2014-11-23iwlwifi: pcie: properly reset the deviceEmmanuel Grumbach1-1/+2
We were toggling the wrong bit when we reset the device, fix that. Moreover, since the reset can take time, we need to wait before we set the rfkill interrupt. Not doing so can be racy since the driver is enabling the rfkill interrupt while the device is resetting which will clear all the registers including the CSR_INT_MASK. This can basically lead to a situation where we don't enable the rfkill interrupt. If that happens, the user will not be able to re-enable the device when de-asserting rfkill.

For background and scheduled scan, using the new unified scan API, support random MAC address scanning. Unfortunately, the firmware right now doesn't support randomising itself, so for now do it on the host - we'll change this once the firmware supports randomising the address for each scan iteration using the address/mask.

2014-11-23iwlwifi: mvm: New skip over dtim policyAvri Altman1-5/+30
Our firmware scheduler suffers from false wake-up on 500 time units. that is if the dtim interval exceeds 500 time units, the fw wakes up, understands that the next wake-up event is still ahead, and if this event is more than 10msec in the future - goes back to sleep, otherwise - stay awake. For example, say that the beacon interval is 101 and the dtim period is 5, the dtim interval is 101 x 5 = 505, and we will stay awake for those extra 5msec. So on the one hand the dtim interval should be congruent to the beacon interval times the dtim period, and on the other should minimize the false wake-ups event. This change applies only to D0/D3 power modes. Signed-off-by: Avri Altman <avri.altman@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Emmanuel Grumbach <emmanuel.grumbach@intel.com>
