Currently, ampdu stream is created on the first qos packet to an HT sta. The overhead of setting up the BA session may not be justified if the outgoing packet rate is minimal (e.g., ping). So we only allow ampdu streams after seeing a critical number of packets in an arbitrary one-second interval.

Currently ath9k only available in menuconfig if PCI bus support is enabled. However the driver is required for the built-in wireless MACs of the Atheros AR9130/AR9132 SoCs. These SoCs have no PCI controller, the wireless MAC is connected to the AHB bus on them. Introduce separated config options for the supported buses, in order to allow building of ath9h without PCI bus support. As a bonus, this patch removes the cross-reference of the ATHEROS_AR71XX option which is not present in the kernel. Cc: Luis R.

We do not need to enable all the interrupts in mwl8k_probe_hw. We need to enable only MWL8K_A2H_INT_OPC_DONE interrupt for sending commands to the firmware. Keep the other interrupts masked in mwl8k_probe_hw. Also, in mwl8k_start, where we expect other interrupts, enable only those interrupts we are interested in.

Currently the device id in the platform driver is hardcoded to an id which is specific to AR9130/AR9132 SOCs as it supports only wmac (wireless mac) of these SOCs. But this needs to be dynamic when we want to support different wmac of SOCs. So add id_table to driver to make it extendable to more SOCs.

Check whether index is within bounds before testing the element Both spurChans arrays in modalHeader5G and modalHeader2G have 5 elements, AR_EEPROM_MODAL_SPURS is defined 5. So unless a break occurs, in the last iteration (i=5) we tried to access spurChansPtr[5] before testing whether i was within bounds. Fix this.

ath5k uses 8 usec as a sifs time, extracted from the initvals, whereas the standard requires a sifs time of 10. The difference originates from the fact that the SIFS register has an offset of 2 usec. Fix the SIFS time definition to use the standard value of 10 usec and subtract 2 usecs when writing the SIFS register. Signed-off-by: Felix Fietkau <nbd@openwrt.org> Signed-off-by: John W.

During normal operation, minstrel was showing suspicious EWMA probabilities exceeding 100%. It looks like the tx status reporting in ath5k was not properly clearing the rate index for rates which were never attempted. This is caused by uninitialized stale data in the on-stack tx status information, which is reused when more frames are received. To fix this, rely on ts->ts_final_idx to select the last attempted rate, instead of checking whether ts->ts_rate is set. Additionally, the conversion from the driver rate index back to the mac80211 rate index can be dropped, as the mac80211 tx status will still have the original rate index which was used to set up the descriptor. Additionally, one more inaccuracy was fixed - the final rate attempt count only needs to be increased by one if the transmission attempt was successful.

Notify userspace when a beacon/presp is received from a suitable mesh peer candidate for whom no sta information exists. Userspace can then decide to create a sta info for the candidate. If userspace is not ready to authenticate the peer right away, it can create the sta info with the authenticated flag unset and set it later.

During mesh setup, use NL80211_MESH_SETUP_USERSPACE_AUTH flag to create a secure mesh and route management frames to userspace. Also, NL80211_CMD_GET_WIPHY now returns a flag NL80211_SUPPORT_MESH_AUTH if the wiphy's mesh implementation supports routing of mesh auth frames to userspace. This is useful for forward compatibility between old kernels and new userspace tools.
