Commit c7ab5ef9 entitled "b43: implement short slot and basic rate handling" reduced the transmit throughput for my BCM4311 device from 18 Mb/s to 0.7 Mb/s. The basic rate handling portion is OK, the problem is in the short slot handling. Prior to this change, the short slot enable/disable routines were never called. Experimentation showed that the critical part was changing the value at offset 0x0010 in the shared memory. This is supposed to contain the 802.11 Slot Time in usec, but if it is changed from its initial value of zero, performance is destroyed. On the other hand, changing the value in the MMIO register corresponding to the Interframe Slot Time increased performance from 18 to 22 Mb/s. A BCM4306/3 also shows dramatic improvement of the transmit rate from 5.3 to 19.0 Mb/s. Other changes in the patch include removal of the magic number for the MMIO register, and allowing the slot time to be set for any PHY operating in the 2.4 GHz band. Previously, the routine was executed only for G PHYs.

The routine b43_is_hw_radio_enabled() has long been a problem. For PPC architecture with PHY Revision < 3, a read of the register B43_MMIO_HWENABLED_LO will cause a CPU fault unless b43_status() returns a value of 2 (B43_STAT_STARTED) (BUG 14181). Fixing that results in Bug 14538 in which the driver is unable to reassociate after resuming from hibernation because b43_status() returns 0. The correct fix would be to determine why the status is 0; however, I have not yet found why that happens. The correct value is found for my device, which has PHY revision >= 3. Returning TRUE when the PHY revision < 3 and b43_status() returns 0 fixes the regression for 2.6.32. This patch fixes the problem in Red Hat Bugzilla #538523.

Most of the irq_req_t typedef'd struct can be re-worked quite easily: (1) IRQInfo2 was unused in any case, so drop it. (2) IRQInfo1 was used write-only, so drop it. (3) Instance (private data to be passed to the IRQ handler): Most PCMCIA drivers using pcmcia_request_irq() to actually register an IRQ handler set the "dev_id" to the same pointer as the "priv" pointer in struct pcmcia_device. Modify the two exceptions (ipwireless, ibmtr_cs) to also work this waym and set the IRQ handler's "dev_id" to p_dev->priv unconditionally. (4) Handler is to be of type irq_handler_t. (5) Handler != NULL already tells whether an IRQ handler is present. Therefore, we do not need the IRQ_HANDLER_PRESENT flag in irq_req_t.Attributes.

This rewrites the error handling policies in the TX status handler. It tries to be error-tolerant as in "try hard to not crash the machine". It won't recover from errors (that are bugs in the firmware or driver), because that's impossible. However, it will return a more or less useful error message and bail out. It also tries hard to use rate-limited messages to not flood the syslog in case of a failure. Signed-off-by: NMichael Buesch <mb@bu3sch.de> Signed-off-by: NJohn W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>

Enforce all device constraints on the descriptor memory region. There are several constraints on the descriptor memory, as documented in the specification. The current code does not enforce them and/or incorrectly enforces them. Those constraints are: - The address limitations on 30/32bit engines, that also apply to the skbs. - The 4k alignment requirement on 30/32bit engines. - The 8k alignment requirement on 64bit engines.

ops->set_tim() must be atomic, so b43 trying to acquire a mutex leads to a kernel crash. This patch trades an easy to trigger crash in AP mode for an unlikely race condition. According to Michael, the real fix would be to allow set_tim() to sleep, since b43 is not the only driver that needs to sleep in all callbacks.

由 Johannes Berg 提交于
While there may be a case for a driver adding its own bits of radiotap information, none currently does. Also, drivers would have to copy the code to generate the radiotap bits that now mac80211 generates. If some driver in the future needs to add some driver-specific information I'd expect that to be in a radiotap vendor namespace and we can add a different way of passing such data up and having mac80211 include it. Additionally, rename IEEE80211_CONF_RADIOTAP to IEEE80211_CONF_MONITOR since it's still used by b43(legacy) to obtain per-frame timestamps. The purpose of this patch is to simplify the RX code in mac80211 to make it easier to add paged skb support. Signed-off-by: NJohannes Berg <johannes@sipsolutions.net> Signed-off-by: NJohn W.

b43 allocates a bouncebuffer, if the supplied TX skb is in an invalid memory range for DMA. However, this is broken in that it fails to copy over some metadata to the new skb. This patch fixes three problems: * Failure to adjust the ieee80211_tx_info pointer to the new buffer. This results in a kmemcheck warning. * Failure to copy the skb cb, which contains ieee80211_tx_info, to the new skb. This results in breakage of various TX-status postprocessing (Rate control). * Failure to transfer the queue mapping. This results in the wrong queue being stopped on saturation and can result in queue overflow.

"b43: Fix PPC crash in rfkill polling on unload" fixed the bug reported in Bugzilla No. 14181; however, it introduced a new bug. Whenever the radio switch was turned off, it was necessary to unload and reload the driver for it to recognize the switch again. This patch fixes both the original bug in #14181 and the bug introduced by the previous patch. It must be stated, however, that if there is a BCM4306/3 with an rfkill switch (not yet proven), then the driver will need an unload/reload cycle to turn the device back on.
