* The beaconing status routine is not required, since in multi-VIF cases the HW beacon parameters should not be re-configured. * Remove SC_OP_TSF_RESET - when a beaconing interface comes up the first time, the TSF has to be reset. * Simplify ath9k_allow_beacon_config(). * Handle setting/clearing the SWBA interrupt properly. * Remove the TSF mangling in IBSS mode, it is not required. * General code cleanup.

* Do not set/clear TSF when adding/deleting an interface. This should be done when the BSS is set up and should also take into account the existence of other interfaces. * Set opmode explicitly. * ANI setup needs to be decided based on multiple interfaces. This can be done via the bss_info_changed() callback. Signed-off-by: Sujith Manoharan <c_manoha@qca.qualcomm.com> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>

This patch revamps interface addition and deletion and simplifies slot allocation. There is no need to setup the beacon buffer in add/remove interface, remove this and use simple APIs for assigning/deleting slots.

We found a deadlock in the handling of command failures/reset conditions. For example: 1. Two commands are in the queue. 2. The first command is sent, but causes a timeout, which kicks off an asynchronous device reset 3. The second command is queued (but not yet sent to the hardware) 4. The device reset kicks in, causing the if_usb disconnect handler to set the "surprise removed" flag to be set as the device disappears from the bus. This causes lbs_thread to stop processing things ("adapter removed; waiting to die"), not processing any further commands, leaving the second queued command "in the air", causing a deadlock. Fix this by removing the surpriseremoved flag setting in if_usb. I can't see any reason why this needs to be done so early. lbs_remove_card will set this flag at an appropriate time - i.e. after all pending commands have been completed or cancelled, avoiding this deadlock.

Fail commands immediately when the request cannot be sent to the hardware. This solves the following deadlock: 1. Two commands are in the queue. 2. The first command is sent, but causes a timeout, which kicks off an asynchronous device reset 3. The second command is submitted to the device, and fails. The failure is noted but the existing code waits for the timeout handler to take care of the failure. 4. The device reset kicks in, causing the device "surprise removed" flag to be set as the device disappears from the bus. 5. lbs_thread notes this and enters "adapter removed; waiting to die" mode, without processing any further command timeouts. While adjusting lbs thread logic to handle this situation may be one way to fix this, it seems more practical to simplify handling of host_to_card failure so that the commands are failed immediately without waiting for more compliated timeout logic to kick in.

If the aggregate size exceeds the TXOP limit, it leads to lots of unnecessary hardware and software retries. The previous 4ms frame limit table was completely undocumented, the commit that updated it only vaguely referenced and equation from the standard, but I've been unable to replicate its results. Fix this by using a formula based on the code in ath_pkt_duration, which is more likely to be correct for this case.

In all those years apparently nobody noticed that the txop limit programmed into the chip was off by a factor of 32 (!), probably because the VI and VO queues aren't used that much aside from mgmt frames on VO.

This patch configures data rates to firmware using bitrate mask provided by cfg80211. Earlier we used to only update band information in this handler which will be used later for ibss network.

In mwifiex_set_rf_channel() ibss specific flags were unnecessarily getting modified for infra and AP mode. This patch removes mwifiex_set_rf_channel() function and adds equivalant code in infra, ibss and AP path. For ibss, now we are chosing band based on channel type and basic rates provided in ibss join request. We can start ibss network in A only, B only, G only, BG, BGN, AN mode.

1) Recently we removed set_channel cfg80211 handler. Also, cfg80211 blocks ibss connection requests if ibss network is already started /joined. Hence the code to restart ibss network in new channel (mwifiex_drv_change_adhoc_chan() function) becomes redundant. 2) mwifiex_bss_set_channel() function is redundant. It does some error checking and calculate adhoc start band and adhoc channel. Cfg80211 already takes care of error checking and provides correct channel information to the driver. Adhoc start band is already calculated in mwifiex_set_rf_channel() function. Other associated code is also removed in this patch.

Commit d83579e2 incorporated some changes from the vendor driver that made it newly important that the calculated hardware version correctly include the CHIP_92D bit, as all of the IS_92D_* macros were changed to depend on it. However, this bit was being unset for dual-mac, dual-phy devices. The vendor driver behavior was modified to not do this, but unfortunately this change was not picked up along with the others. This caused scanning in the 2.4GHz band to be broken, and possibly other bugs as well. This patch brings the version calculation logic in parity with the vendor driver in this regard, and in doing so fixes the regression. However, the version calculation code in general continues to be largely incoherent and messy, and needs to be cleaned up.

on disassoc, ieee80211_set_disassoc() goes out of PS before indicating BSS_CHANGED_ASSOC (not sure why this is needed, but some drivers might count on the current behavior). However, it does it after sending the disassoc frame, which results in null-data frame being sent (in order to go out of ps) after we were already sent the disassoc, which is invalid. Fix it by going out of ps before sending the disassoc. Signed-off-by: Eliad Peller <eliad@wizery.com> Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>

Cellular base stations can provide hints to cfg80211 about where they think we are. This can be done for example on a cell phone. To enable these hints we simply allow them through as user regulatory hints but we allow userspace to clasify the hint as either coming directly from the user or coming from a cellular base station. This option is only available when you enable CONFIG_CFG80211_CERTIFICATION_ONUS. The base station hints themselves will not be processed by the core unless at least one device on the system supports this feature. Signed-off-by: Luis R.

This adds CONFIG_CFG80211_CERTIFICATION_ONUS which is to be used for features / code which require a bit of work on the system integrator's part to ensure that the system will still pass 802.11 regulatory certification. This option is also usable for researchers and experimenters looking to add code in the kernel without impacting compliant code. We'd use CONFIG_EXPERT alone but it seems that most standard Linux distributions are enabling CONFIG_EXPERT already. This allows us to define 802.11 specific kernel features under a flag that is intended by design to be disabled by standard Linux distributions, and only enabled by system integrators or distributions that have done work to ensure regulatory certification on the system with the enabled features.

While adding regulatory support to ath6kl I noticed that I easily got the regulatory code confused. The way to reproduce the bug was: 1. iw reg set FI (in userspace) 2. cfg80211 calls ath6kl_reg_notify(FI) 3. ath6kl sets regdomain in firmware 4. firmware sends regdomain event to notify about the new regdomain (FI) 5. ath6kl calls regulatory_hint(FI) And this (from FI to FI transition) confuses cfg80211 and after that I only get "Pending regulatory request, waiting for it to be processed...." messages and regdomain changes won't work anymore. The reason why ath6kl calls regulatory_hint() is that firmware can change the regulatory domain by it's own, for example due to 11d IEs. I could of course workaround this in ath6kl but I think it's better to handle the case in cfg80211. The fix is pretty simple, use a different error code if the regdomain is same and then just set the request processed so that it doesn't block new requests.
