2011-02-04ath9k: add additional checks for the baseband hang detectionFelix Fietkau
Since even with the latest changes the false positive issue of the baseband hang check is not fully solved yet, additional checks are needed. If the baseband hang occurs, the rx_clear signal will be stuck to high, so we can use the cycle counters to confirm it. With this patch, a hardware reset is only triggered if the baseband hang check returned true three times in a row, with a beacon interval between each check and if the busy time was also 99% or more during the check intervals.

2011-02-04ath: Fix clearing of secondary key cache entry for TKIPJouni Malinen
All register writes to the key cache have to be done in pairs. However, the clearing of a separate MIC entry with hardware revisions that use combined MIC key layout did not do that with one of the registers. Add the matching register write to the following register to make the KEY4 register write actually complete. This is mostly a fix for a theoretical issue since the incorrect entry that could potentially be left behind in the key cache would not match with received frames. Anyway, better make this code clean the entry correctly using paired register writes. Signed-off-by: Jouni Malinen <jouni.malinen@atheros.com> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>

2011-02-04zd1211rw: lower hw command timeoutsJussi Kivilinna
Device command timeouts are set up very high (1 sec) and this causes AP beacon to lock up for long for example.

2011-02-04zd1211rw: batch beacon config commands togetherJussi Kivilinna
Beacon config function writes beacon to hw one write per byte. This is very slow (usually taking more than 100ms to finish) and causes high CPU usage when in AP-mode (kworker at ~50% on Intel Atom N270). By batching commands together zd_mac_config_beacon() runtime can be lowered to 1/5th and lower CPU usage to saner levels (<10% on Atom).

2011-02-04zd1211rw: add beacon watchdog and setting HW beacon more failsafeJussi Kivilinna
When doing tx/rx at high packet rate (for example simply using ping -f), device starts to fail to respond to control messages. On non-AP modes this only causes problems for LED updating code but when we are running in AP-mode we are writing new beacon to HW usually every 100ms. Now if control message fails in HW beacon setup, device lock is kept locked and beacon data partially written. This can and usually does cause: 1. HW beacon setup fail now on, as driver cannot acquire device lock. 2. Beacon-done interrupt stop working as device has incomplete beacon. Therefore make zd_mac_config_beacon() always try to release device lock and add beacon watchdog to restart beaconing when stall is detected. Also fix zd_mac_config_beacon() try acquiring device lock for max 500ms, as what old code appeared to be trying to do using loop and msleep(1).

2011-02-04zd1211rw: fix ack_pending in filter_ack causing tx-packet ordering problem ↵Jussi Kivilinna
on monitor For reasons not very clear yet to me, filter_ack leaves matching tx-packet pending with 'ack_pending'. This causes tx-packet to be passed back to upper layer after next packet has been transfered and tx-packets might end up coming come out of monitor interface in wrong order vs. rx. Because of this when enable AP-mode, hostapd monitor interface would get packets in wrong order causing problems in WPA association. So don't use mac->ack_pending when in AP-mode.

2011-02-04zd1211rw: fix beacon interval setupJussi Kivilinna
Vendor driver uses CR_BNC_INTERVAL at various places, one is HW_EnableBeacon() that combinies beacon interval with BSS-type flag and DTIM value in upper 16bit of u32. The other one is HW_UpdateBcnInterval() that set_aw_pt_bi() appears to be based on. HW_UpdateBcnInterval() takes interval argument as u16 and uses that for calculations, set_aw_pt_bi() uses u32 value that has flags and dtim in upper part. This clearly seems wrong. Also HW_UpdateBcnInterval() updates only lower 16bit part of CR_BNC_INTERVAL. So make set_aw_pt_bi() do calculations on only lower u16 part of s->beacon_interval. Also set 32bit beacon interval register before reading values from device, as HW_EnableBeacon() on vendor driver does. This is required to make beacon work on AP-mode, simply reading and then writing updated values is not enough at least with zd1211b.

2011-02-04zd1211rw: use urb anchors for tx and fix tx-queue disablingJussi Kivilinna
When stress testing AP-mode I hit OOPS when unpluging or rmmodding driver. It appears that when tx-queue is disabled, tx-urbs might be left pending. These can cause ehci to call non-existing tx_urb_complete() (after rmmod) or uninitialized/reseted private structure (after disconnect()). Add skb queue for submitted packets and unlink pending urbs on zd_usb_disable_tx(). Part of the problem seems to be usb->free_urb_list that isn't always working as it should, causing machine freeze when trying to free the list in zd_usb_disable_tx(). Caching free urbs isn't what other drivers seem to be doing (usbnet for example) so strip free_usb_list. Patch makes tx-urb handling saner with use of urb anchors.

2011-02-03wl1251: fix 4-byte TX buffer alignmentDavid Gnedt
This implements TX buffer alignment for cloned or too small skb by copying and replacing the original skb. Recent changes in wireless-testing seems to make this really necessary.

2011-02-03wl1251: fix queue stopping/waking for TX pathDavid Gnedt
The queue stopping/waking functionality was broken in a way that could cause the TX to stall if the right circumstances are met. The problem was caused by tx_work, which is scheduled on each TX operation. If the firmware buffer is full, tx_work does nothing. In combinition with stopped queues or non-continues transfers, tx_work is never scheduled again. Moreover the low watermark introduced by 9df86e2e702c6d5547aced7f241addd2d698bb11 never takes effect because of some old code. Solve this by scheduling tx_work every time tx_queue is non-empty and firmware buffer is freed on tx_complete. This also solves a possible but unlikely case: If less frames than the high watermark are queued, but more than firmware buffer can hold. This results in queues staying awake but the only scheduled tx_work doesn't transfer all frames, so the remaining frames are stuck in the queue until more frames get queued and tx_work is scheduled again.

2011-02-03libertas: Prepare stuff for if_spi.c pm supportVasily Khoruzhick
To support suspend/resume in if_spi we need two things: - re-setup fw in lbs_resume(), because if_spi powercycles card; - don't touch hwaddr on second lbs_update_hw_spec() call for same reason; Signed-off-by: Vasily Khoruzhick <anarsoul@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: John W.

2011-02-03libertas_spi: Use workqueue in hw_host_to_cardVasily Khoruzhick
Use workqueue to perform SPI xfers, it's necessary to fix nasty "BUG: scheduling while atomic", because spu_write() calls spi_sync() and spi_sync() may sleep, but hw_host_to_card() callback can be called from atomic context. Remove kthread completely, workqueue now does its job. Restore intermediate buffers which were removed in commit 86c34fe89e9cad9e1ba4d1a8bbf98259035f4caf that introduced mentioned bug.

wl1251_op_bss_info_changed() In drivers/net/wireless/wl1251/main.c:wl1251_op_bss_info_changed() we make a call to ieee80211_beacon_get() which may return NULL, but we do not check the return value before dereferencing the pointer.

6250 2x2 devices have 2 tx chain and 2 rx chain. For some reason, the EEPROM contain incorrect information and indicate it only has single tx chain. overwrite it with .cfg parameter to make sure both chain 'A' and chain 'B' can be used for transmit and receive Signed-off-by: Wey-Yi Guy <wey-yi.w.guy@intel.com> Signed-off-by: John W.
