2011-07-05ath9k: Fix tx throughput drops for AR9003 chips with AES encryptionRajkumar Manoharan
While sending aggregated frames in AES, the AR5416 chips required additional padding b/w subframes. This workaround is not needed for edma (AR9003 family) chips. With this patch ~4Mbps thoughput improvement was observed in clear environment. Cc: stable@kernel.org Signed-off-by: Rajkumar Manoharan <rmanohar@qca.qualcomm.com> Signed-off-by: John W.

2011-06-27ath9k: Fix locking issue during tx completionRajkumar Manoharan
The received tx status of aggregated frame without BlockAck may cause deaf state in AR5416 cards. So the driver does a reset to recover. When this happens, we release the pcu_lock before doing a reset as ath_rest acquires pcu_lock. This is ugly and also not atomic. Fixing this addresses the TX DMA failure also. ath_tx_complete_aggr can be called from different paths which takes different variants of spin_lock. This patch also addresses the following warning.

2011-06-21net: remove mm.h inclusion from netdevice.hAlexey Dobriyan
Remove linux/mm.h inclusion from netdevice.h -- it's unused (I've checked manually). To prevent mm.h inclusion via other channels also extract "enum dma_data_direction" definition into separate header. This tiny piece is what gluing netdevice.h with mm.h via "netdevice.h => dmaengine.h => dma-mapping.h => scatterlist.h => mm.h". Removal of mm.h from scatterlist.h was tried and was found not feasible on most archs, so the link was cutoff earlier. Hope people are OK with tiny include file. Note, that mm_types.h is still dragged in, but it is a separate story. Signed-off-by: Alexey Dobriyan <adobriyan@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2011-06-01ath9k: unify edma and non-edma tx code, improve tx fifo handlingFelix Fietkau
EDMA based chips (AR9380+) have 8 Tx FIFO slots, which are used to fix the tx queue start/stop race conditions which have to be worked around for earlier chips by keeping the last descriptor in the queue. The current code stores all frames that do not fit onto the 8 FIFO slots in a separate list. Whenever a FIFO slot is freed up, the next frame (or A-MPDU) from the pending queue gets moved to that slot. This process is not only inefficient, but also unnecessary. The code can be improved visibly by keeping the pending queue fully linked, and moving the contents of the entire queue to a FIFO slot as it becomes available. This patch makes the necessary changes for that and also merges some code that was duplicated for EDMA vs non-EDMA. It changes txq->axq_link to point to the last descriptor instead of the link pointer, so that ath9k_hw_set_desc_link can be used, which works on all chips. With this patch, a small performance increase for non-aggregated traffic was observed on AR9380 based embedded hardware. Signed-off-by: Felix Fietkau <nbd@openwrt.org> Signed-off-by: John W.

2011-04-19ath9k: assign keycache slots to unencrypted stationsFelix Fietkau
Frame filtering relies on having a valid destination index (keycache slot), to keep track of the destination. Assigning a keycache slot (configured to unencrypted, with no key data attached) improves powersave handling in AP mode with no encryption. The dummy keycache entry for a station is cleared, when a real key gets added. Signed-off-by: Felix Fietkau <nbd@openwrt.org> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>
2011-04-19ath9k: fix powersave frame filtering/buffering in AP modeFelix Fietkau
This patch fixes a long standing issue of pending packets in the queue being sent (and retransmitted many times) to sleeping stations. This was made worse by aggregation through driver-internal retransmitting of A-MDPU subframes. Previously the hardware tx filter was cleared unconditionally for every single packet - with this patch it uses the IEEE80211_TX_CTL_CLEAR_PS_FILT for unaggregated frames. A sta_notify driver op is added to stop aggregation for stations when they enter powersave mode. Subframes stay buffered inside the driver, to ensure that the BlockAck window keeps a sane state. Since the driver uses software aggregation, the clearing of the tx filter needs to be handled by the driver instead of mac80211 for aggregated frames.

Because of its its high false positive probability (e.g. with paused TIDs) and because it is in the way of other pending work (AP powersave fixes), it is better to remove this code entirely.

2011-03-21ath9k: Fix kernel panic in AR2427Mohammed Shafi Shajakhan
Kernel panic occurs just after AR2427 establishes connection with AP. Unless aggregation is enabled we don't initialize the TID structure. Thus accesing the elements of the TID structure when aggregation is disabled, leads to NULL pointer dereferencing.

2011-03-14ath9k: fix aggregation related interoperability issuesFelix Fietkau
Some clients seems to keep track of their reorder window even after an aggregation session has been disabled. This causes issues if there are still retried but not completed frames pending for the TID.

2011-03-14ath9k: fix stopping tx dma on resetFelix Fietkau
In some situations, stopping Tx DMA frequently fails, leading to messages like this: ath: Failed to stop TX DMA in 100 msec after killing last frame ath: Failed to stop TX DMA! This patch uses a few MAC features to abort DMA globally instead of iterating over all hardware queues and attempting to stop them individually. Not only is that faster and works with a shorter timeout, it also makes the process much more reliable. With this change, I can no longer trigger these messages on AR9380, and on AR9280 they become much more rare. Signed-off-by: Felix Fietkau <nbd@openwrt.org> Signed-off-by: John W.

This patch reverts the following commit ath9k: remove bfs_paprd_timestamp from struct ath_buf_state Under high interference/noisy environment conditions where PAPRD frames fails heavily introduces a possibility of double freeing skb's and causes kernel panic after some time.This patch reverts back to the original approach of using paprd_timestamp before freeing the PAPRD frame skb's [ 194.193705] Pid: 0, comm: swapper Tainted: G D WC 2.6.35-22-generic #33-Ubuntu [ 194.193712] Call Trace: [ 194.193722] [<c05c6468>] ? printk+0x2d/0x35 [ 194.193732] [<c05c63c3>] panic+0x5a/0xd2 [ 194.193741] [<c05ca3ed>] oops_end+0xcd/0xd0 [ 194.193750] [<c0105f74>] die+0x54/0x80 [ 194.193758] [<c05c9a16>] do_trap+0x96/0xc0 [ 194.193837] [<c0103fb0>] ? do_invalid_op+0x0/0xa0 [ 194.193846] [<c010403b>] do_invalid_op+0x8b/0xa0 [ 194.193856] [<c020bd4c>] ? kfree+0xec/0xf0 [ 194.193866] [<c012ce18>] ? default_spin_lock_flags+0x8/0x10 [ 194.193877] [<c01de47a>] ? free_one_page+0x12a/0x2d0 [ 194.193888] [<c01e04dc>] ? __free_pages+0x1c/0x40 [ 194.193897] [<c05c97a7>] error_code+0x73/0x78 [ 194.193906] [<c020bd4c>] ? kfree+0xec/0xf0 [ 194.193915] [<c04ecdd0>] ? skb_release_data+0x70/0xa0 [ 194.193924] [<c04ecdd0>] skb_release_data+0x70/0xa0 [ 194.193933] [<c04ec997>] __kfree_skb+0x17/0x90 [ 194.193941] [<c04eca31>] consume_skb+0x21/0x40 [ 194.193964] [<f85e0b70>] ieee80211_tx_status+0x760/0x860 [mac80211] [ 194.193979] [<f85caddf>] ath_tx_complete_buf+0x1bf/0x2c0 [ath9k] [ 194.193988] [<c05c8b9f>] ? _raw_spin_lock_irqsave+0x2f/0x50 [ 194.193997] [<c04ec40e>] ? skb_queue_tail+0x3e/0x50 [ 194.194010] [<f85cc803>] ath_tx_complete_aggr+0x823/0x940 [ath9k] [ 194.194021] [<c0108a28>] ? sched_clock+0x8/0x10 [ 194.194030] [<c016bf14>] ? sched_clock_local+0xa4/0x180 [ 194.194040] [<c0139f57>] ? enqueue_sleeper+0x1e7/0x2b0 [ 194.194051] [<c013a194>] ? enqueue_entity+0x174/0x200 [ 194.194064] [<f85ce83d>] ath_tx_edma_tasklet+0x2bd/0x3b0 [ath9k] [ 194.194074] [<c05c8b9f>] ? _raw_spin_lock_irqsave+0x2f/0x50 [ 194.194088] [<f85c7b9f>] ath9k_tasklet+0x9f/0x190 [ath9k] [ 194.194097] [<c01505d7>] tasklet_action+0xa7/0xb0 [ 194.194107] [<c015127c>] __do_softirq+0x9c/0x1b0 [ 194.194117] [<c01a7f64>] ? irq_to_desc+0x14/0x20 [ 194.194126] [<c0124fc4>] ? ack_apic_level+0x64/0x1f0 [ 194.194136] [<c01513d5>] do_softirq+0x45/0x50 [ 194.194145] [<c0151545>] irq_exit+0x65/0x70 [ 194.194153] [<c05cf665>] do_IRQ+0x55/0xc0 [ 194.194162] [<c016a6c7>] ? hrtimer_start+0x27/0x30 [ 194.194171] [<c0103630>] common_interrupt+0x30/0x38 [ 194.194181] [<c012c21a>] ? native_safe_halt+0xa/0x10 [ 194.194268] [<c010a2f9>] default_idle+0x49/0xb0 [ 194.194277] [<c0101fcc>] cpu_idle+0x8c/0xd0 [ 194.194286] [<c05b2431>] rest_init+0x71/0x80 [ 194.194295] [<c081981a>] start_kernel+0x36e/0x374 [ 194.194305] [<c08199dd>] ? pass_all_bootoptions+0x0/0xa [ 194.194314] [<c08190d7>] i386_start_kernel+0xd7/0xdf [ 194.194364] panic occurred, switching back to text console Signed-off-by: Mohammed Shafi Shajakhan <mshajakhan@atheros.com> Signed-off-by: John W.

2011-01-28ath9k: fix tx queue index confusion in debugfs codeFelix Fietkau
Various places printing tx queue information used various different ways to get a tx queue index for printing statistics. Most of these ways were wrong. ATH_TXQ_AC_* cannot be used as an index for sc->tx.txq, because it is only used internally for queue assignment. One place used WME_AC_* as a queue index for sc->debug.stats.txstats, however this array uses the ath9k_hw queue number as well. Fix all of this by always using the ath9k_hw queue number as an index, and always looking it up by going through sc->tx.txq_map.

2011-01-28ath9k: clean up the code that wakes the mac80211 queuesFelix Fietkau
Instead of spreading ath_wake_mac80211_queue() calls over multiple places in the tx path that process the tx queue for completion, call it only where the pending frames counter gets decremented, eliminating some redundant checks. To prevent queue draining from waking the queues prematurely (e.g. during a hardware reset), reset the queue stop state when draining all queues, as the caller in main.c will run ieee80211_wake_queues(hw) anyway.

2011-01-27ath9k: fix misplaced debug codeFelix Fietkau
The commit 'ath9k: Add more information to debugfs xmit file.' added more debug counters to ath9k and also added some lines of code to ath9k_hw. Since ath9k_hw is also used by ath9k_htc, its code must not depend on ath9k data structures. In this case it was not fatal, but it's still wrong, so the code needs to be moved back to ath9k.

2011-01-21ath9k: Restart xmit logic in xmit watchdog.Ben Greear
The system can get into a state where the xmit queue is stopped, but there are no packets pending, so the queue will not be restarted. Add logic to the xmit watchdog to attempt to restart the xmit logic if this situation is detected. Example 'dmesg' output: ath: txq: f4e723e0 axq_qnum: 2, mac80211_qnum: 2 axq_link: f4e996c8 pending frames: 1 axq_acq empty: 1 stopped: 0 axq_depth: 0 Attempting to restart tx logic.

2011-01-21ath9k: add missing ps wakeup/restore callsFelix Fietkau
There are several places where ath_reset() was called without proper calls to ath9k_ps_wakeup/ath9k_ps_restore. To fix this, add those calls directly to ath_reset and drop them from callers where it makes sense. Also add them to the config callback around ath_update_txpow to fix a crash that happens when the tx power changed before any vif is brought up.
