* wl12xx: Switch to a threaded interrupt handlerIdo Yariv2011-03-03
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | To achieve maximal throughput, it is very important to react to interrupts as soon as possible. Currently the interrupt handler wakes up a worker for handling interrupts in process context. A cleaner and more efficient design would be to request a threaded interrupt handler. This handler's priority is very high, and can do blocking operations such as SDIO/SPI transactions. Some work can be deferred, mostly calls to mac80211 APIs (ieee80211_rx_ni and ieee80211_tx_status). By deferring such work to a different worker, we can keep the irq handler thread more I/O responsive. In addition, on multi-core systems the two threads can be scheduled on different cores, which will improve overall performance. The use of WL1271_FLAG_IRQ_PENDING & WL1271_FLAG_IRQ_RUNNING was changed. For simplicity, always query the FW for more pending interrupts. Since there are relatively long bursts of interrupts, the extra FW status read overhead is negligible. In addition, this enables registering the IRQ handler with the ONESHOT option.

* wl12xx: Do end-of-transactions transfers only if neededIdo Yariv2011-03-03
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | On newer hardware revisions, there is no need to write the host's counter at the end of a RX transaction. The same applies to writing the number of packets at the end of a TX transaction. It is generally a good idea to avoid unnecessary SDIO/SPI transfers. Throughput and CPU usage are improved when avoiding these. Send the host's RX counter and the TX packet count only if needed, based on the hardware revision.

* wl12xx: fix identification of beacon packets (debug)Eliad Peller2011-02-22
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | for debugging purposes, wl12xx determines whether a rx packet is a beacon packet. however, it checks only the frame_control subtype without checking the actual packet type, which leads to false identification in some cases. use ieee80211_is_beacon instead.

* wl12xx: move to new firmware (6.1.3.50.49)Eliad Peller2011-02-08
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch adds support for the new wl12xx firmware (Rev 6.1.3.50.49) Since this fw is not backward compatible with previous fw versions, a new fw (with different name) is being fetched. (the patch is big because it contains all the required fw api changes. splitting it into multiple patches will result in corrupted intermediate commits) Signed-off-by: Eliad Peller <eliad@wizery.com> Reviewed-by: Luciano Coelho <coelho@ti.com> Signed-off-by: Luciano Coelho <coelho@ti.com>

* wl12xx: fix some sparse warningsEliad Peller2011-01-24
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Note that wl1271_write32() calls cpu_to_le32() by itself, so calling wl1271_write32(addr, cpu_to_le32(val)) is in fact a bug on BE systems.

* cfg80211: Extend channel to frequency mapping for 802.11jBruno Randolf2011-01-21
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Extend channel to frequency mapping for 802.11j Japan 4.9GHz band, according to IEEE802.11 section 17.3.8.3.2 and Annex J. Because there are now overlapping channel numbers in the 2GHz and 5GHz band we can't map from channel to frequency without knowing the band. This is no problem as in most contexts we know the band. In places where we don't know the band (and WEXT compatibility) we assume the 2GHz band for channels below 14. This patch does not implement all channel to frequency mappings defined in 802.11, it's just an extension for 802.11j 20MHz channels. 5MHz and 10MHz channels as well as 802.11y channels have been omitted. The following drivers have been updated to reflect the API changes: iwl-3945, iwl-agn, iwmc3200wifi, libertas, mwl8k, rt2x00, wl1251, wl12xx. The drivers have been compile-tested only.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Rework cmd and acx interfaces, it was just too confusing earlier. Now all commands need to contain all the needed headers, either just cmd headers or both cmd and acx headers. This accomplish to remove the extra copy done for each command. The interfaces are now properly documented as well. Also try to make all commands safe for DMA transfers. I might have missed some, but most of them should be fixed now. And this is not all!

* wl12xx: add driverKalle Valo2009-05-06
wl12xx is a driver for TI wl1251 802.11 chipset designed for embedded devices, supporting both SDIO and SPI busses. Currently the driver supports only SPI. Adding support 1253 (the 5 GHz version) should be relatively easy.
