rtl8180 has one register for analog converters setting ,rtl8185 has two and rtl8187se has three. Setting those registers require more than a simple write, and for one of them a function is already provided.

On currently supported HW there are four TX queues (three for normal packets and one for beacons). The driver uses just one TX queue, and declare to mac80211 to support just one queue, but it allocates coherent memory for all queues. Furthermore the TX is code is written assumimg four queues exists, and even if we decide to enable more queues in future, its mapping rule to mac80211 is fixed. This means we have memory waste on rtl8180/rtl8185, and we have also not enough flexibility to add support for boards (rtl8187se) that will use more queues. This patch changes things in order to allocate coherent memory only for the queues effectively used and it make it possible to specify how to map hardware queues on mac80211 queues, that will be used by rtl8187se code as soon it will be merged. Note: even if the beacon queue is currently unused, this should change, so I kept it. Signed-off-by: NAndrea Merello <andrea.merello@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: NJohn W.

SLOT, SIFS, DIFS, EIFS, CW and ACK-timeout registers are set in an RF-code callback and their values are fixed. This patch moves this off the rf-code, and introduce two new functions that calculate these values depending by slot time and CW values requested by mac80211. This seems to improve performances on my setup. Currently the ack and slot time values could be stored in a local variable, but this patch stores it in the driver "priv" structure because it will be useful for rtl8187se support that will be added (hopefully) soon.

Currently a "r8185" integer variable is used as a boolean flag to indicate whether the card is a rtl8185 or not. Since now the driver supports only rtl8185 and rtl8180 cards, if "r8185" variable is zero then the card is implicitly assumed to be a rtl8180. Now I'm preparing to add support for a third card type (rtl8187se). This patch changes the "r8185" flag with an enum variable to explicitly indicate which card type we have. I'm submitting this this patch now, even if I still have to submit other patches that not pertain with rtl8187se support, because IMHO it's not worth rebasing them on the current code, using r8185 flag, and then changing them back again nearly immediately. BTW if someone feels I really should do this, please tell me.. Signed-off-by: NAndrea Merello <andrea.merello@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: NJohn W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>

The TX descriptors are consumed by the HW using DMA. Even if in the driver code the TX descriptor writes appears before the HW "dma kick" register writes, the CPU may reorder them. If this happens, the TX may not happen at all becase the "valid" descriptor flag may have not been set yet. This patch adds a write memory barrier to ensures the TX descriptor is written before writing to the HW "dma kick" register.

The TX descriptors are consumed by the HW using DMA. Even if in the driver code the memory write that sets the "valid" flag appears after all other writes, the CPU may reorder writes, causing the HW to consider as valid a not-fully-written yet descriptor. This may cause HW incorrect behaviour. This can happen because (AFAIK) the HW may attempt DMA asynchronously without waiting to be kicked by the following register write. This patch adds a write memory barrier to enforce writes ordering.

Certain HW options (TX packet retry count, CW configuration and TX power configuration) can be specified in both the TX packet descriptor and also into HW "global" registers. The HW is thus configured to honour the global register or the TX descriptor field depending by the case.

During driver initialization, some skbs are preallocated for RX. Currenly if the allocation fails, the driver's allocation routine exits immediatly but it will return zero (success) anyway. In this way the driver will continue initialization with buggy pointers around. This patch makes the driver's allocation routine to return an error value and to print a complaint message when skb allocation fails. In this way its caller will not go further, avoinding the driver to successfully load, and preventing dereferencing buggy pointers. An hint is thus printed about why the driver failed.

During initialization a number of RX skbs are allocated and mapped for DMA. Currently if pci_map_single() fails, it will result in passing to the HW a wrong DMA address (to write to!).

This patch fixes regression caused by commit a16dad77 "MIPS: Fix potencial corruption". That commit fixes one corruption scenario in cost of adding another one, which actually start to cause crashes on Yeeloong laptop when rtl8187 driver is used. For correct DMA read operation on machines without DMA coherence, kernel have to invalidate cache, such it will refill later with new data that device wrote to memory, when that data is needed to process. We can only invalidate full cache line. Hence when cache line includes both dma buffer and some other data (written in cache, but not yet in main memory), the other data can not hit memory due to invalidation. That happen on rtl8187 where struct rtl8187_priv fields are located just before and after small buffers that are passed to USB layer and DMA is performed on them. To fix the problem we align buffers and reserve space after them to make them match cache line. This patch does not resolve all possible MIPS problems entirely, for that we have to assure that we always map cache aligned buffers for DMA, what can be complex or even not possible. But patch fixes visible and reproducible regression and seems other possible corruptions do not happen in practice, since Yeeloong laptop works stable without rtl8187 driver.

In rtl8180/rtl8187 drivers, few register bit definitions have names of form FOOBAR_SHIFT, suggesting they should be used as shift offset, for example reg |= (1 << ENABLE_FOO_SHIFT). However they are actually defined as (1 << x) and thus they are used (correctly) like reg |= ENABLE_FOO_SHIFT; This patch kills the misleading _SHIFT suffix.

In original code the old RX DMA buffer is unmapped and processed and at the end of the isr a new buffer is mapped with pci_map_single and attached to the RX descriptor. If pci_map_single fails then the RX descriptor remains with no valid DMA buffer attached. In this condition the DMA will target where it shouldn't with obvious evil consequences. Simply avoiding re-arming the descriptor will prevent buggy DMA but it will result soon in RX stuck. This patch move the DMA mapping of the new buffer at the beginning of the ISR (and it adds error check for pci_map_single success/fail). If the DMA mapping fails then we do not unmap the old buffer and we re-arm the descriptor without processing it, with the old DMA buffer still attached. In this way we lose the currently RX-ed packet, but whenever next calls to pci_map_single will succeed again,then the RX process will go on without stuck.
