2011-01-31rt2x00: Refactor beacon code to make use of start- and stop_queueHelmut Schaa14-85/+185
This patch allows to dynamically remove beaconing interfaces without shutting beaconing down on all interfaces. The only place to start and stop beaconing are now the start- and stop_queue callbacks. Hence, we can remove some register writes during interface bring up (config_intf) and only write the correct sync mode to the register there. When multiple beaconing interfaces are present we should enable beaconing as soon as mac80211 enables beaconing on at least one of them. The beacon queue gets stopped when the last beaconing interface was stopped by mac80211. Therefore, introduce another interface counter to keep track ot the number of enabled beaconing interfaces and start or stop the beacon queue accordingly. To allow single interfaces to stop beaconing, add a new driver callback clear_beacon to clear a single interface's beacon without affecting the other interfaces. Don't overload the clear_entry callback for clearing beacons as that would introduce additional overhead (check for each TX queue) into the clear_entry callback which is used on the drivers TX/RX hotpaths. Furthermore, the write beacon callback doesn't need to enable beaconing anymore but since beaconing should be disabled while a new beacon is written or cleared we still disable beacon generation and enable it afterwards again in the driver specific callbacks. However, beacon related interrupts should not be disabled/enabled here, that's solely done from the start- and stop queue callbacks. It would be nice to stop the beacon queue just before the beacon update and enable it afterwards in rt2x00queue itself instead of the current implementation that relies on the driver doing the right thing. However, since start- and stop_queue are mutex protected we cannot use them for atomic beacon updates.

Mac80211 can request for tx power and channel change in one ->config call. If that happens, *_send_tx_power functions will try to setup tx power for old channel, what can be not correct because we already change the band.

2011-01-28net/wireless/nl80211.c: Avoid call to genlmsg_cancelJulia Lawall1-2/+4
genlmsg_cancel subtracts some constants from its second argument before calling nlmsg_cancel. nlmsg_cancel then calls nlmsg_trim on the same arguments. nlmsg_trim tests for NULL before doing any computation, but a NULL second argument to genlmsg_cancel is no longer NULL due to the initial subtraction. Nothing else happens in this execution, so the call to genlmsg_cancel is simply unnecessary in this case. The semantic match that finds this problem is as follows: (http://coccinelle.lip6.fr/) // <smpl> @@ expression data; @@ if (data == NULL) { ... * genlmsg_cancel(..., data); ... return ...; } // </smpl> Signed-off-by: Julia Lawall <julia@diku.dk> Signed-off-by: John W.

2011-01-28ath5k: Fix short and long retry configurationBruno Randolf6-51/+44
The register definition for retry configuration on AR5212 was wrong, and simply copied over from AR5210. Update the register definitions from the documentation. Let the short and long retries be configured from mac80211 and use the standard values of 7 and 4 by default. Also we need to make sure we don't export more retries than we are configured for to mac80211 (and the rate module) in hw->max_rate_tries. Also clean up the code by removing unused defines and variables and drop the different values for "station retries" - if these need to be different it can be handled tru ah_retry_long/short.

Commit "ath9k_hw: Relocate Opmode initialization" moved the opmode initialization before the STA_ID1 register was programmed with defaults. This changed the original behaviour because the re-programming code doesn't take into account the existing value in the register. Both ath9k and ath9k_htc were not affected by this change because the opmode is re-initialized after every reset, when RX is started. Revert to the original behavior, except keep it outside the REGWRITE block. This would help remove extraneous opmode calls in the driver core.

2011-01-28ath5k: use tracing for packet tx/rx dumpBob Copeland3-6/+128
This adds a few tracepoints to ath5k driver transmit and receive callbacks in order to record packet traffic. We record the entire packet in the trace buffer so that the data can be extracted with trace-cmd and external plugins. Compared to the previous debugging calls, this approach removes an out-of-line function call from the tx and rx paths in the compiled-in-but-disabled case, while improving the ability to process the logged data. A new option, CONFIG_ATH5K_TRACER, is added so that one may disable the tracepoints completely.

This adds a helper function to ath/regd.c which can be asked if 4.9GHz channels are allowed for a given regulatory domain code. This keeps the knowledge of regdomains and defines like MKK9_MKKC in one place. I'm passing the regdomain code instead of the ath_regulatory structure because this needs to be called quite early in the driver inititalization where ath_regulatory is not available yet in ath5k. I'm using MKK9_MKKC only because this is the regdomain in the 802.11j enabled sample cards we got from our vendor. I found some hints in HAL code that this is used by Atheros to indicate 4.9GHz channels support and that there might be other domain codes as well, but as I don't have any documentation I'm just putting in what I need right now.

2011-01-28ath9k: fix tx queue index confusion in debugfs codeFelix Fietkau3-20/+21
Various places printing tx queue information used various different ways to get a tx queue index for printing statistics. Most of these ways were wrong. ATH_TXQ_AC_* cannot be used as an index for sc->tx.txq, because it is only used internally for queue assignment. One place used WME_AC_* as a queue index for sc->debug.stats.txstats, however this array uses the ath9k_hw queue number as well. Fix all of this by always using the ath9k_hw queue number as an index, and always looking it up by going through sc->tx.txq_map.

To prevent queue draining from waking the queues prematurely (e.g. during a hardware reset), reset the queue stop state when draining all queues, as the caller in main.c will run ieee80211_wake_queues(hw) anyway.

2011-01-28ath9k: Fix power save usage count imbalance on deinitRajkumar Manoharan2-2/+2
While unloading the driver, the ps_usecount is incremented before configuring gpio registers in deinit_device. But it is failed to restore the ps_usecount after that. The problem is that the chip is forcibly moved to FULL SLEEP by radio_disable when mac80211 is reporting as idle though ps_usecount is not zero. This patch retores ps_usecount properly and ensures that the chip is always moved to full sleep only if ps usage count is zero which also helps in debugging deadbeef on multivif case.
