Last May we started working on cleaning up ath6kl driver which is
currently in staging. The work has happened in a separate
ath6kl-cleanup tree:

http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/kvalo/ath6kl-cleanup.git;a=summary

After over 1100 (!) patches we have now reached a state where I would
like to start discussing about pushing the driver to the wireless
trees and replacing the staging driver.

The driver is now a lot smaller and looks like a proper Linux driver.
The size of the driver (measured with simple wc -l) dropped from 49
kLOC to 18 kLOC and the number of the .c and .h files dropped from 107
to 22. Most importantly the number of subdirectories reduced from 26
to zero :)

There are two remaining checkpatch warnings in the driver which we
decided to omit for now:

drivers/net/wireless/ath/ath6kl/debug.c:31:
  WARNING: printk() should include KERN_ facility level
drivers/net/wireless/ath/ath6kl/sdio.c:527:
  WARNING: msleep < 20ms can sleep for up to 20ms;
  see Documentation/timers/timers-howto.txt

The driver has endian annotations for all the hardware specific
structures and there are no sparse errors. Unfortunately I don't have
any big endian hardware to test that right now.

We have been testing the driver both on x86 and arm platforms. The
code is also compiled with sparc and parisc cross compilers.

Notable missing features compared to the current staging driver are:

o HCI over SDIO support
o nl80211 testmode
o firmware logging
o suspend support

Testmode, firmware logging and suspend support will be added soon. HCI
over SDIO support will be more difficult as the HCI driver needs to
share code with the wifi driver. This is something we need to research
more.

Also I want to point out the changes I did for signed endian support.
As I wasn't able to find any support for signed endian annotations I
decided to follow what NTFS has done and added my own. Grep for sle16
and sle32, especially from wmi.h.

Various people have been working on the cleanup, the hall of
fame based on number of patches is:

Currently ath9k presents the internal calibrated noise floor as channel
noise measurement, however this results in highly chip specific values
that are only useful as relative measurements but do not resemble any
real channel noise values.

In order to give a much better approximation of the real channel noise,
add the difference between the measured noise floor and the nominal
chip specific noise floor to the default minimum channel noise value,
which is currently used to calculate the signal strength from the RSSI
value. This may not be 100% accurate, but it's much better than what's
there before.

We receive many bug reports about system hang during suspend/resume
when ath9k driver is in use. Adrian Chadd remarked that this problem
happens on systems that have ASPM disabled.

To do not hit the bug, skip doing ->config_pci_powersave magic if PCIe
downstream port device, which ath9k device is connected to, has ASPM
disabled.

Bug was introduced by:

commit 53bc7aa0
Author: Vivek Natarajan <vnatarajan@atheros.com>
Date:   Mon Apr 5 14:48:04 2010 +0530

    ath9k: Add support for newer AR9285 chipsets.

Patch should address:
https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=37462
https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=37082
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=697157

however I did not receive confirmation about that, except from Camilo
Mesias, whose system stops hang regularly with this patch (but still
hangs from time to time, but this is probably some other bug).

Some devices (e.g. Ubiquiti AirRouter) ship with broken EEPROM chainmask
data, which breaks the initial calibration after a hardware reset.
To fix this, mask the eeprom chainmask with the chainmask of the chip,
and use the chip chainmask if the result is zero.

Both ath5k_hw and ath5k_softc represent one instance of the hardware.
This duplication is historical and is not needed anymore.

Keep the name "ath5k_hw" for the merged structure and "ah" for the
variable pointing to it.  "ath5k_hw" is shorter than "ath5k_softc", more
descriptive and more widely used.

Put the combined structure to ath5k.h where the old ath5k_softc used to
be. Move some code from base.h to ath5k.h as needed.

Remove memory allocation for struct ath5k_hw and the corresponding error
handling.  Merge iobase and ah_iobase fields.

Harshal Chhaya discovered during network tests, that
several of his clients dropped-off the network. The
captured packets shows that the beacons sent by the
AP are at a much lower power than the other data
packets.

The reason for this mishap: The driver never updated
the beacon phy register, so all beacons were always
sent at the lowest power.

For unicast the hardware sometimes reports MIC errors even though the
frame that it received actually contains a valid MIC - on some chips this
can happen frequently enough to trigger TKIP countermeasures.
Fix this issue by not reporting MIC errors for unicast frames with a
valid key, letting mac80211 validate the MIC instead.

Additionally, strip the MIC for all frames that the hardware considers
valid to avoid wasting CPU cycles re-validating it.
