2012-04-12wireless/wl12xx/wl1251: move TI WLAN modules to a common ti subdirectoryLuciano Coelho
Move wl12xx and wl1251 modules into a new drivers/net/wireless/ti directory. Add a TI WLAN Kconfig option and Makefile to support this change. Signed-off-by: Luciano Coelho <coelho@ti.com> Cc: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>
2012-04-10wl12xx: adaptive sched scan dwell timesEyal Shapira
Set the dwell times for sched scan according to the number of probe requests which are going to be transmitted. This should fix the too short dwell time problem which prevented some of the probe requests from being transmitted in cases of high number of SSIDs (10+) to be actively sched scanned. However, in the common case of having up to 1-2 SSIDs that require active scan, the dwell time would be kept to a minimum which should conserve power. This is important as sched scan also runs periodically while the host is suspended and there's great importance to keep power consumption as low as possible.

2012-03-08wl12xx: implement SW Tx watchdogArik Nemtsov
Track freed FW blocks during Tx. If no blocks were freed during a predefined timeout, initiate a HW recovery. This helps in situations when the FW watchdog fails. Don't trigger recovery during activities that can temporarily stop Tx. This includes: - scanning - buffering packets for sleeping stations (AP role) - ROC on any role Signed-off-by: Arik Nemtsov <arik@wizery.com> Signed-off-by: Eliad Peller <eliad@wizery.com> Signed-off-by: Luciano Coelho <coelho@ti.com>
2012-02-15wl12xx: use split scan for normal scanEyal Shapira
Split scan allows the FW to schedule other activities during a scan which may be a long operation. This is achieved by setting a trigger TID to ANY_TID and a scan trigger timeout other than 0. The default one is set to 50ms.

2012-02-15wl12xx: don't fail on AP scanEliad Peller
AP role uses its own role_id for scans, so there's no reason to fail the scan if dev_role_id is invalid. Signed-off-by: Eliad Peller <eliad@wizery.com> Signed-off-by: Luciano Coelho <coelho@ti.com>
2012-02-15wl12xx: declare support for hw scan while idleEliad Peller
By allowing hw scan while idle, we no longer need the redundant ROC/CROC that are done on idle off/on, which helps simplifying the state machine of the driver. This way, we can also allow scanning while there is an ongoing sched scan (otherwise, we won't be able to ROC on idle-off) Signed-off-by: Eliad Peller <eliad@wizery.com> Signed-off-by: Luciano Coelho <coelho@ti.com>
2012-02-15wl12xx: use dev_role_id for scansEliad Peller
Use device role for scans when the sta is not associated. sched_scan is used only when the sta is not associated, and thus should use the dev role (instead of sta role). Signed-off-by: Eliad Peller <eliad@wizery.com> Signed-off-by: Luciano Coelho <coelho@ti.com>
2012-02-15wl12xx: fw api change - add role_id to set_templateEliad Peller
The set_template commands now takes the role_id as parameter. Usually, we'll use the vif's main role_id. However, sometimes we'll want to use wlvif->dev_role_id instead of wlvif->role_id, so pass the wanted role_id as param. Update WL127X_FW_NAME/WL128X_FW_NAME. (This commit starts a series of fw update patches, and changes the start() callback to return an error in order to prevent the use of the driver during the transition. This change will be reverted in the last patch of series) Signed-off-by: Eliad Peller <eliad@wizery.com> Signed-off-by: Luciano Coelho <coelho@ti.com>
2011-12-20wl12xx: mark no sched scan only after FW eventEyal Shapira
stop sched scan isn't an immediate operation and we need to wait for PERIODIC_SCAN_COMPLETE_EVENT_ID after sending a stop before changing internal state and notifying upper layers. Not doing this caused problems when canceling an existing sched scan and immediately requesting to start a new one with a different configuration as the FW was still in the middle of the previous sched scan.

2011-12-20wl12xx: fix sched scan of DFS channelsEyal Shapira
DFS channels weren't scanned properly because min/max_duration weren't set for these channels even though they're required by the FW. The change sets passive_duration and min/max_duration for all channels as the FW uses the correct parameters according to the channel type.

2011-12-08wl12xx: minor fix in sched_scan_ssid_listEyal Shapira

2011-11-08wl12xx: couple role_start_dev with rocEliad Peller
Device role is always started along with ROC. Couple them together by introducing new wl12xx_start_dev and wl12xx_stop_dev functions. By using these functions, we solve a bug that occured during channel switch - we started the dev role on one channel, and ROCed on a different one.

2011-10-11wl12xx: move debugging definitions to a separate fileLuciano Coelho
Separate the debugging macros and other definitions to a new debug.h file. This is be needed because the sdio and spi modules don't need to depend on the wl12xx module anymore, but still need to include wl12xx.h. Currently they do depend on it, because of the debugging global that wl12xx exports. A future patch will remove this dependency. Signed-off-by: Luciano Coelho <coelho@ti.com>
2011-10-11wl12xx: add band field to wlvifEliad Peller
add band field into the per-interface data. mac80211 configures some values (e.g. band, channel) globally, while we configure them per-interface. In order to make it easier to keep track of the configured value for each value while keeping sync with mac80211, save these values both globally and per-vif.

2011-10-07wl12xx: replace wl->mac_addr with vif->addrEliad Peller
The mac address of the interface already exists in vif->addr. Use it instead of wl->mac_addr. It seems that due to some fw bug, we still need to set nvs->mac to the actual mac addresss, otherwise the fw doesn't function well (e.g. can't get dhcp address). Thus, use wl->mac_addr for this purpose, and don't delete it yet. Signed-off-by: Eliad Peller <eliad@wizery.com> Signed-off-by: Luciano Coelho <coelho@ti.com>

2011-09-22wl12xx: fix forced passive scansLuciano Coelho
We were using incorrect max and min dwell times during forced passive scans because we were still using the active scan states to scan (passively) the channels that were not marked as passive. Instead of doing passive scans in active states, we now skip active states and scan for all channels in passive states. Cc: <stable@kernel.org> # 2.6.36+ Signed-off-by: Luciano Coelho <coelho@ti.com>
2011-09-14wl12xx: ignore sched scan match sets without SSIDLuciano Coelho
For now, cfg80211 only support match sets with SSIDs, but in the future more parameters will be added. This patch ignores eventual matches that do not contain SSIDs in preparation for the future. This change also affects the case where broadcast SSIDs are used. Matching a broadcast SSID will match everything, so they can be ignored. Signed-off-by: Luciano Coelho <coelho@ti.com>
2011-09-14wl12xx: add support for sched_scan filtersLuciano Coelho
Implement support for filtering in scheduled scans. With this commit we now use the match sets passed by cfg80211 to filter on SSIDs. Due to the nature of the wl12xx firmware API, we don't allow SSIDs to be sent in the probe requests if they are not going to match any of the filters. Signed-off-by: Luciano Coelho <coelho@ti.com>
2011-09-14wl12xx: check for ROC on scan_completeEliad Peller

2011-09-14wl12xx: don't use WL1271_SCAN_OPT_PRIORITY_HIGH flagEliad Peller
When setting the WL1271_SCAN_OPT_PRIORITY_HIGH flag, the driver requests a scan *now*, and the fw doesn't enter psm before scanning, which in turn might cause packets loss. Signed-off-by: Eliad Peller <eliad@wizery.com> Signed-off-by: Luciano Coelho <coelho@ti.com>
2011-08-25wl12xx: use SCAN_SSID_TYPE_PUBLIC when using the wildcard in sched_scanLuciano Coelho
When we are scanning for the wildcard SSID in a scheduled scan, we should use SCAN_SSID_TYPE_PUBLIC so that we don't filter out the scan results. Signed-off-by: Luciano Coelho <coelho@ti.com>
2011-08-25wl12xx: add support for multiple SSIDs in sched_scanLuciano Coelho
The wl12xx firmwares support multiple SSIDs in a single sched_scan run. This patch implements support for it. We use three different types os sched_scan: FILTER_ANY (ie. not filtering, only wildcard SSID in the probe_reqs); FILTER_LIST (ie. send out probe_reqs with the specified SSIDs and only report if they are found); and FILTER_DISABLED (ie. send out probe_reqs with the specified SSIDs, but report anything found). Since we still don't have proper filter support in nl80211/cfg80211 yet, we cannot use filters when the wildcard SSID is used. Thus, we will not filter anything if the wildcard SSID is specified.

2011-08-22wl12xx: replace dummy_join with ROC/CROC commandsEliad Peller
The ROC command asks the fw stay on the channel of the given hlid. it currently has 2 primary functions: 1. Allow tx/rx from the device role. In order to tx/rx packets while the stations is not associated (e.g. auth req/resp), the device role has to be used, along with ROC on its link. Keep the logic similiar to the one used in dummy_join. However, since we can't scan while we ROC, we add CROC before starting a scan, and ROC again (if needed) on scan complete. 2. Keeping the antenna for a specific link. We ROC until the connection was completed (after EAPOLs exchange) in order to prevent BT coex operations from taking the antenna and failing the connection (after this stage, psm can be used). During association, we ROC on the station role, and then CROC the device role, thus assuring being ROC during all the connection process. Delete the WL1271_FLAG_JOINED flag, and use a roc bitmap to indicate what roles are currently ROCed. Add wl12xx_roc/croc functions in order to wrap the roc/croc commands while taking care of the roc bitmap. The current ROC/CROC state-machine is a bit complicated. In the future we'll probably want to use wpa_supplicant to control the ROC during connection. Signed-off-by: Eliad Peller <eliad@wizery.com> Signed-off-by: Luciano Coelho <coelho@ti.com>

2011-06-27wl12xx: split channel array per band in sched_scanLuciano Coelho

2011-05-31wl12xx: fix oops in sched_scan when forcing a passive scanLuciano Coelho
Fix kernel oops when trying to use passive scheduled scans. The reason was that in passive scans there are no SSIDs, so there was a NULL pointer dereference. To solve the problem, we now check the number of SSIDs provided in the sched_scan request and only access the list if there's one or more (ie. passive scan is not forced). We also force all the channels to be passive by adding the IEEE80211_CHAN_PASSIVE_SCAN flag locally before the checks in the wl1271_scan_get_sched_scan_channels() function.

2011-05-31wl12xx: add separate config value for DFS dwell time on sched scanLuciano Coelho
Use a different value for DFS dwell time when performing a scheduled scan. Previously we were using the same value as for normal passive scans. This adds some flexibility between these two different types of passive scan. For now we use 150 TUs for DFS channel dwell time. This may need to be fine-tuned in the future.

2011-05-31wl12xx: fix DFS channels handling in scheduled scanLuciano Coelho
DFS channels were never getting included in the scheduled scans, because they always contain the passive flag as well and the call was asking for DFS and active channels. Fix this by ignoring the passive flag when collecting DFS channels. Also, move the DFS channels in the channel list before the 5GHz active channels (this was implemented in the FW differently than specified).
