NF value may be incorrect when we read it just after the chip has gone through a full sleep mode. Reading incorrect NF values affects RX throughput. Signed-off-by: Vasanthakumar Thiagarajan <vasanth@atheros.com> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>

The current verison of b43 uses "b43_phyop_switch_analog_generic" for A, G and LP phys. According to the spec, this is the wrong behaviour for the LP PHY (see: http://bcm-v4.sipsolutions.net/802.11/PHY/Anacore ) While no problems on the x86 plattform where seen, this leads to a crash on the BCM5354 SoC (MIPS 32 LE plattform). This patch implements the analog switch for LP PHYs according to the specs. It fixes the crash signed-off-by: Thomas Ilnseher <illth@gmx.de> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>

There's a check saying /* we're good if we have both BSSID and channel */ if (wdev->conn->params.bssid && wdev->conn->params.channel) { but that isn't true -- we need the BSS struct. This leads to errors such as Trying to associate with 00:1b:53:11:dc:40 (SSID='TEST' freq=2412 MHz) ioctl[SIOCSIWFREQ]: No such file or directory ioctl[SIOCSIWESSID]: No such file or directory Association request to the driver failed Associated with 00:1b:53:11:dc:40 in wpa_supplicant, as reported by Holger. Instead, we really need to have the BSS struct, and if we don't, then we need to initiate a scan for it. But we may already have the BSS struct here, so hang on to it if we do and scan if we don't.

There's a bug in 4965 powersave that appears to be related to the way it keeps track of its data during sleep, but we haven't found it yet. Due to that, using powersave may spontaneously cause the device to SYSASSERT when transitioning from sleep to wake. Therefore, disable powersave for 4965, until (if ever, unfortunately) we can identify and fix the problem. Cf. http://bugzilla.intellinuxwireless.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1982 which was closed, but now has re-appeared with IDLE mode, which probably means we never really fixed it.

Reinette Chatre authored
RX handling maintains a few lists that keep track of the RX buffers. Buffers move from one list to the other as they are used, replenished, and again made available for usage. In one such instance, when a buffer is used it enters the "rx_used" list. When buffers are replenished an skb is attached to the buffer and it is moved to the "rx_free" list. The problem here is that the buffer is first removed from the "rx_used" list _before_ the skb is allocated. Thus, if the skb allocation fails this buffer remains removed from the "rx_used" list and is thus lost for future usage. Fix this by first allocating the skb before trying to attach it to a list. We add an additional check to not do this unnecessarily. Reported-by: Rick Farrington <rickdic@hotmail.com> Signed-off-by: Reinette Chatre <reinette.chatre@intel.com> Signed-off-by: John W.

This fixes a resume failure where a signal is pending on resume so the firmware upload fails. This removes the interruptible sleep, because we don't really need it. In the worst case (with broken firmware) the sleep loop will take 1 second. In the common case (working firmware), it will only take a few milliseconds. So we don't really need to be interruptible.

WEXT's "struct iw_freq" can also be used to handle a channel. This patch now uses cfg80211_wext_freq() instead of hand-converting the frequency.

As the hostap driver was converted to use net_device_ops, a mistake was made in hostap_main.c (commit 5ae4efbc). Originally, the tx_queue_len was set to 0 for every other interface than HOSTAP_INTERFACE_MASTER, but the new fragment of code sets tx_queue_len to 0 only for HOSTAP_INTERFACE_MASTER. The opposite of the previous behavior makes the driver to drop all packets in AP mode. Change the way 0 is assigned to tx_queue_len according to the original logic.
