| * ath5k: keep beacon RSSI averageBruno Randolf2010-03-31
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Keep an exponentially weighted moving average of the beacon RSSI in our BSS. It will be used by the ANI implementation.

| * ath5k: remove the use of SWI interruptBruno Randolf2010-03-31
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | We don't need to generate a software interrupt (SWI) just to schedule a tasklet - we can just schedule the tasklet directly. Rename constants, names, etc to reflect the fact that we don't use SWI any more. Also move the flag handling into the tasklet and prepare it to behave correctly when there are multiple flags present.

| * | include cleanup: Update gfp.h and slab.h includes to prepare for breaking ↵Tejun Heo2010-03-30
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | implicit slab.h inclusion from percpu.h percpu.h is included by sched.h and module.h and thus ends up being included when building most .c files. percpu.h includes slab.h which in turn includes gfp.h making everything defined by the two files universally available and complicating inclusion dependencies. percpu.h -> slab.h dependency is about to be removed. Prepare for this change by updating users of gfp and slab facilities include those headers directly instead of assuming availability. As this conversion needs to touch large number of source files, the following script is used as the basis of conversion. http://userweb.kernel.org/~tj/misc/slabh-sweep.py The script does the followings. * Scan files for gfp and slab usages and update includes such that only the necessary includes are there. ie. if only gfp is used, gfp.h, if slab is used, slab.h. * When the script inserts a new include, it looks at the include blocks and try to put the new include such that its order conforms to its surrounding. It's put in the include block which contains core kernel includes, in the same order that the rest are ordered - alphabetical, Christmas tree, rev-Xmas-tree or at the end if there doesn't seem to be any matching order. * If the script can't find a place to put a new include (mostly because the file doesn't have fitting include block), it prints out an error message indicating which .h file needs to be added to the file. The conversion was done in the following steps. 1. The initial automatic conversion of all .c files updated slightly over 4000 files, deleting around 700 includes and adding ~480 gfp.h and ~3000 slab.h inclusions. The script emitted errors for ~400 files. 2. Each error was manually checked. Some didn't need the inclusion, some needed manual addition while adding it to implementation .h or embedding .c file was more appropriate for others. This step added inclusions to around 150 files. 3. The script was run again and the output was compared to the edits from #2 to make sure no file was left behind. 4. Several build tests were done and a couple of problems were fixed. e.g. lib/decompress_*.c used malloc/free() wrappers around slab APIs requiring slab.h to be added manually. 5. The script was run on all .h files but without automatically editing them as sprinkling gfp.h and slab.h inclusions around .h files could easily lead to inclusion dependency hell. Most gfp.h inclusion directives were ignored as stuff from gfp.h was usually wildly available and often used in preprocessor macros. Each slab.h inclusion directive was examined and added manually as necessary. 6. percpu.h was updated not to include slab.h. 7. Build test were done on the following configurations and failures were fixed. CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL was turned off for all tests (as my distributed build env didn't work with gcov compiles) and a few more options had to be turned off depending on archs to make things build (like ipr on powerpc/64 which failed due to missing writeq). * x86 and x86_64 UP and SMP allmodconfig and a custom test config. * powerpc and powerpc64 SMP allmodconfig * sparc and sparc64 SMP allmodconfig * ia64 SMP allmodconfig * s390 SMP allmodconfig * alpha SMP allmodconfig * um on x86_64 SMP allmodconfig 8. percpu.h modifications were reverted so that it could be applied as a separate patch and serve as bisection point. Given the fact that I had only a couple of failures from tests on step 6, I'm fairly confident about the coverage of this conversion patch. If there is a breakage, it's likely to be something in one of the arch headers which should be easily discoverable easily on most builds of the specific arch.

* | ath5k: Fix TX/RX padding for all framesBenoit Papillault2010-03-10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently, the padding position is based on ieee80211_get_hdrlen_from_skb(). This is not correct since the HW does padding on RX (and expect the same padding to be present on TX) at the following position : - management : 24 + 6 if 4-addr format - control : 24 + 6 if 4-addr format - data : 24 + 6 if 4-addr format + 2 if QoS - invalid : 24 + 6 if 4-addr format whereas ieee80211_get_hdrlen_from_skb() is : - management : 24 - control : 16 except for ACK/CTS where it is 10 - data : 24 + 6 if 4-addr format + 2 if QoS + 2 if QoS & order - invalid : 24 So, correct frames are not affected : management frames do not use 4-addr format, control frames have no body and invalid frames are ... not valid by definition. However, in order to use monitor interface for debugging purpose, one must be able to send/receive any frames, be it correct or not. Such frames are affected by incorrect padding. Moreover, since padding is added on TX, we need to remove it before calling ieee80211_tx_status. This affect TX packets received by monitor interfaces. It has been tested between an ath5k based card (AR5212) and an ar9170usb based card (netgear WNDA3100) using a frame generator and a monitor interface for each card. v2: Added ath5k_add_padding / ath5k_remove_padding Signed-off-by: Benoit Papillault <benoit.papillault@free.fr> Signed-off-by: John W.

| * ath5k: fix SWI calibration interrupt stormBob Copeland2009-12-28
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The calibration period is now invoked by triggering a software interrupt from within the ISR by ath5k_hw_calibration_poll() instead of via a timer. However, the calibration interval isn't initialized before interrupts are enabled, so we can have a situation where an interrupt occurs before the interval is assigned, so the interval is actually negative. As a result, the ISR will arm a software interrupt to schedule the tasklet, and then rearm it when the SWI is processed, and so on, leading to a softlockup at modprobe time. Move the initialization order around so the calibration interval is set before interrupts are active. Another possible fix is to schedule the tasklet directly from the poll routine, but I think there are additional plans for the SWI.

* 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.

* ath5k: Use SWI to trigger calibrationNick Kossifidis2009-08-14
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | * Get rid of calibration timer, instead use a software interrupt to schedule the calibration tasklet. a) We don't need a timer for this, there is no need for accuracy even with round_jiffies i think this is a waste of resources. Also we don't need to run calibration if we are idle (no interrupts). b) When we add ANI support we 'll just extend the poll function and calibration tasklet and handle all periodic phy calibration on one place (much cleaner). c) Having calibration on a tasklet is better since during calibration we can't transmit or receive (antennas are detached to measure noise floor), previously calibration could run in parallel with tx/rx and interfere (packet loss). v2: kill tasklet on stop_hw, stop/wake queues v3: use time_is_before_eq_jiffies to compare timestamp with current time Signed-off-by: Nick Kossifidis <mickflemm@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: John W.
