mac80211 adds stations in HT IBSS as soon as a frame comes by, even if the HT capabilities are not known yet (they are often received later, e.g. in beacons). So far, ampdu factor/density are only calculated when the station is initially added. This patch changes this to update ampdu factor/density settings when starting a blockack session. Using this patch, we had performance boosts from 60 to 150 MBit/s between two 2x2 Atheros devices in 5 GHz HT IBSS mode.

The code is fine in both cases as-is, but we can write it slightly differently to fix smatch/sparse complaints: * compare the skb pointer (which we use as a cookie) by casting the skb to unsigned long rather than the cookie to a pointer (fixes "different address spaces") * when transmitting, data->channel must be assigned, don't check it (fixes "dereferenced before check") Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>

There are a few things that make the logging and debugging in mac80211 less useful than it should be right now: * a lot of messages should be pr_info, not pr_debug * wholesale use of pr_debug makes it require *both* Kconfig and dynamic configuration * there are still a lot of ifdefs * the style is very inconsistent, sometimes the sdata->name is printed in front Clean up everything, introducing new macros and separating out the station MLME debugging into a new Kconfig symbol.

In the function brcms_c_regd_init() the channels are validated against the device capabilities. This is done for both 2.4G and 5G band, but there are devices that are 2.4G only, ie. BCM4313. For that device this leads to a NULL dereference. This patch adds a check in brcms_c_regd_init() to fix this.

This is a flaw in recently implemented logic to handle Tx traffic and scan operation simultaneously. We missed to wakeup main thread to handle Tx traffic if scan is delayed/aborted. For some cards (SD8797, for example), firmware will send SLEEP event if there is no activity for 50msec. While handling the SLEEP event, main thread will be woken up and Tx packet gets sent hence. In worst case Tx traffic will be delayed for 50msec. For other cards, such as USB8797, firmware won't send SLEEP event. So, Tx traffic gets stuck if no other event triggers the wakeup of main thread. This patch fixes above issues. Signed-off-by: Amitkumar Karwar <akarwar@marvell.com> Signed-off-by: Bing Zhao <bzhao@marvell.com> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>

Introduce a default set of HT capabilities that are set according to the number of antennas on the board. Move the HT setting code down to allow the number of antennas to be set (and optionally overridden) before it. Remove the "mimo" HT option, since the default mode now enables MIMO is possible.

FW uses a few memory blocks as a buffer to accumulate FW logs before transmitting them to the host over SDIO. When FW WatchDog recovery occurs, the last FW traces are still pending in the buffer. Driver is to read these FW traces whether log mode is continuous or on demand. FW memory blocks allocated for the log buffer are handled as a link list: the first 4 bytes in each memory block contain FW address to the next block. The end of list condition depends on FW log mode: - on demand: the list is cyclic, the next address is equal to the first address - continuous: the address is equal to 0x2000000 Log data resides inside FW memory block with offset depending on logger mode: - on demand: 4 bytes (address of the next memory block) - continuous: 4 bytes and Rx Descriptor structure size Described FW logger API is backward compatible with previous FW versions.

The get survey op expects the low level driver to report the noise level for a a given channel. The noise calculated in wlcore is (rssi-snr/2), but since the snr reported by the FW is a derivative from the rssi this calculation is useless, and should not be reported to the user space. Reporting incorrect noise, results in the wpa_supplicant miscalculating the roaming candidate priority, thus causing a situation where an AP with a lower rssi level would be chosen over a better AP.

Hold a value for sta_sleep_auth that is amenable to change by debugfs. When detecting a legal value in this variable on interface init, use it as an override value for sleep_auth. This makes debugging more intuitive using the debugfs value. Increment the conf version since we added an element to the conf structure. Note: An AP going up will always set sleep_auth to PSM_CAM.

For FW debugging purposes, we may need to change the sleep mode (aka. sleep_auth) by hand, and set it to the mode we want. To allow this, a debugfs entry is added. Now we store the sleep_auth value that has been set and use that instead of the quirk to decide whether we should enter ELP or not.
