* ath9k: Add support for multiple virtual AP interfacesJouni Malinen2009-03-27
| | | | | | | | | This patch fixes the TSF offset calculation for staggered Beacon frames and sets ATH_BCBUF back to the earlier value 4 to enable multi-BSS configurations of up to four BSSes.

* ath9k: Virtual wiphy pause/unpause functionalityJouni Malinen2009-03-05
| | | | | | | | | | Allow virtual wiphys to be paused/unpaused to allow off-channel operations. Pause will stop all TX queues for the wiphy and move the STA into power save mode if in managed mode. Unpause wakes up the TX queues and notifies the AP that the STA woke up if in managed mode. Signed-off-by: Jouni Malinen <jouni.malinen@atheros.com> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>
* ath9k: Add support for multiple secondary virtual wiphysJouni Malinen2009-03-05
| | | | | | | | | | The new struct ath_softc::sec_wiphy array is used to store information about virtual wiphys and select which wiphy is used in calls to mac80211. Each virtual wiphy will be assigned a different MAC address based on the virtual wiphy index. Signed-off-by: Jouni Malinen <jouni.malinen@atheros.com> Signed-off-by: John W.

* ath9k: Cleanup multiple VIF processingJouni Malinen2009-03-05
| | | | | | | | | | | Replace the internal sc_vaps array and index values by using vif pointer from mac80211. Allow multiple VIPs to be registered. Though, number of beaconing VIFs is still limited by ATH_BCBUF (currently 1). Multiple virtual STAs support is not yet complete, but at least the data structures should now be able to handle this.

* ath9k: Handle TSF properly for AP modeSujith2009-03-05
| | | | | | | | | | | | The TSF has to be reset only once, upon bringing the interface up in AP mode. For any beacon reconfigure calls after that, resetting the TSF results in incorrect beacon generation. The only exception is a change in the beacon interval, which is indicated to the driver by mac80211 through IEEE80211_CONF_CHANGE_BEACON_INTERVAL, handle this properly.

* ath9k: Don't reset TSF after scanning automaticallyAlina Friedrichsen2009-02-27
| | | | | | | | | | | | | Reset automatically the TSF on re-enabling beaconing after scanning in IBSS mode causes several problems. For example a new created IBSS network can't age before an other node has joined, because scans are done automatically in that case. And several other strange bugs more... The TSF reset is done manually in the higher level mac80211 code in the cases were it's needed, so we don't need to do it here.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This should fix the SW-IOMMU bounce buffer starvation seen ok kernel.org bugzilla 11811: http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=11811 Users on MacBook Pro 3.1/MacBook v2 would see something like: DMA: Out of SW-IOMMU space for 4224 bytes at device 0000:0b:00.0 Unfortunately its only easy to trigger on MacBook Pro 3.1/MacBook v2 so far so its difficult to debug (even with swiotlb=force). We were pci_unmap_single()'ing less bytes than what we called for with pci_map_single() and as such we were starving the swiotlb from its 64MB amount of bounce buffers. We remain consistent and now always use sc->rxbufsize for RX. While at it we update the beacon DMA maps as well to only use the data portion of the skb, previous to this we were pci_map_single()'ing more data for beaconing than what we tell the hardware it can use, therefore pushing more iotlb abuse. Still not sure why this is so easily triggerable on MacBook Pro 3.1, it may be the hardware configuration tends to use more memory > 3GB mark for DMA.

| | | | | | | | | | | Use TX control flag IEEE80211_TX_CTL_ASSIGN_SEQ as a request to update the seq# for the frames. This will likely require some further cleanup to get seq# correctly for Beacons vs. other frames and also potentially for multiple BSSes.
