The fail_avg value is used to compute the mesh metric, and was only being set by the pid rate control module. This fixes the mesh path selection mechanism for cards that use mistrel for rate control. Signed-off-by:

The 11s task group recently changed the frame mesh multicast/broadcast frame format to use 3-address. This was done to avoid interactions with widely deployed lazy-WDS access points. This patch changes the format of group addressed frames, both mesh-originated and proxied, to use the data format defined in draft D2.08 and forward. The address fields used for group addressed frames is: In 802.11 header ToDS:0 FromDS:1 addr1: DA (broadcast/multicast address) addr2: TA addr3: Mesh SA In address extension header: addr4: SA (only present if frame was proxied) Note that this change breaks backward compatibility with earlier mesh stack versions.

On locally originated traffic, we refresh active paths after a timeout. The decision to do this was using the wrong sign and therefore the refresh timer was triggered for every frame. Signed-off-by:

There's no need to mask the variable with 0xFFF0 since we ever only use it as a u16 and the lowest four bits can't ever be non-zero. The compiler cannot infer the latter, and therefore has to emit code to do the masking. Signed-off-by:

When encryption is used, the number of bytes sent to the peer increases by the IV and ICV. This is accounted if software encryption is used, but not if the devices does hardware encryption. To make the numbers comparable, never account for that overhead. Signed-off-by:

* Get rid of calibration timer, instead use a software interrupt to schedule the calibration tasklet. a) We don't need a timer for this, there is no need for accuracy even with round_jiffies i think this is a waste of resources. Also we don't need to run calibration if we are idle (no interrupts). b) When we add ANI support we 'll just extend the poll function and calibration tasklet and handle all periodic phy calibration on one place (much cleaner). c) Having calibration on a tasklet is better since during calibration we can't transmit or receive (antennas are detached to measure noise floor), previously calibration could run in parallel with tx/rx and interfere (packet loss). v2: kill tasklet on stop_hw, stop/wake queues v3: use time_is_before_eq_jiffies to compare timestamp with current time Signed-off-by:Nick Kossifidis <mickflemm@gmail.com> Signed-off-by:

When beacon is being updated to refresh TIM (AP mode), beacon frames are de-synchronizing (i.e. two neighbor beacon frames - before and after update - are being transmitted with a wrong time interval). That is because xxx_write_beacon should disable beacon generation only while beacon data are being uploaded to the device, but it should not disable the beacon clock. Signed-off-by:

The patch "Implement set_tim callback for all drivers" can cause kernel oops in rt73usb_write_beacon. The oops is caused by one of the following race conditions: * In case of two near calls to set_tim: rt2x00lib_beacondone_iter is cleaning the beacon skb, whereas rt73usb_write_beacon is still using it. * In case of two near updates of beacon: first as the result of set_tim and second as the result of a call from an application (e.g. hostapd). This patch fixes the race condition by rearranging the update logic and guarding rt2x00_intf->beacon->skb with a mutex. Signed-off-by:

Antanna quality statistics is not handled correctly, which leads to software diversity being shutdown completly. The main problem is that during antenna diversity statistics can be reset resulting in loosing the signal strength just before evaluation. rssi history is not updated correctly leading to incorrect comparison material for basing antenna switching on.

Elsewhere, the tqi_type field is compared to constants having a name beginning with AR5K_TX_QUEUE, rather than AR5K_TX_QUEUE_ID. I have thus converted AR5K_TX_QUEUE_ID_CAB to AR5K_TX_QUEUE_CAB. This does, however, change the value, so perhaps something else was wanted. Signed-off-by:

"cfg80211: validate channel settings across interfaces" contained a locking bug -- in the managed-mode SIWFREQ call it would end up running into a lock recursion. This fixes it by not checking that particular interface for a channel that it needs to stay on, which is as it should be as that's the interface we're setting the channel for. Reported-by:

Depending on required latency requested by pm_qos (via mac80211) we can automatically adjust the sleep state. Also, mac80211 has a user-visible dynamic sleep feature where we are supposed to stay awake after sending/receiving frames to better receive response frames to our packets, this can be integrated into the sleep command. Currently, and this patch doesn't change that yet, we default to using sleep level 1 if PS is enabled. With a module parameter to iwlcore, automatic adjustment to changing network latency requirements can be enabled -- this isn't yet the default due to requiring more testing. The goal is to enable automatic adjustment and then go into the deepest possible sleep state possible depending on the networking latency requirements. This patch does, however, enable IEEE80211_HW_SUPPORTS_DYNAMIC_PS to avoid the double-timer (one in software and one in the device) when transmitting -- the exact timeout may be ignored but that is not of big concern. Note also that we keep the hard-coded power indices around for thermal throttling -- the specification of that calls for using the specified power levels. Those can also be selected in debugfs to allow easier testing of such parameters. Signed-off-by:

Some of the thermal throttle data structures and code are really very intermingled with the sleep (power) control code. They really do belong together in a way since the thermal throttle code uses powersaving to achieve its goal, but it's making it hard to work on the powersave code. Split this up to make that easier. I've also changed the antenna defines to an enum and used the same enum for RX and TX. Signed-off-by:

For legacy thermal throttling, set the new Thermal Throttling state and change power index when thermal throttling manager detects temperature changed. The current implementation sets the state to the previous Thermal Throttling state, which causes system to enter wrong power index. The worse case, it will trying to set the lower power index when device reach critical temperature, it will cuase issue for both system and the device. Signed-off-by:

commit "iwlwifi: uCode Alive notification with timeout" introduced a more reliable mechanism for ucode loading. Unfortunately we hit a problem with it frequently enough to make a 4965 unusable. The problem can be seen in debug log below. What this code attempts is to set runtime ucode up to load, start a timer to wait for the alive response from runtime ucode, and if it times out it tries again. As can be seen below we receive the alive response and wake the waiting task _before_ the tasks starts waiting. The task thus times out as the alive response is not received while it is waiting for it and it restarts the device. This starts the cycle all over again.
