| | * [PATCH] ieee80211: Don't update network statistics from off-channel packets.James Ketrenos2006-03-17
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch fixes a problem in the ieee80211 probe response and beacon reception code that would use the packet statistics for a network even if they were received on a channel other than that which the network exists on. This causes a problem in overlapping channels where, for example, a strong AP on channel 2 could have its beacons received on channels 1 and 3, but at much lower signal levels. If scanning was done sequentially, this means the beacon received on channel 3 would update the AP's signal level as being much lower than it really is, which subsequently could cause that AP to be passed over and an alternate AP selected.

| | * [PATCH] ipw2200: switch to the new ipw2200-fw-3.0 image formatJames Ketrenos2006-03-17
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch modifies the driver to support the ipw2200-fw-3.0 image format. The 3.0 fw image does not add any new capabilities, but as a result of image format changes, it should fix two problems experienced by users: 1) Race conditions with the request_firmware interface and udev/hotplug are improved as only a single request_firmware call is now required to load the firmware and microcode (vs. 3 separate calls previously) 2) The monitor mode firmware (sniffer) is now packaged with the correct boot image so it can now function without frequent restarts. Note: Once you apply this patch, you will also need to upgrade your firmware image to the 3.0 version available from: http://ipw2200.sf.net/firmware.php Signed-off-by: James Ketrenos <jketreno@linux.intel.com> Signed-off-by: Zhu Yi <yi.zhu@intel.com> Signed-off-by: John W.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This forces one antenna or the other, if the background noise is significantly quieter in one than the other.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Set a meaningful silence threshold value (replacing our previous "0" default), which gets rid of the gratuitous "Link deterioration" notifications that we've been receiving from firmware. This notification feature tells the driver information to help it determine when to pre-emptively restart the firmware/ucode in anticipation of firmware errors! But since setting this new threshold, I haven't seen any such notifications. At least it keeps the logs a little less busy.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch does two things. It uses the parameter IW_QUAL_DBM which is new in WE-19 to cause signal level and noise to be reported in dBm by the wireless tools. It also defines the signal level as an unsigned integer so that the signal level will be reported by iwlist iface scan.

We need to be able to indicate to the upper layers that packets of a given priority can not be sent any more without halting transmission of all packets, and without rescheduling high priority packets down to the next priority level. So we return NETDEV_TX_BUSY in this case and rely on the stack would take care of rescheduling... which it apparently does immediately and consumes the CPU. This caused the ksoftirqd kernel thread consuming almost all the CPU... To put the code back to the way it was before we made these changes we put the call netif_queue_stop back in ipw_tx_skb. This effectively disables multiple priority based transmit queues for 802.11e, but given that its broken anyway...

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | As stated in a comment, the ipw2200 driver uses several routines that were borrowed from ieee80211_geo.c. As ipw2200 requires ieee80211, these routines are duplicated. The attached patch, which is sent as an attachment to preserve whitespace, converts ipw2200.c to use the ieee80211 versions, thereby reducing bloat in both the source and binary.

This patch implements the fix from the application note: when an oversized packet is reported it resets the RX state machine, dropping any currently pending packets.
