The "is_ap" argument to iwl_sta_init_lq is never true, so it and the corresponding code can be removed. However, it needs to have the station ID because it is also used for the IBSS BSSID station, and that doesn't have the broadcast ID.

Currently iwlwifi will eventually exhaust the station table when adding the BSSID station for IBSS mode, unless the interface is set down. The new mac80211 ibss joined/left notification allows us to fix that easily by moving the code to add the IBSS station to the notification, and also adding code to remove it again when we leave the IBSS.

When adding the broadcast station the link quality command is generated on demand, sent to device, and disappears. It is thus not available for later cases when we need to restore stations and need to send the link quality command afterwards. Now, when first adding the broadcast station, also generate its link quality command to always be available for later restoring. Also fix an issue when adding local stations where the "in progress" state is never cleared.

Even the initial single/dual stream values will be overridden later when issue link quality command; but still make sense not to use hard-code value during initialization. Single/Dual stream mask are used to indicate the best antenna for SISO/MIMO; different NIC has different tx antenna configuration; so the parameter need to based on the valid tx antenna. 1x2 device: single tx antenna available, only SISO is valid configuration, but still need to set up MIMO configuration, so set it up with antenna A & B as default. 2x2 device: two tx antenna available, dual_stream will use both valid antenna. 3x3 device: three tx antenna available, skip the first antenna and choice the second and third antenna for dual_stream.

Default WEP keys and regular keys are not allocated from the same space in the firmware, so we shouldn't use the same bits to indicate in use. For default WEP keys, however, mac80211 won't allow using the same key index twice, so the check is not necessary at all -- add/remove are perfectly nested due to those checks. Other keys are allocated in the device in a global array that only has a certain number of slots, so for that we need to keep the allocation bitmap; but the 802.11 key index isn't relevant there.

The firmware clears default WEP keys on transitions to !associated, so we need to restore them just like stations. This is rather implicit as part of sending a station right now, which is odd. Make it explicit instead and only for agn since 3945 doesn't use hw crypto for WEP. Due to that, iwl_send_static_wepkey_cmd is now only used in iwl-sta.c and can be static.

mac80211 recently implemented two new callbacks that are used to request station add/remove from the driver. The benefot from these new callbacks are that they enable the driver to sleep while performing this work. This is a big patch since a few things need to be coordinated in this move. First we need to decouple station management from rate scaling, which caused a lot of code to be moved and/or deleted. Next we needed to tie in with mac80211's station management callback and let it direct our station management as well as trigger the rate scaling initialization.

Currently the broadcast station is added after every RXON command. Change this to only add the broadcast station when interface is added by mac80211. With this we need some extra work to ensure broadcast station is always present since station table is cleared when RXON without ASSOC bit set is sent. To deal with this we re-add all driver known stations to uCode after such an RXON command is sent. We also do some cleanup and remove the various calls to clear the station table. We now only clear the station table in two scenarios: - only clear uCode portion of station table when RXON command without ASSOC bit is sent - clear uCode and driver portion when interface goes down or is removed. We need to do this clearing when interface goes down to deal with the device restart/reconfigure routines which do not remove the interface, but do add the interface during reconfiguration. Previously the keys were also cleared when station table in driver is cleared, this is not done anymore since mac80211 will take care that keys are set and cleared correctly. There is a known issue with this change. Associating with different AP without bringing interface down fails with a firmware error. This is because of the lack of full station notification support and the later patches in this series that complete the station notification support will fix this.

The aggregation (and possibly other) station flags were not being set, which limited the size of aggregation blocks and reduced throughput at high rates. >From Johannes: """ Due to Wey-Yi's patch to use the set-channel command when the channel changes while associated, we don't get a full new RXON. Therefore, we don't re-set the rxon-station either. However, under some circumstances that apparently have gotten more likely mac80211 will first set up the BSS info, then add the station and then switch to an HT channel type. Therefore, the check for "priv->current_ht_config.is_ht" in iwl_rxon_add_station() will hit false and not fill in the HT information. However, that check can just be removed, which is the easiest fix for all this, because the HT capa struct is always there, just could possibly have the ht_supported member set to false.

Add function pointer for broadcast station addition so that we can call it in from iwlcore at a later time. We only distinguish between iwlagn and iwl3945 broadcast station addition. For the iwl3945 station addition we add that function to iwlcore since that is where most station functionality resides, making it part of iwl3945 will require significant code reorganization that will dilute station management functionality. This seems to be an efficient solution. It may seem as though we are removing error checking when adding the 3945 broadcast station but this error checking was never really necessary since the function returns the station id and the broadcast station id is always set.

Using the new mac80211 functionality, this makes iwlwifi handle unicast PS buffering correctly. The device works like this: * when a station goes to sleep, the microcode notices this and marks the station as asleep * when the station is marked asleep, the microcode refuses to transmit to the station and rejects all frames queued to it with the failure status code TX_STATUS_FAIL_DEST_PS (a previous patch handled this correctly) * when we need to send frames to the station _although_ it is asleep, we need to tell the ucode how many, and this is asynchronous with sending so we cannot just send the frames, we need to wait for all other frames to be flushed, and then update the counter before sending out the poll response frames. This is handled partially in the driver and partially in mac80211. In order to do all this correctly, we need to * keep track of how many frames are pending for each associated client station (avoid doing it for other stations to avoid the atomic ops) * tell mac80211 that we driver-block the PS status while there are still frames pending on the queues, and once they are all rejected (due to the dest sta being in PS) unblock mac80211 Signed-off-by: NJohannes Berg <johannes@sipsolutions.net> Signed-off-by: NReinette Chatre <reinette.chatre@intel.com> Signed-off-by: NJohn W.

This switches the iwlwifi driver to use paged skb from linear skb for Rx buffer. So that it relieves some Rx buffer allocation pressure for the memory subsystem. Currently iwlwifi (4K for 3945) requests 8K bytes for Rx buffer. Due to the trailing skb_shared_info in the skb->data, alloc_skb() will do the next order allocation, which is 16K bytes. This is suboptimal and more likely to fail when the system is under memory usage pressure. Switching to paged Rx skb lets us allocate the RXB directly by alloc_pages(), so that only order 1 allocation is required. It also adjusts the area spin_lock (with IRQ disabled) protected in the tasklet because tasklet guarentees to run only on one CPU and the new unprotected code can be preempted by the IRQ handler. This saves us from spawning another workqueue to make skb_linearize/__pskb_pull_tail happy (which cannot be called in hard irq context). Finally, mac80211 doesn't support paged Rx yet. So we linearize the skb for all the management frames and software decryption or defragmentation required data frames before handed to mac80211. For all the other frames, we __pskb_pull_tail 64 bytes in the linear area of the skb for mac80211 to handle them properly. Signed-off-by: NZhu Yi <yi.zhu@intel.com> Signed-off-by: NJohn W.

commit 10c994ca70e8e94bbc85a5bf13de5911ee8de4d2 "iwlwifi: fix remove key error" fixed an error reported by mac80211 during interface down. The fix involved changing an async command to synchronous. Unfortunately this was inside a spinlock section in which we cannot sleep. Modify the sending of the command back to async. This causes the mac80211 error "mac80211-phy0: failed to remove key (0, ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff) from hardware (-16)." to return. This error is not serious since this occurs during interface down and the keys will be cleared anyway when ucode is unloaded. Having this error message is thus less serious than a potential deadlock introduced when sleeping while holding a spinlock. We will have to find another fix for that error. This is a revert of the abovementioned commit. Signed-off-by: NReinette Chatre <reinette.chatre@intel.com> Signed-off-by: NJohn W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>

Some setups do consits of more that one iwlwifi device and in these setups there is a requirement that debug levels should be unique per device. We now re-introduce the per device debugging while maintaining the cleanup effort of the previous patch. The maintain the global debug level and now introduce a per-device debug level that will be used if it (the per-device debug level) is set. The per-device debug level can be controlled via the debug_level sysfs file while the global debug level is controlled by the debug module parameter.

The current command sending in iwlwifi is a bit of a mess: 1) there is a struct, iwl_cmd, that contains both driver and device data in a single packed structure -- this is very confusing 2) the on-stack data and the command metadata share a structure by embedding the latter in the former, which is also rather confusing because it leads to weird unions and similarly odd constructs 3) each txq always has enough space for 256 commands, even if only 32 end up being used This patch fixes these things: 1) rename iwl_cmd to iwl_device_cmd and keep track of command metadata and device command separately, in two arrays in each tx queue 2) remove the 'meta' member from iwl_host_cmd and only put in the required members 3) allocate the cmd/meta arrays separately instead of embedding them into the txq structure Signed-off-by: NJohannes Berg <johannes@sipsolutions.net> Signed-off-by: NReinette Chatre <reinette.chatre@intel.com> Signed-off-by: NJohn W.

* Deprecate the "debug50" module parameter used to obtain 5000 series and up debugging. Replace it with "debug" module parameter to match with original driver and be consistent between them. The "debug50" module parameter can still be used, except that the module parameter is not writable in keeping with its previous state. We currently just mark it as "deprecated" and do not have it in the feature-removal-schedule. Some more cleanup of module parameters needs to be done and can then be entered together. * Only make "debug" module parameters visible if the driver is compiled with CONFIG_IWLWIFI_DEBUG. This will eliminate a lot of confusion where users think they have set debug flags but yet cannot see any debug output. * Make module parameters writable. This eliminates the need for the "debug_level" sysfs file, which can now also be deprecated and added to feature-removal-schedule. This file is in significant use though with many iwlwifi documents and text referring users to it. We can thus not take its removal lightly and keep it around. With iwlcore shared between iwlagn and iwl3945 we really do not need debug module parameters for each but can instead have one debug module parameter for the iwlcore module. The same issue is here as with the sysfs file - a lot of iwlwifi documentation and text (like bug reports) rely on iwlagn and iwl3945 having this module parameter, so changing this to a module parameter of iwlcore will have significant impact and we do not do this for that reason. One consequence of this patch is that if a user is running a system with both 3945 and later hardware then the setting of the one module parameter will affect the value of the other. The likelihood of this seems low - and even if this setup is present it does not seem like an issue for both modules to run with the same debug level.
