2011-05-02Revert "wl12xx: support FW TX inactivity triggers"Luciano Coelho
This reverts commit 47684808fd89d6809c0886e06f8ac324252499d8. Conflicts: drivers/net/wireless/wl12xx/conf.h drivers/net/wireless/wl12xx/main.c
2011-05-02wl12xx: export driver state to debugfsArik Nemtsov
By reading the "driver_state" debugfs value we get all the important state information from the wl12xx driver. This helps testing and debugging, particularly in situations where the driver seems "stuck". Signed-off-by: Arik Nemtsov <arik@wizery.com> Signed-off-by: Luciano Coelho <coelho@ti.com>
2011-05-02wl12xx: fix race condition during recovery in AP modeArik Nemtsov
When operating as AP, the TX queues are not stopped when we start recovery. mac80211 is notified only after the fact. When there is pending TX, it will be queued even after the FW is down. This leads to situations where the TX queues are stopped (because of the TX-watermark mechanism), and are never woken up when we return from recovery. Fix this by explicitly stopping the TX queues when before initiating recovery. Signed-off-by: Arik Nemtsov <arik@wizery.com> Signed-off-by: Luciano Coelho <coelho@ti.com>

2011-05-02wl12xx: AP-mode - overhaul rate policy configurationArik Nemtsov
Use the minimal rate configured in the basic rates set as the AP broadcast and multicast rate. The minimal rate is used to ensure weak links can still communicate. When the basic rates contains at least one OFDM rate, configure all unicast TX rates to OFDM only. Unify rate configuration on initialization and on change notification into a single function.

2011-05-02wl12xx: schedule recovery on command timeoutArik Nemtsov
We use a long timeout (2 seconds) when sending commands to the FW. When a command times out, it means the FW is stuck, and we should commence recovery.

2011-05-02wl12xx: Enable dynamic memory for 127xIdo Yariv
The FW can dynamically manage its internal TX & RX memory pools, moving blocks from one pool to another when necessary. This can significantly improve performance. Currently this feature is enabled only for 128x. Enable dynamic memory for 127x as well. Other parameters in the memory configuration structure may need to be fine tuned, as the optimal values for these may change once dynamic memory is enabled.

2011-05-02wl12xx: Restart TX when TX descriptors are availableIdo Yariv
The driver stops sending TX packets when either there aren't enough memory blocks, or it runs out of TX descriptors. The driver continues to send packets to the FW only when more memory blocks are available. The FW might free TX descriptors without freeing the corresponding memory blocks, especially when dynamic memory is enabled. In cases where memory blocks are not freed at all, the driver will keep waiting for more memory blocks indefinitely. Fix this by clearing the WL1271_FLAG_FW_TX_BUSY flag when there are available TX descriptors. Signed-off-by: Ido Yariv <ido@wizery.com> Signed-off-by: Luciano Coelho <coelho@ti.com>
2011-05-02wl12xx: Modify memory configuration for 128x/APIdo Yariv
The 128x/AP firmware does not yet support dynamic memory. Temporarily, the memory configuration for the 127x was used both for 127x/AP as well as 128x/AP. Since the two chips don't have the same number of memory blocks, TP was significantly degraded. This hasn't been fine tuned yet, but using the base 128x numbers (without dynamic memory) seems to yield much better results (around 30% more). Additional fine tuning will be required in the future.

2011-05-02wl12xx: configure rates when working in ibss modeEliad Peller

2011-05-02wl12xx: avoid redundant join on interface reconfigurationEliad Peller
ieee80211_reconfig() sets most of the "changed" flags regardless of the actual change (e.g. BSS_CHANGED_ASSOC will be set even if the interface is still not associated). in this case the driver will issue some unneeded commands. Since the driver relies solely on the BSS_CHANGED_ASSOC flag, without checking if there was an actual change, it will end up issuing unjoin() and dummy_join() commands, although it was never associated and should just remain idle. Avoid it by checking the actual state change, in addition to the "changed" flag. (there seem to be more redundant configuration commands being issued, but they shouldn't harm) Signed-off-by: Eliad Peller <eliad@wizery.com> Signed-off-by: Luciano Coelho <coelho@ti.com>

2011-04-28wl12xx: support FW TX inactivity triggersArik Nemtsov
In AP mode we register for the MAX_TX_RETRY and INACTIVE_STA events. Both are reported to the upper layers as a TX failure in the offending stations. In STA mode we register only for the MAX_TX_RETRY event. A TX failure is interpreted as a loss of connection. Support for IEEE80211_HW_REPORTS_TX_ACK_STATUS has been removed to avoid the inherent race condition of a mac80211 TX failure counter in addition to the FW counter.

2011-04-19wl12xx: Handle platforms without level trigger interruptsIdo Yariv
Some platforms are incapable of triggering on level interrupts. Add a platform quirks member in the platform data structure, as well as an edge interrupt quirk which can be set on such platforms. When the interrupt is requested with IRQF_TRIGGER_RISING, IRQF_ONESHOT cannot be used, as we might miss interrupts that occur after the FW status is cleared and before the threaded interrupt handler exits. Moreover, when IRQF_ONESHOT is not set, iterating more than once in the threaded interrupt handler introduces a few race conditions between this handler and the hardirq handler. Currently this is worked around by limiting the loop to one iteration only. This workaround has an impact on performance. To remove to this restriction, the race conditions will need to be addressed.

2011-04-19wl12xx: Simplify TX blocks accountingIdo Yariv
The total number of TX memory blocks may change when the dynamic memory option is enabled. The current implementation only tracks the available memory blocks, which over-complicates TX blocks accounting. By tracking the number of allocated blocks, calculation of the number of available blocks becomes simpler and cleaner. It simply equals the total number of TX memory blocks minus the allocated ones. Also, remove some unnecessary castings and use union member accesses instead.

2011-04-19wl12xx: Clean up the dummy packet mechanismIdo Yariv
The current implementation allocates a skb each time one is requested by the firmware. Since dummy packets are handled differently than regular packets, the skb needs to be marked. Currently, this is done by setting the pkt_type member to 5. This might not be safe, as we cannot be sure that there won't be any other packets with this pkt_type value. Since the packet does not change from one request to another, we can simply allocate a dummy packet template and always send it. All changes to the skb done during packet preparation must be reverted, so the same skb can be reused. The dummy packets are not transmitted, therefore there's no need to set the BSSID or our own MAC address. In addition, the header portion of the packet was zeroed by mistake, so fix that as well.

Move the alignment code into a function instead of duplicating it in multiple places. 3.

2011-04-19wl12xx: fix "JOIN while associated" commentaryOhad Ben-Cohen
Issuing multiple JOIN commands to the wl12xx's firmware, while we're associated, might have undesired implications, so the driver prints a message when that happens, and warn developers who check out the source. Update the commentary in order to consider the one valid scenario where this can happen: roaming. Cautiously keep the message for now, until we either gain confidence there are no unintentional JOIN-while-associated events, or until we move to the new multi-role fw who solves this multiple-join issue for good.

2011-04-19wl12xx: fix roamingOhad Ben-Cohen
The wl12xx device normally drops all frames coming from BSSID it is not joined with. This behavior is configured today by the wl12xx driver in response to a handful of ieee80211_bss_change and ieee80211_conf_changed notification flags, such as BSS_CHANGED_ASSOC, BSS_CHANGED_BSSID, IEEE80211_CONF_CHANGE_IDLE, etc.. This breaks when we roam to a new BSSID, where authentication frames are sent before any BSS_CHANGED/CONF_CHANGED flags are received. When this happens the hardware silently drops the authentication responses, and the roaming fails. Ideally this aggressive filtering behavior of the device should be disabled upon a notification from mac80211. Such notification will take place after multi-channel support will be added: mac80211 will likely send a remain-on-channel notification to drivers when entering sensitive states (like authentication), otherwise the firmware might jump to different channels (to serve a different role). Until those notifications materialize, disable the hw BSSID filter when authentication requests are sent, so roaming would work.

2011-04-19wl12xx: rearrange some ELP wake_up/sleep callsEliad Peller
ELP (Extremely/Enhanced Low Power, or something like that ;)) refers to the powerstate of the 12xx chip, in which very low power is consumed, and no commands (from the host) can be issued until the chip is woken up. Wakeup/sleep commands must be protected by a wl->mutex, so it's generally a good idea to call wakeup/sleep along with the mutex lock/unlock (where needed). However, in some places the wl12xx driver calls wakeup/sleep in some "inner" functions. This result in some "nested" wakeup/sleep calls which might end up letting the chip go to sleep prematurely (e.g. during event handling). Fix it by rearranging the elp calls to come along with mutex_lock/unlock.

2011-04-19wl12xx: Clamp byte mode transfers for 128x chipsArik Nemtsov
On wl128x based devices, when TX packets are aggregated, each packet size must be aligned to the SDIO block size, and sent using block mode transfers. The block size is set to 256 bytes, which is less than the maximum possible byte transfer. Thus, if two small packets (< 256 bytes) are aggregated, the aggregation buffer size would be 512, and will be sent using byte mode transfers. This can have undesired side effects. Fix this by setting the MMC_QUIRK_BLKSZ_FOR_BYTE_MODE mmc card quirk. For 127x chips this has no effect, as the block size is set to 512 bytes.
