Within mac80211, we often need to copy the rx status into skb->cb. This is wasteful, as drivers could be building it in there to start with. This patch changes the API so that drivers are expected to pass the RX status in skb->cb, now accessible as IEEE80211_SKB_RXCB(skb). It also updates all drivers to pass the rx status in there, but only by making them memcpy() it into place before the call to the receive function (ieee80211_rx(_irqsafe)). Each driver can now be optimised on its own schedule. Signed-off-by: NJohannes Berg <johannes@sipsolutions.net> Signed-off-by: NJohn W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>

Some hardware require L2 padding between header and payload because both must be aligned to a 4-byte boundary. This hardware also is easier during the RX path since we no longer need to move the entire payload but rather only the header to remove the padding (mac80211 only wants the payload to be 4-byte aligned).

In a scenario where there isn't any firmware available, we will have a double kfree of rt2x00dev->spec.channels_info when ieee80211_register_hw returns an error status inside rt2x00lib_probe_hw. The problem is that if ieee80211_register_hw fails, we call rt2x00lib_remove_hw twice: * first inside rt2x00lib_probe_hw upon failure of ieee80211_register_hw * error status is returned to rt2x00lib_probe_dev, which then sees it and calls in this case rt2x00lib_remove_dev that will again run rt2x00lib_remove_hw Prevent this avoiding calling rt2x00lib_remove_hw inside rt2x00lib_probe_hw Problem was detected with CONFIG_DEBUG_PAGEALLOC=y, CONFIG_SLUB_DEBUG=y, CONFIG_SLUB_DEBUG_ON=y, that dumps this with no firmware available: rt61pci 0000:00:07.0: PCI INT A -> GSI 19 (level, low) -> IRQ 19 wmaster0 (rt61pci): not using net_device_ops yet phy0: Selected rate control algorithm 'pid' phy0: Failed to initialize wep: -2 phy0 -> rt2x00lib_probe_dev: Error - Failed to initialize hw. ============================================================================= BUG kmalloc-128: Object already free ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- INFO: Allocated in rt61pci_probe_hw+0x3e5/0x6e0 [rt61pci] age=340 cpu=0 pid=21 INFO: Freed in rt2x00lib_remove_hw+0x59/0x70 [rt2x00lib] age=0 cpu=0 pid=21 INFO: Slab 0xc13ac3e0 objects=23 used=10 fp=0xdd59f6e0 flags=0x400000c3 INFO: Object 0xdd59f6e0 @offset=1760 fp=0xdd59f790 Bytes b4 0xdd59f6d0: 15 00 00 00 b2 8a fb ff 5a 5a 5a 5a 5a 5a 5a 5a ....².ûÿZZZZZZZZ Object 0xdd59f6e0: 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b kkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk Object 0xdd59f6f0: 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b kkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk Object 0xdd59f700: 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b kkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk Object 0xdd59f710: 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b kkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk Object 0xdd59f720: 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b kkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk Object 0xdd59f730: 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b kkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk Object 0xdd59f740: 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b kkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk Object 0xdd59f750: 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b a5 kkkkkkkkkkkkkkk¥ Redzone 0xdd59f760: bb bb bb bb »»»» Padding 0xdd59f788: 5a 5a 5a 5a 5a 5a 5a 5a ZZZZZZZZ Pid: 21, comm: stage1 Not tainted 2.6.29.1-desktop-1.1mnb #1 Call Trace: [<c01abbb3>] print_trailer+0xd3/0x120 [<c01abd37>] object_err+0x37/0x50 [<c01acf57>] __slab_free+0xe7/0x2f0 [<c01ad1de>] kfree+0x7e/0xd0 [<e0e4a239>] ? rt2x00lib_remove_hw+0x59/0x70 [rt2x00lib] [<e0e4a239>] ? rt2x00lib_remove_hw+0x59/0x70 [rt2x00lib] [<e0e4a239>] rt2x00lib_remove_hw+0x59/0x70 [rt2x00lib] [<e0e4acc7>] rt2x00lib_remove_dev+0x37/0x50 [rt2x00lib] [<e0e4b087>] rt2x00lib_probe_dev+0x1a7/0x3b0 [rt2x00lib] [<e0eb288f>] rt2x00pci_probe+0xdf/0x1ee [rt2x00pci] [<c026b9ee>] local_pci_probe+0xe/0x10 [<c026c750>] pci_device_probe+0x60/0x80 [<c02d5c2a>] driver_probe_device+0x9a/0x2e0 [<c02d5ef9>] __driver_attach+0x89/0x90 [<c02d541b>] bus_for_each_dev+0x4b/0x70 [<c026c690>] ? pci_device_remove+0x0/0x40 [<c02d59d9>] driver_attach+0x19/0x20 [<c02d5e70>] ? __driver_attach+0x0/0x90 [<c02d4cef>] bus_add_driver+0x1cf/0x2a0 [<c026c690>] ? pci_device_remove+0x0/0x40 [<c02d60c9>] driver_register+0x69/0x140 [<c026c9b0>] __pci_register_driver+0x40/0x80 [<e0ecc000>] ? rt61pci_init+0x0/0x19 [rt61pci] [<e0ecc017>] rt61pci_init+0x17/0x19 [rt61pci] [<c0101116>] do_one_initcall+0x26/0x1c0 [<c01ab90c>] ? slab_pad_check+0x3c/0x120 [<c01ab90c>] ? slab_pad_check+0x3c/0x120 [<c01ac8da>] ? check_object+0xda/0x210 [<c01b0026>] ? percpu_free+0x46/0x50 [<c01ad09e>] ? __slab_free+0x22e/0x2f0 [<c01b0026>] ? percpu_free+0x46/0x50 [<c01b0026>] ? percpu_free+0x46/0x50 [<c01b0026>] ? percpu_free+0x46/0x50 [<c01687ec>] ? stop_machine_destroy+0x3c/0x40 [<c015e515>] ? load_module+0xa5/0x1c50 [<e0ec5000>] ? rt61pci_eepromregister_read+0x0/0x40 [rt61pci] [<e0eb2000>] ? rt2x00pci_write_tx_data+0x0/0x90 [rt2x00pci] [<c03ac2fb>] ? mutex_lock+0xb/0x20 [<c03ac2fb>] ? mutex_lock+0xb/0x20 [<c017ad16>] ? tracepoint_update_probe_range+0x76/0xa0 [<c017ad6f>] ? tracepoint_module_notify+0x2f/0x40 [<c03b02ed>] ? notifier_call_chain+0x2d/0x70 [<c014f0ed>] ? __blocking_notifier_call_chain+0x4d/0x60 [<c014f11a>] ? blocking_notifier_call_chain+0x1a/0x20 [<c0160156>] sys_init_module+0x96/0x1d0 [<c019dad6>] ? sys_munmap+0x46/0x60 [<c0105546>] syscall_call+0x7/0xb FIX kmalloc-128: Object at 0xdd59f6e0 not freed rt61pci 0000:00:07.0: PCI INT A disabled rt61pci: probe of 0000:00:07.0 failed with error -2 Signed-off-by: NHerton Ronaldo Krzesinski <herton@mandriva.com.br> Acked-by: NIvo van Doorn <IvDoorn@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: NJohn W.

Indirect registers require multiple calls to the CSR register in order to access the indirect registers. This must be protected under a lock to prevent race conditions which could cause invalid data to be returned when reading from the indirect register or silent failures when writing data to the indirect register. USB drivers where already protected under a mutex, so rename the mutex and make PCI drivers use the mutex as well. This now means that BBP and RF registers are no longer accessible in interrupt context. That is not a bad situation since the slow behavior of accessing those registers means we don't _want_ to access them in interrupt context either.

With the new configuration handling, and more specifically splitting the configuration of the antenna from the normal configuration steps allowed a BUG_ON() to be triggered in the driver because the SW_DIVERSITY was send to the driver. This fixes that by catching the value early in rt2x00config.c and replacing it with a sensible value. This also fixes a problem where the antenna is not being initialized at all when the radio is enabled. Since it no longer is part of the mac80211 configuration the only place where rt2x00 configured it was the SW diversity handler. Obviously this is broken for all non-diversity hardware and breaks SW diversity due to a broken initialization. When the radio is enabled the antenna will be configured once as soon as the config() callback function is called. Signed-off-by: NIvo van Doorn <IvDoorn@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: NJohn W.

Some hardware configuration registers such as antenna and channel configuration can only be written when the radio is enabled. Previously, we didn't consider this, so some configuration items could be set inconsistently after reenabling the radio. This patch changes the config() handler to only reprogram the hardware when the radio is enabled. Configuration changes that are made while the radio is off are postponed until the radio is switched back on. We also leave the radio turned off during initialization and only enable it when requested by mac80211. This allows us to get rid of the DIRTY_CONFIG flag, because the device is now guaranteed to be completely initialized when brought up by mac80211.

Some of the flags should be accessed atomically to prevent race conditions. The flags that are most important are those that can change often and indicate the actual state of the device, queue or queue entry. The big flag rename was done to move all state flags to the same naming type as the other rt2x00dev flags and made sure all places where the flags were used were changed. ;) Thanks to Stephen for most of the queue flags updates, which fixes some of the most obvious consequences of the race conditions. Among those the notorious: rt2x00queue_write_tx_frame: Error - Arrived at non-free entry in the non-full queue 0. rt2x00queue_write_tx_frame: Error - Arrived at non-free entry in the non-full queue 0. rt2x00queue_write_tx_frame: Error - Arrived at non-free entry in the non-full queue 0.

rt2x00 will only perform configuration changes from mac80211 when the configuration option has changed. This means it keeps track of the current active configuration and will check these values when the config() callback function is used. However this causes breakage when the interface has been brought down and up again, since all stored active values aren't reset while the registers might have. This is for example the case with rt61pci antenna registers which will jump to invalid values when the interface has been started. To make sure a full configuration takes place after the start() callback function, a new flag is added which will be checked during config() and skips the "what's changed" phase.

This fixes a circular locking dependency in the workqueue handling. The interface work task uses the mac80211 function ieee80211_iterate_active_interfaces() which grabs the RTNL lock. However when the interface is brough down, this happens under the RTNL lock as well, this causes problems because mac80211 will flush the workqueue during the ifdown event. This causes mac80211 to wait until the driver has completed all work which can't finish because it is waiting on the RTNL lock. This is fixed by moving rt2x00 workqueue tasks on a different workqueue, this workqueue can be flushed when the ieee80211_hw structure is removed by the driver (when the driver is unloaded) which does not happen under the RTNL lock.

With a bit of code moving to rt2x00lib within the TX and RX paths we can now remove a lot of EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL() statements. This cleans up the interface between rt2x00lib and the drivers and has the additional benefit that rt2x00pci and rt2x00usb are trimmed down in size as well since they have less to do.
