Wireless HW without any dedicated queues for aggregation do not need the ampdu_queues mechanism present right now in mac80211. Since mac80211 is still incomplete wrt TX MQ changes, do not allow aggregation sessions for drivers that set ampdu_queues. This is only an interim hack until Intel fixes the requeue issue.

Eliminate the vif.type check in ieee80211_rx_h_action. This check is unnecessary (these action frames can be handled by all interface types) and currently prevents, for example, AP interfaces from handling BACK action frames such as ADDBA and DELBA requests.

We were also changing tx power even when we were not asked to, this enforces the change only when we are asked nicely. When not asked we simply try to use the max power, we don't tx power at all for rate control. Signed-off-by: Luis R. Rodriguez <lrodriguez@atheros.com> Signed-off-by: John W.

sc_txintrperiod is currently set to 0 and never updated. We won't be using this, if anything we will consider using TX interrupt mitigation but that is different and not yet tested. So remove sc_txintrperiod and the pointless spin_lock_bh() on tx prepare. Signed-off-by: Luis R. Rodriguez <lrodriguez@atheros.com> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>

We do not know what max power to allow until a device is targeting a channel, therefore only allow changing tx power if a channel is defined. Also make use of the channel's max power setting as defined by regulatory rules before allowing the user to use the requested power setting. If the user asked us to figure it out we use the max allowed by regulatory. Signed-off-by: Luis R. Rodriguez <lrodriguez@atheros.com> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>

We never clearly defined the semantics of the sta_notify callback and it was originally posted for iwlwifi which still doesn't use it at all. With the recent HT rework ath9k started relying on it, but I made a mistake there in that I made ath9k assume the HT information has already been filled in at sta_notify time. This isn't a hard thing to do, so do it. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes@sipsolutions.net> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>

This mutex is wrong, we use cfg80211_drv_mutex (which should possibly be renamed to just cfg80211_mutex) everywhere except in one place, fix that and get rid of the extra mutex.

The two new commands are NL80211_CMD_GET_MESH_PARAMS and NL80211_CMD_SET_MESH_PARAMS. There is a new attribute enum, NL80211_ATTR_MESH_PARAMS, which enumerates the various mesh configuration parameters. Moved struct mesh_config from mac80211/ieee80211_i.h to net/cfg80211.h. nl80211_get_mesh_params and nl80211_set_mesh_params unpack the netlink messages and ask the driver to get or set the configuration. This is done via two new function stubs, get_mesh_params and set_mesh_params, in struct cfg80211_ops.

I noticed that when for some reason [1] the probe or auth times out, wpa_supplicant doesn't realise this and only tries the next AP when it runs into its own timeout, which is ten seconds, and that's quite long. Fix this by making mac80211 notify userspace that it didn't associate. [1] my wrt350n in mixed B/G/HT mode often runs into this, maybe it's because one of the antennas is broken off and for whatever reason it decides to use that antenna to transmit the response frames (auth, probe); I do see beacons fine so it's not totally broken. Works fine in pure-G mode. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes@sipsolutions.net> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>

"Clearing" the rate control algorithm is pointless, none of the algorithms actually uses this operation and it's not even invoked properly for all channel switching.

NLA_NESTED attributes cannot be empty, but we want to be able to specify "no flags" (empty attribute) vs. "no change" (no attribute). Therefore, remove the NLA_NESTED policy so it can work as an empty attribute. I guess I should have used a u32 for these flags instead, but we're stuck with it now.

We have to be careful if multiple "control frames" are passed in a very short intervals to the device's firmware. As p54_assign_address always put them into same memory location. To guarantee that this won't happen anymore, we have to treat control frames like normal data frames in the devices own memory management.

This patch: 1. fixes command DMA unmapping, this might be visible only on platforms where DMA unmapping is no noop such as PPC64 (not tested) 2. attaches correctly high memory part of the host command buffer 3. changes structure of TFD TB instead of describing transmit buffer (TB) tuple it describes single TB and makes code more readable on price of one unaligned access 4. eliminates using of IWL_GET/SET_BITs for TFD handling 5. renames TFD structures to mach the HW spec 6. reduces iwl_tx_info size by reserving first TB to the host command This patch should not have any visible effect on x86 32 This patch is rework of iwlwifi: fix DMA code and bugs from Johannes Berg <johannes@sipsolutions.net> Signed-off-by: Tomas Winkler <tomas.winkler@intel.com> Cc: Johannes Berg <johannes@sipsolutions.net> Reviewed-by: Zhu Yi <yi.zhu@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Reinette Chatre <reinette.chatre@intel.com> Signed-off-by: John W.
