      rt2x00: Fix queue related oops in case of deselected mac80211 multi-queue feature. · 61448f88
      Gertjan van Wingerde 提交于
      With the integration of the mac80211 multiqueue patches it has become possible that the
      mac80211 layer modifies the number of TX queues that is stored inside the ieee80211_hw
      structure, especially when multi-queue is not selected.
      
      The rt2x00 drivers are not well suited to handle that situation, as they allocate the
      queue structures before mac80211 has modified the number of queues it is going to use,
      and also expect the number of allocated queues to match the hardware implementation.
      
      Hence, ensure that rt2x00 maintains by itself the number of queues that the hardware
      supports, and, at the same time, making is not dependent on the preservation of contents
      inside a mac80211 structure.

      in the drivers to the txentry_desc structure. After this we can
      remove ieee80211_tx_control from the argument list for the callback function,

      rt2x00: Fix TX status reporting · fb55f4d1
      Ivo van Doorn 提交于
      The tx_status enumeration was broken since the introduction
      of rt61pci. That driver uses different values to report the
      status of the tx action.
      This would lead to frames that were reported as success but
      actually failed to be send out, or frames that were neither
      successfull or failure which were reported as failure.
      
      Fix this by change the TX status reporting and more explicitely
      check for failure or success. Note that a third possibility is
      added "unknown". Not all hardware (USB) can report the actual
      TX status, for rt61pci some frames will receive this status
      because the TXdone handler is never called for those frames.
      This unknown will now be handled as neither success or failure,
      so we no longer increment the failure counter while this conclusion
      could not be determined from the real status of the frame.

      mac80211: use hardware flags for signal/noise units · 566bfe5a
      Bruno Randolf 提交于
      trying to clean up the signal/noise code. the previous code in mac80211 had
      confusing names for the related variables, did not have much definition of
      what units of signal and noise were provided and used implicit mechanisms from
      the wireless extensions.
      
      this patch introduces hardware capability flags to let the hardware specify
      clearly if it can provide signal and noise level values and which units it can
      provide. this also anticipates possible new units like RCPI in the future.
      
      for signal:
      
        IEEE80211_HW_SIGNAL_UNSPEC - unspecified, unknown, hw specific
        IEEE80211_HW_SIGNAL_DB     - dB difference to unspecified reference point
        IEEE80211_HW_SIGNAL_DBM    - dBm, difference to 1mW
      
      for noise we currently only have dBm:
      
        IEEE80211_HW_NOISE_DBM     - dBm, difference to 1mW
      
      if IEEE80211_HW_SIGNAL_UNSPEC or IEEE80211_HW_SIGNAL_DB is used the driver has
      to provide the maximum value (max_signal) it reports in order for applications
      to make sense of the signal values.
      
      i tried my best to find out for each driver what it can provide and update it
      but i'm not sure (?) for some of them and used the more conservative guess in
      doubt. this can be fixed easily after this patch has been merged by changing
      the hardware flags of the driver.

      Same for num_modes but then for the 2GHZ and 5GHZ band.

      Specifications indicate the TSF registers are read-only,
      so there is no point in writing 0 to those registers.
      
      As far as I know there isn't another way to reset the

      mac80211 about the lack of support.

      rt2x00: Add per-interface structure · 6bb40dd1
      Ivo van Doorn 提交于
      Rework the interface handling. Delete the interface structure
      and replace it with a per-interface structure. This changes the
      way rt2x00 handles the active interface drastically.
      
      Copy ieee80211_bss_conf to the this rt2x00_intf structure during
      the bss_info_changed() callback function. This will allow us to
      reference it later, and removes the requirement for the device flag
      SHORT_PREAMBLE flag which is interface specific.
      
      Drivers receive the option to give the maximum number of virtual
      interfaces the device can handle. Virtual interface support:
      rt2400pci: 1 sta or 1 ap, * monitor interfaces
      rt2500pci: 1 sta or 1 ap, * monitor interfaces
      rt2500usb: 1 sta or 1 ap, * monitor interfaces
      rt61pci: 1 sta or 4 ap, * monitor interfaces
      rt73usb: 1 sta or 4 ap, * monitor interfaces
      
      At the moment none of the drivers support AP and STA interfaces
      simultaneously, this is a hardware limitation so future support
      will be very unlikely.
      
      Each interface structure receives its dedicated beacon entry,
      with this we can easily work with beaconing while multiple master
      mode interfaces are currently active.
      
      The configuration handlers for the MAC, BSSID and type are
      often called together since they all belong to the interface
      configuration. Merge the 3 configuration calls and cleanup
      the API between rt2x00lib and the drivers. While we are cleaning
      up the interface configuration anyway, we might as well clean up
      the configuration handler as well.

      rt2x00: Queue handling overhaul · 181d6902
      Ivo van Doorn 提交于
      This introduces a big queue handling overhaul, this also
      renames "ring" to "queues".
      
      Move queue handling into rt2x00queue.c and the matching header,
      use Kerneldoc to improve rt2x00 library documentation.
      
      Access to the queues is now protected under a spinlock, this
      to prevent race conditions which could corrupt the indexing
      system of the queue.
      
      Each queue entry allocates x bytes for driver/device specific data,
      this cleans up the queue structure significantly and improves
      code readability.
      
      rt2500usb no longer needs 2 entries in the beacon queue to correctly
      send out the guardian byte. This is now handled in the entry specific
      structure.
      
      rt61 and rt73 now use the correct descriptor size for beacon frames,
      since this data is written into the registers not the entire TXD
      descriptor was used but instead of a subset of it named TXINFO.
      
      Finally this also fixes numerous other bugs related to incorrect
      beacon handling or beacon related code.
