This patch removes a large chunk of code dealing with rate management within the driver and simplifying things by removing the hacky method of calculating HT changes. A subsequent patch would fix this by just using BSS_CHANGED_HT from mac80211. Signed-off-by: Sujith <Sujith.Manoharan@atheros.com> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>

The snprintf() function returns the number of bytes that *would* have been written (not counting the NULL terminator) and that can potentally be more than the size of the buffer. In this patch if there were one liners where string clearly fits into the buffer, then I changed snprintf to sprintf(). It's confusing to use the return value of snprintf() as a limitter without verifying that it's smaller than size. This is what initially caught my attention here. If we use the return value of sprintf() instead future code auditors will assume we've verified that it fits already. Also I did find some places where it made sense to use the return value after we've verified that it is smaller than the buffer size. Finally the read_file_rcstat() function added an explicit NULL terminator before calling snprintf(). That's unnecessary because snprintf() will add the null terminator automatically.

In suspend() host sleep is activated using already configured host sleep parameters through wol command, and in resume() host sleep is cancelled. Earlier priv->fw_ready flag used to reset and set in suspend and resume handler respectively. Since after suspend only host goes into sleep state and firmware is always ready, those changes in flag state are removed. Signed-off-by: Amitkumar Karwar <akarwar@marvell.com> Signed-off-by: John W.

This patch adds support for NVS files with 5GHz band parameters. The change is done in a backward compatible manner - if 11a is not enabled in the driver, the driver will allow also old NVS files to be loaded.

This enables the baseband watchdog events for the AR9003 family on ath9k. Upon an a baseband watchdog interrupt we reset the hardware, this should address corner case conditions where normal operation can stall. Enable ATH_DBG_RESET to be able to review details of the bb watchdog interrupt once it happens. If you're curious how often this happens just grep the debugfs interrupt file.

This bug was introduced by the following commit Author: Vasanthakumar Thiagarajan <vasanth@atheros.com> Date: Thu Apr 15 17:38:46 2010 -0400 ath9k: Remove ATH9K_TX_SW_ABORTED and introduce a bool for this purpose Wrong buffer is checked for bf_tx_aborted field in ath_tx_num_badfrms(), this may result in a rate scaling with wrong feedback (number of unacked frames in this case). It is the last one in the chain of buffers for an aggregate frame that should be checked. Also it misses the initialization of this field in the buffer, this may lead to a situation where we stop the sw retransmission of failed subframes associated to this buffer.

With VEOL, Beacon transmission in ad-hoc does not currently work. I believe for larger ad-hoc networks, VEOL is too unreliable, as it can get beacon transmissions stuck during synchronization.
