2010-11-22wl1271: Change wl12xx Files NamesShahar Levi1-485/+0
All files name prefix removed due to the fact that wl12xx driver supports wl1271 and wl1273. Also the definition in Kconfig and header files changed respectively. Signed-off-by: Shahar Levi <shahar_levi@ti.com> Signed-off-by: Luciano Coelho <luciano.coelho@nokia.com>
2010-11-15wl1271: exit ELP mode when setting enabled rates in txLuciano Coelho1-0/+5
This bug was being triggered by a call to acx_rate_policies in tx_work without calling ps_elp_wakeup first. If we have full PSM enabled, this happens rather often, immediately after association.

2010-11-15wl1271: Fix warning about unsupported RX rateTeemu Paasikivi1-1/+1
While scanning, it is possible that beacon and probe response frames are received on other band than configured to the driver. In rx status handling this has caused "Unsupported RX rate from HW" warnings. This patch changes the wl1271_rate_to_index function to take the band of the received frame as a parameter instead of using value configuret to wl->band.

2010-11-15wl1271: Fix TX queue low watermark handlingIdo Yariv1-13/+22
The number of entries in the TX queue is compared to the low watermark value each time TX completion interrupts are handled. However, the fact that a TX completion arrived does not necessarily mean there are any less skbs in the TX queue. In addition, a TX completion interrupt does not necessarily mean that there are any new available TX blocks. Thus, queuing TX work when the low watermark is reached might not be needed. Fix this by moving the low watermark handling to the TX work function, and avoid queuing TX work in this case.

2010-11-15wl1271: Allocate TX descriptors more efficientlyIdo Yariv1-16/+22

2010-11-15wl1271: Fix TX starvationIdo Yariv1-4/+10
While wl1271_irq_work handles RX directly (by calling wl1271_rx), a different work is scheduled for transmitting packets. The IRQ work might handle more than one interrupt during a single call, including multiple TX completion interrupts. This might starve TX, since no packets are transmitted until all interrupts are handled. Fix this by calling the TX work function directly, instead of deferring it.

2010-11-15wl1271: TX aggregation optimizationIdo Yariv1-8/+19
In case the aggregation buffer is too small to hold all available packets, the buffer is transferred to the FW and no more packets are aggregated. Although there may be enough available TX blocks, no additional packets will be handled by the current TX work. Fix this by flushing the aggregation buffer when it's full, and continue transferring packets as long as there are enough available TX blocks.

2009-10-27wl1271: fix endianess issuesLuciano Coelho1-9/+13
We were not handling endianess correctly. The wl1271 chip runs on little-endian values. This patch makes sure that all the communication with the wl1271 firmware is done in little-endian by using cpu_to_le* and le*_to_cpu where appropriate. Also, all the struct definitions for data exchanged with the firmware has been changed to use __le16/32 types instead of u16/32.
