mac80211 currently has a race which can be hit with this sequence: * Start a scan operation. * TX BA is initiated by ieee80211_start_tx_ba_session(). * Driver sets up internal state and calls ieee80211_start_tx_ba_cb_irqsafe(). * mac80211 adds a packet to sdata->skb_queue with type IEEE80211_SDATA_QUEUE_AGG_START. * ieee80211_iface_work() doesn't process the packet because scan is in progress. * ADDBA response timer expires and the sta/tid is torn down. * Driver receives BA stop notification and calls ieee80211_stop_tx_ba_cb_irqsafe(). * This is also added to the queue by mac80211. * Now, scan finishes. At this point, the queued up packets might be processed if some other operation schedules the sdata work. Since the tids have been cleaned up already, warnings are hit. If this doesn't happen, the packets are left in the queue until the interface is torn down. Since initiating a BA session when scan is in progress leads to flaky connections, especially in MCC mode, we can drop the TX BA request. This improves connectivity with legacy clients in MCC mode.

The flush timeout in MCC mode is very small, since we are constrained by the time slice for each channel context, but since only the HW queues are flushed when switching contexts, it is acceptable. Since the SW queues are also emptied in the mac80211 flush() callback, a larger duration is needed. Add an override argument to __ath9k_flush() and set it when flush() is called in MCC mode. This allows the driver to drain both the SW and HW queues. Signed-off-by: Sujith Manoharan <c_manoha@qca.qualcomm.com> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>

Instead of using ATH_CHANCTX_EVENT_ASSIGN to abort a HW scan when a new interface becomes active, use the mgd_prepare_tx() callback. This allows us to make sure that the GO's channel becomes operational by using flush_work(). Signed-off-by: Sujith Manoharan <c_manoha@qca.qualcomm.com> Signed-off-by: John W.

mac80211 has to be notified when a RoC period expires in the driver. In MCC mode, since the offchannel/RoC timer is set with the requested duration, ieee80211_remain_on_channel_expired() needs to be called when the timer expires. But, currently it is done after we move back to the operating channel. This is incorrect - fix this by calling ieee80211_remain_on_channel_expired() when the RoC timer expires and in ath_roc_complete() when the RoC request is aborted.

ATH_CHANCTX_EVENT_AUTHORIZED is required to trigger the MCC scheduler when a station interface becomes authorized. But, since the driver gets station state notifications when the current operating mode is AP too, make sure that we send ATH_CHANCTX_EVENT_AUTHORIZED only when the interface is in station mode.

Pending frames in the driver can be present either in the HW queues or SW. ath9k_has_pending_frames() currently checks for the HW queues first and then checks if any ACs are queued in the driver. In MCC mode, we need to check the HW queues alone, since the SW queues are just marked as 'stopped' - they will be processed in the next context switch. But since we don't differentiate this now, mention whether we want to check if there are frames in the SW queues. * The flush() callback checks both HW and SW queues. * The tx_frames_pending() callback does the same. * The call to __ath9k_flush() in MCC mode checks HW queues alone.

An offchannel operation also needs to have a flush timeout that doesn't exceed the NoA absence duration of a GO context, so use channel_switch_time. The first offchannel operation is set a flush timeout of 10ms since channel_switch_time will be zero. Signed-off-by: Sujith Manoharan <c_manoha@qca.qualcomm.com> Signed-off-by: John W.

In MCC mode, the duration for a channel context is half the beacon interval and having a large flush timeout will adversely affect GO operation, since the default value of 200ms will overshoot the advertised NoA absence duration. The scheduler initiates a channel context switch only when the slot duration for the current context expires, so there is no possibility of having a fixed timeout for flush. Since the channel_switch_time is added to the absence duration when the GO sets up the NoA attribute, this is the maximum time that we have to flush the TX queues. The duration is very small, but we don't have a choice in MCC mode. Signed-off-by: Sujith Manoharan <c_manoha@qca.qualcomm.com> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>

When a HW reset is done, the interrupt tasklet is disabled before ISRs are disabled in the HW. This allows a small window where the HW can still generate interrupts. Since the tasklet is disabled and not killed, it is not scheduled but deferred for execution at a later time. This happens because ATH_OP_HW_RESET is not set when ath_reset() is called. When the hw_reset_work workqueue is used, this problem doesn't arise because ATH_OP_HW_RESET is set and the ISR bails out. Set ATH_OP_HW_RESET properly in ath_reset() to avoid this race - all the ath_reset_internal() callers have been converted to use ath_reset() in the previous patch.

When the current operating channel context has been marked as ATH_CHANCTX_STATE_FORCE_ACTIVE, do not process beacons that might be received, since we have to wait for the station to become authorized. Also, since the cached TSF value will be zero initially do not rearm the timer in this case when a beacon is received, since it results in spurious values.

In MCC mode, currently the decision to enable the multi-channel state machine is done based on the association status if one of the interfaces assigned to a context is in station mode. This allows the driver to switch to the other context before the current station is able to complete the 4-way handshake in case it is required and this causes problems. Instead, enable multi-channel mode when the station moves to the authorized state. This disallows an early switch to the other channel.

The original condition was "(PAGE_SIZE - len)" when "(len < PAGE_SIZE)" is intended. This condition is not really sufficient, but also not really needed... If "len > PAGE_SIZE" then it we will print a warning message in dmesg but there are no other effects. Maybe we should just remove the condition?

The ->ibss_dfs pointer is always allocated with a user controlled length. This caused a static checker warning because what if the length was zero? In that case, any dereference of ->ibss_dfs would lead to an Oops. It turns out that this isn't a problem because the ->ibss_dfs pointer is never used. This patch deletes it along with all the related code. In particular the entire libipw_network_reset() function can be removed.

We provide timeout value to rt2x00usb_vendor_request_buff() based on number of registers to process. That value is passed down to rt2x00usb_vendor_req_buff_lock() and ends in usb_control_msg(). But we do not read/write all registers in rt2x00usb_vendor_req_buff_lock() at once. We read/write them in chunks of 64 bytes in the loop, hence passed timeout value to low level is too big. Patch removes timeout argument from rt2x00usb_vendor_request_buff() and use short REGISTER_TIMEOUT in rt2x00usb_vendor_req_buff_lock(). That timeout value should be fine for 64 bytes and smaller requests. For EEPROM read we introduced new timeout value equal to 2 seconds. Patch fixes process uninterruptible sleep stalls for long period, when USB bus has problem to satisfy a request and we wait very long time on usb_start_wait_urb().

A frequent request have been to be able to provide calibration data from a file as some of the AP devices store the calibration data on an MTD partition. This patchset adds support for that and also makes it easier to add Device Tree support later on. The calibration data is found by using the id string provided by dev_name() using this format: cal-<bus>-<id>.bin With PCI the id string contains bus, slot and func values. For example for a PCI device in bus 2 slot 0, ath10k will try to retrieve a calibration data from a file: /lib/firmware/ath10k/cal-pci-0000:02:00.0.bin The calibration data sequence is: 1. Check with request_firmware() if there's a calibration file ("cal-<bus>-<id>.bin") on the filesystem for this device. If yes, use that. If not, goto 2 2. Check if otp.bin is able to successfully load the calibration data from OTP. If yes, use that. If not, goto 3. 4. Print an error message that no calibration data found and stop driver initialization for this device. Signed-off-by: Kalle Valo <kvalo@qca.qualcomm.com>
