This patch fixes a few shortcomings in the tx path. * move temp. ampdu_[ack]_len out of txinfo->pad. * fix WARN_ON from tx.c:line 300 when tx_ampdu_queue fails to queue the frame. * In tx_prepare, we already have a local pointer to the station's ieee80211_sta struct. * remove a second !sta check, tx_prepare already takes care of that.

crypto_free_cipher() is a wrapper around crypto_free_tfm() which is a wrapper around crypto_destroy_tfm() and the latter can handle being passed a NULL pointer, so checking for NULL in the ieee80211_aes_key_free()/ieee80211_aes_cmac_key_free() wrappers around crypto_free_cipher() is pointless and just increase object code size needlesly and makes us execute extra test/branch instructions that we don't need. Btw; don't we have to many wrappers around wrappers ad nauseam here? Anyway, this patch removes the redundant conditionals. Signed-off-by: Jesper Juhl <jj@chaosbits.net> Signed-off-by: John W.

The BSSID register shouldn't be set in AP mode on some older devices (like rt73usb) as it breaks hw crypto on these. However, rt2800 devices explicitly need the BSSID register set to the same value as our own MAC address (only in AP mode). Hence, don't set the BSSID from rt2x00lib but move it down into rt2800 to avoid problems on older devices. This fixes a regression (at least for rt73usb) and avoids a new regression for rt2800 devices in 2.6.36.

By not scheduling the TX/RX completion worker threads when Radio is disabled, or hardware has been unplugged, the queues cannot be completely cleaned. This causes crashes when the hardware has been unplugged while the radio is still enabled.

Implement a basic flush callback function, which simply loops over all TX queues and waits until all frames have been transmitted and the status reports have been gathered. At this moment we don't support dropping any frames during the flush, but mac80211 will only send 'false' for this argument anyway, so this is not important at this time.

When the TX status handler failed to clear the queue in rt2x00usb_watchdog_tx_dma() we shouldn't use a failsave to use the rt2x00usb txdone handler. If a driver has overriden the txdone handler it must make sure the txdone handler is capable of cleaning up the queue itself.

The tx descriptor values qid, cw_min, cw_max and aifs are directly accessible through the tx entry struct. So there's no need to copy them into the tx descriptor and passing them to the indiviual drivers. Instead we can just get the correct value from the tx entry.

All rt2x00 devices used the same Tx and Rx ring size (24 entries) till now. Newer devices (like rt2800) can however make use of a larger TX and RX ring due to 11n capabilities (AMPDUs of size 64 for example). Hence, bring rt2x00 in sync with the legacy drivers and use the same TX and RX ring sizes. Also remove the global defines RX_ENTRIES, TX_ENTRIES, BEACON_ENTRIES and ATIM_ENTRIES and use per driver values. That is 24 entries for rt2400pci, 32 entries for rt2500pci, rt2500usb, rt61pci and rt73usb and 128 (RX) and 64 (TX) for rt2800pci and rt2800usb.

Felix Fietkau authored
The current ath9k tx queue handling code showed a few issues that could lead to locking issues, tx stalls due to stopped queues, and maybe even DMA issues. The main source of these issues is that in some places the queue is selected via skb queue mapping in places where this mapping may no longer be valid. One such place is when data frames are transmitted via the CAB queue (for powersave buffered frames). This is made even worse by a lookup WMM AC values from the assigned tx queue (which is undefined for the CAB queue). This messed up the pending frame counting, which in turn caused issues with queues getting stopped, but not woken again. To fix these issues, this patch removes an unnecessary abstraction separating a driver internal queue number from the skb queue number (not to be confused with the hardware queue number). It seems that this abstraction may have been necessary because of tx queue preinitialization from the initvals. This patch avoids breakage here by pushing the software <-> hardware queue mapping to the function that assigns the tx queues and redefining the WMM AC definitions to match the numbers used by mac80211 (also affects ath9k_htc). To ensure consistency wrt. pending frame count tracking, these counters are moved to the ath_txq struct, updated with the txq lock held, but only where the tx queue selected by the skb queue map actually matches the tx queue used by the driver for the frame.

The Mandriva patch seems to stem from 2.6.14, so much for their upstreaming effort. Didn't find another Linux reference of it, just an omnious "USB\VID_1044&PID_8004" from GigabyteZD1201U.INF for Gigabyte GN-WLBZ101 802.11b USB Adapter, which matches the Mandriva patch comment. Aboves file also lists an "USB\VID_1044&PID_8006", which I have kept appart as this "Gigabyte GN-WBZB-M 802.11b USB Adapter" didn't show up in googling.

Current 8187B initialization misses anaparam registers restore after 8187 reset. This causes ANAPARAM register to stay zeroed out (ANAPARAM2 kept its value on my tests). To avoid this, call rtl8187_set_anaparam right after chip reset (to be on the safe side, as it makes sure we restore all ANAPARAM registers).

Usually you set RTL818X_CONFIG3_ANAPARAM_WRITE when you are going to change/write ANAPARAM registers.

The GNTSel bit should only concern pci devices by looking at RTL8180 spec, which is not the case of 8187B. Also testing shows that trying to set this bit fails, a subsequent read from the register after trying to set it shows that the bit isn't set, seems the hardware ignores it, which makes sense.

This patch fixes a possible lengthy stall if the device is operating as an experimental 11n AP and an STA [during heavy txrx action] suddenly signalized to go off-channel (old NetworkManager), or (sleep - which is unlikely, because then it wouldn't be *active* at all!?). Because the driver has to manage the BA Window, the sudden PSM transition can leave active uplink BA sessions to the STA in a bad state and a proper cleanup is needed.
