The TX_STA_FIFO contains some information for identifying a outgoing frame, however matching by WCID and ACK status is not sufficient to 100% identify the macthing queue_entry structure (containing the SKB buffer) which belongs to the status report. Within TX_STA_FIFO we have a 4-bit field named PACKETID, which is currently used to encode the queue id. The queue ID is however limited to values from 0 to 3, which means 2 bits are sufficient to encode the value. With the remaining 2 bits we can encode a partial queue_entry index number. The value of PACKETID is not allowed to become 0, with the queue ID ranging from 0 to 3, at least one of the bits for the entry identification must be 1. That leaves us with 3 possible values we can still encode in the bits. Altough this doesn't allow 100% accurate matching of the TX_STA_FIFO queue to a queue_entry structure, it at least improves the accuracy. This allows us to better detect if we have missed the TX_STA_FIFO report, which in turn reduces the number of watchdog warnings regarding the TX status timeout.

rt61pci and rt2800 devices can use up to 7 different rates per tx frame. However, the device uses a global fallback table. Hence, the rc algortihm cannot specify multiple rates to try but the device is able to report multiple rates (based on the retry table). Specify that behavior by correctly setting max_report_rates and max_rates. This makes rt2x00 and minstrel play nicer together.

Some drivers cannot handle multiple retry rates specified by the rc algorithm but instead use their own retry table (for example rt2800). However, if such a device registers itself with a max_rates value of 1 the rc algorithm cannot make use of the extended information the device can provide about retried rates. On the other hand, if a device registers itself with a max_rates value > 1 the rc algorithm assumes that the device can handle multi rate retries. Fix this issue by introducing another hw parameter max_report_rates that can be set to a different value then max_rates to indicate if a device is capable of reporting more rates then specified in max_rates.

Since rt2x00 USB devices have no chance to know when a beacon was sent out in AP mode currently all broad- and multicast traffic is buffered in mac80211 but never sent out at all. Unfortunately we have no chance in sending the traffic out after a DTIM beacon due to hw limitations. Hence, instead of never sending the buffered traffic out better send it out immediately.

During rx, rt2x00lib calls rt2800pci_fill_rxdone to read the RX descriptor. At that time the skb is already dma unmapped but no new skb was dma mapped for this entry again. However, rt2800pci_fill_rxdone also moves the hw rx queue index, marking this entry to be available for reuse. Since no new skb was dma mapped and also the previous skb was unmapped this might lead to strange hw behavior. To fix this issue move the hw rx queue index increment to rt2800pci_clear_entry where a new skb was already dma mapped and can be safely used by the hw.

Since HT protection is now configurable via mac80211 we don't need this special case for PCI devices anymore. The HT protection config will be overwritten as soon as mac80211 sends us a HT operation mode. Hence, bring the HT MM40 protection config in sync with the other HT protection registers and initialize it to no protection.

Fix a check for dynamic SM PS mode in the STAs HT caps. Since a value of 3 means "SM PS disabled" the previous check assumed in that case that "dynamic SM PS" was enabled and as such prefixed every MCS>7 frame with a unnecessary RTS/CTS exchange.

This patch changes the way tx status reports are handled by rt2800pci. Previously rt2800pci would sometimes lose tx status reports as the TX_STA_FIFO register is a fifo of 16 entries that can overflow in case we don't read it often/fast enough. Since interrupts are disabled in the device during the execution of the interrupt thread it happend sometimes under high network and CPU load that processing took too long and a few tx status reports were dropped by the hw. To fix this issue the TX_STA_FIFO register is read directly in the interrupt handler and stored in a kfifo which is large enough to hold all status reports of all used tx queues. To process the status reports a new tasklet txstatus_tasklet is used. Using the already used interrupt thread is not possible since we don't want to disable the TX_FIFO_STATUS interrupt while processing them and it is not possible to schedule the interrupt thread multiple times for execution. A tasklet instead can be scheduled multiple times which allows to leave the TX_FIFO_STATUS interrupt enabled while a previously scheduled tasklet is still executing. In short: All other interrupts are handled in the interrupt thread as before. Only the TX_FIFO_STATUS interrupt is partly handled in the interrupt handler and finished in the according tasklet. One drawback of this patch is that it duplicates some code from rt2800lib. However, that can be cleaned up in the future once the rt2800usb and rt2800pci tx status handling converge more. Using this patch on a Ralink RT3052 embedded board gives me a reliable wireless connection even under high CPU and network load. I've transferred several gigabytes without any queue lockups.

On association to an AP, after receiving beacons, the beacon_crc value is set. The beacon_crc value is not reset in disassociation, but the BSS data may be expired at a later point. When associating again, it's possible that a beacon for the AP is not received, resulting in the beacon_ies to remain NULL. After association, further beacons will not update the beacon data, as the crc value of the beacon has not changed, and the beacon_crc still holds a value matching the beacon. The beacon_ies will remain forever null. One of the results of this is that WLAN power save cannot be entered, the STA will remain foreven in active mode. Fix this by adding a validation flag for the beacon_crc, which is cleared on association.

The hardware rx-filter was essentially disabled, because of a serve, yet unidentifiable problem with iwlagn. Due to these circumstances the driver and mac80211 were left with the job of filtering. This is very unfortunate and has proven to be expensive in terms of latency, memory and load. Therefore the new 1.8.8.3 firmware introduces a flexible filtering infrastructure which allows the driver to offload some of the checks (FCS & PLCP crc check, RA match, control frame filter, etc...) whenever possible. Note: This patch also includes all changes to the shared headers files since the inclusion. Signed-off-by: NChristian Lamparter <chunkeey@googlemail.com> Signed-off-by: NJohn W.
