* ath9k: Enable TIM timer interrupt only when needed.Senthil Balasubramanian2010-02-08
| | | | | | | | | | | The TIM timer interrupt is enabled even before the ACK of nullqos is received which is unnecessary. Also clean up the CONF_PS part of config callback properly for better readability. Signed-off-by: Senthil Balasubramanian <senthilkumar@atheros.com> Signed-off-by: John W.

* mac80211_hwsim: add fake hw scan handlerJohannes Berg2010-02-08
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | For debugging hardware scan trigger/complete functionality, it was useful to have code in hwsim that pretends to do a hardware scan. This code could be extended to actually do the scan, but for now it was sufficient for me to only pretend. Since hwsim was written to ease debugging, it only makes sense to add it to it permanently.

| * b43: Fix throughput regressionLarry Finger2010-02-03
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Commit c7ab5ef9bcd281135c21b4732c9be779585181be entitled "b43: implement short slot and basic rate handling" reduced the transmit throughput for my BCM4311 device from 18 Mb/s to 0.7 Mb/s. The basic rate handling portion is OK, the problem is in the short slot handling. Prior to this change, the short slot enable/disable routines were never called. Experimentation showed that the critical part was changing the value at offset 0x0010 in the shared memory. This is supposed to contain the 802.11 Slot Time in usec, but if it is changed from its initial value of zero, performance is destroyed. On the other hand, changing the value in the MMIO register corresponding to the Interframe Slot Time increased performance from 18 to 22 Mb/s. A BCM4306/3 also shows dramatic improvement of the transmit rate from 5.3 to 19.0 Mb/s. Other changes in the patch include removal of the magic number for the MMIO register, and allowing the slot time to be set for any PHY operating in the 2.4 GHz band. Previously, the routine was executed only for G PHYs.

| * ath9k: fix beacon slot/buffer leakFelix Fietkau2010-01-19
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When cleaning up beacon buffers and slots, ath9k currently checks if sc->ah->opmode is set to a beacon related mode before cleaning up buffers. An unfortunate ordering of interface up/down commands can lead to sc->ah->opmode being set to monitor mode, while there are AP interfaces present on the same wiphy. Always cleaning up beacon buffers if present fixes this issue. Signed-off-by: Felix Fietkau <nbd@openwrt.org> Cc: stable@kernel.org Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The TKIP key update callback is called from the RX path, where the driver mutex is already locked. This results in a circular locking bug. Avoid this by removing the lock. Johannes noted that there is a separate bug: The callback still breaks on SDIO hardware, because SDIO hardware access needs to sleep, but we are not allowed to sleep in the callback due to mac80211's RCU locking.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | ath9k currently forces hw->max_rate_tries to 4 to work around rate control inefficiencies. This has some negative side effects, such as rate_control_send_low also using a maximum of 4 tries, which could negatively affect reliability of unicast management frames. This patch pushes the retry limit to the rate control instead, and allows it to use more tries on the last stage to prevent unnecessary packet loss.
