* led-class: always implement blinkingJohannes Berg2010-11-12
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently, blinking LEDs can be awkward because it is not guaranteed that all LEDs implement blinking. The trigger that wants it to blink then needs to implement its own timer solution. Rather than require that, add led_blink_set() API that triggers can use. This function will attempt to use hw blinking, but if that fails implements a timer for it. To stop blinking again, brightness_set() also needs to be wrapped into API that will stop the software blink. As a result of this, the timer trigger becomes a very trivial one, and hopefully we can finally see triggers using blinking as well because it's always easy to use.

| | * rt2x00: Move watchdog work to kernel work_queueIvo van Doorn2010-10-11
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The watchdog function must run on a work_queue which is independent of any other work inside rt2x00. The main reasons, being that a broken work on the mac80211 work_queue can otherwise prevent the watchdog to run (while in fact the watchdog could fix the issue). And on the other hand because the watchdog relies on the completion of the completion handlers for RX/TX which for the USB case, occur on the mac80211 workqueue. This fixes some "Queue %d failed to flush" errors, which were caused by the watchdog function waiting on the completion handler which was scheduled to run right after the watchdog.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | A lot of functions accept a struct rt2x00_dev combined with either a struct queue_entry or struct data_queue argument. This can be simplified by only passing on the queue/entry argument. In cases where rt2x00_dev and a sk_buff are send together, we can send the queue_entry instead. rt2x00usb_alloc_urb and rt2x00usb_free_urb have a bit of vague naming. Instead they allocate all the data which belongs to a rt2x00 data queue entry.

However, this will limit the usefulness of the reported tx rate since the reported rate will be the one specified in the TXWI of the first frame and thus it is not possible to reliably caculate the number of retrys by substracting the reported tx rate from the tx rate in the TXWI. To fix this issue, only report the successful rate for frames that were not meant to be aggregated but ended up in an aggregate. Example: Frame A (MCS7, AMPDU=1) B (MCS7, AMPDU=1) C (MCS12, AMDPU=0, PROBE_RATE) Although frame C shoudn't be aggregated the hw might sill put it into an AMPDU together with A and B. If the transmission succeeds the tx status will contain MCS7 for all three frames. In that case we should only report MCS7 as success rate and avoid reporting MCS12-MCS8 as failed tx attempts as this will affect the future rate control decisions. This oddity might strike us in other scenarious as well but the most common "wrong" report happened for frames used to probe a different tx rate. This improves the rate control decisions notable.

Within TX_STA_FIFO we have a 4-bit field named PACKETID, which is currently used to encode the queue id. The queue ID is however limited to values from 0 to 3, which means 2 bits are sufficient to encode the value. With the remaining 2 bits we can encode a partial queue_entry index number. The value of PACKETID is not allowed to become 0, with the queue ID ranging from 0 to 3, at least one of the bits for the entry identification must be 1. That leaves us with 3 possible values we can still encode in the bits. Altough this doesn't allow 100% accurate matching of the TX_STA_FIFO queue to a queue_entry structure, it at least improves the accuracy. This allows us to better detect if we have missed the TX_STA_FIFO report, which in turn reduces the number of watchdog warnings regarding the TX status timeout.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | During rx, rt2x00lib calls rt2800pci_fill_rxdone to read the RX descriptor. At that time the skb is already dma unmapped but no new skb was dma mapped for this entry again. However, rt2800pci_fill_rxdone also moves the hw rx queue index, marking this entry to be available for reuse. Since no new skb was dma mapped and also the previous skb was unmapped this might lead to strange hw behavior. To fix this issue move the hw rx queue index increment to rt2800pci_clear_entry where a new skb was already dma mapped and can be safely used by the hw.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Fix a check for dynamic SM PS mode in the STAs HT caps. Since a value of 3 means "SM PS disabled" the previous check assumed in that case that "dynamic SM PS" was enabled and as such prefixed every MCS>7 frame with a unnecessary RTS/CTS exchange. Also, the bit shift was done in the wrong direction. Signed-off-by: Helmut Schaa <helmut.schaa@googlemail.com> Signed-off-by: Ivo van Doorn <IvDoorn@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: John W.

| | * rt2x00: rework tx status handling in rt2800pciHelmut Schaa2010-10-05
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch changes the way tx status reports are handled by rt2800pci. Previously rt2800pci would sometimes lose tx status reports as the TX_STA_FIFO register is a fifo of 16 entries that can overflow in case we don't read it often/fast enough. Since interrupts are disabled in the device during the execution of the interrupt thread it happend sometimes under high network and CPU load that processing took too long and a few tx status reports were dropped by the hw. To fix this issue the TX_STA_FIFO register is read directly in the interrupt handler and stored in a kfifo which is large enough to hold all status reports of all used tx queues. To process the status reports a new tasklet txstatus_tasklet is used. Using the already used interrupt thread is not possible since we don't want to disable the TX_FIFO_STATUS interrupt while processing them and it is not possible to schedule the interrupt thread multiple times for execution. A tasklet instead can be scheduled multiple times which allows to leave the TX_FIFO_STATUS interrupt enabled while a previously scheduled tasklet is still executing. In short: All other interrupts are handled in the interrupt thread as before. Only the TX_FIFO_STATUS interrupt is partly handled in the interrupt handler and finished in the according tasklet. One drawback of this patch is that it duplicates some code from rt2800lib. However, that can be cleaned up in the future once the rt2800usb and rt2800pci tx status handling converge more. Using this patch on a Ralink RT3052 embedded board gives me a reliable wireless connection even under high CPU and network load. I've transferred several gigabytes without any queue lockups.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Previously rt2x00 was always updating all erp related config variables even though mac80211 might only have changed one. Hence, pass the changed flags to the config_erp driver callback so that the driver can limit the changes to the correct values. This fixes an issue in AP mode where the beacon interval is not initialized (and thus zero) but still sent to the hardware causing an interrupt storm on rt2800pci hanging the system.

The effect is that the diversity evaluation will never start. I can see two solutions, use the 'flag' in the test condition or revert the local flag change. My attached patch took alternative two. Then the evaluation start but it will still not switch antenna. The problem is a code section in rt2x00lib_config_antenna (). The effect of that code section is that any change the diversity function perform will be effectively shorten and no antenna selection command issued.

We can easily split this task by calling rt2x00usb_kill_tx_queue, sleep for a short period and invoke the TX status reporting function. By adding the sleep() to the kill_entry we make sure that even during shutdown we guarentee the entry has been killed when the function returns. To make this work correctly the interrupt handlers have to be updated to prevent checking for the RADIO_ENABLED flag too early which prevents the ownership of the entry to be reset. Additionally a check for the DEVICE_PRESENT flag is not required but is nice to prevent race conditions when the device was unplugged. Additionally rather then calling rt2x00usb_work_txdone() for status reporting we let the driver perform the TX status reporting first. If this is not sufficient then rt2x00usb_work_txdone() will still be used to cleanup the mess.

| | * rt2x00: Split watchdog check into a DMA and STATUS timeoutIvo van Doorn2010-08-31

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.
