2010-03-30setup correct int pipe type in ar9170_usb_exec_cmdValentin Longchamp
An int urb is constructed but we fill it in with a bulk pipe type. Commit f661c6f8c67bd55e93348f160d590ff9edf08904 implemented a pipe type check when CONFIG_USB_DEBUG is enabled. The check failed for all the ar9170 usb transfers and the driver could not configure the wifi dongle. This went unnoticed until now because most people don't have CONFIG_USB_DEBUG enabled.

2010-03-30include cleanup: Update gfp.h and slab.h includes to prepare for breaking ↵Tejun Heo
implicit slab.h inclusion from percpu.h percpu.h is included by sched.h and module.h and thus ends up being included when building most .c files. percpu.h includes slab.h which in turn includes gfp.h making everything defined by the two files universally available and complicating inclusion dependencies. percpu.h -> slab.h dependency is about to be removed. Prepare for this change by updating users of gfp and slab facilities include those headers directly instead of assuming availability. As this conversion needs to touch large number of source files, the following script is used as the basis of conversion. http://userweb.kernel.org/~tj/misc/slabh-sweep.py The script does the followings. * Scan files for gfp and slab usages and update includes such that only the necessary includes are there. ie. if only gfp is used, gfp.h, if slab is used, slab.h. * When the script inserts a new include, it looks at the include blocks and try to put the new include such that its order conforms to its surrounding. It's put in the include block which contains core kernel includes, in the same order that the rest are ordered - alphabetical, Christmas tree, rev-Xmas-tree or at the end if there doesn't seem to be any matching order. * If the script can't find a place to put a new include (mostly because the file doesn't have fitting include block), it prints out an error message indicating which .h file needs to be added to the file. The conversion was done in the following steps. 1. The initial automatic conversion of all .c files updated slightly over 4000 files, deleting around 700 includes and adding ~480 gfp.h and ~3000 slab.h inclusions. The script emitted errors for ~400 files. 2. Each error was manually checked. Some didn't need the inclusion, some needed manual addition while adding it to implementation .h or embedding .c file was more appropriate for others. This step added inclusions to around 150 files. 3. The script was run again and the output was compared to the edits from #2 to make sure no file was left behind. 4. Several build tests were done and a couple of problems were fixed. e.g. lib/decompress_*.c used malloc/free() wrappers around slab APIs requiring slab.h to be added manually. 5. The script was run on all .h files but without automatically editing them as sprinkling gfp.h and slab.h inclusions around .h files could easily lead to inclusion dependency hell. Most gfp.h inclusion directives were ignored as stuff from gfp.h was usually wildly available and often used in preprocessor macros. Each slab.h inclusion directive was examined and added manually as necessary. 6. percpu.h was updated not to include slab.h. 7. Build test were done on the following configurations and failures were fixed. CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL was turned off for all tests (as my distributed build env didn't work with gcov compiles) and a few more options had to be turned off depending on archs to make things build (like ipr on powerpc/64 which failed due to missing writeq). * x86 and x86_64 UP and SMP allmodconfig and a custom test config. * powerpc and powerpc64 SMP allmodconfig * sparc and sparc64 SMP allmodconfig * ia64 SMP allmodconfig * s390 SMP allmodconfig * alpha SMP allmodconfig * um on x86_64 SMP allmodconfig 8. percpu.h modifications were reverted so that it could be applied as a separate patch and serve as bisection point. Given the fact that I had only a couple of failures from tests on step 6, I'm fairly confident about the coverage of this conversion patch. If there is a breakage, it's likely to be something in one of the arch headers which should be easily discoverable easily on most builds of the specific arch.

2010-03-16ath9k: fix BUG_ON triggered by PAE framesFelix Fietkau
When I initially stumbled upon sequence number problems with PAE frames in ath9k, I submitted a patch to remove all special cases for PAE frames and let them go through the normal transmit path. Out of concern about crypto incompatibility issues, this change was merged instead: commit 6c8afef551fef87a3bf24f8a74c69a7f2f72fc82 Author: Sujith <Sujith.Manoharan@atheros.com> Date: Tue Feb 9 10:07:00 2010 +0530 ath9k: Fix sequence numbers for PAE frames After a lot of testing, I'm able to reliably trigger a driver crash on rekeying with current versions with this change in place. It seems that the driver does not support sending out regular MPDUs with the same TID while an A-MPDU session is active. This leads to duplicate entries in the TID Tx buffer, which hits the following BUG_ON in ath_tx_addto_baw(): index = ATH_BA_INDEX(tid->seq_start, bf->bf_seqno); cindex = (tid->baw_head + index) & (ATH_TID_MAX_BUFS - 1); BUG_ON(tid->tx_buf[cindex] != NULL); I believe until we actually have a reproducible case of an incompatibility with another AP using no PAE special cases, we should simply get rid of this mess. This patch completely fixes my crash issues in STA mode and makes it stay connected without throughput drops or connectivity issues even when the AP is configured to a very short group rekey interval.

2010-03-10ath5k: read eeprom IQ calibration values correctly for G modeBruno Randolf
we read the IQ correction values (i_cal and q_cal) for G mode from a wrong location (the same shifts as for A mode is applied which is incorrect). use correct locations, matching the docs and HAL sources. also we should write IQ correction only when we have that information in the EEPROM, starting from version 4. also write it in the same way as we do in the periodic recalibration (enable last), just to be sure.

2010-03-10ath5k: fix I/Q calibration (for real)Bruno Randolf
I/Q calibration was completely broken, resulting in a high number of CRC errors on received packets. before i could see around 10% to 20% CRC errors, with this patch they are between 0% and 3%. 1.) the removal of the mask in commit "ath5k: Fix I/Q calibration (f1cf2dbd0f798b71b1590e7aca6647f2caef1649)" resulted in no mask beeing used when writing the I/Q values into the register. additional errors in the calculation of the values (see 2.) resulted too high numbers, exceeding the masks, so wrong values like 0xfffffffe were written. to be safe we should always use the bitmask when writing parts of a register. 2.) using a (s32) cast for q_coff is a wrong conversion to signed, since we convert to a signed value later by substracting 128. this resulted in too low numbers for Q many times, which were limited to -16 by the boundary check later on. 3.) checked everything against the HAL sources and took over comments and minor optimizations from there. 4.) we can't use ENABLE_BITS when we want to write a number (the number can contain zeros). also always write the correction values first and set ENABLE bit last, like the HAL does.

2010-03-10ath5k: use fixed antenna for tx descriptorsBruno Randolf
when using a fixed antenna we should use the antenna number in all tx descriptors, otherwise the hardware will sometimes send the frame out on the other antenna. it seems like the hardware does not always respect the default antenna and diversity settings (esp. AR5K_STA_ID1_DEFAULT_ANTENNA). also i would like to note that antenna diversity does not always work correctly on 5414 (at least) when only one antenna is connected: for example all frames might be received on antenna A but still the HW tries to send on antenna B some times, causing packet loss. this is both verified with the antenna statistics output of the previous patch and a spectrum analyzer.

2010-03-03mac80211: Fix HT rate control configurationSujith
Handling HT configuration changes involved setting the channel with the new HT parameters and then issuing a rate_update() notification to the driver. This behavior changed after the off-channel changes. Now, the channel is not updated with the new HT params in enable_ht() - instead, it is now done when the scan work terminates. This results in the driver depending on stale information, defaulting to non-HT mode always. Fix this by passing the new channel type to the driver.

2010-02-19ath9k: fix beacon timer restart after a card resetFelix Fietkau
In AP mode, ath_beacon_config_ap only restarts the timer if a TSF restart is requested. Apparently this was added, because this function unconditionally sets the flag for TSF reset. The problem with this is, that ath9k_hw_reset() clobbers the timer registers (specified in the initvals), thus effectively disabling the SWBA interrupt whenever a card reset without TSF reset is issued (happens in a few places in the code). This patch fixes ath_beacon_config_ap to only issue the TSF reset flag when necessary, but reinitialize the timer unconditionally. Tests show, that this is enough to keep the SWBA interrupt going after a call to ath_reset() Signed-off-by: Felix Fietkau <nbd@openwrt.org> Cc: stable@kernel.org Signed-off-by: John W.

2010-02-19ath9k: fix rate control fallback rate selectionFelix Fietkau
When selecting the tx fallback rate, rc.c used a separate variable 'nrix' for storing the next rate index, however it did not use that as reference for further rate index lowering. Because of that, it ended up reusing the same rate for multiple multi-rate retry stages, thus decreasing delivery probability under changing link conditions. This patch removes the separate (unnecessary) variable and fixes fallback the way it was intended to work. This should result in increased throughput and better link stability.

2010-02-12ath9k: add a workaround for ack timeout issuesFelix Fietkau
Adding support for setting the coverage class in some cases broke association and data transfer, as it overwrote the initial ACK timeout value from the initvals with a smaller value. I don't know why the new value works in 5 GHz (matches the initval there), but not in 2.4 GHz (initvals use 64us here), so until the problem is fully understood, the value should be increased again.
