The primary purpose of this piece of code was to selectively disable OFDM weak signal detection. The checks for this are elsewhere, and an earlier commit relaxed the restrictions for older chips, which are more sensitive to interference.

commit 4c59ff22 "wireless: Kconfig: add missing dependency" added a number of 'depends on CFG80211' statements, but missed the AIRO_CS driver that also causes the airo.c file to be built.

The brcms_attach function is defined as static but the comment is saying that it should not be static or gcc will issue a warning.

When brcm80211 firmware is not installed networking hangs. A deadlock happens because we call ieee80211_unregister_hw() from the .start callback of struct ieee80211_ops. When .start is called we are under rtnl lock and ieee80211_unregister_hw() tries to take it again. Function call stack: dev_change_flags() __dev_change_flags() __dev_open() ASSERT_RTNL() <-- Assert rtnl lock ops->ndo_open() .ndo_open = ieee80211_open, ieee80211_open() ieee80211_do_open() drv_start() local->ops->start() .start = brcms_ops_start, brcms_ops_start() brcms_remove() ieee80211_unregister_hw() rtnl_lock() <-- Here we deadlock Introduced by: commit 25b5632f ("brcmsmac: request firmware in .start() callback") This patch fixes the bug by removing the call to brcms_remove() and moves the brcms_request_fw() call to the top of the .start callback to not initiate anything unless firmware is installed.

qi->tqi_readyTime is written directly to registers that expect microseconds as unit instead of TU. When setting the CABQ ready time, cur_conf->beacon_interval is in TU, so convert it to microseconds before passing it to ath9k_hw. This should hopefully fix some Tx DMA issues with buffered multicast frames in AP mode. Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org Signed-off-by: Felix Fietkau <nbd@openwrt.org> Signed-off-by: John W.

Currently a "r8185" integer variable is used as a boolean flag to indicate whether the card is a rtl8185 or not. Since now the driver supports only rtl8185 and rtl8180 cards, if "r8185" variable is zero then the card is implicitly assumed to be a rtl8180. Now I'm preparing to add support for a third card type (rtl8187se). This patch changes the "r8185" flag with an enum variable to explicitly indicate which card type we have. I'm submitting this this patch now, even if I still have to submit other patches that not pertain with rtl8187se support, because IMHO it's not worth rebasing them on the current code, using r8185 flag, and then changing them back again nearly immediately. BTW if someone feels I really should do this, please tell me.. Signed-off-by: Andrea Merello <andrea.merello@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>

Currently AMPDU aggregation is preferred over AMSDU. AMSDU aggregation is performed only if AMPDU streams in firmware are full. This patch adds simultaneous AMSDU and AMPDU aggregation support. This mechanism helps to improve throughput. AMSDU is enabled only for 8897 chipsets which supports 4K transmit buffer. User can disable AMSDU using 'disable_tx_amsdu' module parameter.

Commit a619d1ab leads to the following static checker warning: drivers/net/wireless/rtlwifi/rtl8723be/phy.c:667 _rtl8723be_store_tx_power_by_rate() error: buffer overflow 'rtlphy->tx_power_by_rate_offset[band]' 4 <= 5 This warning arises because the code is testing the indices for the wrong maximum values. In addition, the tests merely putput a warning, and then procedes to corrupt memory. With this change, any such invalid memory access is avoided.

Seems like we have an old bug, where we incidently overwrites the max_antenna_gain we pass to firmware, with zero value. End of all we are artifically reducing the output power. This patch removes the excessive assignment on max_antenna_gain, which is being provided by regulatory domain, and consequently improves the tx power.

The intstatus in sdio code can be updated from different threads. To protect intstatus access, atomic functions are used. One of them is set_bit, but this function is not guaranteed atomic on all platforms. The loop was replaced with local created OR function.

iwlegacy version of this iwlwifi patch: commit aed7d9ac Author: Emmanuel Grumbach <emmanuel.grumbach@intel.com> Date: Wed Feb 20 11:33:00 2013 +0200 iwlwifi: disable 8K A-MSDU by default Supporting 8K A-MSDU means that we need to allocate order 1 pages for every Rx packet. Even when there is no traffic. This adds stress on the memory manager. The handling of compound pages is also less trivial for the memory manager and not using them will make the allocation code run faster although I didn't really measure. Eric also pointed out that having huge buffers with little data in them is not very nice towards the TCP stack since the truesize of the skb is huge. This doesn't allow TCP to have a big Rx window. See https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/2167711/ for details. Note that very few vendors will actually send A-MSDU. Disable this feature by default.
