The tid aggregation cleanup is a bit fragile, as it discards failed subframes in some places, and retransmits them in others. This could block the cleanup of an existing aggregation session, if a retransmission for a tid is issued, yet the tid is never scheduled again because of the cleanup state. Fix this by getting rid of as many subframes as possible, as early as possible, and immediately transmitting pending subframes as regular HT frames instead of waiting for the cleanup to complete. Drop all pending subframes while keeping track of the Block ACK window during aggregate tx completion to prevent sending out stale subframes, which could confuse the receiver side.

A new aggregation session start can be issued by mac80211, even when the cleanup of the previous session has not completed yet. Since the data structure for the session is not recreated, this could corrupt the block ack window and lock up the aggregation session. Fix this by delaying the new session until the old one has been cleaned up. Signed-off-by: Felix Fietkau <nbd@openwrt.org> Cc: stable@kernel.org Signed-off-by: John W.

There's no reason to keep pointers to pending tx buffers around, if they're only used to keep track of which frames are still pending. Use a bitfield instead. Signed-off-by: Felix Fietkau <nbd@openwrt.org> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>

The driver has a set of different initvals for 20 MHz vs dynamic HT2040 operation. Because we can't change some of the registers "in-flight", the driver needs to perform a warm reset.

Don't mark the device as completely dead just yet. If all goes to plan and carl9170_reboot succeeds then we can skip the expensive userspace-driven reinitialization anyway. And if it doesn't and carl9170_reboot fails, then carl9170_usb_cancel_urbs will do the necessary steps. Signed-off-by: Christian Lamparter <chunkeey@googlemail.com> Signed-off-by: John W.

Ever since carl9170 gained support to read the noisefloor, the reported noisefloor level was pretty poor. Initially I assumed that something was wrong in the PHY setup and it would be impossible to fix without any guidances. But this was not the case. In fact the nf readings were correct and the thing that was broken was the "simple" sign extension code! Signed-off-by: Christian Lamparter <chunkeey@googlemail.com> Signed-off-by: John W.

Bruno Randolf authored
Get rid of overly complicated cw_min/max and AIFS configuration: * Validate values in ath5k_hw_set_tx_queueprops(), so we can use them directly without further checks or computation in ath5k_hw_reset_tx_queue(). * Simplifiy by using AR5K_TUNE_AIFS|CWMIN|CWMAX variables directly since we don't support XR or B channels. That way we can also remove AR5K_TXQ_USEDEFAULT and the confusing logic around it. * Update data types: AIFS is u8, CW's are u16. * Remove now unneeded variables in ath5k_hw.

If we return a TX descriptor to the pool of available descriptors, while a queues TXDP still points to it we could potentially run into all sorts of troube. It has been suggested that there is hardware which can set the descriptors done bit before it reads ds_link and moves on to the next descriptor. While the documentation says this is not true for newer chipsets (the descriptor contents are copied to some internal memory), we don't know about older hardware. To be safe, we always keep the last descriptor in the queue, and avoid dangling TXDP pointers. Unfortunately this does not fully resolve the problem - queues still get stuck! This is similar to what ath9k does. Signed-off-by: Bruno Randolf <br1@einfach.org> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>

Since we do not know any better solution to the problem that TX queues can get stuck, this adds a timer-based watchdog, which will check for stuck queues and reset the hardware if necessary.

It does not make sense to stop queues for NF calibration. This will not stop transmissions from the card, if there are queued packets.

Prepare ath5k for WME by using four hardware queues. The way we set up our queues matches the mac80211 queue priority 1:1, so we don't have to do any mapping for queue numbers. Every queue uses 50 of the total 200 available transmit buffers, so the DMA memory usage does not increase with this patch, but it might be good to fine-tune the number of buffers per queue later (depending on the CPU speed and load, and the speed of the medium access, it might not be big enough).

This change reorganizes the main ath5k file in order to re-group related functions and remove most of the forward declarations (from 61 down to 3).

Fixing up a merge issue / concurrent development: Remove unneeded ath_crypt_caps flags, as per "ath9k_hw: remove useless hw capability flags" (364734fa), but set the AESCCM flag for ath9k. common ath code still needs a flag for this because there is ath5k hardware which can't do AES in hardware.

Related dicussion here : http://lkml.org/lkml/2010/9/3/16 Introduce a function br_parse_ip_options that will audit the skb and possibly refill IP options before a packet enters the IP stack. If no options are present, the function will zero out the skb cb area so that it is not misinterpreted as options by some unsuspecting IP layer routine. If packet consistency fails, drop it.
