* rt2x00: Merge rt2x00ht.c contents in other files.Gertjan van Wingerde2011-04-19
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The two functions that are in rt2x00ht.c can be much better placed closer to the places where the call-sites of these functions are (one in rt2x00config.c and one in rt2x00queue.c) allowing us to make these functions static. Also, conditional compilations doesn't seem to be necessary anymore as 802.11n support is quite common nowadays. This makes the code a bit easier readable and searchable.

* rt2x00: Decrease association time for USB devicesIvo van Doorn2011-04-19
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When powersaving is enabled, assocaition times are very high (for WPA2 networks, the time can easily be around the 3 seconds). This is caused, because the flushing of the queues takes too much time. Without the flushing callback mac80211 assumes a timeout of 100ms while scanning. Limit all flush waiting loops to the same maximum. We can apply this maximum by passing the drop status to the driver, which makes sure the driver performs extra actions during the waiting for the queue to become empty. After these changes, association times fall within the healthy range of ~0.6 seconds with powersaving enabled. The difference between association time between powersaving enabled and disabled is now only ~0.1 second (which can also be due to the measuring method).

* rt2x00: fix queue timeout checksJohannes Stezenbach2011-04-19
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Add a timestamp to each queue entry which is updated whenever the status of the entry changes, and remove the per-queue timestamps. The previous check was incorrect and caused both false positives and false negatives. With the corrected check it comes apparent that the TX status usually times out on rt2800usb unless there is sufficient traffic (i.e. the next TX will complete the previous TX status).

* rt2x00: Split rt2x00dev->flagsIvo van Doorn2011-04-19
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The number of flags defined for the rt2x00dev->flags field, has been growing over the years. Currently we are approaching the maximum number of bits which are available in the field. A secondary problem, is that one part of the field are initialized only during boot, because the driver requirements are initialized or device requirements are loaded from the EEPROM. In both cases, the flags are fixed and will not change during device operation. The other flags are the device state, and will change frequently. So far this resulted in the fact that for some flags, the atomic bit accessors are used, while for the others the non-atomic variants are used. By splitting the flags up into a "flags" and "cap_flags" we can put all flags which are fixed inside "cap_flags". This field can then be read non-atomically. In the "flags" field we keep the device state, which is going to be read atomically. This adds more room for more flags in the future, and sanitizes the field access methods.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Since commit d1c3a37ceeb1a5ea02991a0476355f1a1d3b3e83 ("mac80211: clarify alignment docs, fix up alignment") removed the requirement for a 4-byte aligned payload rt2x00queue_align_payload is obsolete as mac80211 will align the payload when it passes the frame to the net stack. As a result we can remove the call to rt2x00queue_align_payload in the rx path and since that's the last user we can remove rt2x00queue_align_payload altogether. One advantage is that we save some alignment operations for frames that don't need to be aligned (for example beause they are not passed to the net stack).

* rt2x00: Refactor beacon code to make use of start- and stop_queueHelmut Schaa2011-01-31
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch allows to dynamically remove beaconing interfaces without shutting beaconing down on all interfaces. The only place to start and stop beaconing are now the start- and stop_queue callbacks. Hence, we can remove some register writes during interface bring up (config_intf) and only write the correct sync mode to the register there. When multiple beaconing interfaces are present we should enable beaconing as soon as mac80211 enables beaconing on at least one of them. The beacon queue gets stopped when the last beaconing interface was stopped by mac80211. Therefore, introduce another interface counter to keep track ot the number of enabled beaconing interfaces and start or stop the beacon queue accordingly. To allow single interfaces to stop beaconing, add a new driver callback clear_beacon to clear a single interface's beacon without affecting the other interfaces. Don't overload the clear_entry callback for clearing beacons as that would introduce additional overhead (check for each TX queue) into the clear_entry callback which is used on the drivers TX/RX hotpaths. Furthermore, the write beacon callback doesn't need to enable beaconing anymore but since beaconing should be disabled while a new beacon is written or cleared we still disable beacon generation and enable it afterwards again in the driver specific callbacks. However, beacon related interrupts should not be disabled/enabled here, that's solely done from the start- and stop queue callbacks. It would be nice to stop the beacon queue just before the beacon update and enable it afterwards in rt2x00queue itself instead of the current implementation that relies on the driver doing the right thing. However, since start- and stop_queue are mutex protected we cannot use them for atomic beacon updates.

* rt2x00: Fix WMM Queue namingIvo van Doorn2010-12-13

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The watchdog for rt2800usb triggers frequently causing all URB's to be canceled often enough to interrupt the normal TX flow. More research indicated that not the URB upload to the USB host were hanging, but instead the TX status reports. To correctly detect what is going on, we introduce Q_INDEX_DMA_DONE which is an index counter between Q_INDEX_DONE and Q_INDEX and indicates if the frame has been transfered to the device. This also requires the rt2x00queue timeout functions to be updated to differentiate between a DMA timeout (time between Q_INDEX and Q_INDEX_DMA_DONE timeout) and a STATUS timeout (time between Q_INDEX_DMA_DONE and Q_INDEX_DONE timeout) All Q_INDEX_DMA_DONE code was taken from the RFC from Helmut Schaa <helmut.schaa@googlemail.com> for the implementation for watchdog for rt2800pci.

It is best to manage this completely from rt2x00queue.c. For safely looping through all entries in the queue, the function rt2x00queue_for_each_entry is added which will walk from from a index range in a safe manner. This also fixes rt2x00usb which walked the entries list from 0 to length to kill each entry (killing entries must be done from Q_INDEX_DONE to Q_INDEX to enforce TX status reporting to occur in the correct order.

| * rt2x00: Move USB tx/rx done handling to workqueueIvo van Doorn2010-08-16
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Move all TX and RX completion handling into a work structure, which is handeled on the mac80211 workqueue. This simplifies the code in rt2x00lib since it no longer needs to check if the device is USB or PCI to decide which mac80211 function should be used. In the watchdog some changes are needed since it can no longer rely on the TX completion function to be run while looping through the entries. (Both functions now work on the same workqueue, so this would deadlock). So the watchdog now waits for the URB to return, and handle the TX status report directly. As a side-effect, the debugfs entry for the RX queue now correctly displays the positions of the INDEX and INDEX_DONE counters. This also implies that it is not possible to perform checks like queue_empty() and queue_full() on the RX queue. Signed-off-by: Ivo van Doorn <IvDoorn@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: John W.

|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | These changes may be slightly safer in some instances. There are other kzalloc calls with a multiply, but those calls are typically "small fixed #" * sizeof(some pointer)" and those are not converted.

* rt2x00: Implement watchdog monitoringIvo van Doorn2010-07-12
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | Implement watchdog monitoring for USB devices (PCI support can be added later). This will determine if URBs being uploaded to the hardware are actually returning. Both rt2500usb and rt2800usb have shown that URBs being uploaded can remain hanging without being released by the hardware. By using this watchdog, a queue can be reset when this occurs. For rt2800usb it has been tested that the connection is preserved even though this interruption. Signed-off-by: Ivo van Doorn <IvDoorn@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: John W.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The handling of tx descriptors for beacons can be simplified by updating write_tx_desc implementations of each driver to write directly to the queue entry descriptor instead of to a provided memory area. This is also a preparation for further clean ups where descriptors are properly reserved in the skb instead of fiddling with the skb data pointer.
