Add wrappers to send commands from the DVM op-mode (which essentially consists of the current driver). This will allow us to move specific sanity checks there. Also, this removes iwl_trans_send_cmd_pdu() since that can now be taken care of in the DVM-specific wrapper.

This file was recently introduced, but then directly abused -- it contained private data that shouldn't have been used by anything but the implementation of firmware requests and some very core code. Now that it is no longer accessed by any code but the code in iwl-drv.c, we can dissolve it. Also rename the iwl_nic struct to iwl_drv to better reflect where and how it is used.

Through the driver, struct iwl_fw will store the firmware. Split this out into a separate file, iwl-fw.h, and make all other code use it. To do this, also move the log pointers into it, and remove the knowledge of "nic" from everything. Now the op_mode has a fw pointer, and (unfortunately) for now the shared data also needs to keep one for the transport to access dump the error log -- I think that will move later. Since I wanted to constify the firmware pointers, some more changes were needed.

uCode loading belongs to the op_mode, as it is dependent on various things there and the commands sent during it are specific to it. Move the prototypes to iwl-agn.h to indicate this. To make this possible, also move all the calibration handling (which is op_mode dependent after all).

On A-MPDU frames, the hardware only reports valid signal strength data for the last subframe. The driver also mangled rx_stats->rs_rssi using the ATH_EP_RND macro in a way that may make sense for ANI, but definitely not for reporting to mac80211. This patch changes the code to calculate the signal strength from the rssi directly instead of taking the average value, and flag everything but the last subframe in an A-MPDU to tell mac80211 to ignore the signal strength entirely, fixing signal strength fluctuation issues reported by various users.

The way this is implemented (simply storing the last value) is absolutely worthless for debugging anything, and the same information is also available through the MAC sample feature, so there's no point in keeping this around.

mac80211 is lenient with respect to reception of corrupted beacons. Even if the frame is corrupted as a whole, the available IE elements are still passed back and accepted, sometimes replacing legitimate data. It is unknown to what extent this "feature" is made use of, but it is clear that in some cases, this is detrimental. One such case is reported in http://crosbug.com/26832 where an AP corrupts its beacons but not its probe responses. One approach would be to completely reject frames with invaid data (for example, if the last tag extends beyond the end of the enclosing PDU). The enclosed approach is much more conservative: we simply prevent later IEs from overwriting the state from previous ones. This approach hopes that there might be some salient data in the IE stream before the corruption, and seeks to at least prevent that data from being overwritten. This approach will fix the case above. Further, we flag element structures that contain data we think might be corrupted, so that as we fill the mac80211 BSS structure, we try not to replace data from an un-corrupted probe response with that of a corrupted beacon, for example. Short of any statistics gathering in the various forms of AP breakage, it's not possible to ascertain the side effects of more stringent discarding of data.

Wireless Broadcom chips can have either their SPROM data stored on either external SPROM or on-chip OTP memory. Both are accessed through the same register space. This patch adds support for the on-chip OTP memory. Tested with: BCM43224 OTP and SPROM BCM4331 SPROM BCM4313 OTP This patch is in response to linux-wireless thread [1].

All other Atheros drivers run the AGC gain calibration and DC offset calibration only after reset. Running them periodically has caused stability issues on some (primarily AR2315/2413/5413/5414 based) devices, leading to messages such as: ath5k phy0: gain calibration timeout (2462MHz) ath5k phy0: calibration of channel 11 failed Related bug reports: https://dev.openwrt.org/ticket/10574 https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=795141Signed-off-by: Felix Fietkau <nbd@openwrt.org> Acked-by: Nick Kossifidis <mickflemm@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: John W.

Some calibration types interfere with tx activity, but the queue stop does not prevent that. In fact, some calibration types need tx activity to properly function, so stopping the queues for them is counterproductive. In some tests this patch has been shown to improve stability, especially in AP or ad-hoc mode.
