Similar to the number of tx queue, the number of keycache entries depends on the chip and shouldn't be messed with based on EEPROM data. Remove this field and stick to using AR_KEYTABLE_SIZE Signed-off-by: Felix Fietkau <nbd@openwrt.org> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>

The EEPROM contains a field that can restrict the number of hardware queues, however this is not only useless (all the known chips contain the same number of hardware queues), but also potentially dangerous in case of a misprogrammed EEPROM (could trigger driver crashes), so let's just ignore it completely.

2011-03-30ath9k: fix stuck beacon detectionFelix Fietkau2-9/+9
Stuck beacon detection is supposed to trigger when 9 consecutive beacons could not be sent by the hardware. When the driver runs only one active AP mode interface, it still configures the hardware beacon timer for 4 (ATH_BCBUF) beacon slots slots, which causes stuck beacon detection to be reset if ath9k_hw_stoptxdma clears the stuck frames between SWBA intervals. Fix this by not resetting the missed beacon count for empty slots and multiplying the threshold not by the maximum number of beacon slots but by the configured number of beacon interfaces.

2011-03-30ath9k: trigger nfcal only after multiple missed beacons in AP modeFelix Fietkau1-1/+2
Single missed (i.e. not transmitted) beacons in AP mode are not very rare and not necessarily an indicator of strong interference, so only trigger noise floor recalibration when multiple consecutive beacons could not be transmitted. Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>
2011-03-30ath9k: fix beacon timer handling issuesFelix Fietkau5-79/+49
AP mode beacon timers in ath9k are configured in milliseconds, which breaks when increasing ATH_BCBUF to 8 instead of 4 (due to rounding errors). Since the hardware timers are actually configured in microseconds, it's better to let the driver use that unit directly. To be able to do that, the beacon interval parameter abuse for passing certain flags needs to be removed. This is easy to do, because those flags are completely unnecessary anyway. ATH9K_BEACON_ENA is ignored, ATH9K_BEACON_RESET_TSF can be replaced with calling ath9k_hw_reset_tsf from the driver directly. Signed-off-by: Felix Fietkau <nbd@openwrt.org> Signed-off-by: John W.

2011-03-30ath9k: remove the pending frames ath_txq_schedule workaroundFelix Fietkau1-27/+0
This workaround called ath_txq_schedule whenever there were still pending frames for a queue, but the queue depth was zero. Because of its its high false positive probability (e.g. with paused TIDs) and because it is in the way of other pending work (AP powersave fixes), it is better to remove this code entirely.

2011-03-30ath9k_hw: force rx chainmask to 7 on AR9100Felix Fietkau1-0/+2
Most AR9100 devices already have a chainmask of 7 (three antennas), however on the ones that don't (rx and tx chainmask set to 5), problems with IQ mismatch calibration have been observed. This shows up as tx queue hangs (and subsequent hardware resets) if traffic is sent during this type of calibration. Forcing the rx chainmask to 7 fixes the calibration issues with no apparent negative side effects on throughput and stability. Signed-off-by: Felix Fietkau <nbd@openwrt.org> Signed-off-by: John W.

2011-03-30ath9k_hw: Speedup register ops for HTC driverRajkumar Manoharan5-5/+27
Fine-tuning register write operation and avoid unnecessay delays for ath9k_htc driver, saves hw reset time which improves scanning time and also solves one of the following scenario. Sometimes the ACK is sent by STA for assoc response is not seen at AP side. So the AP continues to send retry assoc responses. At the STA side, since the assoc response was already forwarded to mac80211, it proceeded to channel change which in turns does chip reset. In most of the cases the chip reset was completed before max retries are reached at AP side. Hence STA can able to ACK the retried frames again. But in clear environment these retries are completed within shortspan of time. Since ath9k_htc consumes more time for hw reset, this latency is causing dissociation by AP due to max reties are reached. This issue was originally reported with Cisco Aironet 1250 AP in HT40 mode in noise free environment. Signed-off-by: Rajkumar Manoharan <rmanoharan@atheros.com> Signed-off-by: John W.

commit 86271e460a66003dc1f4cbfd845adafb790b7587 introduced a regression that caused mac80211 queues in stopped state. ath_drain_all_txq is called in driver flush which would reset the stopped flag and the mac80211 queues were never started after that. iperf traffic is completely stalled due to this issue. Restart the mac80211 queues in driver flush only if the txqs were drained. Signed-off-by: Senthil Balasubramanian <senthilkumar@atheros.com> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>
2011-03-23ath9k: Fix kernel panic caused by invalid rate index access.Senthil Balasubramanian1-1/+1
With the recent tx status optimization in mac80211, we bail out as and and when invalid rate index is found. So the behavior of resetting rate idx to -1 and count to 0 has changed for the rate indexes that were not part of the driver's retry series. This has resulted in ath9k using incorrect rate table index which caused the system to panic. Ideally ath9k need to loop only for the indexes that were part of the retry series and so simply use hw->max_rates as the loop counter. Pasted the stack trace of the panic issue for reference.

Kernel panic occurs just after AR2427 establishes connection with AP. Unless aggregation is enabled we don't initialize the TID structure.

2011-03-14ath9k: improve reliability of beacon transmission and stuck beacon handlingFelix Fietkau3-74/+12
ath9k calls ath9k_hw_stoptxdma every time it sends a beacon, however there is not much point in doing that if the previous beacon and mcast traffic went out properly. On AR9380, calling that function too often can result in an increase of stuck beacons due to differences in the handling of the queue enable/disable functionality. With this patch, the queue will only be explicitly stopped if the previous data frames were not sent successfully. With the beacon code being the only remaining user of ath9k_hw_stoptxdma, this function can be simplified in order to remove the now pointless attempts at waiting for transmission completion, which would never happen at this point due to the different method of tx scheduling of the beacon queue.

2011-03-14ath9k: fix the .flush driver op implementationFelix Fietkau3-51/+34
This patch simplifies the flush op and reuses ath_drain_all_txq for flushing out pending frames if necessary. It also uses a global timeout of 200ms instead of the per-queue 60ms timeout. Signed-off-by: Felix Fietkau <nbd@openwrt.org> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>
2011-03-14ath9k: fix stopping tx dma on resetFelix Fietkau3-8/+35
In some situations, stopping Tx DMA frequently fails, leading to messages like this: ath: Failed to stop TX DMA in 100 msec after killing last frame ath: Failed to stop TX DMA! This patch uses a few MAC features to abort DMA globally instead of iterating over all hardware queues and attempting to stop them individually. Not only is that faster and works with a shorter timeout, it also makes the process much more reliable. With this change, I can no longer trigger these messages on AR9380, and on AR9280 they become much more rare. Signed-off-by: Felix Fietkau <nbd@openwrt.org> Signed-off-by: John W.

2011-03-11ath9k: remove support for the FIF_PROMISC_IN_BSS filter flagFelix Fietkau1-3/+1
The hardware rx filter flag triggered by FIF_PROMISC_IN_BSS is overly broad and covers even frames with PHY errors. When this flag is enabled, this message shows up frequently during scanning or hardware resets: ath: Could not stop RX, we could be confusing the DMA engine when we start RX up Since promiscuous mode is usually not particularly useful, yet enabled by default by bridging (either used normally in 4-addr mode, or with hacks for various virtualization software), we should sacrifice it for better reliability during normal operation. This patch leaves it enabled if there are active monitor mode interfaces, since it's very useful for debugging.
