Split the connectivity check and recovery routine into separated functions based on the types 1. iwl_good_ack_health() - check for ack count 2. iwl_good_plcp_health() - check for plcp error Based on the type of errors being detected, different recovery methods will be used to bring the system back to normal operational state. Because different NIC has different HW and uCode, the behavior is also different; these functions thus now form part of the ops infrastructure, so we can have more control on how to monitor and recover from error condition case per device.

Monitors the internal TX queues periodically. When a queue is stuck for some unknown conditions causing the throughput to drop and the transfer is stop, the driver will force firmware reload and bring the system back to normal operational state.

mac80211 recently implemented two new callbacks that are used to request station add/remove from the driver. The benefot from these new callbacks are that they enable the driver to sleep while performing this work. This is a big patch since a few things need to be coordinated in this move. First we need to decouple station management from rate scaling, which caused a lot of code to be moved and/or deleted. Next we needed to tie in with mac80211's station management callback and let it direct our station management as well as trigger the rate scaling initialization.

In iwlagn the support for spectrum measurement command has been disabled since v2.6.29 without any requests for it. In addition to this when this command is indeed enabled it has been found to trigger firmware SYSASSERT on at least 4965 and 5100 hardware (see http://bugzilla.intellinuxwireless.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1952 ). Since then this code has been bitrotting and cannot just be enabled without porting. Remove support for spectrum measurement command from iwlagn. It can be added back if there is a future need and the firmware problem it triggers has been fixed. Support for the spectrim measurement notification remains as it has been enabled all the time. In addition to this remove the 3945 spectrum measurement command Kconfig option and make this command always supported. The code added by this enabling is minimal and only run when user triggers a spectrum measurement request via sysfs.

Add function pointer for broadcast station addition so that we can call it in from iwlcore at a later time. We only distinguish between iwlagn and iwl3945 broadcast station addition. For the iwl3945 station addition we add that function to iwlcore since that is where most station functionality resides, making it part of iwl3945 will require significant code reorganization that will dilute station management functionality. This seems to be an efficient solution. It may seem as though we are removing error checking when adding the 3945 broadcast station but this error checking was never really necessary since the function returns the station id and the broadcast station id is always set.

We have seen the throughput dropped due to external noisy environment and the radio is out of tune. There are lot of plcp errors indicating this condition. Eventually the station can get de-authenticated by the Access Point. By resetting and tuning the radio, the plcp errors are reduced or eliminated and the throughput starts to rise. To prevent unexpected behavior such as drop in throughput or deauthentication, - The change provides the driver feature to monitor and tune the radio base on the statistics notification from the uCode. - It also allows the setting of the plcp error rate threshold via the plcp_delta under debugfs interface.

Adding "radio reset" function to help reset and stabilize the radio. During normal operation, sometime for unknown reason, radio encounter problem and can not recover by itself; the best way to recover from it is to reset and re-tune the radio. Currently, there is no RF reset command available, but since radio will get reset when switching channel, use internal hw scan request to force radio reset and get back to normal operation state. The internal hw scan will only perform passive scan on the first available channel (not the channel being used) in associated state. The request should be ignored if already performing scan operation or STA is not in associated state. Also include an "internal_scan" debugfs file to help trigger the internal scan from user mode.

Commit 250cce26 uses UTS_RELEASE as the the in-tree iwlwifi driver version. However the inclusion of generated/utsrelease.h makes it a unpleasant behaviour to recompile the driver everytime when utsrelease.h is updated. In fact, the driver module is already built with the UTS_RELEASE information via vermagic of modinfo. Mark the in-tree driver with the version string "in-tree" to distinguish with those old out-of-tree drivers.

When 802.11g was introduced, we had RTS/CTS and CTS-to-Self protection mechanisms. In an HT Beacon, HT stations use the "Operating Mode" field in the HT Information Element to determine whether or not to use protection. The Operating Mode field has 4 possible settings: 0-3: Mode 0: If all stations in the BSS are 20/40 MHz HT capable, or if the BSS is 20/40 MHz capable, or if all stations in the BSS are 20 MHz HT stations in a 20 MHz BSS Mode 1: used if there are non-HT stations or APs using the primary or secondary channels Mode 2: if only HT stations are associated in the BSS and at least one 20 MHz HT station is associated. Mode 3: used if one or more non-HT stations are associated in the BSS. When in operating modes 1 or 3, and the Use_Protection field is 1 in the Beacon's ERP IE, all HT transmissions must be protected using RTS/CTS or CTS-to-Self. By default, CTS-to-self is the preferred protection mechanism for less overhead and higher throughput; but using the full RTS/CTS will better protect the inner exchange from interference, especially in highly-congested environment. For 6000 series WIFI NIC, RTS/CTS protection mechanism is the recommended choice for HT traffic based on the HW design.
