The cycle counters are used by ANI to determine the amount of time that the
radio spent not receiving or transmitting. They're also used for debugging
purposes if the baseband watchdog on AR9003 detects a lockup.
In the future, we want to use these counters to determine the medium utilization
and export this information via survey. For that, we need to make sure that
the counter is only accessed from one place, which also ensures that
wraparounds won't occur at inconvenient points in time.

The calibration actual calibration flags are only used by the per chip family
source files, so it makes more sense to define them in those files instead
of globally. That way the code has to test for less flags.

Also instead of using a separate callback for testing whether a particular
calibration type is supported, simply adjust ah->supp_cals in the calibration
init which is called right after the hardware reset, before any of the
calibrations are run.

We never delete the addBA response timer, which
is typically fine, but if the station it belongs
to is deleted very quickly after starting the BA
session, before the peer had a chance to reply,
the timer may fire after the station struct has
been freed already. Therefore, we need to delete
the timer in a suitable spot -- best when the
session is being stopped (which will happen even
then) in which case the delete will be a no-op
most of the time.

I've reproduced the scenario and tested the fix.

Be consistent and use the wk->chan instead of the
local->hw.conf.channel for the association done work.
This prevents any possible races against channel changes
while we run this work.

In the case that the race did happen we would be initializing
the bit rates for the new AP under the assumption of a wrong
channel and in the worst case, wrong band. This could lead
to trying to assuming we could use CCK frames on 5 GHz, for
example.

This patch has a fix for kernels >= v2.6.34

The base_eep_header_4k structure contains information that the

it is called with EEP_TXGAIN_TYPE. This leads to that the tx gain
initialization will use the init values from the original tx gain
table even if the device inidicates that the high power table
should be used.

The locking around ieee80211_recalc_smps is
buggy -- it cannot acquire another interface's
mutex while the iflist mutex is held because
another code path could be holding the iface
mutex and trying to acquire the iflist mutex.

But the locking is also unnecessary, we only
check "ifmgd->associated" as a bool, and don't
use the pointer (in check_mgd_smps).

This allows a family to handle such things in

 b) specify a pre_doit hook that is called,
    before an operation's doit() callback and
    may return an error directly,
 c) specify a post_doit hook that can undo
    locking or similar things done by pre_doit,

 d) include two private pointers in each info

If a frame is not meant to be sent as AMPDU or part of it the hw might
still decide to aggregate this frame if a previous frame started an
AMPDU. However, this will limit the usefulness of the reported tx rate
since the reported rate will be the one specified in the TXWI of the
first frame and thus it is not possible to reliably caculate the
number of retrys by substracting the reported tx rate from the tx rate
in the TXWI.

To fix this issue, only report the successful rate for frames that were
not meant to be aggregated but ended up in an aggregate.

Example:
Frame A (MCS7, AMPDU=1) B (MCS7, AMPDU=1) C (MCS12, AMDPU=0, PROBE_RATE)

Although frame C shoudn't be aggregated the hw might sill put it
into an AMPDU together with A and B. If the transmission succeeds the tx
status will contain MCS7 for all three frames. In that case we should
only report MCS7 as success rate and avoid reporting MCS12-MCS8 as
failed tx attempts as this will affect the future rate control
decisions.

This oddity might strike us in other scenarious as well but the most
common "wrong" report happened for frames used to probe a different tx
rate.

This improves the rate control decisions notable.

The TX_STA_FIFO contains some information for identifying
a outgoing frame, however matching by WCID and ACK status is
not sufficient to 100% identify the macthing queue_entry structure
(containing the SKB buffer) which belongs to the status report.

Within TX_STA_FIFO we have a 4-bit field named PACKETID, which is
currently used to encode the queue id. The queue ID is however
limited to values from 0 to 3, which means 2 bits are sufficient
to encode the value. With the remaining 2 bits we can encode a
partial queue_entry index number. The value of PACKETID is not
allowed to become 0, with the queue ID ranging from 0 to 3, at least
one of the bits for the entry identification must be 1.

That leaves us with 3 possible values we can still encode in the
bits. Altough this doesn't allow 100% accurate matching of the
TX_STA_FIFO queue to a queue_entry structure, it at least improves
the accuracy. This allows us to better detect if we have missed the
TX_STA_FIFO report, which in turn reduces the number of watchdog
warnings regarding the TX status timeout.

rt61pci and rt2800 devices can use up to 7 different rates per tx frame.
However, the device uses a global fallback table. Hence, the rc
algortihm cannot specify multiple rates to try but the device is able to
report multiple rates (based on the retry table). Specify that behavior
by correctly setting max_report_rates and max_rates.

Some drivers cannot handle multiple retry rates specified by the rc
algorithm but instead use their own retry table (for example rt2800).
However, if such a device registers itself with a max_rates value of 1
the rc algorithm cannot make use of the extended information the device
can provide about retried rates. On the other hand, if a device
registers itself with a max_rates value > 1 the rc algorithm assumes
that the device can handle multi rate retries.

Fix this issue by introducing another hw parameter max_report_rates that
can be set to a different value then max_rates to indicate if a device
is capable of reporting more rates then specified in max_rates.

was dma mapped for this entry again. However, rt2800pci_fill_rxdone also
moves the hw rx queue index, marking this entry to be available for

This patch changes the way tx status reports are handled by rt2800pci.
Previously rt2800pci would sometimes lose tx status reports as the
TX_STA_FIFO register is a fifo of 16 entries that can overflow in case
we don't read it often/fast enough. Since interrupts are disabled in the
device during the execution of the interrupt thread it happend sometimes
under high network and CPU load that processing took too long and a few
tx status reports were dropped by the hw.

To fix this issue the TX_STA_FIFO register is read directly in the
interrupt handler and stored in a kfifo which is large enough to hold
all status reports of all used tx queues.

To process the status reports a new tasklet txstatus_tasklet is used.
Using the already used interrupt thread is not possible since we don't
want to disable the TX_FIFO_STATUS interrupt while processing them and
it is not possible to schedule the interrupt thread multiple times for
execution. A tasklet instead can be scheduled multiple times which
allows to leave the TX_FIFO_STATUS interrupt enabled while a previously
scheduled tasklet is still executing.

In short: All other interrupts are handled in the interrupt thread as
before. Only the TX_FIFO_STATUS interrupt is partly handled in the
interrupt handler and finished in the according tasklet.

One drawback of this patch is that it duplicates some code from
rt2800lib. However, that can be cleaned up in the future once the
rt2800usb and rt2800pci tx status handling converge more.

Using this patch on a Ralink RT3052 embedded board gives me a reliable
wireless connection even under high CPU and network load. I've
transferred several gigabytes without any queue lockups.
