It does not make much sense to keep the current virtual wiphy implementation any longer - it adds significant complexity, has very few users and is still very experimental. At some point in time, it will be replaced by a proper implementation in mac80211. By making the code easier to read and maintain, removing virtual wiphy support helps with fixing the remaining driver issues and adding further improvements.

Instead of spreading ath_wake_mac80211_queue() calls over multiple places in the tx path that process the tx queue for completion, call it only where the pending frames counter gets decremented, eliminating some redundant checks. To prevent queue draining from waking the queues prematurely (e.g. during a hardware reset), reset the queue stop state when draining all queues, as the caller in main.c will run ieee80211_wake_queues(hw) anyway.

The commit 'ath9k: Add more information to debugfs xmit file.' added more debug counters to ath9k and also added some lines of code to ath9k_hw. Since ath9k_hw is also used by ath9k_htc, its code must not depend on ath9k data structures. In this case it was not fatal, but it's still wrong, so the code needs to be moved back to ath9k.

We need to read and backup AR_WA register value permanently and reading this after the chip is awakened results in this register being zeroed out. This seems to fix the ASPM with L1 enabled issue that we have observed. The laptop becomes very slow and hangs mostly with ASPM L1 enabled without this fix.

There are few places where we are checking for macversion and revsions before RTC is powered ON. However we are reading the macversion and revisions only after RTC is powered ON and so both macversion and revisions are actully zero and this leads to incorrect srev checks Incorrect srev checks can cause registers to be configured wrongly and can cause unexpected behavior. Fixing this seems to address the ASPM issue that we have observed. The laptop becomes very slow and hangs mostly with ASPM L1 enabled without this fix. fix this by reading the macversion and revisisons even before we start using them. There is no reason why should we delay reading this info until RTC is powered on as this is just a register information.

The passive scan channel dwell time currently used is 30-60TU. A typical beacon interval for AP's is 100TU. This leads to a ~30% worst-case probability of finding an AP via passive scanning. For 5GHz bands for DFS frequencies passive scanning is the only scanning option. Hence for these, the probability of finding an AP is very low. To fix this, increase the passive channel scan dwell times (also the early leave value, as 5GHz channels are still typically very silent.) Use a value of 100TU, because that covers most typical AP configurations. Based on testing the probability of finding an AP (100TU beacon interval) on a single scan round are as follows (based on 100 iterations): dwell min/max (TU) | probability ---------------------+------------ 30/60 | 35% 60/60 | 56% 80/80 | 77% 100/100 | 100% Total scan times now and after the change: Region | Before (s) | After (s) -------+------------+---------- 00 | 0.77 | 1.48 FI | 0.95 | 2.01 US | 0.91 | 1.76 Signed-off-by: Juuso Oikarinen <juuso.oikarinen@nokia.com> Reviewed-by: Luciano Coelho <coelho@ti.com> Signed-off-by: Luciano Coelho <coelho@ti.com>

PLT mode start/stop is controlled from userspace. When removing module, the PLT mode state is however not checked, and not cleared. There is the possibility of some unwanted state to left linger and there is even the possiblity of a kernel crash if for instance IRQ work is running when the module is removed. Fix this by stopping PLT mode on module removal, if still running.

When 11a is not supported, we were modifying the global structure that contains the bands supported by the driver. This causes problems when having more one wl12xx device in the same system because they all use the same global. This also causes problems when the wl12xx_sdio module is removed and the wl12xx module remains. Fix this problem by copying the band structure into the wl12xx instance.
