| * | mac80211: fix reorder buffer releaseJohannes Berg2009-12-041-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | My patch "mac80211: correctly place aMPDU RX reorder code" uses an skb queue for MPDUs that were released from the buffer. I intentially didn't initialise and use the skb queue's spinlock, but in this place forgot that the code variant that doesn't touch the spinlock is needed. Thanks to Christian Lamparter for quickly spotting the bug in the backtrace Reinette reported.

It was not supposed to remove TX status reporting for injected frames, but ended up doing it by checking the injected flag in skb->cb only after that field had been cleared with memset.. Fix this by taking a local copy of the injected flag before skb->cb is cleared. This broke user space applications that depend on getting TX status notifications for injected data frames. For example, STA inactivity poll from hostapd did not work and ended up kicking out stations even if they were still present. Signed-off-by: Jouni Malinen <j@w1.fi> Signed-off-by: John W.

| | * | b43legacy: avoid PPC fault during resumeLarry Finger2009-12-041-0/+7
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | For PPC architecture with PHY Revision < 3, a read of the register B43_MMIO_HWENABLED_LO will cause a CPU fault unless b43legacy_status() returns a value of 2 (B43legacy_STAT_STARTED); however, one finds that the driver is unable to associate after resuming from hibernation unless this routine returns 1. To satisfy both conditions, the routine is rewritten to return TRUE whenever b43legacy_status() returns a value < 2.

For PPC architecture with PHY Revision < 3, a read of the register B43_MMIO_HWENABLED_LO will cause a CPU fault unless b43_status() returns a value of 2 (B43_STAT_STARTED) (BUG 14181). Fixing that results in Bug 14538 in which the driver is unable to reassociate after resuming from hibernation because b43_status() returns 0. The correct fix would be to determine why the status is 0; however, I have not yet found why that happens. The correct value is found for my device, which has PHY revision >= 3. Returning TRUE when the PHY revision < 3 and b43_status() returns 0 fixes the regression for 2.6.32. This patch fixes the problem in Red Hat Bugzilla #538523.

The previous patch moved the code there, and this patch now hooks it up in that place by introducing a list of skbs that are then processed by the remaining handlers. The list may be empty if the function is buffering the skb to release it later. The only change needed to the RX data is that the crypto handler needs to clear the key that may be set from a previous loop iteration, and that not everything can be in the rx flags now.

This raise a new issue in itself that the work scheduled by the platform driver to the global worqueue calls wiphy_unregister which flush_work scan and event works (which thus flush works on the global workqueue inside a work on the global workqueue) and also put on hold the wdev_cleanup_work (which prevents the dev_put on netdev thus indefinite Usage count error on wifi device).

| | * | ath9k: Fix maximum tx fifo settings for single stream devicesLuis R. Rodriguez2009-11-285-8/+53
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Atheros single stream AR9285 and AR9271 have half the PCU TX FIFO buffer size of that of dual stream devices. Dual stream devices have a max PCU TX FIFO size of 8 KB while single stream devices have 4 KB. Single stream devices have an issue though and require hardware only to use half of the amount of its capable PCU TX FIFO size, 2 KB and this requires a change in software. Technically a change would not have been required (except for frame burst considerations of 128 bytes) if these devices would have been able to use the full 4 KB of the PCU TX FIFO size but our systems engineers recommend 2 KB to be used only. We enforce this through software by reducing the max frame triggger level to 2 KB. Fixing the max frame trigger level should then have a few benefits: * The PER will now be adjusted as designed for underruns when the max trigger level is reached. This should help alleviate the bus as the rate control algorithm chooses a slower rate which should ensure frames are transmitted properly under high system bus load. * The poll we use on our TX queues should now trigger and work as designed for single stream devices. The hardware passes data from each TX queue on the PCU TX FIFO queue respecting each queue's priority. The new trigger level ensures this seeding of the PCU TX FIFO queue occurs as designed which could mean avoiding false resets and actually reseting hw correctly when a TX queue is indeed stuck. * Some undocumented / unsupported behaviour could have been triggered when the max trigger level level was being set to 4 KB on single stream devices. Its not clear what this issue was to me yet.

| | * | ath9k: Proper padding/unpadding for the TX/RX path.Benoit Papillault2009-11-284-18/+31
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Software padding is done on the TX path and software unpadding is done on the RX path. This patch corrects the position where the padding occurs. A specific function computes the pad position and this function is used in the TX and RX path. This patch has been tested by generating every possible 802.11 frames with every possible frame_control field and a varying length. This patch is useful for analyzing non standard 802.11 frames going over the air Signed-off-by: Benoit Papillault <benoit.papillault@free.fr> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>

This meant hardware would not see the ACKs from the AP we're associated with and hardware we'd end up retransmiting the null data frame in a loop helplessly. Fix this by keeping track of the transmitted nullfunc frames and only when we are sure the AP has sent back an ACK do we go ahead and shut RX off.

Before sending an AddBA, the UMAC synchronizes with the host in order to know what is the last Tx frame it's supposed to receive before it will be able to start the actual aggregation session. We thus have to keep track of the last sequence number that is scheduled for transmission on a particular RAxTID, send an answer to the UMAC with this sequence number. The UMAC then does the BA negociation and once it's done with it sends a new UMAC_CMD_OPCODE_STOP_RESUME_STA_TX notification to let us know that we can resume the Tx flow on the specified RAxTID.
