      ath9k: Fix bug in starting ani · 6c3118e2
      Vasanthakumar Thiagarajan 提交于
      There are few places where ANI is started without checking
      if it is right to start. This might lead to a case where ani
      timer would be left undeleted and cause improper memory acccess
      during module unload. This bug is clearly exposed with
      paprd support where the driver detects tx hang and does a
      chip reset. During this reset ani is (re)started without checking
      if it needs to be started. This would leave a timer scheduled
      even after all the resources are freed and cause a panic.
      
      This patch introduces a bit in sc_flags to indicate if ani
      needs to be started in sw_scan_start() and ath_reset().
      This would fix the following panic. This issue is easily seen
      with ar9003 + paprd.

      ath9k: Add a module parameter to disable led blinking. · 9a75c2ff
      Vivek Natarajan 提交于
      Some vendors require the LED to be ON always irrespective of any
      radio activity. Introducing a module parameter to disable blinking,
      so that one can choose between always on or led blink during
      activity.

      ath9k: fix queue stopping threshold · 97923b14
      Felix Fietkau 提交于
      ath9k tries to prevent WMM queue tx buffer starvation caused by
      traffic on different queues by limiting the number of pending frames
      in a tx queue (tracked in the ath_buf structure). This had a leak
      issue, because the a skb can be reassigned to a different ath_buf
      in the tx path, causing the pending frame counter to become inaccurate.
      
      To fix this, track the number of frames in an array in the softc,
      using the mac80211 queue mapping as index.

      ath9k: fix mac80211 queue lookup for waking up queues · 293f2ba8
      Felix Fietkau 提交于
      ath_get_mac80211_qnum() expects the queue 'subtype'
      (internal ID for the WMM AC) as argument when looking up
      the mac80211 queue, however ath_wake_mac80211_queue provides
      txq->axq_qnum instead, which contains the hardware queue
      number. Fix this by keeping track of the WMM class ID in
      the txq data structure.

      ath9k: add new ANI implementation for AR9003 · e36b27af
      Luis R. Rodriguez 提交于
      This adds support for ANI for AR9003. The implementation for
      ANI for AR9003 is slightly different than the one used for
      the older chipset families. It can technically be used for
      the older families as well but this is not yet fully tested
      so we only enable the new ANI for the AR5008, AR9001 and AR9002
      families with a module parameter, force_new_ani.
      
      The old ANI implementation is left intact.
      
      Details of the new ANI implemention:
      
        * ANI adjustment logic is now table driven so that each ANI level
          setting is parameterized. This makes adjustments much more
          deterministic than the old procedure based logic and allows
          adjustments to be made incrementally to several parameters per
          level.
      
        * ANI register settings are now relative to INI values; so ANI
          param zero level == INI value. Appropriate floor and ceiling
          values are obeyed when adjustments are combined with INI values.
      
        * ANI processing is done once per second rather that every 100ms.
          The poll interval is now a set upon hardware initialization and
          can be picked up by the core driver.
      
        * OFDM error and CCK error processing are made in a round robin
          fashion rather than allowing all OFDM adjustments to be made
          before CCK adjustments.
      
        * ANI adjusts MRC CCK off in the presence of high CCK errors
      
        * When adjusting spur immunity (SI) and OFDM weak signal detection,
          ANI now sets register values for the extension channel too
      
        * When adjusting FIR step (ST), ANI now sets register for FIR step
          low too
      
        * FIR step adjustments now allow for an extra level of immunity for
          extremely noisy environments
      
        * The old Noise immunity setting (NI), which changes coarse low, size
          desired, etc have been removed. Changing these settings could affect
          up RIFS RX as well.
      
        * CCK weak signal adjustment is no longer used
      
        * ANI no longer enables phy error interrupts; in all cases phy hw
          counting registers are used instead
      
        * The phy error count (overflow) interrupts are also no longer used
          for ANI adjustments. All ANI adjustments are made via the polling
          routine and no adjustments are possible in the ISR context anymore
      
        * A history settings buffer is now correctly used for each channel;
          channel settings are initialized with the defaults but later
          changes are restored when returning back to that channel
      
        * When scanning, ANI is disabled settings are returned to (INI) defaults.
      
        * OFDM phy error thresholds are now 400 & 1000 (errors/second units) for
          low/high water marks, providing increased stability/hysteresis when
          changing levels.
      
        * Similarly CCK phy error thresholds are now 300 & 600 (errors/second)

      ath9k: fix queue stop/start based on the number of pending frames · 84642d6b
      Felix Fietkau 提交于
      Because there is a limited number of tx buffers available, once the
      queue has been filled to a certain point, ath9k needs to stop accepting
      new frames from mac80211. In order to prevent a full WMM queue from
      stopping another queue with fewer frames, this patch limits the number
      of queued frames to a quarter of the total available tx buffers, minus
      some reserved frames to be used for other purposes (e.g. beacons).
      
      Because tx buffers are reserved for frames when they're staged in
      software queues as well, the actual queue depth cannot be used for
      this, so this patch stores a reference to the tx queue in the ath_buf
      struct and keeps track of the total number of pending frames.
