* setup correct int pipe type in ar9170_usb_exec_cmdValentin Longchamp2010-04-26
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | commit 2d20c72c021d96f8b9230396c8e3782f204214ec upstream. An int urb is constructed but we fill it in with a bulk pipe type. Commit f661c6f8c67bd55e93348f160d590ff9edf08904 implemented a pipe type check when CONFIG_USB_DEBUG is enabled. The check failed for all the ar9170 usb transfers and the driver could not configure the wifi dongle. This went unnoticed until now because most people don't have CONFIG_USB_DEBUG enabled.

* ar9170: Add support for D-Link DWA 160 A2Thomas Klute2009-11-18
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | At least two revisions of the D-Link DWA 160 exist, called A1 and A2. A1 (USB-ID 07d1:3c10) is already listed in usb.c as D-Link DWA 160A. A2 (USB-ID 07d1:3a09) works if added to ar9170_usb_ids. I didn't do much testing until now, but I was able to connect to APs using WPA or WEP and transmit data.

This applid to ath5k and ar9170. ath9k already uses this. Worth noting is ath5k uses an ah_sta_id but that is already the MAC address combined with the associaiton ID, ah_sta_id is really ETH_ALEN in size.

* ar9170: fix bug in iq-auto calibration value calculationChristian Lamparter2009-09-29
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch fixes a embarrassing bug which was introduced by: "[PATCH] ar9170: implement frequency calibration for one-stage/openfw" The phy_data variable initialization has to done outside the for-loop scope. This is because the for-loop uses u32 phy_data variable more like a 4-byte field. But in each run only a single byte is calculated. Therefore phy_data content needs to stay the same for at least 3 more iterations, before the complete set can be uploaded.

* mac80211: allow configure_filter callback to sleepJohannes Berg2009-08-20
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Over time, a whole bunch of drivers have come up with their own scheme to delay the configure_filter operation to a workqueue. To be able to simplify things, allow configure_filter to sleep, and add a new prepare_multicast callback that drivers that need the multicast address list implement. This new callback must be atomic, but most drivers either don't care or just calculate a hash which can be done atomically and then uploaded to the hardware non-atomically. A cursory look suggests that at76c50x-usb, ar9170, mwl8k (which is actually very broken now), rt2x00, wl1251, wl1271 and zd1211 should make use of this new capability.

* | mac80211: redefine usage of the mac80211 workqueueLuis R. Rodriguez2009-08-04
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The mac80211 workqueue exists to enable mac80211 and drivers to queue their own work on a single threaded workqueue. mac80211 takes care to flush the workqueue during suspend but we never really had requirements on drivers for how they should use the workqueue in consideration for suspend. We extend mac80211 to document how the mac80211 workqueue should be used, how it should not be used and finally move raw access to the workqueue to mac80211 only. Drivers and mac80211 use helpers to queue work onto the mac80211 workqueue: * ieee80211_queue_work() * ieee80211_queue_delayed_work() These helpers will now warn if mac80211 already completed its suspend cycle and someone is trying to queue work. mac80211 flushes the mac80211 workqueue prior to suspend a few times, but we haven't taken the care to ensure drivers won't add more work after suspend. To help with this we add a warning when someone tries to add work and mac80211 already completed the suspend cycle. Drivers should ensure they cancel any work or delayed work in the mac80211 stop() callback. Signed-off-by: Luis R. Rodriguez <lrodriguez@atheros.com> Signed-off-by: John W.

* | mac80211: push rx status into skb->cbJohannes Berg2009-07-10
|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Within mac80211, we often need to copy the rx status into skb->cb. This is wasteful, as drivers could be building it in there to start with. This patch changes the API so that drivers are expected to pass the RX status in skb->cb, now accessible as IEEE80211_SKB_RXCB(skb). It also updates all drivers to pass the rx status in there, but only by making them memcpy() it into place before the call to the receive function (ieee80211_rx(_irqsafe)). Each driver can now be optimised on its own schedule. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes@sipsolutions.net> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>
* ar9170: xmit code revampChristian Lamparter2009-06-10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch is a back-port from aggregation testing code. In the past, we didn't limit the amount of active tx urbs. However, ar9170 only has a limited buffer reserved for pending data frames. This wasn't much of a problem with the slower 802.11b/g. We simply stopped the full queue and moved on to something different in the mean time. But - as you guessed it - this simple approach stands in way for a decent aggregation implementation.
