2013-04-25ath9k_hw: change AR9580 initvals to fix a stability issueFelix Fietkau
commit f09a878511997c25a76bf111a32f6b8345a701a5 upstream. The hardware parsing of Control Wrapper Frames needs to be disabled, as it has been causing spurious decryption error reports. The initvals for other chips have been updated to disable it, but AR9580 was left out for some reason. Signed-off-by: Felix Fietkau <nbd@openwrt.org> Signed-off-by: John W.

2013-04-05ath9k_hw: revert chainmask to user configuration after calibrationFelix Fietkau
commit 74632d11a133b5baf6b9d622dd19d2f944d93d94 upstream. The commit 'ath9k_hw: fix calibration issues on chainmask that don't include chain 0' changed the hardware chainmask to the chip chainmask for the duration of the calibration, but the revert to user configuration in the reset path runs too early. That causes some issues with limiting the number of antennas (including spurious failure in hardware-generated packets). Fix this by reverting the chainmask after the essential parts of the calibration that need the workaround, and before NF calibration is run.

2013-03-14ath9k_hw: improve reset reliability after errorsFelix Fietkau
commit 3412f2f086ea7531378fabe756bd4a1109994ae6 upstream. On many different chips, important aspects of the MAC state are not fully cleared by a warm reset. This can show up as tx/rx hangs, those annoying "DMA failed to stop in 10 ms..." messages or other quirks. On AR933x, the chip can occasionally get stuck in a way that only a driver unload/reload or a reboot would bring it back to life. With this patch, a full reset is issued when bringing the chip out of FULL-SLEEP state (after idle), or if either Rx or Tx was not shut down properly. This makes the DMA related error messages disappear completely in my tests on AR933x, and the chip does not get stuck anymore. Signed-off-by: Felix Fietkau <nbd@openwrt.org> Signed-off-by: John W.

2013-03-14ath9k: fix RSSI dummy marker valueFelix Fietkau
commit a3d63cadbad97671d740a9698acc2c95d1ca6e79 upstream. RSSI is being stored internally as s8 in several places. The indication of an unset RSSI value, ATH_RSSI_DUMMY_MARKER, was supposed to have been set to 127, but ended up being set to 0x127 because of a code cleanup mistake.

commit 1adb2e2b5f85023d17eb4f95386a57029df27c88 upstream. When the next beacon is sent, the ath_buf from the previous run is reused. If getting a new beacon from mac80211 fails, bf->bf_mpdu is not reset, yet the skb is freed, leading to a double-free on the next beacon tx attempt, resulting in a system crash.

2013-01-17ath9k_hw: Fix signal strength / channel noise reportingFelix Fietkau
commit b7c0c238898d200e80487516e2b67aba2a522cc0 upstream. While AR_PHY_CCA_NOM_VAL_* does contain the expected internal noise floor for a chip measured in clean air, it refers to the lowest expected reading. Depending on the frequency, this measurement can vary by about 6db, thus causing a higher reported channel noise and signal strength. Factor in the 6db offset when converting internal noisefloor to channel noise. This patch makes the reported values more accurate for all chips without affecting NF calibration behavior.

2012-11-17ath9k: Test for TID only in BlockAcks while checking tx statusSven Eckelmann
commit 6fe7cc71bbf3a0bc28c9cec3c00bc11e81344412 upstream. The ath9k xmit functions for AMPDUs can send frames as non-aggregate in case only one frame is currently available. The client will then answer using a normal Ack instead of a BlockAck. This acknowledgement has no TID stored and therefore the hardware is not able to provide us the corresponding TID. The TID set by the hardware in the tx status descriptor has to be seen as undefined and not as a valid TID value for normal acknowledgements. Doing otherwise results in a massive amount of retransmissions and stalls of connections. Users may experience low bandwidth and complete connection stalls in environments with transfers using multiple TIDs. This regression was introduced in b11b160defc48e4daa283f785192ea3a23a51f8e ("ath9k: validate the TID in the tx status information").

2012-11-17ath9k: fix stale pointers potentially causing access to free'd skbsFelix Fietkau
commit 8c6e30936a7893a85f6222084f0f26aceb81137a upstream. bf->bf_next is only while buffers are chained as part of an A-MPDU in the tx queue. When a tid queue is flushed (e.g. on tearing down an aggregation session), frames can be enqueued again as normal transmission, without bf_next being cleared. This can lead to the old pointer being dereferenced again later. This patch might fix crashes and "Failed to stop TX DMA!" messages.

2012-09-14ath9k: fix decrypt_error initialization in ath_rx_tasklet()Lorenzo Bianconi
commit e1352fde5682ab1bdd2a9e5d75c22d1fe210ef77 upstream. ath_rx_tasklet() calls ath9k_rx_skb_preprocess() and ath9k_rx_skb_postprocess() in a loop over the received frames. The decrypt_error flag is initialized to false just outside ath_rx_tasklet() loop. ath9k_rx_accept(), called by ath9k_rx_skb_preprocess(), only sets decrypt_error to true and never to false. Then ath_rx_tasklet() calls ath9k_rx_skb_postprocess() and passes decrypt_error to it. So, after a decryption error, in ath9k_rx_skb_postprocess(), we can have a leftover value from another processed frame. In that case, the frame will not be marked with RX_FLAG_DECRYPTED even if it is decrypted correctly. When using CCMP encryption this issue can lead to connection stuck because of CCMP PN corruption and a waste of CPU time since mac80211 tries to decrypt an already deciphered frame with ieee80211_aes_ccm_decrypt. Fix the issue initializing decrypt_error flag at the begging of the ath_rx_tasklet() loop. Signed-off-by: Lorenzo Bianconi <lorenzo.bianconi83@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: John W.

2012-07-16ath9k: Fix a WARNING on suspend/resume with IBSSMohammed Shafi Shajakhan
commit 2031b4c2b4904f7448ab9e4bc6b9bf16e32709f5 upstream. this patch is dependent on the patch "cfg80211: fix interface combinations" In ath9k currently we have ADHOC interface as a single incompatible interface. when drv_add_interface is called during resume we got to consider number of vifs already present in addition to checking the drivers 'opmode' information about ADHOC. we incorrectly assume an ADHOC interface is already present. Then we may miss some driver specific data for the ADHOC interface after resume. The above mentioned checks can be removed from the driver, as the patch 'cfg80211: fix interface combinations' ensures that if an interface type is not advertised by the driver in any of the interface combinations(via ieee80211_iface_combination) then it shall be treated as a single incompatible interface. Fixes the following warning on suspend/resume with ibss interface. ath: phy0: Cannot create ADHOC interface when other interfaces already exist.

2012-05-02Revert "ath9k_hw: Fix incorrect spur_freq_sd for AR9003"Rajkumar Manoharan
This reverts commit a844adfd7bee4edc66d337de6c33b348e83552a8. The commit a844adfd is degrading rx sensitivity of lower rate in HT40 mode and it is confirmed that reverting the change is improving rx sensitivity. spur_freq_sd (for self-corr in AGC) is defined with respect to the center of each 20MHz channel while spur_phase_delta (for self-corr in Rx and spur data filter) is defined with respect to the center of current RF channel. So in short, we need to subtract spur_freq_sd (for self-corr in AGC) by the offset between the center of primary20 and the center of RF channel in SW. This offset could be +/10 MHz for dynamic 40.

2012-04-23ath9k: fix tx power settings for AR9287Gabor Juhos
The 'ath9k_hw_update_regulatory_maxpower' helper function has been introduced by commit a55f858852e4345d0a31af593c46738ca8614bff (ath9k_hw: Cleanup TX power calculation for AR9287). Updating of the max_power_level value has been moved into the helper function in that change, however the removed code from 'ath9k_hw_ar9287_set_txpower' has not been replaced with a call of the new helper function. Due to that missing call, retrieving tx power for 2x2 and 3x3 chainmask is not handled properly. During the calculation of the tx power for 2x2 and 3x3 chainmasks the values are reduced. Those reductions must be compensated during retrieving. Fix this by adding the missing call of the helper function.

2012-04-23ath9k: add an extra boolean parameter to ath9k_hw_apply_txpowerGabor Juhos
In order to unifying regulatory limit handling commit ca2c68cc7bc80fc4504fb420df04cce99c9ee6ec (ath9k_hw: clean up tx power handling) introduced a new helper function 'ath9k_hw_apply_txpower', and the direct calls of 'ah->eep_ops->set_txpower' has been replaced by a call of the helper function. This caused a change in the behaviour of the 'ath9k_hw_set_txpowerlimit' function. The purpose of that function is to calculate and store the rate txpower table and the regulatory limit without touching the hardware registers. Before the commit, the 'test' parameter of the function was passed to the 'ah->eep_ops->set_txpower'. Now the calling of the 'set_txpower' function happens indirectly through 'ath9k_hw_apply_txpower', so the 'test' argument of the 'set_txpower' is always 'false'. This patch restores the original behaviour of 'ath9k_hw_set_txpowerlimit' by adding a new argument to 'ath9k_hw_apply_txpower.'

Many users of debugfs copy the implementation of default_open() when they want to support a custom read/write function op. This leads to a proliferation of the default_open() implementation across the entire tree. Now that the common implementation has been consolidated into libfs we can replace all the users of this function with simple_open(). This replacement was done with the following semantic patch: <smpl> @ open @ identifier open_f != simple_open; identifier i, f; @@ -int open_f(struct inode *i, struct file *f) -{ ( -if (i->i_private) -f->private_data = i->i_private; | -f->private_data = i->i_private; ) -return 0; -} @ has_open depends on open @ identifier fops; identifier open.open_f; @@ struct file_operations fops = { ... -.open = open_f, +.open = simple_open, ... }; </smpl> [akpm@linux-foundation.org: checkpatch fixes] Signed-off-by: Stephen Boyd <sboyd@codeaurora.org> Cc: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org> Cc: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk> Cc: Julia Lawall <Julia.Lawall@lip6.fr> Acked-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

2012-03-26ath9k: reduce listen time periodRajkumar Manoharan
When we have downlink traffic alone and the station is going thru bgscan, the client is out of operating channel for around 1000ms which is too long. The mac80211 decides when to switch back to oper channel based on tx queue, bad latency and listen time. As the station does not have tx traffic, the bgscan can easily affect downlink throughput. By reducing the listen time, it helps the associated AP to retain the downstream rate.

2012-03-26ath9k: fix max noise floor thresholdRajkumar Manoharan
Currently the maximum noise floor limit is set as too high (-60dB). The assumption of having a higher threshold limit is that it would help de-sensitize the receiver (reduce phy errors) from continuous interference. But when we have a bursty interference where there are collisions and then free air time and if the receiver is desensitized too much, it will miss the normal packets too. Lets make use of chips specific min, nom and max limits always. This patch helps to improve the connection stability in congested networks.
