Periodic RX interrupt needed with ICT interrupt to prevent RX race. Sending RX interrupt require many steps to be done in the the device: 1- write interrupt to current index in ICT table. 2- dma RX frame. 3- update RX shared data to indicate last write index. 4- send interrupt. This could lead to RX race, driver could receive RX interrupt but the shared data changes does not reflect that. this could lead to RX race, RX periodic will solve this race Signed-off-by: Mohamed Abbas <mohamed.abbas@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Reinette Chatre <reinette.chatre@intel.com> Signed-off-by: John W.

If RX queue becomes empty then we need to restock the queue from tasklet to prevent ucode from starving. A caller to iwl_rx_allocate will decide if allocated buffer should come from GFP_ATOMIC or GFP_KERNEL.

Add ICT interrupt handler support, ICT should improve CPU utilization since it does not require target read which is very expensive. This interrupt handler only added to 5000 cards and newer. Device will write interrupts to ICT shared table to inform driver about its interrupts. These patches will not touch 3945 and 4965 interrupt handlers and tasklet.

Add new lock to be used when accessing some registers. Also move the register lock and iwl_grab_nic_access inside the function for register access. This will prevent from forgetting to hold locks and nic access in the right way and make code easier to maintain. We over use the priv->lock spin lock and I guess we need to add new one for Tx queue after that we might need to change most of these lock to BH and just keep priv->lock as irq type.

'tpt' is a delta throughput (number of packets) and is corelated to brightness of the LED. We already maintain a delta of packets in rxtxpackets. There is no need to calculate this delta again which was affecting the behaviour of LEDS. Also add two new callback functions for ASSOCIATED/DISASSOCIATED states where LED's will be *on* for associated state and *off* for disassociated state.

The scratch pad register is used to store firmware status after firmware is downloaded and initialized. After firmware status is verified OK, the same register is used to store RX packet length. Hence the firmware status code is no longer valid afterwards. SD8688 firmware introduces a new register for firmware status which will never be overwritten. Also add scratch_reg variable to if_sdio_card structure and initialize it based on the model of the card during probe.

The patch moves some utility functions from mac80211 to cfg80211. Because these functions are doing generic 802.11 operations so they are not mac80211 specific. The moving allows some fullmac drivers to be also benefit from these utility functions.

Some APs seem to drift away from the expected TBTT (timestamp % beacon_int_in_usec differs quite a bit from zero) which can result in us waking up way too early to receive a Beacon frame. In order to work around this, re-configure the Beacon timers after having received a Beacon frame from the AP (i.e., when we know the offset between the expected TBTT and the actual time the AP is sending out the Beacon frame).

The previous version used a simple loop to go through all Beacon frames when determining the next TBTT and DTIM count. This is not too bad for the case where the setup happens before timesync (i.e., very small TSF), but this can become very heavy operation if a short Beacon interval is used and the current TSF is large. In preparation for a patch to update timer setup based on Beacon timestamp, optimize this routine to take fixed time regardless of the actual TSF value.

SD8688 is a WLAN/Bluetooth combo chip and both functions are supported in a single firmware image. FUNC_INIT and FUNC_SHUTDOWN commands are implemented to utilize the multiple function feature. When SD8688 card is inserted, the firmware image should be downloaded only once through either WLAN function (Libertas driver) or Bluetooth function (Bluetooth driver).

Usually, the 16-bit rx length is read from scratch pad registers with two CMD52 transactions: SD8385: IF_SDIO_SCRATCH_OLD (0x80fe/0x80ff) SD8686/SD8688: IF_SDIO_SCRATCH (0x34/0x35) Alternatively, SD8688 firmware offers an enhanced method for driver to read an 8-bit rx length (in units) with a single CMD52: IF_SDIO_RX_UNIT 0x43 is read one time after firmware is ready. IF_SDIO_RX_LEN 0x42 is read every time when rx interrupt is received. Signed-off-by: Bing Zhao <bzhao@marvell.com> Acked-by: Dan Williams <dcbw@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: John W.

The GPSI interface driver does not re-enable the Card Event Interrupt, which causes problems after a card event (for example: link-loss) comes in. This can lead, for example, to the card failing to re-associate. This patch ensures that we re-enable the Card Event Interrupt when we handle card events.

In "mac80211: split out and decrease probe wait time" I tried to reduce the time waiting for a probe response, but failed to take into account the case where we are detecting beacon loss in software -- in that case we still wait the monitoring time rather than the probe wait time.

The requirement for wireless stats to be atomic is now mostly artificial since we hold the rtnl _and_ the dev_base_lock for iterating the device list. Doing that is not required, just the rtnl is sufficient (and the rtnl is required for other reasons outlined in commit "wext: fix get_wireless_stats locking"). This will fix http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=13344 and make things easier for drivers. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes@sipsolutions.net> Signed-off-by: John W.

Currently, we will ask the driver to configure right away when somebody changes the desired BSSID. That's totally strange because then we will configure the driver without even knowing whether the BSS exists. Change this to only configure the BSSID when associated, and configure a zero BSSID when not associated. As a side effect, this fixes an issue with the iwlwifi driver which doesn't implement sta_notify properly and uses the BSSID instead and gets very confused if the BSSID is cleared before we disassociate, which results in the warning Marcel posted [1] and iwlwifi bug 1995 [2].

When the genIE hasn't changed there's no reason to kick the state machine since it won't be able to do anything new -- doing this decreases the useless work we do for reassociating because if we do kick the state machine it will try to find a usable BSS but there might not be one because wpa_supplicant will only change the BSSID a little later. In a sense this is a workaround for userspace behaviour, but on the other hand userspace cannot really keep track of what the kernel currently has for genIE since any process could have changed that while wpa_supplicant wasn't looking.

If the AP includes our AID in the TIM IE, we need to process the Beacon frame as far as PS is concerned (send PS-Poll or nullfunc data with PM=0). The previous code skipped this in cases where the CRC value did not change and it would not change if the AP continues including our AID in the TIM.. There is no need to count the crc32 value for directed_tim with this change, so we can remove that part. In order not to change the order of operations (i.e., update WMM parameters prior to sending PS-Poll), the CRC match is checked twice as only after the PS processing step, the rest of the function is skipped if nothing changed in the Beacon.

mac80211 does not set PM field for normal data frames, so we need to update that based on the current PS mode when using PS-Poll (timeout=0) power save mode. This allows the AP to remain in sync with our PS state. However, there is still a potential race condition between PS state changes when multiple TX queues are used and nullfunc and PS-Poll frames use different queue. That corner case may need to be handled separately by changing which queue is used either in ath9k or mac80211. Signed-off-by: Jouni Malinen <jouni.malinen@atheros.com> Signed-off-by: John W.
