mac80211: reduce the amount of unnecessary traffic on cooked monitor interfaces · 3e5b1101

由 Felix Fietkau 提交于 11月 14, 2009

In order to handle association and authentication in AP mode,
hostapd needs access to the tx status info of its own frames
through a cooked monitor interface. Without this patch the
cooked monitor interfaces also passed on tx status information
for packets from other virtual interfaces. This creates a
significant performance issue on embedded system. Hostapd
tries to work around this by installing a Linux Socket Filter
that only captures the frames it's interested in, however
data duplication and socket filter matching still uses up
enough CPU cycles to be very noticeable on small systems.
This patch ensures that tx status information of non-injected
frames does not make it to cooked monitor interfaces.

iwlwifi: handle unicast PS buffering · 6ab10ff8

由 Johannes Berg 提交于 11月 13, 2009

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

iwlwifi: fix bugs in beacon configuration · 47ff65c4

由 Daniel C Halperin 提交于 11月 13, 2009

When sending beacon commands to the uCode, we must
inform it of the offset in the beacon frame of the
TIM Element so it can transmit packets from the
correct queue. 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.

iwlagn: power up device before initializing EEPROM · e43ab94d

由 Reinette Chatre 提交于 11月 13, 2009

A recent change optimized the power usage by the device by only powering it
up during EEPROM load if it is required (for OTP devices). This change causes
an error on the 1000 series devices during module load.

The error looks as follows:

We know that the routines in this trace, iwlcore_eeprom_acquire_semaphore
and iwlcore_eeprom_verify_signature, only access CSR registers and thus do
not need the device to be awake if it is EEPROM. But for OTP it is required
for the device to be awake to read these registers. Ensure device is awake
before accessing these registers.

iwlwifi: eliminate the possible 1/2 dBm tx power loss in 6x00 & 6x50 series · ae16fc3c

由 Wey-Yi Guy 提交于 11月 13, 2009

In both 6x00 and 6x50 series, the enhanced/extended tx power table in
EEPROM is used to set the max. tx power limit.
This new tx power table is in 1/2 dBm format, which creates an issue of
possibility of 1/2 dBm loss when driver set the tx power limit; because
of driver keep track and report the tx power in dBm format.

In order to prevent the 1/2 dBm loss, keep track of the true max tx
power in 1/2 dBm format in driver; do the comparison and adjust the tx
power if needed when send tx power command to uCode.
