We should only wake up queues which mac80211 knows about (queues 0-3). We have another internal queue ("CAB", queue number 6) which we use for power-saved frames. When transmitted frames are processed from this queue, we have to make sure we don't bother mac80211 with waking a queue it doesn't know about. this fixes: WARNING: at /home/br1/ath/wireless-testing/net/mac80211/util.c:275 __ieee80211_wake_queue+0xd6/0xe0 [mac80211]() Signed-off-by: NBruno Randolf <br1@einfach.org> Signed-off-by: NJohn W.

This patch adds sanity-checks for the beacon timers and especially the ATIM window to ath5k. It is basically the same what i did for madwifi two years ago and fixes a problem in IBSS mode which has been described as "ramping" pings.

Get rid of overly complicated cw_min/max and AIFS configuration: * Validate values in ath5k_hw_set_tx_queueprops(), so we can use them directly without further checks or computation in ath5k_hw_reset_tx_queue(). * Simplifiy by using AR5K_TUNE_AIFS|CWMIN|CWMAX variables directly since we don't support XR or B channels. That way we can also remove AR5K_TXQ_USEDEFAULT and the confusing logic around it. * Update data types: AIFS is u8, CW's are u16. * Remove now unneeded variables in ath5k_hw.

If we return a TX descriptor to the pool of available descriptors, while a queues TXDP still points to it we could potentially run into all sorts of troube. It has been suggested that there is hardware which can set the descriptors done bit before it reads ds_link and moves on to the next descriptor. While the documentation says this is not true for newer chipsets (the descriptor contents are copied to some internal memory), we don't know about older hardware. To be safe, we always keep the last descriptor in the queue, and avoid dangling TXDP pointers. Unfortunately this does not fully resolve the problem - queues still get stuck! This is similar to what ath9k does. Signed-off-by: NBruno Randolf <br1@einfach.org> Signed-off-by: NJohn W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>

Prepare ath5k for WME by using four hardware queues. The way we set up our queues matches the mac80211 queue priority 1:1, so we don't have to do any mapping for queue numbers. Every queue uses 50 of the total 200 available transmit buffers, so the DMA memory usage does not increase with this patch, but it might be good to fine-tune the number of buffers per queue later (depending on the CPU speed and load, and the speed of the medium access, it might not be big enough).

Use common ath key management functions in ath5k. This fixes problems with HW encryption in AP mode, which was broken in the ath5k implementation. Before (with the ath5k implementation) only one client could connect to the AP using HW encryption and WPA. When a second client connected, the first client was not able to send/receive any more packets. Because of the problems with HW encryption, software encryption was always used in AP mode, which resulted in a high CPU load (and/or low thruput) on embedded devices. Instead of trying to fix the implementation in ath5k it makes more sense to share the code with ath9k. This also enables HW encryption for AP mode again.

Atheros PCIe wireless cards handled by ath5k do require L0s disabled. For distributions shipping with CONFIG_PCIEASPM (this will be enabled by default in the future in 2.6.36) this will also mean both L1 and L0s will be disabled when a pre 1.1 PCIe device is detected. We do know L1 works correctly even for all ath5k pre 1.1 PCIe devices though but cannot currently undue the effect of a blacklist, for details you can read pcie_aspm_sanity_check() and see how it adjusts the device link capability. It may be possible in the future to implement some PCI API to allow drivers to override blacklists for pre 1.1 PCIe but for now it is best to accept that both L0s and L1 will be disabled completely for distributions shipping with CONFIG_PCIEASPM rather than having this issue present. Motivation for adding this new API will be to help with power consumption for some of these devices. Example of issues you'd see: - On the Acer Aspire One (AOA150, Atheros Communications Inc. AR5001 Wireless Network Adapter [168c:001c] (rev 01)) doesn't work well with ASPM enabled, the card will eventually stall on heavy traffic with often 'unsupported jumbo' warnings appearing. Disabling ASPM L0s in ath5k fixes these problems. - On the same card you would see a storm of RXORN interrupts even though medium is idle.

There were a few places where the sc->rxlink pointer was set to NULL "just in case". This helps nothing - quite to the contrary it is problematic since it can create self-linked rx descriptors in the middle of the list of receive buffers. Here is an example how this could happen (thanks Bob!): cpu 0: cpu 1: ath5k_rx_stop ath5k_tasklet_rx sc->rxlink = NULL; /* just in case */ // following doesn't link used // buffer to prev. ath5k_rxbuf_setup() In the case of ath5k_rx_stop() and ath5k_stop_locked() buffers/descriptors are not changed so rxlink should not be changed as well. In ath5k_intr() we seem to try to work around a hardware bug, as the comment (which is copied 1:1 from the HAL) suggests. I don't see how this could help. Also the HAL does not set rxlink in this case (So where does this code come from? It has been there since the first import of ath5k). Changed to just increment a statistics counter. After this patch rxlink is only set to NULL before we initialize rx descriptors and updated when the descriptors are linked together.

Based on a patch from Bruno Randolf, attempting useful work while we are resetting the chip just leads to interface lockups and bad descriptor data, and possibly DMAing to freed buffers.

We currently trigger a reset via a tasklet when certain error conditions are detected so that the card will (eventually) restart. Unfortunately this makes locking complicated since reset can also be called in process context (e.g. for channel change). Currently nothing protects against concurrent resets, which can be the source of corruption bugs. Reset takes too long to spinlock the whole thing, so this patch moves deferred resets into the mac80211 workqueue to enable use of sc->lock mutex.
