rt2800: fix wrong TX power compensation

2013-10-26T20:05:59Z

commit 6e956da2027c767859128b9bfef085cf2a8e233b upstream. We should not do temperature compensation on devices without EXTERNAL_TX_ALC bit set (called DynamicTxAgcControl on vendor driver). Such devices can have totally bogus TSSI parameters on the EEPROM, but still threaded by us as valid and result doing wrong TX power calculations. This fix inability to connect to AP on slightly longer distance on some Ralink chips/devices. Reported-and-tested-by: Fabien ADAM Signed-off-by: Stanislaw Gruszka Signed-off-by: John W.

rt2x00: fix stop queue

2013-09-10T00:57:17Z

commit e2288b66fe7ff0288382b2af671b4da558b44472 upstream. Since we clear QUEUE_STARTED in rt2x00queue_stop_queue(), following call to rt2x00queue_pause_queue() reduce to noop, i.e we do not stop queue in mac80211. To fix that introduce rt2x00queue_pause_queue_nocheck() function, which will stop queue in mac80211 directly. Note that rt2x00_start_queue() explicitly set QUEUE_PAUSED bit. Note also that reordering operations i.e. first call to rt2x00queue_pause_queue() and then clear QUEUE_STARTED bit, will race with rt2x00queue_unpause_queue(), so calling ieee80211_stop_queue() directly is the only available solution to fix the problem without major rework.

rt2x00: rt2x00pci_regbusy_read() - only print register access failure once

2013-04-25T19:25:31Z

commit 83589b30f1e1dc9898986293c9336b8ce1705dec upstream. BugLink: http://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1128840 It appears that when this register read fails it never recovers, so I think there is no need to repeat the same error message ad infinitum.

rt2x00: error in configurations with mesh support disabled

2013-04-10T02:20:08Z

commit 6ef9e2f6d12ce9e2120916804d2ddd46b954a70b upstream. If CONFIG_MAC80211_MESH is not set, cfg80211 will now allow advertising interface combinations with NL80211_IFTYPE_MESH_POINT present.

rt2800usb: Add support for 2001:3c1e (D-Link DWA-125 rev B1) USB Wi-Fi adapter

2013-02-20T03:15:27Z

commit fd7b9270120ca7e53fbf0469febe0c68acf6a0a2 upstream. D-Link DWA-125/B1 is a relatively new USB Wi-Fi adapter, using a Ralink chipset supported by the rt2800usb driver. Currently, to work around the problem (it's missing in all present kernel versions, up to and including 3.7.x), I had to add this to /etc/rc.local: echo 2001 3c1e >> /sys/bus/usb/drivers/rt2800usb/new_id After that, the device works without problems. Been using it for over a week with no bugs in sight. The attached patch is trivial and simply adds the new USB ID to the list of devices handled by rt2800usb.

rt2x00: Don't let mac80211 send a BAR when an AMPDU subframe fails

2013-01-16T01:13:22Z

commit be03d4a45c09ee5100d3aaaedd087f19bc20d01f upstream. There are connection stalls or very poor throughputs with rt2800 hardware using 802.11n in AP mode since patch "mac80211: retry sending failed BAR frames later instead of tearing down aggr"[1][2]. Since rt2800 hardware is not able to correctly report the tx status of BAR frames, this patch removes as workaround the existing error handling on AP side, which lets mac80211 send a BAR when an AMPDU subframe fails. As a result, most wifi clients (aside from Intel STAs on Windows) instead will timeout now the reorder buffer and request the lost frame again. The correct solution would be, to tear down BA session on AP side. This patch was born on the basis of "[RFT] rt2x00: Tear down BA session on QoS frame failure"[3]. Thanks to Helmut Schaa for his support!

rt2800: validate step value for temperature compensation

2012-11-16T16:47:01Z

commit bf7e1abe434ba9e22e8dc04a4cba4ab504b788b8 upstream. Some hardware has correct (!= 0xff) value of tssi_bounds[4] in the EEPROM, but step is equal to 0xff. This results on ridiculous delta calculations and completely broke TX power settings.
