AP mode beacon timers in ath9k are configured in milliseconds, which breaks when increasing ATH_BCBUF to 8 instead of 4 (due to rounding errors). Since the hardware timers are actually configured in microseconds, it's better to let the driver use that unit directly. To be able to do that, the beacon interval parameter abuse for passing certain flags needs to be removed. This is easy to do, because those flags are completely unnecessary anyway. ATH9K_BEACON_ENA is ignored, ATH9K_BEACON_RESET_TSF can be replaced with calling ath9k_hw_reset_tsf from the driver directly. Signed-off-by: Felix Fietkau <nbd@openwrt.org> Signed-off-by: John W.

ieee80211_tx_status iterates over all tx rates the driver reports back in order to 1) mark tx rates as invalid if the driver cannot have tried that rate 2) find the actually used tx rate for the final retransmission By leaving the for loop when the first invalid rate index is found we can move the rates_idx assignment after the loop and therefore save a few assignments and conditionals.

This workaround called ath_txq_schedule whenever there were still pending frames for a queue, but the queue depth was zero. Because of its its high false positive probability (e.g. with paused TIDs) and because it is in the way of other pending work (AP powersave fixes), it is better to remove this code entirely.

Most AR9100 devices already have a chainmask of 7 (three antennas), however on the ones that don't (rx and tx chainmask set to 5), problems with IQ mismatch calibration have been observed. This shows up as tx queue hangs (and subsequent hardware resets) if traffic is sent during this type of calibration. Forcing the rx chainmask to 7 fixes the calibration issues with no apparent negative side effects on throughput and stability. Signed-off-by: Felix Fietkau <nbd@openwrt.org> Signed-off-by: John W.

When an ampdu stream is on, if the firmware rate adaptation logic decides that the outgoing packet rate to the station needs to go below 6.5Mbps (non HT rate), it sends an event indicating that the ampdu stream needs to be destroyed. Handle this event in the driver and destroy the ampdu stream so that the rate can go below 6.5Mbps Signed-off-by: Nishant Sarmukadam <nishants@marvell.com> Signed-off-by: Brian Cavagnolo <brian@cozybit.com> Signed-off-by: John W.

Specifically, handle ampdu_action and attempt to start a BA session on receiving the first qos packet from mac80211 for transmission to a HT sta. While the BA session is being created, all the packets belonging to that stream will be dropped to prevent sequence number mismatch at the recipient.

We now have two different kinds of queues. And the number of AMPDU queues may vary. So we must be clear about which queues we are dealing with. Note that when we report the number of queues to mac80211, we only report the WMM queues. Based on work by Yogesh Powar <yogeshp@marvell.com>.

Firmware APIv2 adds the following enhancements: -- capabilities are reported by the firmware -- API supports up to 8 dedicated AMPDU streams -- optional packet timestamping and expiration can be enabled.

Specifically, APIv2 will specify a variable number of AMPDU queues in the MWL8K_CMD_GET_HW_SPEC. So init the tx queues after MWL8K_CMD_GET_HW_SPEC for ap fw. Also, we make it safe to deinit queues that have not been init'd. This happens if the mwl8k_get_hw_spec_ap routine fails, for example.

Fine-tuning register write operation and avoid unnecessay delays for ath9k_htc driver, saves hw reset time which improves scanning time and also solves one of the following scenario. Sometimes the ACK is sent by STA for assoc response is not seen at AP side. So the AP continues to send retry assoc responses. At the STA side, since the assoc response was already forwarded to mac80211, it proceeded to channel change which in turns does chip reset. In most of the cases the chip reset was completed before max retries are reached at AP side. Hence STA can able to ACK the retried frames again. But in clear environment these retries are completed within shortspan of time. Since ath9k_htc consumes more time for hw reset, this latency is causing dissociation by AP due to max reties are reached. This issue was originally reported with Cisco Aironet 1250 AP in HT40 mode in noise free environment. Signed-off-by: Rajkumar Manoharan <rmanoharan@atheros.com> Signed-off-by: John W.
