ath9k: Enable PLL fix only for AR9340/AR9330

2013-08-22T18:21:04+00:00

The PLL hang workaround is required only for AR9330 and AR9340. This issue was first observed on an AP121 and the WAR is enabled for AR9340 also (DB120 etc.), since it uses a PLL design identical to AR9330. This is not required for AR9485 and AR9550. Various bugs have been reported regarding this: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=997217 https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=994648 Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org Signed-off-by: Sujith Manoharan Signed-off-by: John W.

ath9k_htc: Restore skb headroom when returning skb to mac80211

2013-08-22T18:21:03+00:00

ath9k_htc adds padding between the 802.11 header and the payload during TX by moving the header. When handing the frame back to mac80211 for TX status handling the header is not moved back into its original position. This can result in a too small skb headroom when entering ath9k_htc again (due to a soft retransmission for example) causing an skb_under_panic oops. Fix this by moving the 802.11 header back into its original position before returning the frame to mac80211 as other drivers like rt2x00 or ath5k do.

mac80211: add a flag to indicate CCK support for HT clients

2013-08-21T13:03:25+00:00

brcm80211 cannot handle sending frames with CCK rates as part of an A-MPDU session. Other drivers may have issues too. Set the flag in all drivers that have been tested with CCK rates. This fixes a reported brcmsmac regression introduced in commit ef47a5e4f1aaf1d0e2e6875e34b2c9595897bef6 "mac80211/minstrel_ht: fix cck rate sampling" Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org # 3.10 Reported-by: Tom Gundersen Signed-off-by: Felix Fietkau Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg

ath9k_htc: reboot firmware if it was loaded

2013-07-22T20:04:08+00:00

Currently ath9k_htc will reboot firmware only if interface was ever started. Which lead to the problem in case where interface was never started but module need to be reloaded. This patch will partially fix bug "ath9k_htc: Target is unresponsive" https://github.com/qca/open-ath9k-htc-firmware/issues/1 Reproduction case: - plug adapter - make sure nothing will touch it. Stop Networkmanager or blacklist mac address of this adapter. - rmmod ath9k_htc; sleep 1; modprobe ath9k_htc Signed-off-by: Oleksij Rempel Cc: Signed-off-by: John W. Linville

ath9k_htc: do some initial hardware configuration

2013-07-22T20:04:07+00:00

Currently we configure harwdare and clock, only after interface start. In this case, if we reload module or reboot PC without configuring adapter, firmware will freeze. There is no software way to reset adpter. This patch add initial configuration and set it in disabled state, to avoid this freeze. Behaviour of this patch should be similar to: ifconfig wlan0 up; ifconfig wlan0 down.
