introducing many of the recent changes made by intel to iwlwifi: - ICT interrupts for >=3D5000 series (avoids reading IWN_INT which is slow) - support v2 firmware header (including build number) - switch to v2 firmware api (requires a firmware package upgrade) - initial support for 1000 series and initial bits for upcoming 6000 series (untested as hardware is not available to the general public) - many bug fixes, including workarounds for hardware bugs make sure to update your iwn-firmware package to iwn-firmware-5.2.
