This reverts commit 5ed3bc72. It turns-out that not all drivers are calling ieee80211_tx_status from a compatible context. Revert this for now and try again later... Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>

This reverts commit 030725d2. This commit relies on commit 5ed3bc72 ("mac80211: use netif_receive_skb in ieee80211_tx_status callpath") Unfortunately not all drivers are calling ieee80211_tx_status from a compatible context, so that commit needs to be reverted in 2.6.36.

When multiple interfaces are actively trying to associate with the same BSS, they may both find that the BSS isn't there and then try to unlink it. This can cause errors since the unlinking code can't currently deal with items that have already been unlinked. Normally this doesn't happen as most people don't try to use multiple station interfaces that associate at the same time too. Fix this by using the list entry as a flag to see if the item is still on a list.

This reverts commit 7acc7c68. It was applied to avoid possible warning in ieee80211_restart_hw, however reason of the warning were races in mac80211, currently hopefully fixed. Not reseting device when performing scan is bad for two reasons. When forcing reset from iwl_check_stuck_queue(), in case of fail, reset will be repeated until scan finish. But since firmware is in bad shape, scan only finish after scan_check work (about 7s). So we will delay the reset, what is not good behaviour. When forcing reset from iwl_recover_from_statistics(), we will not repeat the reset, so we will not perform reset at all when needed.

This is partial revert and fix for commit 85f72bc8 "mac80211: only cancel software-based scans on suspend" When cfg80211 request the scan and mac80211 perform some management work, we defer the scan request. We do not canceling such requests when calling ieee80211_scan_cancel(), because of SCAN_SW_SCANNING bit check just before the call. So fix that problem. Another problem, which commit 85f72bc8 tries to solve, is we can not cancel HW scan. Hence patch make ieee80211_scan_cancel() ignore HW scan (see code comments). Keeping local->mtx lock assures that the deferred scan will not become "working" HW scan.

We are taking local->mtx inside __ieee80211_scan_completed(), but just before call to that function we drop the lock. Dropping/taking lock is not good, because can lead to hard to understand race conditions. Patch split scan_completed() code into two functions, first must be called with local->mtx taken and second without it.

When roaming while we have active BA session, we can end up transmitting delBA frames to the old AP while we're already on the new AP's channel, which can cause warnings. Simply avoid sending those frames, but still tear down the internal session state, since they are not really necessary anyway as we will implicitly disassociate when sending the association to the new AP.

drv_config callback is called only after the ack for the nullframe is received and so driver need not do anything special for this.

ANI state is kept per channel, so instead of keeping an array of ANI states with an arbitrary size of 255, move the ANI state into the channel struct. Move some config settings that are not per-channel out of the per-channel struct to save some memory. With those changes, ath9k_ani_restart_old and ath9k_ani_restart_new can be merged into a single function. Signed-off-by: Felix Fietkau <nbd@openwrt.org> Signed-off-by: John W.

Throughout the code, DISABLE_REGWRITE_BUFFER is always called right after REGWRITE_BUFFER_FLUSH.

The cycle counters are used by ANI to determine the amount of time that the radio spent not receiving or transmitting. They're also used for debugging purposes if the baseband watchdog on AR9003 detects a lockup. In the future, we want to use these counters to determine the medium utilization and export this information via survey. For that, we need to make sure that the counter is only accessed from one place, which also ensures that wraparounds won't occur at inconvenient points in time.

The calibration actual calibration flags are only used by the per chip family source files, so it makes more sense to define them in those files instead of globally. That way the code has to test for less flags. Also instead of using a separate callback for testing whether a particular calibration type is supported, simply adjust ah->supp_cals in the calibration init which is called right after the hardware reset, before any of the calibrations are run.

We never delete the addBA response timer, which is typically fine, but if the station it belongs to is deleted very quickly after starting the BA session, before the peer had a chance to reply, the timer may fire after the station struct has been freed already. Therefore, we need to delete the timer in a suitable spot -- best when the session is being stopped (which will happen even then) in which case the delete will be a no-op most of the time. I've reproduced the scenario and tested the fix.

Be consistent and use the wk->chan instead of the local->hw.conf.channel for the association done work. This prevents any possible races against channel changes while we run this work. In the case that the race did happen we would be initializing the bit rates for the new AP under the assumption of a wrong channel and in the worst case, wrong band. This could lead to trying to assuming we could use CCK frames on 5 GHz, for example. This patch has a fix for kernels >= v2.6.34 Cc: stable@kernel.org Signed-off-by: Luis R.

The base_eep_header_4k structure contains information that the device supports high power tx gain table or not. However the ath9k_hw_4k_get_eeprom function does not return that value when it is called with EEP_TXGAIN_TYPE. This leads to that the tx gain initialization will use the init values from the original tx gain table even if the device inidicates that the high power table should be used.

We should only wake up queues which mac80211 knows about (queues 0-3). We have another internal queue ("CAB", queue number 6) which we use for power-saved frames.

The locking around ieee80211_recalc_smps is buggy -- it cannot acquire another interface's mutex while the iflist mutex is held because another code path could be holding the iface mutex and trying to acquire the iflist mutex. But the locking is also unnecessary, we only check "ifmgd->associated" as a bool, and don't use the pointer (in check_mgd_smps).
