The calculated values for the ACK timeout and ACK consume time are different then the values as used by the Legacy drivers. After testing from James Ledwith it appeared that the calculated values caused a high amount of TX failures, and the values from the Legacy drivers were the most optimal to prevent TX failure due to excessive retries. The symptoms of this problem: - Rate control module always falls back to 1Mbs - Low throughput when bitrate was fixed Possible side-effects (not confirmed but highly likely) - Problems with DHCP - Broken connections due to lack of probe response This should fix at least: Kernel bugzilla reports: [13362], [13009], [9273] Fedora bugzilla reports: [443203] but possible some additional bugs as well.

apply the conformance test limits (CTL) stored in the eeprom upon the values calculated for the tx power (ar->power_*). This is based on the implementation in the vendor driver (hal/hpmain.c, line 3700 ff.) with one difference: If any ctl mode isn't found in the eeprom, we fall back to the "lower", legacy modes (5GHT20,11A or 2GHT20,11G,11B). Otus only did 5GHT20->11A. Currently CTL are applied for the FCC group only. Signed-off-by: Joerg Albert <jal2@gmx.de> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>

Use a threaded IRQ handler to allow locking the mutex and sleeping while executing an interrupt. This removes usage of the irq_lock spinlock, but introduces a new hardirq_lock, which is _only_ used for the PCI/SSB lowlevel hard-irq handler. Sleeping busses (SDIO) will use mutex instead.

CHANNEL_G has to be set for 2GHZ channels since IS_CHAN_G() checks for this in channelFlags and not in chanmode. To make things messier, ath9k_hw_process_ini() checks for CHANNEL_G in chanmode and not in channelFlags. The supreme, brain-searing fix is to set the flag in both cases.

This patch adds a classful dummy scheduler which can be used as root qdisc for multiqueue devices and exposes each device queue as a child class. This allows to address queues individually and graft them similar to regular classes. Additionally it presents an accumulated view of the statistics of all real root qdiscs in the dummy root. Two new callbacks are added to the qdisc_ops and qdisc_class_ops: - cl_ops->select_queue selects the tx queue number for new child classes. - qdisc_ops->attach() overrides root qdisc device grafting to attach non-shared qdiscs to the queues.

Currently the multiqueue integration with the qdisc API suffers from a few problems: - with multiple queues, all root qdiscs use the same handle. This means they can't be exposed to userspace in a backwards compatible fashion. - all API operations always refer to queue number 0. Newly created qdiscs are automatically shared between all queues, its not possible to address individual queues or restore multiqueue behaviour once a shared qdisc has been attached. - Dumps only contain the root qdisc of queue 0, in case of non-shared qdiscs this means the statistics are incomplete. This patch reintroduces dev->qdisc, which points to the (single) root qdisc from userspace's point of view. Currently it either points to the first (non-shared) default qdisc, or a qdisc shared between all queues. The following patches will introduce a classful dummy qdisc, which will be used as root qdisc and contain the per-queue qdiscs as children.

Some schedulers don't support creating, changing or deleting classes. Make the respective callbacks optionally and consistently return -EOPNOTSUPP for unsupported operations, instead of currently either -EOPNOTSUPP, -ENOSYS or no error. In case of sch_prio and sch_multiq, the removed operations additionally checked for an invalid class. This is not necessary since the class argument can only orginate from ->get() or in case of ->change is 0 for creation of new classes, in which case ->change() incorrectly returned -ENOENT. As a side-effect, this patch fixes a possible (root-only) NULL pointer function call in sch_ingress, which didn't implement a so far mandatory ->delete() operation.

Since our TSN map is capable of holding at most a 4K chunk gap, there is no way that during this gap, a stream sequence number (unsigned short) can wrap such that the new number is smaller then the next expected one. If such a case is encountered, this is a protocol violation. Signed-off-by: Vlad Yasevich <vladislav.yasevich@hp.com>

This patch introduces a new sysctl option to make IPv4 Address Scoping configurable <draft-stewart-tsvwg-sctp-ipv4-00.txt>. In networking environments where DNAT rules in iptables prerouting chains convert destination IP's to link-local/private IP addresses, SCTP connections fail to establish as the INIT chunk is dropped by the kernel due to address scope match failure. For example to support overlapping IP addresses (same IP address with different vlan id) a Layer-5 application listens on link local IP's, and there is a DNAT rule that maps the destination IP to a link local IP. Such applications never get the SCTP INIT if the address-scoping draft is strictly followed. This sysctl configuration allows SCTP to function in such unconventional networking environments. Sysctl options: 0 - Disable IPv4 address scoping draft altogether 1 - Enable IPv4 address scoping (default, current behavior) 2 - Enable address scoping but allow IPv4 private addresses in init/init-ack 3 - Enable address scoping but allow IPv4 link local address in init/init-ack Signed-off-by: Bhaskar Dutta <bhaskar.dutta@globallogic.com> Signed-off-by: Vlad Yasevich <vladislav.yasevich@hp.com>

We used to perform 2 routing lookups for a new transport: one just for path mtu detection, and one to actually route to destination and path mtu update when sending a packet. There is no point in doing both of them, especially since the first one just for path mtu doesn't take into account source address and sometimes gives the wrong route, causing path mtu updates anyway. We now do just the one call to do both route to destination and get path mtu updates. Signed-off-by: Vlad Yasevich <vladislav.yasevich@hp.com>

We had a bug that we never stored the user-defined value for MAXSEG when setting the value on an association. Thus future PMTU events ended up re-writing the frag point and increasing it past user limit. Additionally, when setting the option on the socket/endpoint, we effect all current associations, which is against spec. Now, we store the user 'maxseg' value along with the computed 'frag_point'. We inherit 'maxseg' from the socket at association creation and use it as an upper limit for 'frag_point' when its set. Signed-off-by: Vlad Yasevich <vladislav.yasevich@hp.com>

SCTP will delay the last part of a large write due to NAGLE, if that part is smaller then MTU. Since we are doing large writes, we might as well send the last portion now instead of waiting untill the next large write happens. The small portion will be sent as is regardless, so it's better to not delay it. This is a result of much discussions with Wei Yongjun <yjwei@cn.fujitsu.com> and Doug Graham <dgraham@nortel.com>. Many thanks go out to them. Signed-off-by: Vlad Yasevich <vladislav.yasevich@hp.com>

The decision to delay due to Nagle should be based on the path mtu and future packet size. We currently incorrectly base it on 'frag_point' which is the SCTP DATA segment size, and also we do not count DATA chunk header overhead in the computation. This actuall allows situations where a user can set low 'frag_point', and then send small messages without delay. Signed-off-by: Vlad Yasevich <vladislav.yasevich@hp.com>

We currently set a_rwnd to 0 when faking a SACK from SHUTDOWN. This results in an hung association if the remote only uses SHUTDOWNs (which it's allowed to do) to acknowlege DATA when closing. The reason for that is that we simply honor the a_rwnd from the sack, but since we faked it to be 0, we enter 0-window probing. The fix is to use the peers old rwnd and add our flight size to it.

SCTP has a problem that when small chunks are used, it is possible to exhaust the receiver buffer without fully closing receive window. This happens due to all overhead that we have account for with small messages. To fix this, when receive buffer is exceeded, we'll drop the window to 0 and save the 'drop' portion. When application starts reading data and freeing up recevie buffer space, we'll wait until we've reached the 'drop' window and then add back this 'drop' one mtu at a time. This worked well in testing and under stress produced rather even recovery. Signed-off-by: Vlad Yasevich <vladislav.yasevich@hp.com>
