As described at http://article.gmane.org/gmane.linux.kernel.wireless.general/86084 libertas is taking a long time to load because it loads firmware during module loading. Add a new API for interface drivers to load their firmware asynchronously. The same semantics of the firmware table are followed like before. Interface drivers will be converted in follow-up patches, then we can remove the old, synchronous firmware loading function. Signed-off-by:

These simple sanity check avoids extra complexity in error paths when moving to asynchronous firmware loading (which means the device may fail to init some time after its creation). Signed-off-by:

Remove the ability to pass module parameters with firmware filenames for USB and SDIO interfaces. Remove the ability to pass custom "user" filenames to lbs_get_firmware(). Remove the ability to reprogram internal device memory with a different firmware from the USB driver (we don't know of any users), and simplify the OLPC firmware loading quirk to simply placing the OLPC firmware at the top of the list (we don't know of any users other than OLPC). Move lbs_get_firmware() into its own file. These simplifications should have no real-life effect but make the upcoming transition to asynchronous firmware loading considerably less painful.

There are connection stalls or very poor throughputs with rt2800 hardware using 802.11n in AP mode since patch "mac80211: retry sending failed BAR frames later instead of tearing down aggr"[1][2]. Since rt2800 hardware is not able to correctly report the tx status of BAR frames, this patch removes as workaround the existing error handling on AP side, which lets mac80211 send a BAR when an AMPDU subframe fails. As a result, most wifi clients (aside from Intel STAs on Windows) instead will timeout now the reorder buffer and request the lost frame again. The correct solution would be, to tear down BA session on AP side. This patch was born on the basis of "[RFT] rt2x00: Tear down BA session on QoS frame failure"[3]. Thanks to Helmut Schaa for his support!

We've never released firmware using the alternatives mechanism and our build process makes that difficult anyway. This means that in every file we have ever built (except maybe by hand for testing) the listed alternative was 0. Make the alternative field in the TLVs part of the TLV number (thus expanding that to 32 bits); this gives us more TLV numbers (not really needed) and more importantly protects against rogue firmware files that actually do use the alternatives mechanism -- those will now be rejected since they don't contain any valid TLVs.

My original idea with this was to adjust the sleep pattern of the uCode based on the maximum network latency userspace asked for. Due to nobody wanting to test it, this logic was disabled by default. It seems the time has come to remove it, since it's not only always disabled but there also don't seem to be any applications that actually request a max network latency. Signed-off-by:

The REDUCE_SCALED_POWER_BY_THREE_CHAIN symbol is defined in different eeprom files, and the value varies between the different files. In eeprom_def.c and in ar9003_eeprom.c the value of the symbol is 9, however the comments in these files indicates the value should be 10*log10(3)*2 which is 9.54242509439325. Replace the the value to 10 in these files. Also add comments to eeprom_9287.c. Signed-off-by:

The background scan completion takes more time when the station is having heavy uplink traffic. The scan state machine decides to fall back to home channel on every off-channel visit when there are pending frames in tx queue. bgscan completion took ~30sec on dual band US regulatory card. scan period = (20 active channels * probe timeout) + (12 passive channels * passive probe timeout) + (32 * timeout on home channel) + (32 * flush timeout) Signed-off-by:
