When I connect to my Linksys WT610N AP supporting 11n I see a lot of aggreation timeout errors: [ 408.885053] ath6kl: aggr timeout (st 3109 end 3140) [ 463.872108] ath6kl: aggr timeout (st 3671 end 3702) [ 495.010060] ath6kl: aggr timeout (st 3983 end 4014) [ 503.604047] ath6kl: aggr timeout (st 4065 end 0) [ 518.963047] ath6kl: aggr timeout (st 141 end 172) [ 525.014066] ath6kl: aggr timeout (st 205 end 236) [ 573.957051] ath6kl: aggr timeout (st 701 end 732) [ 585.019067] ath6kl: aggr timeout (st 816 end 847) But still the connection seems to work. To not clutter the logs change the error message to a debug message. But add a fixme comment so that this will be investigated. Signed-off-by: Kalle Valo <kvalo@qca.qualcomm.com>

ath6kl Kconfig still had dependencies to wext, remove those as they are not needed anymore. Now ath6kl should not have any wext code left. Time to have a beer and celebrate this. Signed-off-by: Kalle Valo <kvalo@qca.qualcomm.com>

When ath6kl module was removed while a scan was ongoing the driver would crash in ath6kl_cfg80211_scan_complete_event(). Fix the function not to iterate nodes when the scan is aborted. The nodes are already freed when the module is being unloaded. This patch removes the null check entirely as the wmi structure is not accessed anymore during module unload. Also fix a bug where the status was checked as a bitfield with '&' operator. But it's not a bitfield, just a regular error code. This is a port of my patch from ath6kl staging with the same title.

ath6kl_cfg80211_scan_node() was calling cfg80211_inform_bss_frame() with CFP_KERNEL but the function is executed with a spin lock taken. This is wrong and the function must use GFP_ATOMIC instead. Signed-off-by: Kalle Valo <kvalo@qca.qualcomm.com>

In my setup data transfer stalls when there's data transmission during scan. After some testing I found out that using background scan when connected to makes the problem go away. This is more like a workaround than a proper fix, but as the stall is so severe the workaround is justified. With a dual band card this increases scan time when connected from 1.9s to 4.4s. When not connected the scan time is not affected and is the same 1.9s. Signed-off-by: Kalle Valo <kvalo@qca.qualcomm.com>

Last May we started working on cleaning up ath6kl driver which is currently in staging. The work has happened in a separate ath6kl-cleanup tree: http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/kvalo/ath6kl-cleanup.git;a=summary After over 1100 (!) patches we have now reached a state where I would like to start discussing about pushing the driver to the wireless trees and replacing the staging driver. The driver is now a lot smaller and looks like a proper Linux driver. The size of the driver (measured with simple wc -l) dropped from 49 kLOC to 18 kLOC and the number of the .c and .h files dropped from 107 to 22. Most importantly the number of subdirectories reduced from 26 to zero :) There are two remaining checkpatch warnings in the driver which we decided to omit for now: drivers/net/wireless/ath/ath6kl/debug.c:31: WARNING: printk() should include KERN_ facility level drivers/net/wireless/ath/ath6kl/sdio.c:527: WARNING: msleep < 20ms can sleep for up to 20ms; see Documentation/timers/timers-howto.txt The driver has endian annotations for all the hardware specific structures and there are no sparse errors. Unfortunately I don't have any big endian hardware to test that right now. We have been testing the driver both on x86 and arm platforms. The code is also compiled with sparc and parisc cross compilers. Notable missing features compared to the current staging driver are: o HCI over SDIO support o nl80211 testmode o firmware logging o suspend support Testmode, firmware logging and suspend support will be added soon. HCI over SDIO support will be more difficult as the HCI driver needs to share code with the wifi driver. This is something we need to research more. Also I want to point out the changes I did for signed endian support. As I wasn't able to find any support for signed endian annotations I decided to follow what NTFS has done and added my own. Grep for sle16 and sle32, especially from wmi.h. Various people have been working on the cleanup, the hall of fame based on number of patches is: 543 Vasanthakumar Thiagarajan 403 Raja Mani 252 Kalle Valo 16 Vivek Natarajan 12 Suraj Sumangala 3 Joe Perches 2 Jouni Malinen Signed-off-by: Vasanthakumar Thiagarajan <vthiagar@qca.qualcomm.com> Signed-off-by: Raja Mani <rmani@qca.qualcomm.com> Signed-off-by: Vivek Natarajan <nataraja@qca.qualcomm.com> Signed-off-by: Suraj Sumangala <surajs@qca.qualcomm.com> Signed-off-by: Joe Perches <joe@perches.com> Signed-off-by: Jouni Malinen <jouni@qca.qualcomm.com> Signed-off-by: Kalle Valo <kvalo@qca.qualcomm.com>

Currently ath9k presents the internal calibrated noise floor as channel noise measurement, however this results in highly chip specific values that are only useful as relative measurements but do not resemble any real channel noise values. In order to give a much better approximation of the real channel noise, add the difference between the measured noise floor and the nominal chip specific noise floor to the default minimum channel noise value, which is currently used to calculate the signal strength from the RSSI value. This may not be 100% accurate, but it's much better than what's there before. Signed-off-by: Felix Fietkau <nbd@openwrt.org> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>
