* | ath9k: Cache BSS informationSujith Manoharan2014-09-26
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Using the BSS information stored in mac80211 directly is racy in certain conditions. For example, in a MCC setup, if the scheduler is switching channels when a local deauth is issued, calculation of the opmode/bssid etc. is incorrect. To avoid this, store the bss params in the driver and use it. Signed-off-by: Sujith Manoharan <c_manoha@qca.qualcomm.com> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>

* | ath9k: Fix interface accountingSujith Manoharan2014-09-09

* | ath9k: Fix RX filter calculationSujith Manoharan2014-09-09
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | If multiple channel contexts are active, then the opmode can be different in each context. Since the RX filter is calculated in ath_startrecv() before switching to the new opmode, the wrong filters are chosen. Fix this by calling ath9k_calculate_summary_state() before the RX module is started. Signed-off-by: Sujith Manoharan <c_manoha@qca.qualcomm.com> Signed-off-by: John W.

* | ath9k: Fix panic when adding an AP interfaceSujith Manoharan2014-09-09
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | If a station interface is already assigned to a context and is active and a second interface of type AP is added, then beaconing on the new interface has to be begin only after the BSS_CHANGED_BEACON_ENABLED flag is sent by mac80211 to the driver. But, since we issue ATH_CHANCTX_EVENT_ENABLE_MULTICHANNEL as soon as a new channel context is added, a switch occurs almost immediately before BSS_CHANGED_BEACON_ENABLED is received. When a HW reset is done for the new context, beacons are enabled for the interface since "enable_beacon" in the BSS config maintained in mac80211 is true - but the driver hasn't been notified yet. This causes a panic, since the beacon interval is zero for this interface and ath9k_cmn_beacon_config_ap() doesn't have a safety check. Fix this panic by checking if the beacon params has been cached for this context and use the "enable_beacon" flag maintained locally in the driver. Also, recalculate the summary data after the beacon params have been cached when BSS_CHANGED_BEACON_ENABLED is received.
