+/********************* START TX SCHEDULER *************************************/
+
+/**
+ * 4965 Tx Scheduler
+ *
+ * The Tx Scheduler selects the next frame to be transmitted, chosing TFDs
+ * (Transmit Frame Descriptors) from up to 16 circular Tx queues resident in
+ * host DRAM. It steers each frame's Tx command (which contains the frame
+ * data) into one of up to 7 prioritized Tx DMA FIFO channels within the
+ * device. A queue maps to only one (selectable by driver) Tx DMA channel,
+ * but one DMA channel may take input from several queues.
+ *
+ * Tx DMA channels have dedicated purposes. For 4965, they are used as follows:
+ *
+ * 0 -- EDCA BK (background) frames, lowest priority
+ * 1 -- EDCA BE (best effort) frames, normal priority
+ * 2 -- EDCA VI (video) frames, higher priority
+ * 3 -- EDCA VO (voice) and management frames, highest priority
+ * 4 -- Commands (e.g. RXON, etc.)
+ * 5 -- HCCA short frames
+ * 6 -- HCCA long frames
+ * 7 -- not used by driver (device-internal only)
+ *
+ * Driver should normally map queues 0-6 to Tx DMA/FIFO channels 0-6.
+ * In addition, driver can map queues 7-15 to Tx DMA/FIFO channels 0-3 to
+ * support 11n aggregation via EDCA DMA channels.
+ *
+ * The driver sets up each queue to work in one of two modes:
+ *
+ * 1) Scheduler-Ack, in which the scheduler automatically supports a
+ * block-ack (BA) window of up to 64 TFDs. In this mode, each queue
+ * contains TFDs for a unique combination of Recipient Address (RA)
+ * and Traffic Identifier (TID), that is, traffic of a given
+ * Quality-Of-Service (QOS) priority, destined for a single station.
+ *
+ * In scheduler-ack mode, the scheduler keeps track of the Tx status of
+ * each frame within the BA window, including whether it's been transmitted,
+ * and whether it's been acknowledged by the receiving station. The device
+ * automatically processes block-acks received from the receiving STA,
+ * and reschedules un-acked frames to be retransmitted (successful
+ * Tx completion may end up being out-of-order).
+ *
+ * The driver must maintain the queue's Byte Count table in host DRAM
+ * (struct iwl4965_sched_queue_byte_cnt_tbl) for this mode.
+ * This mode does not support fragmentation.
+ *
+ * 2) FIFO (a.k.a. non-Scheduler-ACK), in which each TFD is processed in order.
+ * The device may automatically retry Tx, but will retry only one frame
+ * at a time, until receiving ACK from receiving station, or reaching
+ * retry limit and giving up.
+ *
+ * The command queue (#4) must use this mode!
+ * This mode does not require use of the Byte Count table in host DRAM.
+ *
+ * Driver controls scheduler operation via 3 means:
+ * 1) Scheduler registers
+ * 2) Shared scheduler data base in internal 4956 SRAM
+ * 3) Shared data in host DRAM
+ *
+ * Initialization:
+ *
+ * When loading, driver should allocate memory for:
+ * 1) 16 TFD circular buffers, each with space for (typically) 256 TFDs.
+ * 2) 16 Byte Count circular buffers in 16 KBytes contiguous memory
+ * (1024 bytes for each queue).
+ *
+ * After receiving "Alive" response from uCode, driver must initialize
+ * the scheduler (especially for queue #4, the command queue, otherwise
+ * the driver can't issue commands!):
+ */
+
+/**
+ * Max Tx window size is the max number of contiguous TFDs that the scheduler
+ * can keep track of at one time when creating block-ack chains of frames.
+ * Note that "64" matches the number of ack bits in a block-ack packet.
+ * Driver should use SCD_WIN_SIZE and SCD_FRAME_LIMIT values to initialize
+ * SCD_CONTEXT_QUEUE_OFFSET(x) values.
