The commit "ath9k_hw: remove code duplication in phy error counter handling" split off some duplicate code into a separate function, but did not have a return code for aborting ANI processing based on counter values. This introduced a divide by zero issue. This patch adds the missing return code check in ath9k_hw_ani_monitor Signed-off-by: Felix Fietkau <nbd@openwrt.org> Signed-off-by: John W.

While the chip is in powersave mode, the cycle counter updates do not contain useful values. While the chip is in full sleep, the rx_clear signal stays high, indicating a busy medium. To ensure sane values, update cycle counters before going into powersave, and clear them right after switching back to awake. Signed-off-by: Felix Fietkau <nbd@openwrt.org> Signed-off-by: John W.

The RXON checking is a bit magical, and prints out too much information if something goes wrong. Make it less magical and print out only the items that were actually wrong. Also remove the comment about removing it -- the driver is constantly changing so these checks are useful. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>

There's no need to check for NULL before calling dev_kfree_skb() since it is valid to call it on NULL -- it becomes a no-op. There's also no need to initialise the beacon_skb variable to NULL just after the memory it is in has been kzalloc'ed. Some minor whitespace cleanups, and a lock assertion in a function that needs the mutex (to access the beacon_skb var) complete the patch.

There are two passive 2.4 GHz channels: 12 and 13. If you have a hidden SSID on those, you will not be able to connect to it because we don't send out probe requests there. We can allow this by using the firmware's probe-after-rx functionality on those channels as well.

wext: fix alignment problem in serializing 'struct iw_point' This fixes a typo in the definition of the serialized length of struct iw_point: a) wireless.h is exported to userspace, the typo causes IW_EV_POINT_PK_LEN to be 12 on 64-bit, and 8 on 32-bit systems (causing misalignment); b) in compat-64 mode iwe_stream_add_point() memcpys overlap (see below). The second case in in compat-64 mode looks like (variable names are as in include/net/iw_handler.h:iwe_stream_add_point()): point_len = IW_EV_COMPAT_POINT_LEN = 8 lcp_len = IW_EV_COMPAT_LCP_LEN = 4 2nd memcpy: IW_EV_POINT_PK_LEN - IW_EV_LCP_PK_LEN = 12 - 4 = 8 IW_EV_LCP_PK_LEN <--------------> *---> 'extra' data area +-------+-------+-------+-------+---------------+------- ...-+ | len | cmd |length | flags | (empty) -> extra ... | +-------+-------+-------+-------+---------------+------- ...-+ 2 2 2 2 4 lcp_len <--------------> <-!! OVERLAP !!> <--1st memcpy--><------- 2nd memcpy -----------> <---- 3rd memcpy ------- ... > <--------- point_len ----------> This case could cause overrun whenever iw_point.length < 4. The other two cases are - * 32-bit systems: IW_EV_POINT_PK_LEN - IW_EV_LCP_PK_LEN = 8 - 4 = 4, the second memcpy copies exactly the 4 required bytes; * 64-bit systems: IW_EV_POINT_PK_LEN - IW_EV_LCP_PK_LEN = 12 - 4 = 8, the second memcpy copies a superfluous (but non overlapping) 4 bytes. The patch changes IW_EV_POINT_PK_LEN to be 8, so that in all 3 cases always only the requested iw_point.{length,flags} (both __u16) are copied, avoiding overrrun (compat-64) and superfluous copy (64-bit). In addition, the userspace header is sanitized (in agreement with version 30 of the wireless tools). Many thanks to Johannes Berg for help and review with this patch.

kill_urb guarentees that when the function returns, the URB has been fully killed. This means we don't need the extra sleeping after the call to kill_urb. kill_urb can however also guarentee the submit_urb to fail, as a result, we must catch the return value from submit_urb an correctly mark the entry as owned by the driver, and the status as broken.

The watchdog function must run on a work_queue which is independent of any other work inside rt2x00. The main reasons, being that a broken work on the mac80211 work_queue can otherwise prevent the watchdog to run (while in fact the watchdog could fix the issue). And on the other hand because the watchdog relies on the completion of the completion handlers for RX/TX which for the USB case, occur on the mac80211 workqueue. This fixes some "Queue %d failed to flush" errors, which were caused by the watchdog function waiting on the completion handler which was scheduled to run right after the watchdog.

A lot of functions accept a struct rt2x00_dev combined with either a struct queue_entry or struct data_queue argument. This can be simplified by only passing on the queue/entry argument. In cases where rt2x00_dev and a sk_buff are send together, we can send the queue_entry instead. rt2x00usb_alloc_urb and rt2x00usb_free_urb have a bit of vague naming. Instead they allocate all the data which belongs to a rt2x00 data queue entry.

This patch attempts to ensure that ath9k's built-in rate control algorithm does not rely on the value of the ampdu_len and ampdu_ack_len tx status fields unless the IEEE80211_TX_STAT_AMPDU flag is set.

This patch fixes the following problems with the rate control feedback generated by ath9k for A-MPDU frames: 1. Rate control feedback is carried on the first frame of an aggregate that is either ACKed, or has execeeded the software retry count and is considered failed. However, ath9k would incorrectly assume the aggregate had the length 1 if one of these conditions did not apply to the first frame of the aggregate, but instead a later frame. This fix therefor copies the bf_nframes field of the buffer in the same manner as the rates field of the tx status. 2. Sometimes the ampdu_len and ampdu_ack_len fields of the tx status was left uninitialized eventhough the IEEE80211_TX_STAT_AMPDU flag was set. This is now avoid by setting flag and fields in the same place. 3. Even if a frame has been selected for aggregation by mac80211 and marked with the IEEE80211_TX_CTL_AMPDU flag it can sometimes happen that ath9k transmits the frame without aggregation. In these cases the ampdu_ack_len field could be incorrectly computed because the nbad parameter to ath_tx_rc_status was incorrect.

This patch fixes two problems with the minstrel_ht rate control algorithms handling of A-MPDU frames: 1. The ampdu_len field of the tx status is not always initialized for non-HT frames (and it would probably be unreasonable to require all drivers to do so). This could cause rate control statistics to be corrupted. We now trust the ampdu_len and ampdu_ack_len fields only when the frame is marked with the IEEE80211_TX_STAT_AMPDU flag. 2. Successful transmission attempts where only recognized when the A-MPDU subframe carrying the rate control status information was marked with the IEEE80211_TX_STAT_ACK flag. If this information happed to be carried on a frame that failed to be ACKed then the other subframes (which may have succeeded) where not correctly registered. We now update rate control statistics regardless of whether the subframe carrying the information was ACKed or not.
