According to the hardware documentation, the MIC failure bit is only
valid if the frame was decrypted using a valid TKIP key and is not a
fragment.
In some setups I've seen hardware-reported MIC failures on an AP that
was configured for CCMP only, so it's clear that additional checks are
necessary.

When the noise floor limits are being bypassed because of strong
interference, sensitivity is also reduced.
In order to recover from this as quickly as possible, trigger a
long periodic calibration every second instead of every 30 seconds,
until the NF median is within limits again. This is especially important
if the interference lasts for a while, since it takes multiple clean
NF calibrations to bring the median back to normal.

When beacons get stuck in AP mode, the most likely cause is interference.
Such interference can often go on for a while, and too many consecutive
beacon misses can lead to connected clients getting dropped.

Since connected clients might not be subjected to the same interference
if that happens to be very local, the AP should try to deal with it as
good as it can. One way to do this is to trigger an NF calibration with
automatic baseband update right after the beacon miss. In my tests with
very strong interference, this allowed the AP to continue transmitting
beacons after only 2-3 misses, which allows a normal client to stay
connected.

With some of the newer - really sensitive - chips, the maximum noise
floor limit is very low, which can be problematic during very strong
interference. To avoid an endless loop of stuck beacons -> nfcal ->
periodic calibration -> stuck beacons, the beacon miss event also sets
a flag, which allows the calibration code to bypass the chip specific
maximum NF value. This flag is automatically cleared, as soon as the
first NF median goes back below the limits for all chains.

In my tests, this allowed an ath9k AP to survive very strong interference
(measured NF: -68, or sometimes even higher) without losing connectivity
to its clients. Even under these conditions, I was able to transmit
several mbits/s through the interface.

Atheros PCIe wireless cards handled by ath5k do require L0s disabled.
For distributions shipping with CONFIG_PCIEASPM (this will be enabled
by default in the future in 2.6.36) this will also mean both L1 and L0s
will be disabled when a pre 1.1 PCIe device is detected. We do know L1
works correctly even for all ath5k pre 1.1 PCIe devices though but cannot
currently undue the effect of a blacklist, for details you can read
pcie_aspm_sanity_check() and see how it adjusts the device link
capability.

It may be possible in the future to implement some PCI API to allow
drivers to override blacklists for pre 1.1 PCIe but for now it is
best to accept that both L0s and L1 will be disabled completely for
distributions shipping with CONFIG_PCIEASPM rather than having this
issue present. Motivation for adding this new API will be to help
with power consumption for some of these devices.

Example of issues you'd see:

  - On the Acer Aspire One (AOA150, Atheros Communications Inc. AR5001
    Wireless Network Adapter [168c:001c] (rev 01)) doesn't work well
    with ASPM enabled, the card will eventually stall on heavy traffic
    with often 'unsupported jumbo' warnings appearing. Disabling
    ASPM L0s in ath5k fixes these problems.

  - On the same card you would see a storm of RXORN interrupts
    even though medium is idle.

Some APs advertise that they may be HT40 capable in the capabilites
but the current operating channel configuration may be only HT20.
This causes disconnection as ath9k_htc sets WLAN_RC_40_FLAG despite

Hence set this flag only if the current channel configuration

ath9k_rx_skb_preprocess nulls rxs and the mactime is never set again -
mactime is always 0. This causes problems in IBSS mode.

ieee80211_rx_bss_info uses mactime to decide if an IBSS merge is needed.
Without this patch the merge is triggered by each beacon received.

I noticed a possible issue in the paused flag management of the
ath_atx_tid data structure. In particular, in a noisy environment and
under heavy load, I observed that the AGGR session establishment could
fail several times consecutively causing values of the paused flag
greater than one for this TID (ath_tx_pause_tid is called more than
once from ath_tx_aggr_start).

Considering that the session for this TID can not be established also
after the mac80211 stack calls the ieee80211_agg_tx_operational() since
the ath_tx_aggr_resume() lowers the paused flag only by one.

This patch also replaces some BUG_ON calls with WARN_ON, as even if
these unlikely conditions happen, it's not fatal enough to justify a

AR9003 was not relying on the CTL indexes from the EEPROM for capping the
max output power. The CTL indexes from the EEPROM provide calibrated
limits for output power for each tested and supported frequency. Without
this the device operates at a power level which only conforms to the
transmit spectrum mask as specified by IEEE Annex I.2.3.

The regulatory limit by CRDA is always used but does not provide
calibrated values for optimal performance, specially on band edges.
Using the calibrated data from the EEPROM ensures the device
operates at optimal output power while still ensuring proper
regulatory compliance. The device uses the minimum of these tree
values, the value from CRDA, the calibrated value from CTL indexex,
and the value to conform to the IEEE transmit spectrum mask.

The noise floor history buffer is currently not kept per channel, which
can lead to problems when changing channels from a clean channel to a
noisy one. Also when switching from HT20 to HT40, the noise floor
history buffer is full of measurements, but none of them contain data
for the extension channel, which it needs quite a bit of time to recover
from.

This patch puts all the per-channel calibration data into a single data
structure, and gives the the driver control over whether that is used
per-channel or even not used for some channels.

For ath9k_htc, I decided to keep this per-channel in order to avoid
creating regressions.

For ath9k, the data is kept only for the operating channel, which saves
some space. ath9k_hw takes care of wiping old data when the operating
channel or its channel flags change.

Previously the software scan callback was used to indicate to the hardware,
when it was safe to calibrate. This didn't really work properly, because it
depends on a specific order of software scan callbacks vs. channel changes.
Also, software scans are not the only thing that triggers off-channel
activity, so it's better to use the newly added indication from mac80211 for
this and not use the software scan callback for anything calibration related.
