* ath9k: Implement an algorithm for Antenna diversity and combiningVasanthakumar Thiagarajan2010-09-07
| | | | | | | | | | This algorithm chooses the best main and alt lna out of LNA1, LNA2, LNA1+LNA2 and LNA1-LNA2 to improve rx for single chain chips(AR9285). This would greatly improve rx when there is only one antenna is connected with AR9285. Signed-off-by: Vasanthakumar Thiagarajan <vasanth@atheros.com> Signed-off-by: John W.

* ath9k: fix spurious MIC failure reportsFelix Fietkau2010-08-31
| | | | | | | | | | | | | According to the hardware documentation, the MIC failure bit is only valid if the frame was decrypted using a valid TKIP key and is not a fragment. In some setups I've seen hardware-reported MIC failures on an AP that was configured for CCMP only, so it's clear that additional checks are necessary.

* ath9k: fix erased ieee80211_rx_status.mactimeJan Friedrich2010-08-04
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | ath9k_rx_skb_preprocess nulls rxs and the mactime is never set again - mactime is always 0. This causes problems in IBSS mode. ieee80211_rx_bss_info uses mactime to decide if an IBSS merge is needed. Without this patch the merge is triggered by each beacon received. This can be recognized by the "beacon TSF higher than local TSF - IBSS merge with BSSID" log message accompanying each beacon. This problem was not completely fixed in commit a6d2055b02dde1067075795274672720baadd3ca and is not a stable kernel fix. It is solely intended for wireless-testing.

* ath9k_hw: remove a useless function for setting the mac addressFelix Fietkau2010-06-14
| | | | | | | | | ath9k_hw_setmac() only copies the mac address it is called with into common->macaddr, yet in all call sites, the supplied mac address pointer is already common->macaddr. Signed-off-by: Felix Fietkau <nbd@openwrt.org> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>
* ath9k: fix extending the rx timestamp with the hardware TSFFelix Fietkau2010-06-14
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | AR5416 and all newer chipsets use a 32 bit rx timestamp, so there is no need to keep the 15 bit timestamp extending logic around. This patch removes ath9k_hw_extend_tsf (replaced by a call to ath9k_hw_gettsf64), and reduces the frequency of TSF reads, which can improve performance in some cases. This change also has the side effect of making rx timestamps more accurate. Signed-off-by: Felix Fietkau <nbd@openwrt.org> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>
* ath9k_hw: inform ANI calibration when scanningLuis R. Rodriguez2010-06-14
| | | | | | | | | | | The new ANI implementation will use this to skip ANI calibration upon a scan. This cannot be ported to the older ANI implementation unless default ANI values from the ANI are also used upon a scan. This is essentially what one of the things thenew ANI does.

* ath9k: fix dma sync in rx pathMing Lei2010-06-04
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | If buffer is to be accessed by cpu after dma is over, but between dma mapping and dma unmapping, we should use dma_sync_single_for_cpu to sync the buffer between cpu with device. And dma_sync_single_for_device is used to let device gain the buffer again. v2: Felix pointed out dma_sync_single_for_device is needed to return buffer to device if an unsuccessful status bit check is found.

* ath9k: allocate tx and rx status information on stackFelix Fietkau2010-03-31
| | | | | | | | | | | | | ath_tx_status and ath_rx_status data are only necessary for a short time, until they have been processed and converted into mac80211 data structures. Because of that, it makes no sense to keep them tied to the DMA descriptor, that only wastes precious memory. This patch allocates the data on stack in the functions that call the conversion functions from ath9k_hw. Signed-off-by: Felix Fietkau <nbd@openwrt.org> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>
* ath9k: split out access to rx status informationFelix Fietkau2010-03-31
| | | | | | | | | | This patch passes in a pointer to the ath_rx_status data structure for functions that need it, instead of letting them grab it directly from the ath_desc struct.

* ath9k_common: add new module to share 802.11n driver helpersLuis R. Rodriguez2009-11-11
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | ath9k and ath9k_htc share a lot of common hardware characteristics. They only differ in that ath9k_htc works with a target CPU and ath9k works directly with the hardware. ath9k_htc will do *some* things in the firmware, but a lot of others on the host. The common 802.11n hardware code is already shared through the ath9k_hw module. Common helpers amongst all Atheros drivers can use the ath module, this includes ath5k and ar9170 as users. But there is some common driver specific helpers which are not exactly hardware code which ath9k and ath9k_htc can share. We'll be using ath9k_common for this to avoid bloating the ath module and the common 802.11n hardware module ath9k_hw. We start by sharing skb pre and post processing in preparation for a hand off to mac80211. Signed-off-by: Luis R. Rodriguez <lrodriguez@atheros.com> Signed-off-by: John W.

* ath9k: avoid the copy skb->cb on every RX'd skbLuis R. Rodriguez2009-11-11
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The skb->cb (control buffer, 48 bytes) is available to the skb upon skb allocation. You can fill it up imediately after skb allocation. ath9k was copying onto the skb->cb the data from the processed skb for mac80211 from a stack struct ieee80211_rx_status structure. This is unnecessary, instead use the skb->cb for the rx status immediately after the skb becomes available and DMA synched. Additionally, avoid the copy of the skb->cb also for virtual wiphys as skb_copy() will copy over the skb->cb for us as well. Signed-off-by: Luis R.
