Ever since carl9170 gained support to read the noisefloor, the reported noisefloor level was pretty poor. Initially I assumed that something was wrong in the PHY setup and it would be impossible to fix without any guidances. But this was not the case. In fact the nf readings were correct and the thing that was broken was the "simple" sign extension code! Signed-off-by: Christian Lamparter <chunkeey@googlemail.com> Signed-off-by: John W.

Add the mac80211 callback function to configure the tx queue properties like cw_min, cw_max and aifs. Signed-off-by: Bruno Randolf <br1@einfach.org> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>

Bruno Randolf authored
Get rid of overly complicated cw_min/max and AIFS configuration: * Validate values in ath5k_hw_set_tx_queueprops(), so we can use them directly without further checks or computation in ath5k_hw_reset_tx_queue(). * Simplifiy by using AR5K_TUNE_AIFS|CWMIN|CWMAX variables directly since we don't support XR or B channels. That way we can also remove AR5K_TXQ_USEDEFAULT and the confusing logic around it. * Update data types: AIFS is u8, CW's are u16. * Remove now unneeded variables in ath5k_hw.

If we return a TX descriptor to the pool of available descriptors, while a queues TXDP still points to it we could potentially run into all sorts of troube. It has been suggested that there is hardware which can set the descriptors done bit before it reads ds_link and moves on to the next descriptor. While the documentation says this is not true for newer chipsets (the descriptor contents are copied to some internal memory), we don't know about older hardware. To be safe, we always keep the last descriptor in the queue, and avoid dangling TXDP pointers. Unfortunately this does not fully resolve the problem - queues still get stuck! This is similar to what ath9k does. Signed-off-by: Bruno Randolf <br1@einfach.org> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>

Since we do not know any better solution to the problem that TX queues can get stuck, this adds a timer-based watchdog, which will check for stuck queues and reset the hardware if necessary.

It does not make sense to stop queues for NF calibration. This will not stop transmissions from the card, if there are queued packets. If we run out of TX buffers we need to stop all queues, not only one. Signed-off-by: Bruno Randolf <br1@einfach.org> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>

Prepare ath5k for WME by using four hardware queues. The way we set up our queues matches the mac80211 queue priority 1:1, so we don't have to do any mapping for queue numbers. Every queue uses 50 of the total 200 available transmit buffers, so the DMA memory usage does not increase with this patch, but it might be good to fine-tune the number of buffers per queue later (depending on the CPU speed and load, and the speed of the medium access, it might not be big enough).

This change reorganizes the main ath5k file in order to re-group related functions and remove most of the forward declarations (from 61 down to 3).

Fixing up a merge issue / concurrent development: Remove unneeded ath_crypt_caps flags, as per "ath9k_hw: remove useless hw capability flags" (364734fa), but set the AESCCM flag for ath9k. common ath code still needs a flag for this because there is ath5k hardware which can't do AES in hardware.

The patch titled "ath9k: Add new file init.c" shuffled some code around but in dong so for some reason also removed the revision check for disablign power save. Add this revision check again so we can get power save re-enabled again by default on cards newer than AR5416 and AR5418. $ git describe --contains 55624204 v2.6.34-rc1~233^2~49^2~343 This patch has fixes for stable kernels [2.6.34+].

The patch: commit 293dc5df Author: Gabor Juhos <juhosg@openwrt.org> Date: Fri Jun 19 12:17:48 2009 +0200 ath9k: remove ath_rx_ps_back_to_sleep helper This helper only clears the SC_OP_WAIT_FOR_{BEACON,CAB} flags. Remove it and clear these flags directly in the approptiate places instead. Changes-licensed-under: ISC Signed-off-by: Gabor Juhos <juhosg@openwrt.org> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com> introduced a regression which forgot to lift the beacon flag after we received all broadcast and multicast data. This meant we never went to sleep consuming about ~650mW on idle. This pretty much broke power save completely. This patch has fixes for stable kernels [2.6.32+].

Some buggy APs do not respond to unicast probe requests or send unicast probe requests very delayed so in the worst case we should try to send broadcast probe requests, otherwise we can get disconnected from these APs. Even if drivers do not have filters to disregard probe responses from foreign APs mac80211 will only process probe responses from our associated AP for re-arming connection monitoring. We need to do this since the beacon monitor does not push back the connection monitor by design so even if we are getting beacons from these type of APs our connection monitor currently relies heavily on the way the probe requests are received on the AP. An example of an AP affected by this is the Nexus One, but this has also been observed with random APs. We can probably optimize this later by using null funcs instead of probe requests.

When we go offchannel mac80211 currently leaves alive the connection idle monitor. This should be instead postponed until we come back to our home channel, otherwise by the time we get back to the home channel we could be triggering unecesary probe requests. For APs that do not respond to unicast probe requests (Nexus One is a simple example) this means we essentially get disconnected after the probes fails.

Upon beacon loss we send probe requests after 30 seconds of idle time and we wait for each probe response 1/2 second. We send a total of 3 probe requests before giving up on the AP. In the case that we reset the connection idle monitor we should reset the probe requests count to 0. Right now this won't help in any way but the next patch will.
