Add support to configure missed beacon threshold, by default, if receive "missed beacon" notification from uCode and has more than 5 consecutive beacon missed, then perform sensitivity calibration; with this change, allow user to adjust the missed beacon threshold from debugfs in case more sensitivity calibration required for better performance in noisy environment The default value (=5) should be good enough for the normal condition, but for very noisy environment, more sensitivity calibration could help improve the throughput, so by setting the missed beacon threshold to lower number, user might experience better performance result.

IEEE80211_AMPDU_TX_OPERATIONAL is a valid action, just iwlwifi driver do not need to take any action for it; so instead of return "-EINVAL", it is a good program practice to return "-EOPNOTSUPP" to make sure mac80211 will not get wrong impression.

In order to help uCode debugging, adding the capability to provide continuous uCode event logging function. uCode events is located in round-robin event queue and filled by uCode, by enable continuous event logging, driver check the write pointer and log the newly added events in iwl_bg_ucode_trace() timer function. There is still possibility of missing events if event queue being wrapped before next event dump; but with this capability, we can have much better understanding of the uCode behavior during runtime; it can help to debug the uCode related issues. Methods to enable/disable the continuous event log: step 1: enable ucode trace timer "echo 1 > /sys/kernel/debug/ieee80211/phyX/iwlagn/debug/ucode_tracing" step 2: start ftrace sudo ./trace-cmd record -e iwlwifi_ucode:* sleep 1d step 3: stop ftrace sudo ./trace-cmd report trace.dat step 4: disable ucode trace timer "echo 0 > /sys/kernel/debug/ieee80211/phyX/iwlagn/debug/ucode_tracing" use "ucode_tracing" debugfs file to display number of event queue wrapped when driver attempt the continuous event logging. If event queue being wrapped more than once when driver has opportunity to log the event; it indicated there are events missing in the event log trace. This continuous event log function only available for 4965 and newer NICs.

To help iwlagn uCode debugging, event log will dump to syslog when driver detect uCode error occurred, but this only happen when compile with CONFIG_IWLWIFI_DEBUG and debug flag is enabled; which is not always the case. Also, there is another problem, if the flag is set, the entire event log buffer will be dump to syslog, it can flood the syslog and make it very difficult to debug the problem. Change the default to only dump last 20 entries of event log to syslog unless the following condition meets: 1. both compile with CONFIG_IWLWIFI_DEBUG and debug flag is enabled, and then dump the entire event buffer to syslog. 2. dump event log request from debugfs Signed-off-by: NWey-Yi Guy <wey-yi.w.guy@intel.com> Acked-by: NBen Cahill <ben.m.cahill@intel.com> Signed-off-by: NReinette Chatre <reinette.chatre@intel.com> Signed-off-by: NJohn W.

CSR_INT_COALESCING previously had only one, but now has two single-byte fields. With only one single-byte field (lowest order byte) it was okay to write via iwl_write32(), but now with two, an iwl_write32() to the lower order field clobbers the other field (odd-address CSR_INT_PERIODIC_REG, offset 0x5), and an iwl_write32() to CSR_INT_PERIODIC_REG could clobber the lowest byte of the next-higher register (CSR_INT, offset 0x8). Fortunately, no bad side effects have been produced by the iwl_write32() usage, due to order of execution (low order byte was always written before higher order byte), and the fact that writing "0" to the low byte of the next higher register has no effect (only action is when writing "1"s). Nonetheless, this cleans up the accesses so no bad side effects might occur in the future, if execution order changes, or more bit fields get added to CSR_INT_COALESCING.

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 functionality is implemented in iwl_set_beacon_tim(). Fix a bug setting the rate_n_flags for the beacon packet. First, it should not use the station table's rate (it's a management frame), and second it needs to properly configure the TX antennas. Finally, also, clean up and comment relevant functions.

This is adequate just for 3945, but inadequate for other devices, all of which have more tx queues.

When 802.11g was introduced, we had RTS/CTS and CTS-to-Self protection mechanisms. In an HT Beacon, HT stations use the "Operating Mode" field in the HT Information Element to determine whether or not to use protection. The Operating Mode field has 4 possible settings: 0-3: Mode 0: If all stations in the BSS are 20/40 MHz HT capable, or if the BSS is 20/40 MHz capable, or if all stations in the BSS are 20 MHz HT stations in a 20 MHz BSS Mode 1: used if there are non-HT stations or APs using the primary or secondary channels Mode 2: if only HT stations are associated in the BSS and at least one 20 MHz HT station is associated. Mode 3: used if one or more non-HT stations are associated in the BSS. When in operating modes 1 or 3, and the Use_Protection field is 1 in the Beacon's ERP IE, all HT transmissions must be protected using RTS/CTS or CTS-to-Self. By default, CTS-to-self is the preferred protection mechanism for less overhead and higher throughput; but using the full RTS/CTS will better protect the inner exchange from interference, especially in highly-congested environment. For 6000 series WIFI NIC, RTS/CTS protection mechanism is the recommended choice for HT traffic based on the HW design.

To save power, don't run apm_ops.init() until needed at "up" time. EEPROM (5000 and earlier devices) may be read without running apm_ops.init(), but OTP reads (6000 and newer devices) require a powered-up chip. Therefore, remove apm_ops.init() from the general path in XXXX_pci_probe(), and call it only if device uses OTP. Once done with OTP read, call apm_ops.stop() to reset chip and save power until "up" time comes around. NOTE: This patch depends on removal of priv->lock from iwl_apm_stop(); lock does not get initialized until later in flow. See patch "remove unneeded locks from apm_stop()".
