When reconfiguring an interface due to a previous hardware restart, mac80211 will currently include the new IBSS flag on non-IBSS interfaces which may confuse drivers. Instead of doing the ~0 trick, simply spell out which things are going to be reconfigured. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes@sipsolutions.net> Signed-off-by: John W.

... so orinoco_usb can share some common functionality. Handle 802.2 encapsulation and MIC calculation in that function. The 802.3 header is prepended to the SKB. The calculated MIC is written to a specified buffer. Also modify the transmit control word that will be passed onto the hardware to specify whether the MIC is present, and the key used.

Atheros hardware supports receiving frames that span multiple descriptors and buffers. In this case, the rx status of every descriptor except for the last one is invalid and may contain random data. Because the driver does not support this, it needs to drop such frames. Signed-off-by: Felix Fietkau <nbd@openwrt.org> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>

This patch removes the incomplete AMPDU implementation in ar9170usb. The code in question is: * too big and complex (more than 550 SLOC.) This is enough to qualify for a new separate code file! * unbalanced quantity & quality over-engineered areas like: * xmit scheduling and queuing frames for multiple HT peers * redundant frame sorting are confronted by gaping holes: * accurate transmission feedback * firmware error-handling and device reset * HT rate control algorithm * error-prone Since its inclusion, hardly anything was done to fix any of the outlined flaws from the initial commit message. => This also indicates poor maintainability. * relies heavily on several spinlocks. As a result of this shortcomings, the code is slow and does not even support the most basic 11n requirement: HT station mode. Therefore, I request to purge my heap of **** from the kernel: "ar9170: implement transmit aggregation". The next item on the agenda is: (re-)start from scratch with an adequate design to accommodate the special requirements and features of the available frameworks and tools.

We currently have this check as a BUG_ON, which is being hit by people. Previously it was an error with a recalculation if not current, return that code. The BUG_ON was introduced by: commit 3110bef7 Author: Guy Cohen <guy.cohen@intel.com> Date: Tue Sep 9 10:54:54 2008 +0800 iwlwifi: Added support for 3 antennas ... the portion adding the BUG_ON is reverted since we are encountering the error and BUG_ON was created with assumption that error is not encountered.

When IBSS is fixed to a frequency, it can still scan to try to find the right BSSID. This makes sense if the BSSID isn't also fixed, but it need not scan all channels -- just one is sufficient. Make it do that by moving the scan setup code to ieee80211_request_internal_scan() and include a channel variable setting. Note that this can be further improved to start the IBSS right away if both frequency and BSSID are fixed. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com> Signed-off-by: John W.

This allows enabling TX and disabling both TX and RX aggregation sessions manually in debugfs. It is very useful for debugging session initiation and teardown problems since with this you don't have to force a lot of traffic to get aggregation and thus have less data to analyse. Also, to debug mac80211 code itself, make hwsim "support" aggregation sessions. It will still just transfer the frame, but go through the setup and teardown handshakes.

This driver uses the core orinoco modules for the bulk of the functionality. The low level hermes routines (for local bus cards) are replaced, the driver supplies its own ndo_xmit_start function, and locking is done with the _bh variant. Some recent functionality is not available to the USB cards yet (firmware loading and WPA). Out-of-tree driver originally written by Manuel Estrada Sainz. Thanks to Mark Davis for supplying hardware to test the updates. Signed-off-by: David Kilroy <kilroyd@googlemail.com> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>

Local bus and USB drivers will need to do locking differently. The original orinoco_usb patches had a boolean variable controlling whether spin_lock_bh was used, or irq based locking. This version provides wrappers for the lock functions and the drivers specify the functions pointers needed. This will introduce a performance penalty, but I'm not expecting it to be noticable.

The TX status code is currently abusing the ampdu_ack_map field (a bitmap) to count the number of successfully received frames. The comments in mac80211.h show there are actually three different, relevant variables, of which we are currently using two, both incorrectly. Fix this by making - ampdu_ack_len -> the number of ACKed frames (i.e. successes) - ampdu_ack_map -> the bitmap - ampdu_len -> the total number of frames sent (i.e., attempts) to match the header file (and verified with ath9k's usage) and updating Intel's RS code to match.

When starting an aggregation session, the swq_id is generated in function iwl_virtual_agg_queue_num() where the first parameter is supposed to be the Access Class, but it used the tx fifo ID instead. This means the AC value stored in swq_id is incorrect. To test this, look at the tx_queue file in debugfs while transmitting Best Effort flow (ac=2), it shows: hwq 10: read=0 write=0 stop=0 swq_id=0xa9 (ac 1/hwq 10) After this fix, it will show: hwq 10: read=0 write=0 stop=0 swq_id=0xaa (ac 2/hwq 10) Signed-off-by: Shanyu Zhao <shanyu.zhao@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Reinette Chatre <reinette.chatre@intel.com>

Some firmware versions don't behave properly when passive scanning is requested on radar channels without enabling active scanning on receiving a good frame. Work around that issue by asking the firmware to only enable the active scanning after receiving a huge number of good frames, a number that can never be reached during our dwell time.
