* mac80211: Add new callback set_coverage_classLukáš Turek2010-01-12
| | | | | | | | | Mac80211 callback to driver set_coverage_class() sets slot time and ACK timeout for given IEEE 802.11 coverage class. The callback is optional, but it's essential for long distance links. Signed-off-by: Lukas Turek <8an@praha12.net> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>
* nl80211: Add new WIPHY attribute COVERAGE_CLASSLukáš Turek2010-01-12
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The new attribute NL80211_ATTR_WIPHY_COVERAGE_CLASS sets IEEE 802.11 Coverage Class, which depends on maximum distance of nodes in a wireless network. It's required for long distance links (more than a few hundred meters). The attribute is now ignored by two non-mac80211 drivers, rndis and iwmc3200wifi, together with WIPHY_PARAM_RETRY_SHORT and WIPHY_PARAM_RETRY_LONG. If it turns out to be a problem, we could split set_wiphy_params callback or add new capability bits. Signed-off-by: Lukas Turek <8an@praha12.net> Signed-off-by: John W.

* ath9k: re-enable ps by default for new single chip familiesLuis R. Rodriguez2010-01-12
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The newer single chip hardware family of chipsets have not been experiencing issues with power saving set by default with recent fixes merged (even into stable). The remaining issues are only reported with AR5416 and since enabling PS by default can increase power savings considerably best to take advantage of that feature as this has been tested properly. For more details on this issue see the bug report: http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=14267 We leave AR5416 with PS disabled by default, that seems to require some more work.

| * rt2x00: Properly request tx headroom for alignment operations.Gertjan van Wingerde2010-01-05
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Current rt2x00 drivers may result in a "ieee80211_tx_status: headroom too small" error message when a frame needs to be properly aligned before transmitting it. This is because the space needed to ensure proper alignment isn't requested from mac80211. Fix this by adding sufficient amount of alignment space to the amount of headroom requested for TX frames.

| * mac80211: fix skb buffering issueJohannes Berg2010-01-05
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Since I removed the master netdev, we've been keeping internal queues only, and even before that we never told the networking stack above the virtual interfaces about congestion. This means that packets are queued in mac80211 and the upper layers never know, possibly leading to memory exhaustion and other problems. This patch makes all interfaces multiqueue and uses ndo_select_queue to put the packets into queues per AC. Additionally, when the driver stops a queue, we now stop all corresponding queues for the virtual interfaces as well. The injection case will use VO by default for non-data frames, and BE for data frames, but downgrade any data frames according to ACM. It needs to be fleshed out in the future to allow chosing the queue/AC in radiotap.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Commit 8bf3d79bc401ca417ccf9fc076d3295d1a71dbf5 enabled EEPROM checksum checks to avoid bogus bug reports but failed to address updating the code to consider devices with custom EEPROM sizes. Devices with custom sized EEPROMs have the upper limit size stuffed in the EEPROM. Use this as the upper limit instead of the static default size. In case of a checksum error also provide back the max size and whether or not this was the default size or a custom one. If the EEPROM is busted we add a failsafe check to ensure we don't loop forever or try to read bogus areas of hardware.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Setting the mac address from user space was buggy. For example, when executing this command: ip link set wlan0 address 00:1f:df:88:cd:55 mac80211 used the address 01:00:00:1f:df:88 instead. It was shifted two bytes. The reason was that the addr (type of void *) provided to ieee80211_change_mac() is actually of type struct sockaddr, not just the mac address array. Also the call to eth_mac_addr() expects the address to be struct sockaddr. Signed-off-by: Kalle Valo <kalle.valo@nokia.com> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>

| * mac80211: fix propagation of failed hardware reconfigurationsLuis R. Rodriguez2009-12-28
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | mac80211 does not propagate failed hardware reconfiguration requests. For suspend and resume this is important due to all the possible issues that can come out of the suspend <-> resume cycle. Not propagating the error means cfg80211 will assume the resume for the device went through fine and mac80211 will continue on trying to poke at the hardware, enable timers, queue work, and so on for a device which is completley unfunctional. The least we can do is to propagate device start issues and warn when this occurs upon resume. A side effect of this patch is we also now propagate the start errors upon harware reconfigurations (non-suspend), but this should also be desirable anyway, there is not point in continuing to reconfigure a device if mac80211 was unable to start the device.

| * mac80211: fix race with suspend and dynamic_ps_disable_workLuis R. Rodriguez2009-12-28
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When mac80211 suspends it calls a driver's suspend callback as a last step and after that the driver assumes no calls will be made to it until we resume and its start callback is kicked. If such calls are made, however, suspend can end up throwing hardware in an unexpected state and making the device unusable upon resume. Fix this by preventing mac80211 to schedule dynamic_ps_disable_work by checking for when mac80211 starts to suspend and starts quiescing. Frames should be allowed to go through though as that is part of the quiescing steps and we do not flush the mac80211 workqueue since it was already done towards the beginning of suspend cycle. The other mac80211 issue will be hanled in the next patch. For further details see refer to the thread: http://marc.info/?t=126144866100001&r=1&w=2 Cc: stable@kernel.org Signed-off-by: Luis R.

| * ath9k: fix missed error codes in the tx status checkFelix Fietkau2009-12-28
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | My previous change added in: commit 815833e7ecf0b9a017315cae6aef4d7cd9517681 ath9k: fix tx status reporting was not checking all possible tx error conditions. This could possibly lead to throughput issues due to slow rate control adaption or missed retransmissions of failed A-MPDU frames. This patch adds a mask for all possible error conditions and uses it in the xmit ok check.

| * ath9k: wake hardware during AMPDU TX actionsLuis R. Rodriguez2009-12-28
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | AMDPDU actions poke hardware for TX operation, as such we want to turn hardware on for these actions. AMDPU RX operations do not require hardware on as nothing is done in hardware for those actions. Without this we cannot guarantee hardware has been programmed correctly for each AMPDU TX action.
