* mwifiex: preprocess packets from TX queueZhaoyang Liu2015-03-16
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | During profiling, we discovered that driver remains idle for time when pakcet is downloaded to FW but no TX_DONE has been received i.e. while data_sent is true. This patch adds enhancement to TX routine where we preprocess packets from TX queue, make them ready for TX and add them to separate TX queue.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch removes BA setup helper routines mwifiex_is_bastream_setup and mwifiex_is_amsdu_in_ampdu_allowed. Current code will use two functions to check bastream setup and amsdu in ampdu. This patch change these functions to flags, thus avoiding redundant spin_lock check while dequeuing TX packets.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | While TDLS link is being setup, few packets from this station to peer station may be buffered at AP. It may happen that once TDLS link is setup, packets sent from station to peer on direct link get delivered before traffic from AP arrives at peer station. This results into packet reordering issue at peer station. To avoid this, we hold data packets destined to TDLS peer during TDLS setup. These packets are moved to temperory TDLS TX queue. Upon successful TDLS setup, they are moved to RA list created for this peer. Upon failure, packets are moved back to AP's RA list for that particular TID.

* mwifiex: hold proper locks when accessing ra_list / bss_prio listsAndreas Fenkart2013-04-08
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Not locking ra_list when dequeuing packets creates race conditions. When adding a packet 'tx_pkts_queued' is modified before setting highest_priority_queue. If in-between the main loop starts, it will see a packet queued (tx_pkts_queued > 0) but will not find it, since max prio is not set yet. Depending on the scheduling, the thread trying to add the packet could complete and restore the situation. But this is not something to rely on. Another race condition exists, if a new packet, exceeding current max prio is added. If concurrently a packet is dequeued, the newly set max prio will be overwritten with the value of the dequeued packet. This can occur, because selecting a packet and modifying the max prio is not atomic. The result in an infinite loop unless, a new packet is added that has at least the priority of the hidden packet. Same applies to bss_prio_tbl. Forward iteration is no proper lock-free technique and provides no protection from calls to list_del. Although BSS are currently not added/removed dynamically, this must not be the case in the future. Hence always hold proper locks when accessing those lists.

* mwifiex: fix infinite loop by removing NO_PKT_PRIO_TIDAndreas Fenkart2013-04-08
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Using NO_PKT_PRIO_TID and tx_pkts_queued to check for an empty state, can lead to a contradictory state, resulting in an infinite loop. Currently queueing and dequeuing of packets is not synchronized, and can happen concurrently. While tx_pkts_queued is incremented when adding a packet, max prio is set to NO_PKT when the WMM list is empty. If a packet is added right after the check for empty, but before setting max prio to NO_PKT, that packet is trapped and creates an infinite loop. Because of the new packet, tx_pkts_queued is at least 1, indicating wmm lists are not empty. Opposing that max prio is NO_PKT, which means "skip this wmm queue, it has no packets". The infinite loop results, because the main loop checks the wmm lists for not empty via tx_pkts_queued, but for dequeing it uses max_prio to see if it can skip current list. This will never end, unless a new packet is added which will restore max prio to the level of the trapped packet. The solution here is to rely on tx_pkts_queued solely for checking wmm queue to be empty, and drop the NO_PKT define. It does not address the locking issue.

* mwifiex: add multi-queue supportAvinash Patil2012-11-14
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch adds support for multiple TX queues inside mwifiex driver. Four different queues according to WMM access categories are defined for each virtual interface. When a packet is received from netdev for transmission, tx pending count for particular queue is incremented and if tx pending count has reached upper water-mark, this queue is stopped instead of stopping all queues. Similarly when a packet is successfully transmitted from device, tx pending count is decremented per queue and if pending count falls below lower water-mark, queue operations are again resumed. This ensures that not all tranmission is blocked if traffic with particular TOS value suddenly increases. Also wake all queues after association/IBSS_join/uAP_BSS_start to enable traffic on all queues.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | "adapter->bss_prio_tbl[j].bss_prio_head" points to linked list of interfaces with priority 'j'. "bss_prio_tbl[j].bss_prio_cur" is supposed to point to next interface every time the routine for dequeuing the packet is called. This ensures that each interface gets fair chance. Currently we have AP and station interfaces with priority '0'. Therefore "adapter->bss_prio_tbl[0].bss_prio_cur" should alternately point to AP and station nodes. Since "bss_prio_cur" is not correctly updated, for each packet picked for AP, two packets are picked for station interface. This patch fixes the problem by correctly updating "bss_prio_cur".

* mwifiex: add 11n Block Ack support for uAPAvinash Patil2012-08-06
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch adds support for handling BA request and BA setup events for AP interface. RA list is marked as either 11n enabled or disabled from station's capabilities in association request. BA setup is initiated only after some specific number of packets for particular RA list are transmitted.

* mwifiex: fix WPS eapol handshake failureStone Piao2012-06-22
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | After association, STA will go through eapol handshake with WPS enabled AP. It's observed that WPS handshake fails with some 11n AP. The reason for the failure is that the eapol packet is sent via 11n frame aggregation. The eapol packet should be sent directly without 11n aggregation. This patch fixes the problem by adding WPS session control while dequeuing Tx packets for transmission.

* mwifiex: fix 11n rx packet drop issueStone Piao2012-06-22
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently we check the sequence number of last packet received against start_win. If a sequence hole is detected, start_win is updated to next sequence number. Since the rx sequence number is initialized to 0, a corner case exists when BA setup happens immediately after association. As 0 is a valid sequence number, start_win gets increased to 1 incorrectly. This causes the first packet with sequence number 0 being dropped. Initialize rx sequence number as 0xffff and skip adjusting start_win if the sequence number remains 0xffff. The sequence number will be updated once the first packet is received.
