[GSOC17] Porting 802.11n and 802.11ac support to iwm(4)

[Mateusz Piotrowski]

Hello,

In the past two weeks I focused on reading Linux iwlwifi/mvm and FreeBSD 
iwm source code. As wireless device driver development is a fairly new 
concept to me I spent most of my time on reading tutorials, articles and 
code of existing solutions.

I am organizing my notes and bookmarks on FreeBSD website here [1]. If 
you're interested in Wi-Fi driver development it is a good place to start.

Additionally, I actively participate in the FreeBSD Wi-Fi IRC channel.

802.11n support is being actively developed at the moment. Adrian and I 
will discuss a todo list for the following weeks so hopefully I'll have 
some more interesting news next week.


Cheers,

Mateusz Piotrowski
