2011-09-13cfg80211/nl80211: Indicate roaming feature capability to userspace.Vivek Natarajan
When the rssi of the current AP drops, both wpa_supplicant and the firmware may do a background scan to find a better AP and try to associate. Since firmware based roaming is faster, inform wpa_supplicant to avoid roaming and let the firmware decide to roam if necessary. For fullmac drivers like ath6kl, it is just enough to provide the ESSID and the firmware will decide on the BSSID. Since it is not possible to do pre-auth during roaming for fullmac drivers, the wpa_supplicant needs to completely disconnect with the old AP and reconnect with the new AP. This consumes lot of time and it is better to leave the roaming decision to the firmware. Signed-off-by: Vivek Natarajan <nataraja@qca.qualcomm.com> Signed-off-by: John W.

2011-09-13mac80211: retry sending failed BAR frames later instead of tearing down aggrFelix Fietkau
Unfortunately failed BAR tx attempts happen more frequently than I expected, and the resulting aggregation teardowns cause performance issues, as the aggregation session does not always get re-established properly. Instead of tearing down the entire aggr session, we can simply store the SSN of the last failed BAR tx attempt, wait for the first successful tx status event, and then send another BAR with the same SSN.

2011-09-13ath9k_hw: do not apply the 2.4 ghz ack timeout workaround to ctsFelix Fietkau
It is only used to workaround interoperability issues related to longer delays in receiving the block ack, so it is not necessary to apply it to the CTS exchange.

2011-09-13mac80211: Defer tranmission of mesh path errorsJavier Cardona

2011-08-30ath9k: defer ath_tx_setup_buffer setup to the first tx attempt during aggrFelix Fietkau
With sequence number and buffer allocation deferred to when they're needed for the first time, it becomes much easier to start dropping packets from the tid queue if necessary, e.g. when latency suddenly increases. This can lead to some future improvements in buffer management for better latency. Signed-off-by: Felix Fietkau <nbd@openwrt.org> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>

2011-08-29ath9k: fix regression in sending aggregated packetsFelix Fietkau
The recent commit "ath9k: Send legacy rated frames as unaggregated" introduced a check to ensure that packets with non-MCS rates set in the rate series will not be aggregated. However, it failed to check if the rate series is valid before testing the flags, thus breaking aggregation for normal MCS-only packets if the last series is unset.

2011-08-29b43: Relax requirement for descriptors to be in the DMA zoneLarry Finger
When 64-bit DMA was first used, there were problems with the BCM4311 (14e4:4311). The problem was "fixed" by using the GFP_DMA flag in the allocation of coherent ring descriptor memory. The original problem is now believed to have been due to bugs in the 64-bit DMA implementation in the rest of the kernel, and that those bugs have been fixed. Accordingly, the requirement for the descriptors to be in the DMA zone is relaxed. Bounce buffers are left in the DMA zone.
