* ath9k: implement channel utilization stats for surveyFelix Fietkau2010-10-11
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | Results for the active channel are updated whenever a new survey dump is requested, the old data is kept to allow multiple processes to make their own channel utilization averages. All other channels only contain the data for the last time that the hardware was on the channel, i.e. the last scan result or other off-channel activity. Running a background scan does not clear the data for the active channel. Signed-off-by: Felix Fietkau <nbd@openwrt.org> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>
* ath9k: remove unnecessary power save flags.Senthil Balasubramanian2010-10-06
| | | | | | | | | | | drv_config callback is called only after the ack for the nullframe is received and so driver need not do anything special for this. So remove NULLFUNC_COMPLETED, PS_ENABLED flags and bf_isnullfunc flags from ath9k as mac80211 already handles them properly.

* ath9k: fix an aggregation start related race conditionFelix Fietkau2010-09-21
| | | | | | | | | | | | A new aggregation session start can be issued by mac80211, even when the cleanup of the previous session has not completed yet. Since the data structure for the session is not recreated, this could corrupt the block ack window and lock up the aggregation session. Fix this by delaying the new session until the old one has been cleaned up. Signed-off-by: Felix Fietkau <nbd@openwrt.org> Cc: stable@kernel.org Signed-off-by: John W.

* ath9k: fix enabling ANI / tx monitor after bg scanLuis R. Rodriguez2010-09-16
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | ath9k's entire logic with SC_OP_SCANNING is incorrect due to the way mac80211 currently implements the scan complete callback and we handle it in ath9k. This patch removes the flag completely in preference for the SC_OP_OFFCHANNEL which is really what we wanted. The scanning flag was used to ensure we reset ANI to the old values when we go back to the home channel, but if we are offchannel we use some defaults. The flag was also used to re-enable the TX monitor. Without this patch we simply never re-enabled ANI and the TX monitor after going offchannel. This means that after one background scan we are prone to noise issues and if we had a TX hang we would not recover. To get this to work properly we must enable ANI after we have configured the beacon timers, otherwise hardware acts really oddly. This patch has stable fixes which apply down to [2.6.36+], there *may* be a to fix this on older kernels but requires a bit of work since this patch relies on the new mac80211 flag IEEE80211_CONF_OFFCHANNEL which was introduced as of 2.6.36.

* ath9k: fix BSSID mask calculationFelix Fietkau2010-09-14
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | At the time the .add_interface driver op is called, the interface has not been marked as running yet, so ieee80211_iterate_active_interfaces will not pass it to the iterator function. Because of this, the calculated BSSID mask is wrong, which breaks multi-BSS operation. Additionally, the current way of comparing all addresses against each other is pointless, as the hardware only uses the hardware MAC address and the BSSID mask for matching the destination address, so all the address array reallocation is completely unnecessary. This patch simplifies the logic by setting the initial mask bytes to 0xff and removing all bits in the iterator call that don't match the hardware MAC address. It also calls the iterator for the vif that was passed to add_interface() Signed-off-by: Felix Fietkau <nbd@openwrt.org> Tested-by: Ben Greear <greearb@candelatech.com> Signed-off-by: John W.

* ath9k: shorten the calibration interval during strong interferenceFelix Fietkau2010-08-16
| | | | | | | | | | | | | When the noise floor limits are being bypassed because of strong interference, sensitivity is also reduced. In order to recover from this as quickly as possible, trigger a long periodic calibration every second instead of every 30 seconds, until the NF median is within limits again. This is especially important if the interference lasts for a while, since it takes multiple clean NF calibrations to bring the median back to normal.

* ath9k_hw: clean up per-channel calibration dataFelix Fietkau2010-08-04
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The noise floor history buffer is currently not kept per channel, which can lead to problems when changing channels from a clean channel to a noisy one. Also when switching from HT20 to HT40, the noise floor history buffer is full of measurements, but none of them contain data for the extension channel, which it needs quite a bit of time to recover from. This patch puts all the per-channel calibration data into a single data structure, and gives the the driver control over whether that is used per-channel or even not used for some channels. For ath9k_htc, I decided to keep this per-channel in order to avoid creating regressions. For ath9k, the data is kept only for the operating channel, which saves some space. ath9k_hw takes care of wiping old data when the operating channel or its channel flags change.

* ath9k: prevent calibration during off-channel activityFelix Fietkau2010-08-04
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Previously the software scan callback was used to indicate to the hardware, when it was safe to calibrate. This didn't really work properly, because it depends on a specific order of software scan callbacks vs. channel changes. Also, software scans are not the only thing that triggers off-channel activity, so it's better to use the newly added indication from mac80211 for this and not use the software scan callback for anything calibration related. This fixes at least some of the invalid noise floor readings that I've seen in AP mode on AR9160 Signed-off-by: Felix Fietkau <nbd@openwrt.org> Signed-off-by: John W.

| * ath9k: Fix bug in starting aniVasanthakumar Thiagarajan2010-06-23
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | There are few places where ANI is started without checking if it is right to start. This might lead to a case where ani timer would be left undeleted and cause improper memory acccess during module unload. This bug is clearly exposed with paprd support where the driver detects tx hang and does a chip reset. During this reset ani is (re)started without checking if it needs to be started. This would leave a timer scheduled even after all the resources are freed and cause a panic. This patch introduces a bit in sc_flags to indicate if ani needs to be started in sw_scan_start() and ath_reset(). This would fix the following panic. This issue is easily seen with ar9003 + paprd.

* | ath9k: fix queue stopping thresholdFelix Fietkau2010-06-14
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | ath9k tries to prevent WMM queue tx buffer starvation caused by traffic on different queues by limiting the number of pending frames in a tx queue (tracked in the ath_buf structure). This had a leak issue, because the a skb can be reassigned to a different ath_buf in the tx path, causing the pending frame counter to become inaccurate. To fix this, track the number of frames in an array in the softc, using the mac80211 queue mapping as index. Signed-off-by: Felix Fietkau <nbd@openwrt.org> Signed-off-by: John W.

* | ath9k: add new ANI implementation for AR9003Luis R. Rodriguez2010-06-14

The implementation for ANI for AR9003 is slightly different than the one used for the older chipset families. It can technically be used for the older families as well but this is not yet fully tested so we only enable the new ANI for the AR5008, AR9001 and AR9002 families with a module parameter, force_new_ani. The old ANI implementation is left intact. Details of the new ANI implemention: * ANI adjustment logic is now table driven so that each ANI level setting is parameterized. This makes adjustments much more deterministic than the old procedure based logic and allows adjustments to be made incrementally to several parameters per level. * ANI register settings are now relative to INI values; so ANI param zero level == INI value. Appropriate floor and ceiling values are obeyed when adjustments are combined with INI values. * ANI processing is done once per second rather that every 100ms. The poll interval is now a set upon hardware initialization and can be picked up by the core driver. * OFDM error and CCK error processing are made in a round robin fashion rather than allowing all OFDM adjustments to be made before CCK adjustments. * ANI adjusts MRC CCK off in the presence of high CCK errors * When adjusting spur immunity (SI) and OFDM weak signal detection, ANI now sets register values for the extension channel too * When adjusting FIR step (ST), ANI now sets register for FIR step low too * FIR step adjustments now allow for an extra level of immunity for extremely noisy environments * The old Noise immunity setting (NI), which changes coarse low, size desired, etc have been removed. Changing these settings could affect up RIFS RX as well. * CCK weak signal adjustment is no longer used * ANI no longer enables phy error interrupts; in all cases phy hw counting registers are used instead * The phy error count (overflow) interrupts are also no longer used for ANI adjustments. All ANI adjustments are made via the polling routine and no adjustments are possible in the ISR context anymore * A history settings buffer is now correctly used for each channel; channel settings are initialized with the defaults but later changes are restored when returning back to that channel * When scanning, ANI is disabled settings are returned to (INI) defaults. * OFDM phy error thresholds are now 400 & 1000 (errors/second units) for low/high water marks, providing increased stability/hysteresis when changing levels. * Similarly CCK phy error thresholds are now 300 & 600 (errors/second) Signed-off-by: Luis R.

* | ath9k: fix queue stop/start based on the number of pending framesFelix Fietkau2010-06-03
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Because there is a limited number of tx buffers available, once the queue has been filled to a certain point, ath9k needs to stop accepting new frames from mac80211. In order to prevent a full WMM queue from stopping another queue with fewer frames, this patch limits the number of queued frames to a quarter of the total available tx buffers, minus some reserved frames to be used for other purposes (e.g. beacons). Because tx buffers are reserved for frames when they're staged in software queues as well, the actual queue depth cannot be used for this, so this patch stores a reference to the tx queue in the ath_buf struct and keeps track of the total number of pending frames.
