      ath9k: raise aggregation limit to 64k for HT IBSS · 313eb87f
      Sven Eckelmann authored
      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 cause is due to calling kfree_skb() with interrupts disabled.

      mac80211_hwsim: fix smatch/sparse complaints · d0f718c1
      Johannes Berg authored
      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")
