* ath9k: Implement an API to swap main/ALT LNA'sMohammed Shafi Shajakhan2011-05-16
| | | | | | | | | | | | | for the diversity group 2(AR9485) we swap the LNA's of main/ALT antenna based on alternate antenna's rssi average in comparision with main antenna's rssi, while for AR9285(antenna diversity group 0)we still follow the older method of looking at the packet count in alternate antenna Cc: Gabriel Tseng <Gabriel.Tseng@Atheros.com> Cc: Senthilkumar Balasubramanian <Senthilkumar.Balasubramanian@Atheros.com> Signed-off-by: Mohammed Shafi Shajakhan <mshajakhan@atheros.com> Signed-off-by: John W.

* ath9k_hw: define antenna diversity groupMohammed Shafi Shajakhan2011-05-16
| | | | | | | | | | | | | AR9285 belongs to diversity group 0 and AR9485 belongs to diversity group 2. Based on the diversity group we configure certain antenna diversity paramaters such as lna1_lna2_delta and fast diversity bias values. For AR9485 we have some gain table parameter which selects the gain table 0/1 for main and alternate antenna Cc: Gabriel Tseng <Gabriel.Tseng@Atheros.com> Cc: Senthilkumar Balasubramanian <Senthilkumar.Balasubramanian@Atheros.com> Signed-off-by: Mohammed Shafi Shajakhan <mshajakhan@atheros.com> Signed-off-by: John W.

* ath9k: avoid enabling interrupts while processing rxRajkumar Manoharan2011-05-10
| | | | | | | | | | | | The assumsion is that while processing ath9k tasklet, interrupts were already disabled and it will be enabled at the completion of ath9k tasklet. But whenever TSFOOR is raised, the driver configures the beacon timers after having received a beacon frame from the AP which inturn enables the interrupts.

| * ath9k: fix the return value of ath_stoprecvFelix Fietkau2011-04-19
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The patch 'ath9k_hw: fix stopping rx DMA during resets' added code to detect a condition where rx DMA was stopped, but the MAC failed to enter the idle state. This condition requires a hardware reset, however the return value of ath_stoprecv was 'true' in that case, which allowed it to skip the reset when issuing a fast channel change.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | During PHY errors, the MAC can sometimes fail to enter an idle state on older hardware (before AR9380) after an rx stop has been requested.

* | ath9k: configure beacons based on hw opmodeRajkumar Manoharan2011-04-07
|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Current ath9k code does not handle beacon timers on opmode specific. One such example is that a STA beacon config overwrites already configured AP vif's beacon timers during scan. On multi station vif case, configure beacon timers beased on primary vif selected. This also helps while moving back to single STA vif from multi STA vifs, where the power save is enabled and hw has to be reconfigured with proper beacon and bssid/aid. Otherwise connection poll will be triggered so frequently due to beacon loss. Signed-off-by: Rajkumar Manoharan <rmanoharan@atheros.com> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | We have seen several DMA races when we race against stopping and starting the PCU. I suspect that when we cannot stop the PCU we may hit some of these same races so warn against them for now but only when debugging (CONFIG_ATH_DEBUG) is enabled. If you run into this warning and are a developer, please fix the cause of the warning. The potential here, although I cannot prove yet, is that the DMA engine can be confused and start writing to a buffer that was already DMA'd before and at least the kernel assumes is not being accessed by hardware anymore.

* ath9k: fix regression which prevents chip sleep after CAB dataSenthil Balasubramanian2010-09-16
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The patch: commit 293dc5dfdbcc16cde06e40a688394cc8ab083e48 Author: Gabor Juhos <juhosg@openwrt.org> Date: Fri Jun 19 12:17:48 2009 +0200 ath9k: remove ath_rx_ps_back_to_sleep helper This helper only clears the SC_OP_WAIT_FOR_{BEACON,CAB} flags. Remove it and clear these flags directly in the approptiate places instead. Changes-licensed-under: ISC Signed-off-by: Gabor Juhos <juhosg@openwrt.org> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com> introduced a regression which forgot to lift the beacon flag after we received all broadcast and multicast data. This meant we never went to sleep consuming about ~650mW on idle. This pretty much broke power save completely. This patch has fixes for stable kernels [2.6.32+].

* 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 power save race conditionsLuis R. Rodriguez2010-09-16
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | ath9k has a race on putting the chip into network sleep and having registers read from hardware. The race occurs because although ath9k_ps_restore() locks its own callers it makes use of some variables which get altered in the driver at different code paths. The variables are the ps_enabled and ps_flags. This is easily reprodicible in large network environments when roaming with the wpa_supplicant simple bgscan. You'd get some 0xdeadbeef read out on certain registers such as: ath: timeout (100000 us) on reg 0x806c: 0xdeadbeef & 0x01f00000 != 0x00000000 ath: RX failed to go idle in 10 ms RXSM=0xdeadbeef ath: timeout (100000 us) on reg 0x7000: 0xdeadbeef & 0x00000003 != 0x00000000 ath: Chip reset failed The fix is to protect the ath9k_config(hw, IEEE80211_CONF_CHANGE_PS) calls with a spin_lock_irqsave() which will disable contendors for these variables from interrupt context, timers, re-entry from mac80211 on the same callback, and most importantly from ath9k_ps_restore() which is the only call which will put the device into network sleep.
