The elp_work is being enqueued on wl1271_ps_elp_sleep, but doesn't get cancelled on wl1271_ps_elp_wakeup. This might cause immediate entrance to elp when the wl->mutex is being released, rather than using the delayed enqueueing optimization. Cancel elp_work on wakeup request, and add a new WL1271_FLAG_ELP_REQUESTED flag to further synchronize the elp actions.

In AP mode we register for the MAX_TX_RETRY and INACTIVE_STA events. Both are reported to the upper layers as a TX failure in the offending stations. In STA mode we register only for the MAX_TX_RETRY event. A TX failure is interpreted as a loss of connection. Support for IEEE80211_HW_REPORTS_TX_ACK_STATUS has been removed to avoid the inherent race condition of a mac80211 TX failure counter in addition to the FW counter.

2011-04-19wl12xx: Handle platforms without level trigger interruptsIdo Yariv4-2/+28
Some platforms are incapable of triggering on level interrupts. Add a platform quirks member in the platform data structure, as well as an edge interrupt quirk which can be set on such platforms. When the interrupt is requested with IRQF_TRIGGER_RISING, IRQF_ONESHOT cannot be used, as we might miss interrupts that occur after the FW status is cleared and before the threaded interrupt handler exits. Moreover, when IRQF_ONESHOT is not set, iterating more than once in the threaded interrupt handler introduces a few race conditions between this handler and the hardirq handler. Currently this is worked around by limiting the loop to one iteration only. This workaround has an impact on performance. To remove to this restriction, the race conditions will need to be addressed.

2011-04-19wl12xx: Simplify TX blocks accountingIdo Yariv4-31/+24
The total number of TX memory blocks may change when the dynamic memory option is enabled. The current implementation only tracks the available memory blocks, which over-complicates TX blocks accounting. By tracking the number of allocated blocks, calculation of the number of available blocks becomes simpler and cleaner. It simply equals the total number of TX memory blocks minus the allocated ones. Also, remove some unnecessary castings and use union member accesses instead.

2011-04-19wl12xx: Clean up the dummy packet mechanismIdo Yariv4-39/+89
The current implementation allocates a skb each time one is requested by the firmware. Since dummy packets are handled differently than regular packets, the skb needs to be marked. Currently, this is done by setting the pkt_type member to 5. This might not be safe, as we cannot be sure that there won't be any other packets with this pkt_type value. Since the packet does not change from one request to another, we can simply allocate a dummy packet template and always send it. All changes to the skb done during packet preparation must be reverted, so the same skb can be reused. The dummy packets are not transmitted, therefore there's no need to set the BSSID or our own MAC address. In addition, the header portion of the packet was zeroed by mistake, so fix that as well.

Move the alignment code into a function instead of duplicating it in multiple places. 3.

2011-04-19wl12xx: fix "JOIN while associated" commentaryOhad Ben-Cohen1-4/+4
Issuing multiple JOIN commands to the wl12xx's firmware, while we're associated, might have undesired implications, so the driver prints a message when that happens, and warn developers who check out the source. Update the commentary in order to consider the one valid scenario where this can happen: roaming. Cautiously keep the message for now, until we either gain confidence there are no unintentional JOIN-while-associated events, or until we move to the new multi-role fw who solves this multiple-join issue for good.

2011-04-19wl12xx: fix roamingOhad Ben-Cohen3-2/+27
The wl12xx device normally drops all frames coming from BSSID it is not joined with. This behavior is configured today by the wl12xx driver in response to a handful of ieee80211_bss_change and ieee80211_conf_changed notification flags, such as BSS_CHANGED_ASSOC, BSS_CHANGED_BSSID, IEEE80211_CONF_CHANGE_IDLE, etc.. This breaks when we roam to a new BSSID, where authentication frames are sent before any BSS_CHANGED/CONF_CHANGED flags are received. When this happens the hardware silently drops the authentication responses, and the roaming fails. Ideally this aggressive filtering behavior of the device should be disabled upon a notification from mac80211. Such notification will take place after multi-channel support will be added: mac80211 will likely send a remain-on-channel notification to drivers when entering sensitive states (like authentication), otherwise the firmware might jump to different channels (to serve a different role). Until those notifications materialize, disable the hw BSSID filter when authentication requests are sent, so roaming would work.

2011-04-19wl12xx: rearrange some ELP wake_up/sleep callsEliad Peller4-43/+36
ELP (Extremely/Enhanced Low Power, or something like that ;)) refers to the powerstate of the 12xx chip, in which very low power is consumed, and no commands (from the host) can be issued until the chip is woken up. Wakeup/sleep commands must be protected by a wl->mutex, so it's generally a good idea to call wakeup/sleep along with the mutex lock/unlock (where needed). However, in some places the wl12xx driver calls wakeup/sleep in some "inner" functions. This result in some "nested" wakeup/sleep calls which might end up letting the chip go to sleep prematurely (e.g. during event handling). Fix it by rearranging the elp calls to come along with mutex_lock/unlock.

2011-04-19wl12xx: set the skbuff priority for dummy packetsLuciano Coelho2-3/+2
The firmware requires dummy packets to be sent using TID 7 (WL1271_TID_MGMT). Instead of hardcoding it in the tx_fill_hdr() function, set it when creating the packet itself.

2011-04-19wl12xx: Clamp byte mode transfers for 128x chipsArik Nemtsov2-0/+6
On wl128x based devices, when TX packets are aggregated, each packet size must be aligned to the SDIO block size, and sent using block mode transfers. The block size is set to 256 bytes, which is less than the maximum possible byte transfer. Thus, if two small packets (< 256 bytes) are aggregated, the aggregation buffer size would be 512, and will be sent using byte mode transfers. This can have undesired side effects. Fix this by setting the MMC_QUIRK_BLKSZ_FOR_BYTE_MODE mmc card quirk. For 127x chips this has no effect, as the block size is set to 512 bytes.
