When this PLL hang issue is seen, both Rx and Tx fail to work. The sqsum_dvc needs to be below 2000 for a good chip. During this issue the sqsum_dvc value is beyond 80000 and only a full reset can solve this problem. Signed-off-by: NVivek Natarajan <vnatarajan@atheros.com> Signed-off-by: NJohn W.

With this change, less CPU time is spent trying to look for consecutive pages for rx skbs. This also reduces the socket memory required for IP/UDP reassembly. Only two buffers per frame are supported. Frames spanning more buffers will be dropped, but the buffer size is enough to handle the required AMSDU size.

The system can get into a state where the xmit queue is stopped, but there are no packets pending, so the queue will not be restarted. Add logic to the xmit watchdog to attempt to restart the xmit logic if this situation is detected.

When using a mixture of AP and Station interfaces, the hardware mode was using the type of the last VIF registered. Instead, we should keep track of the number of different types of vifs and set the mode accordingly. In addtion, use the vif type instead of hardware opmode when dealing with beacons. Attempt to move some of the common setup code into smaller methods so we can re-use it when changing vif mode as well as adding/deleting vifs.

It looks like some hardware registers are left into undefined state after suspend/resume. At minimum, this can cause odd issues related to key cache and hardware trying to encrypt/decrypt frames unexpectedly. This seems to happen even when there is no keys configured, i.e., hardware can end up touching TX frames just based of invalid key cache context even if the driver is not asking a specific entry to be used. In addition, RX can likely be affected. This patch fixes this issue.

To improve aggregation length, there should not be more than two fully formed A-MPDU frames in the hardware queue. To ensure this, the code checks the tx queue length before forming new A-MPDUs. This can reduce the throughput (or maybe even starve out A-MPDU traffic) when too many non-aggregated frames are in the queue. Fix this by keeping track of pending A-MPDU frames (even when they're sent out as single frames), but exclude rate control probing frames to improve performance.

This patch allows the pm-qos value to be user configurable by making it as a module parameter.This will help our customers to configure the pm-qos value according to the effect in throughput due to the DMA latency problem which was observed in Intel Pinetrail platforms.

When ath_drain_all_txq fails to stop DMA, it issues a hw reset. This reset happens at a very problematic point in time, when the hardware rx path has not been stopped yet. This could lead to memory corruption, hardware hangs or other issues. To fix these issues, simply remove the reset entirely and check the tx DMA stop status to prevent problems with fast channel changes.

Since the pointers after the rates in the tx info cannot be used anymore after frames have been queued, this area can be used to store information that was previously stored in the ath_buf. With these changes, we can delay the ath_buf assignment in the aggregation code until aggregates are formed. That will not only make it possible to simplify DMA descriptor setup to do less rewriting of uncached memory, but will also make it easier to move aggregation out of the core of the ath9k tx path.

The current ath9k tx queue handling code showed a few issues that could lead to locking issues, tx stalls due to stopped queues, and maybe even DMA issues. The main source of these issues is that in some places the queue is selected via skb queue mapping in places where this mapping may no longer be valid. One such place is when data frames are transmitted via the CAB queue (for powersave buffered frames). This is made even worse by a lookup WMM AC values from the assigned tx queue (which is undefined for the CAB queue). This messed up the pending frame counting, which in turn caused issues with queues getting stopped, but not woken again. To fix these issues, this patch removes an unnecessary abstraction separating a driver internal queue number from the skb queue number (not to be confused with the hardware queue number). It seems that this abstraction may have been necessary because of tx queue preinitialization from the initvals. This patch avoids breakage here by pushing the software <-> hardware queue mapping to the function that assigns the tx queues and redefining the WMM AC definitions to match the numbers used by mac80211 (also affects ath9k_htc). To ensure consistency wrt. pending frame count tracking, these counters are moved to the ath_txq struct, updated with the txq lock held, but only where the tx queue selected by the skb queue map actually matches the tx queue used by the driver for the frame.
