The calibration results all come in while we're waiting for the calibration complete notification. As a consequence, there's no need to install a global RX handler for them, we can use the newly extended notification wait framework for this and make the code easier to follow. It is now quite explicit that we are processing the calibration results while waiting for the complete notification, before this was implicit and developers had to know this to understand why we wait for the calibration complete notification and what happens while we wait.

Sometimes, for example when we ask the uCode for calibration, we wait for the "complete" response while we also need the results that are sent in other, interim, notifications. Currently we handle this by installing an RX handler globally, but that isn't needed as this is the only time we want to use these notifications. So in order to be able to simplify at least future code that does the same, extend the notification wait framework to allow you to wait for multiple commands and decide based on the command whether the wait finished. While at it, also fix a race that can then become relevant -- if the wait function has returned true once it shouldn't be called again, today this can happen due to races between the triggering and the wakeup.

The flow handler (hardware) can put multiple frames into a single RX buffer. To handle this, walk the RX buffer and check if there are multiple valid packets in it. To let the upper layer handle this correctly introduce rxb_offset() which is needed when we pass pages to mac80211 -- we need to know the offset into the page there. Also change the page handling scheme to use refcounting. Anyone who needs a page will "steal" it, which marks it as having been used & refcounts it. The RX handler then has to free its own reference and must not reuse the page. Finally, do not set the bit asking the FH to give us each packet in a single buffer. This really enables the feature.

The current version of rtlwifi for USB operations uses kmalloc to acquire a 32-bit buffer for each read of the device. When _usb_read_sync() is called with the rcu_lock held, the result is a "sleeping function called from invalid context" BUG. This is reported for two cases in https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=42775. The first case has the lock originating from within rtlwifi and could be fixed by rearranging the locking; however, the second originates from within mac80211. The kmalloc() call is removed from _usb_read_sync() by creating a ring buffer pointer in the private area and allocating the buffer data in the probe routine.

Drivers that load firmware from their probe routine have problems with the latest versions of udev as they get timeouts while waiting for user space to start. The problem is fixed by using request_firmware_nowait() and delaying the start of mac80211 until the firmware is loaded. To prevent the possibility of the driver being unloaded while the firmware loading callback is still active, a completion queue entry is used. Also, to simplify the firmware loading procedure, this patch removes the old, unofficial and confusing fallback firmware names. However, they are still supported! So any user - who is still using them - is hereby advised to link/rename their old firmware filenames: isl3890usb to isl3886usb isl3887usb_bare to isl3887usb Signed-off-by: NLarry Finger <Larry.Finger@lwfinger.net> Signed-off-by: NChristian Lamparter <chunkeey@googlemail.com> Signed-off-by: NJohn W.

In the experiment with Azimuth ADEPT-n testbed where the APs transmit power was reduced to 25% and the signal strength was futher attenuated by 20dB and induced a path loss of ~7dB, the station was reporting beacon losses and the following issue were observed. * rx clear is stuck at low for more than 300ms * dcu chain and complete state is stuck at one of the hang signature This patch triggers the hang detection logic that recovers the chip from any of the above conditions. As the issue was originally reported in ChromeOs with AR9382 chips, this detection logic is enabled only for AR9380/2 chips.

This patch improves ANI operations by switching among the immunity levels based on PHY errors and beacon rssi which will adjust receiver desensitizing parameters. The changes are * Configure the Weak Signal Detection based on current immunity value. * At highest OFDM immunity level poor performance was observed with strong interference. By tuning the FIR step and spur immunity levels and not changing any weak signal detection thresholds at any level helped to improve the performance. * ANI took long time to recover back to lower immunity levels on heavy data load. As the listen time got reset to zero before reaching to the 5x of aniperiod, the immunity level is not lowering back even without any interference. This patch fix that.

In https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=770207, slowdowns of driver rtl8192ce are reported. One fix (commit a9b89e25) has already been applied, and it helped, but the maximum RX speed would still drop to 1 Mbps. As in the previous fix, the initial gain was determined to be the problem; however, the problem arises from a setting of the gain when scans are started.

When we have downlink traffic alone and the station is going thru bgscan, the client is out of operating channel for around 1000ms which is too long. The mac80211 decides when to switch back to oper channel based on tx queue, bad latency and listen time. As the station does not have tx traffic, the bgscan can easily affect downlink throughput. By reducing the listen time, it helps the associated AP to retain the downstream rate.

Currently the maximum noise floor limit is set as too high (-60dB). The assumption of having a higher threshold limit is that it would help de-sensitize the receiver (reduce phy errors) from continuous interference. But when we have a bursty interference where there are collisions and then free air time and if the receiver is desensitized too much, it will miss the normal packets too. Lets make use of chips specific min, nom and max limits always. This patch helps to improve the connection stability in congested networks.

The following patch aimed to resolve an issue where secondary, tertiary, etc. addresses added to bond interfaces could overwrite the bond->master_ip and vlan_ip values. commit 917fbdb3 Author: Henrik Saavedra Persson <henrik.e.persson@ericsson.com> Date: Wed Nov 23 23:37:15 2011 +0000 bonding: only use primary address for ARP That patch was good because it prevented bonds using ARP monitoring from sending frames with an invalid source IP address. Unfortunately, it didn't always work as expected. When using an ioctl (like ifconfig does) to set the IP address and netmask, 2 separate ioctls are actually called to set the IP and netmask if the mask chosen doesn't match the standard mask for that class of address. The first ioctl did not have a mask that matched the one in the primary address and would still cause the device address to be overwritten. The second ioctl that was called to set the mask would then detect as secondary and ignored, but the damage was already done. This was not an issue when using an application that used netlink sockets as the setting of IP and netmask came down at once. The inconsistent behavior between those two interfaces was something that needed to be resolved. While I was thinking about how I wanted to resolve this, Ralf Zeidler came with a patch that resolved this on a RHEL kernel by keeping a full shadow of the entries in dev->ifa_list for the bonding device and vlan devices in the bonding driver. I didn't like the duplication of the list as I want to see the 'bonding' struct and code shrink rather than grow, but liked the general idea. As the Subject indicates this patch drops the master_ip and vlan_ip elements from the 'bonding' and 'vlan_entry' structs, respectively. This can be done because a device's address-list is now traversed to determine the optimal source IP address for ARP requests and for checks to see if the bonding device has a particular IP address. This code could have all be contained inside the bonding driver, but it made more sense to me to EXPORT and call inet_confirm_addr since it did exactly what was needed. I tested this and a backported patch and everything works as expected. Ralf also helped with verification of the backported patch.

The RSS feature in tg3 hardware has only one rx producer ring for all RSS rings. NAPI vector 1 is special and handles the refilling of the rx producer ring on behalf of all RSS rings. There is a race condition between these RSS NAPIs and the NAPI[1]. If NAPI[1] finishes checking for refill and then another RSS ring empties the rx producer ring before NAPI[1] exits NAPI, the chip will be completely out of SKBs in the rx producer ring. We fix this by adding a flag tp->rx_refill and rely on napi_schedule()/ napi_complete() to help synchronize it to close the race condition. Update driver version to 3.123.
