The wl12xx.h file now contains mostly definitions that are internal to wlcore. Still, some things need to me moved to the public header, so for now we keep including it in wlcore.h. Signed-off-by: Luciano Coelho <coelho@ti.com> Signed-off-by: Arik Nemtsov <arik@wizery.com>

Instead of using hardcoded values for a single frequency, we need to read the frequency and use the appropriate values for it in the top initialization. Signed-off-by: Luciano Coelho <coelho@ti.com> Signed-off-by: Arik Nemtsov <arik@wizery.com>

Define the FW pc in the 18xx register translation table. This specific register is only valid in the boot partition, so change the momentarily change partitions. This doesn't damage 12xx cards, where the FW pc is accessible via boot partition as well. Signed-off-by: Arik Nemtsov <arik@wizery.com> Signed-off-by: Luciano Coelho <coelho@ti.com>

The firmware uses the SCR_PAD2 register to read the board type passed from the driver. The values don't match the ones used in the mac and phy configuration, so we need to map them before writing. This commit adds a translation table that is used when writing the board type to SCR_PAD2. Signed-off-by: Luciano Coelho <coelho@ti.com> Signed-off-by: Arik Nemtsov <arik@wizery.com>

Different board types (ie. FPGA, HDK and DVP/EVB) require slightly different init configuration options. Since we cannot probe the type of board from the actual hardware, we need to pass it as an option during module load. This patch adds a module parameters that accepts the 3 different board types, with DVP/EVB as the default, and uses this value where needed.

Add a HW op to add extra enabled rates for AP-mode data-rates. Since the rates might depend on channel properties, reconfigure AP-mode rates when these change. Implement the HW op for the 18xx family, where MIMO or wide-chan rates can be added. Signed-off-by: Arik Nemtsov <arik@wizery.com> Signed-off-by: Luciano Coelho <coelho@ti.com>

Translate the NL80211 channel type to a FW-specific channel type and send it to the FW as part of the role-start command. For wl12xx this has no effect - this element is treated as padding. Signed-off-by: Arik Nemtsov <arik@wizery.com> Signed-off-by: Luciano Coelho <coelho@ti.com>

Some chip families are capable of checksumming certain classes of Tx packets in HW. Indicate this fact in the netdev features and perform the HW checksum by protocol type for the 18xx family. Fix the location of the skb network header when we move it so we can rely on it when setting the checksum. Signed-off-by: Arik Nemtsov <arik@wizery.com> Signed-off-by: Luciano Coelho <coelho@ti.com>

At least in PG1, the wl18xx chips use the same SDIO vendor/device ID, so it's not possible to figure out which driver is to be used. As a workaround, we can check the SDIO revision number, because wl18xx uses 3.00 and wl12xx does not. Signed-off-by: Luciano Coelho <coelho@ti.com> Signed-off-by: Arik Nemtsov <arik@wizery.com>

This patch implements two new messages that can be sent to the thin pool target allowing it to take a snapshot of the _metadata_. This, read-only snapshot can be accessed by userland, concurrently with the live target. Only one metadata snapshot can be held at a time. The pool's status line will give the block location for the current msnap. Since version 0.1.5 of the userland thin provisioning tools, the thin_dump program displays the msnap as follows: thin_dump -m <msnap root> <metadata dev> Available here: https://github.com/jthornber/thin-provisioning-tools Now that userland can access the metadata we can do various things that have traditionally been kernel side tasks: i) Incremental backups. By using metadata snapshots we can work out what blocks have changed over time. Combined with data snapshots we can ensure the data doesn't change while we back it up. A short proof of concept script can be found here: https://github.com/jthornber/thinp-test-suite/blob/master/incremental_backup_example.rb ii) Migration of thin devices from one pool to another. iii) Merging snapshots back into an external origin. iv) Asyncronous replication.
