The TX/RX work structures must be able to run independently of other workqueues. This is because mac80211 might use the flush() callback function from various context, which depends on the TX/RX work to complete while the main thread is blocked (until the the TX queues are empty). This should reduce the number of 'Queue %d failed to flush' warnings. Signed-off-by:

Both rt61pci and rt73usb check the Michael MIC in hardware and strip the Michael MIC from received frames. This is perfectly allowed by mac80211 as long as this is properly reported to mac80211. Both these drivers reported the Michael MIC handling properly to mac80211, but still contained a FIXME comment on this, which is not needed to be handled, since mac80211 doesn't really need the Michael MIC in this case.

Use the specific mac field of the wcid_entry structure to copy the MAC address to, instead of just overwriting the structure. Previous code resulted in the same, but this form is cleaner. Signed-off-by:

As reported and found by Johannes Stezenbach: rt2800{pci,usb} do not report the Michael MIC in RXed frames, but do check the Michael MIC in hardware. Therefore we have to report to mac80211 that the received frame does not include the Michael MIC. Signed-off-by: -

Fix interrupt processing on slow machines by using individual tasklets for each different device interrupt. This ensures that while a RX or TX status tasklet is scheduled only the according device interrupt is masked and other interrupts such as TBTT can still be processed. Also, this allows us to use tasklet_hi_schedule for TBTT processing which is required to not send out beacons with a wrong DTIM count (due to delayed periodic beacon updates). Furthermore, this improves the latency between the TBTT and sending out buffered multi- and broadcast traffic. As a nice bonus, the interrupt handling overhead should be much lower. Compile-tested only. Signed-off-by:

No functional changes, just preparation for moving interrupt handling to tasklets. The tasklets are disabled by default. Drivers making use of them need to enable the tasklets when the device state is set to IRQ_ON. Signed-off-by:

Allow the beacondone and pretbtt functions to update the beacon from atomic context by using the beacon update functions with caller locking. This is a preparation for moving the periodic beacon handling into tasklets that require atomic context. Signed-off-by:

Helmut Schaa authored
Currently there are two places that trigger a beacon update on PCI devices. The bss_info_changed callback and the periodic update triggered by the TBTT or PRETBTT interrupt. Since the next TBTT or PRETBTT interrupt will periodically fetch an updated beacon remove the update_beacon call in the bss_info_changed callback for PCI devices. In the worst case it will take one beacon interval longer to fetch the new beacon then before. For devices that have a PRETBTT interrupt there should be no change at all. Signed-off-by:

Introduce a beacon_update_locked function that does not acquire the according beacon mutex to allow beacon updates from atomic context. The caller has to take care of synchronization. No functional changes. Just preparation for beacon updates from tasklet context. Signed-off-by:

This patch allows to dynamically remove beaconing interfaces without shutting beaconing down on all interfaces. The only place to start and stop beaconing are now the start- and stop_queue callbacks. Hence, we can remove some register writes during interface bring up (config_intf) and only write the correct sync mode to the register there. When multiple beaconing interfaces are present we should enable beaconing as soon as mac80211 enables beaconing on at least one of them. The beacon queue gets stopped when the last beaconing interface was stopped by mac80211. Therefore, introduce another interface counter to keep track ot the number of enabled beaconing interfaces and start or stop the beacon queue accordingly. To allow single interfaces to stop beaconing, add a new driver callback clear_beacon to clear a single interface's beacon without affecting the other interfaces. Don't overload the clear_entry callback for clearing beacons as that would introduce additional overhead (check for each TX queue) into the clear_entry callback which is used on the drivers TX/RX hotpaths. Furthermore, the write beacon callback doesn't need to enable beaconing anymore but since beaconing should be disabled while a new beacon is written or cleared we still disable beacon generation and enable it afterwards again in the driver specific callbacks. However, beacon related interrupts should not be disabled/enabled here, that's solely done from the start- and stop queue callbacks. It would be nice to stop the beacon queue just before the beacon update and enable it afterwards in rt2x00queue itself instead of the current implementation that relies on the driver doing the right thing. However, since start- and stop_queue are mutex protected we cannot use them for atomic beacon updates. Signed-off-by:

Stanislaw Gruszka authored
Mac80211 can request for tx power and channel change in one ->config call. If that happens, *_send_tx_power functions will try to setup tx power for old channel, what can be not correct because we already change the band. I.e error "Failed to get channel info for channel 140 [0]", can be printed frequently when operating in software scanning mode. Signed-off-by:

genlmsg_cancel subtracts some constants from its second argument before calling nlmsg_cancel. nlmsg_cancel then calls nlmsg_trim on the same arguments. nlmsg_trim tests for NULL before doing any computation, but a NULL second argument to genlmsg_cancel is no longer NULL due to the initial subtraction. Nothing else happens in this execution, so the call to genlmsg_cancel is simply unnecessary in this case. The semantic match that finds this problem is as follows: (http://coccinelle.lip6.fr/) // <smpl> @@ expression data; @@ if (data == NULL) { ... * genlmsg_cancel(..., data); ... return ...; } // </smpl> Signed-off-by:

The register definition for retry configuration on AR5212 was wrong, and simply copied over from AR5210. Update the register definitions from the documentation. Let the short and long retries be configured from mac80211 and use the standard values of 7 and 4 by default. Also we need to make sure we don't export more retries than we are configured for to mac80211 (and the rate module) in hw->max_rate_tries. Also clean up the code by removing unused defines and variables and drop the different values for "station retries" - if these need to be different it can be handled tru ah_retry_long/short.
