* forcedeth: add new optimization modeAyaz Abdulla2009-03-10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | A new optimization mode called Dynamic has been added. This will be mode where interrupt moderation logic will dynamically switch between pure throughput mode and poll based (called 'cpu') mode. Also, for newer chipsets, the timer irq is not needed for throughput mode. Secondly, since we are modifying the irqmask to change between modes, msix is not supported.

* forcedeth: napi - handle all processingAyaz Abdulla2009-03-10
| | | | | | | | | | The napi poll routine has been modified to handle all interrupt events and process them accordingly. Therefore, the ISR will now only schedule the napi poll and disable all interrupts instead of just disabling rx interrupt. Signed-off-by: Ayaz Abdulla <aabdulla@nvidia.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
* forcedeth: add/modify tx done with limitAyaz Abdulla2009-03-10
| | | | | | | | | | There are two tx_done routines to handle tx completion processing. Both these functions now take in a limit value and return the amount of tx completions. This will be used by a future patch to determine the total amount of work done. Signed-off-by: Ayaz Abdulla <aabdulla@nvidia.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
* forcedeth: remove overheadAyaz Abdulla2009-03-10
| | | | | | | | | | This patch removes unnecessary overhead code. Firstly, there is no nead to mask off unwanted interrupts as we will be checking against the irqmask field anyways. Secondly, there has been no value in last few years from detecting error or unknown interrupts. Signed-off-by: Ayaz Abdulla <aabdulla@nvidia.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
* forcedeth: save irq events for napi processingAyaz Abdulla2009-03-10
| | | | | | | | | This patch will save the irq events in the driver's context so that the napi routine knows which interrupts have occurred. Subsequent changes will be moving all interrupt processing into the napi poll routine. Signed-off-by: Ayaz Abdulla <aabdulla@nvidia.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
* forcedeth: remove msix + napiAyaz Abdulla2009-03-10
| | | | | | | | | | | This patch removes support for msix running in conjunction with napi. There has been reported issues regarding the behaviour of irqmask and generation of interrupts by the HW when in MSIX mode. When running napi, the driver is constantly turning off/on the irqmask. For the time being, I am going to disable it until I can root cause the issue. Signed-off-by: Ayaz Abdulla <aabdulla@nvidia.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

* gigaset: return -ENOTTY for unimplemented functionsPaul Bolle2009-03-10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | A number of functions in the usb_gigaset module will return -EINVAL if CONFIG_GIGASET_UNDOCREQ is not set. Make these return -ENOTTY as it's more specific and it might make it easier to see (from userspace) why these functions actually fail.

Eventually, this interface could be replaced with a cfg80211/nl80211 command that is passed through mac80211. For example: # cat /debug/ath9k/phy0/wiphy primary: phy0 # echo add > /debug/ath9k/phy0/wiphy # cat /debug/ath9k/phy0/wiphy primary: phy0 secondary: phy1 # echo del=phy1 > /debug/ath9k/phy0/wiphy # cat /debug/ath9k/phy0/wiphy primary: phy0 In addition, following commands can be used to test pausing and unpausing of the virtual wiphys: pause=phy1 unpause=phy1 select=phy1 (select pauses and unpauses wiphys automatically based on channel) schedule=500 (set wiphy scheduling interval in msec; 0 = disable; default value: 500) Signed-off-by: Jouni Malinen <jouni.malinen@atheros.com> Signed-off-by: John W.

* | ath9k: Add a simple virtual wiphy schedulerJouni Malinen2009-03-05
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This is a very simple scheduler that goes through the wiphys and schedules one at a time every N milliseconds (current default value: 500 ms). This is enough for initial testing, but there are number of areas where a more complex scheduler can improve operations greatly.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Allow mac80211-controlled channel changes on an active wiphy and especially during a scan. We need this as long as the scan is controlled by mac80211. Moving this control into the driver could allow some optimizations on scanning while using multiple virtual interfaces, but for now, try to work as well as possible with the current scan mechanism.

* | ath9k: Add workaround to recover from failed channel changesJouni Malinen2009-03-05
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | It looks like channel change may fail in some cases and end up leaving the hardware in state where it cannot transmit any frames.
