Although mac80211 buffers broad- and mutlicast frames for us in AP mode we still have to send them out after a DTIM beacon. Implement this behavior by sending out the buffered frames when the beacondone interrupt is processed.

Since all rt2x00 PCI drivers use threaded interrupts now we don't need to schedule a work just to update the beacon. The only place where the beacon still gets updated in atomic context is from the set_tim callback. Hence, move the work scheduling there.

Use threaded interrupts for all rt2x00 PCI devices. This has several generic advantages: - Reduce the time we spend in hard irq context - Use non-atmic mac80211 functions for rx/tx Furthermore implementing broad- and multicast buffering will be much easier in process context while maintaining low latency and updating the beacon just before transmission (pre tbtt interrupt) can also be done in process context.

Implement watchdog monitoring for USB devices (PCI support can be added later). This will determine if URBs being uploaded to the hardware are actually returning. Both rt2500usb and rt2800usb have shown that URBs being uploaded can remain hanging without being released by the hardware. By using this watchdog, a queue can be reset when this occurs. For rt2800usb it has been tested that the connection is preserved even though this interruption. Signed-off-by: Ivo van Doorn <IvDoorn@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: John W.

Currently vgc_level_reg and vgc_level are equal to eachother, while the purpose of vgc_level_reg is the value last written to the register and is remembered through link tuning resets. The vgc_level is the currently active level, which is reset during link tuning resets. The usage of these variables depends on the drivers, some drivers need both, while others need only one of the two. Signed-off-by: Ivo van Doorn <IvDoorn@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: John W.

Rename CONFIG_DISABLE_LINK_TUNING to DRIVER_SUPPORT_LINK_TUNING Link tuning support is not only based on EEPROM decisions, but also if the device actually supports it. Currently only rt2500usb doesn't support link tuning because of hardware problems. But rt2800usb is also suspected of having problems with link tuning.

The RSSI values in the RXWI descriptor aren't true RSSI values. Instead they are more like the AGC values similar to rt61pci. And as such, it needs the same conversion before it can be passed to rt2x00lib/mac80211. This requires the struct queue_entry to be passed to rt2800_process_rxwi rather then the skb structure which is contained in the queue_entry. This is required to obtain the lna_gain information from the rt2x00_dev structure. This fixes connection problems when using wpa_supplicant which would try to connect to the worst AP's rather then the best ones.

In hostap_add_interface() we do: sprintf(dev->name, "%s%s", prefix, name); dev->name has IFNAMSIZ (16) characters. prefix is local->dev->name. name is "wds%d" strlen() returns the number of characters in the string not counting the NULL so if we have a string with 11 characters we get "12345678901wds%d" which is 16 characters and a NULL so we're past the end of the array.

Ever since mac80211/drivers are no longer fully in charge of keeping track of the auth status, trying to make them do so will fail. Instead of warning and reporting the deauthentication to userspace, cfg80211 must simply ignore it so that spurious deauthentications, e.g. before starting authentication, aren't seen by userspace as actual deauthentications.

When we stop the Tx DMA channels, we poll bits 16:31 in FH_TSSR_RX_STATUS_REG. From 4965 and up, only the bits 16:26 are legal. Bits 27:31 are not used and are always unset. Polling them will lead to fail on timeout but since the timeout is quite small, the stall was not felt.

This patch is a complete rewrite of the scanning code. It now includes a state machine to scan all four possible sets of channels independently: 2.4GHz active, 2.4GHz passive, 5GHz active and 5GHz passive. The wl1271 firmware doesn't allow these sets to be mixed, so up to several scan commands have to be issued. This patch also allows scanning more than 24 channels per set, by breaking the sets into smaller parts if needed (the firmware can scan a maximum of 24 channels at a time). Previously, the scanning code was erroneously scanning all channels possible actively, not complying with the CRDA values. This is also fixed with this patch.

The scanning code is going to get a bit more complex, with proper support for active/passive scans together with 2.4GHz and 5GHz. In the future, also a new type of scan (periodic scan) will be added. When all this is implemented, the code is going to be much more complex, so we'd better separate it into a separate file. This patch doesn't have any impact on functionality.

Some AP's (such as Zyxel Prestige 600) have totally broken ps-poll functionality. When powersave is enabled, these AP's will set the TIM bit for a STA in beacons, but when the STA responds with a ps-poll, the AP does not respond with data. The wl1271 firmware is able to send an indication to the host, when this problem occurs. This patch adds implementation, which temporarily disables power-save in response to this indication, allowing the AP to transmit whatever data it has buffered for the STA / whatever data is inbound at that time. This patch does not make these AP's work reliably in PSM, but improves the chances of inbound data getting through. The side effect of this patch is increased power consumption when using a faulty AP.

This patch removes the calibration performed on the first join command. The reasoning is that this is unnecessary as devices get their calibration data via the NVS file, and because the commands break BT coexistence. This is actually safe, because of the implementation the calibration was executed on the first JOIN anyway, after an ifdown/ifup the devices have relied on the NVS for calibration anyway (== most of the time.)

The current mac80211 code assumes that WEP is always available. If WEP fails to initialize, ieee80211_register_hw will always fail. In some cases (e.g. FIPS certification), the cryptography used by WEP is unavailable. However, in such cases there is no good reason why CCMP encryption (or even no link level encryption) cannot be used. So, this patch removes mac80211's assumption that WEP (and TKIP) will always be available for use. Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>

When ath_tx_complete_aggr() is called, it's responsible for returning all buffers in the linked list.
