      iwlagn: remove bytecount indirection · 94b00658
      由 Johannes Berg 提交于 
      All AGN devices need the bytecount table, so
remove the indirection and make the functions
static again.

      iwlwifi: support the svtool messages interactions through nl80211 test mode · 4613e72d
      由 Cindy H. Kao 提交于 
      This patch adds the feature to support the test mode operation through
the generic netlink channel NL80211_CMD_TESTMODE between intel
wireless device iwlwifi and the user space application svtool.

The main purpose is to create a transportation layer between the iwlwifi
device and the user space application so that the interaction between the
user space application svtool and the iwlwifi device in the kernel space is
in a way of generic netlink messaging.

The detail specific functions are:

1. The function iwl_testmode_cmd() is added to digest the svtool test command
   from the user space application. The svtool test commands are categorized  to
   three types : commands to be processed by the device ucode, commands to access
   the registers, and commands to be processed at the driver level(such as reload
   the ucode). iwl_testmode_cmd() dispatches the commands the corresponding handlers
   and reply to user space regarding the command execution status. Extra data is
   returned to the user space application if there's any.

2. The function iwl_testmode_ucode_rx_pkt() is added to multicast all the spontaneous
   messages from the iwlwifi device to the user space. Regardless the message types,
   whenever there is a valid spontaneous message received by the iwlwifi ISR,
   iwl_testmode_ucode_rx_pkt() is invoked to multicast the message content to user
   space. The message content is not attacked and the message parsing is left to
   the user space application.

Implementation guidelines:

1. The generic netlink messaging for iwliwif test mode is through  NL80211_CMD_TESTMODE
   channel, therefore, the codes need to follow the regulations set by cfg80211.ko
   to get the actual device instance ieee80211_ops via cfg80211.ko, so that the iwlwifi
   device is indicated with ieee80211_ops and can be actually accessed.

   Therefore, a callback iwl_testmode_cmd() is added to the structure
   iwlagn_hw_ops in iwl-agn.c.

2. It intends to utilize those low level device access APIs from iwlwifi device driver
   (ie. iwlagn.ko) rather than creating it's own set of device access functions.
   For example, iwl_send_cmd(), iwl_read32(), iwl_write8(), and iwl_write32() are reused.

3. The main functions are maintained in new files instead of spreading all over the
   existing iwlwifi driver files.

   The new files added are :

   drivers/net/wireless/iwlwifi/iwl-sv-open.c
        - to handle the user space test mode application command
          and reply the respective command status to the user space application.
        - to multicast the spontaneous messages from device to user space.

   drivers/net/wireless/iwlwifi/iwl-testmode.h
        - the commonly referenced definitions for the TLVs used in
          the generic netlink messages

      mac80211: make tx() operation return void · 7bb45683
      由 Johannes Berg 提交于 
      The return value of the tx operation is commonly
misused by drivers, leading to errors. All drivers
will drop frames if they fail to TX the frame, and
they must also properly manage the queues (if they
didn't, mac80211 would already warn).

Removing the ability for drivers to return a BUSY
value also allows significant cleanups of the TX
TX handling code in mac80211.

Note that this also fixes a bug in ath9k_htc, the
old "return -1" there was wrong.

      mac80211: track receiver's aggregation reorder buffer size · 0b01f030
      由 Johannes Berg 提交于 
      The aggregation code currently doesn't implement the
buffer size negotiation. It will always request a max
buffer size (which is fine, if a little pointless, as
the mac80211 code doesn't know and might just use 0
instead), but if the peer requests a smaller size it
isn't possible to honour this request.

In order to fix this, look at the buffer size in the
addBA response frame, keep track of it and pass it to
the driver in the ampdu_action callback when called
with the IEEE80211_AMPDU_TX_OPERATIONAL action. That
way the driver can limit the number of subframes in
aggregates appropriately.

Note that this doesn't fix any drivers apart from the
addition of the new argument -- they all need to be
updated separately to use this variable!
