rt2800pci is suffering from beacon skew in AP mode. Some powersaving clients (like VOIP phones) are getting into trouble after some time when the beacon skew is getting too big. The ralink legacy drivers contain a function that indicates that the beacon timer is off by 1us per tbtt. And this function works around that by reducing the beacon interval for every 64th beacon transmission by 64us (the smallest possible value). Do the same in rt2800pci. This allows proper powersaving when rt2800pci is used in AP mode. Signed-off-by: Helmut Schaa <helmut.schaa@googlemail.com> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>

Disable multi stream rates (MCS > 7) when a STA is in static SMPS mode since it has only one active rx chain. Hence, it doesn't even make sense to sample multi stream rates. Signed-off-by: Helmut Schaa <helmut.schaa@googlemail.com> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>

As we've discussed, we want to avoid channel changes while associated. While the part when we actually associate needs a bit more work, the bit that happens on disassociating can be changed quite easily. Move the channel type change later in the disassociate process to set the channel only after the driver was told that it's now disassociated. As the driver could expect powersave to be enabled only when associated, this thus results in splitting the config call, but overall what happens makes more sense this way.

While setting up or tearing down a BA session mac80211 is buffering pending frames for the according TID. However, there's currently no limit on how many frames are buffered possibly leading to an out-of- memory situation. This can happen on systems with little memory when the CPU is fully loaded since the BA session work is executed in process context while frames can still come via softirq. Apply a limitation to the TIDs pending queue to avoid consuming too much memory in this situation. Signed-off-by: Helmut Schaa <helmut.schaa@googlemail.com> Signed-off-by: John W.

Emmanuel Grumbach authored
in iwlwifi: move setting up fw parameters Meenakshi moved code up to configure the transport layer, but this code read the sku before it was set (from the EEPROM). This killed P2P. Only the ucode_flags are needed to configure the transport layer, not the sku which _must_ be set after the EEPROM is read. We need to reconfigure the transport in case the EEPROM disabled PAN support. This is not the nicest thing to do, but we have no choice. Document that we are allowed to configure the transport several times before start_fw, but not after.

With the mac80211 deauth sequence changes, the station is deleted before the device is set unassociated. This can cause the device to get confused as it expects the station to be there while the associated bit is set. To fix this, do not delete the AP station from the device when mac80211 asks for deletion, instead just mark it as unused and rely on the unassociated RXON to drop it from the station database in the device.

wmb(), rmb() are not needed when writel(), readl() are used as accessors for MMIO. We use them indirectly via iowrite32(), ioread32(). What is needed mmiowb(), for synchronizing writes coming from different CPUs on PCIe bridge (see in patch comments). This fortunately is not needed on x86, where mmiowb() is just defined as compiler barrier. As iwlwifi devices are most likely not used on anything other than x86, this is not so important fix.
