2010-09-28ath5k: Increase "fudge" for beacon timersBruno Randolf
We use FUDGE to make sure the next TBTT is ahead of the current TU. Since we later substract AR5K_TUNE_SW_BEACON_RESP (10) in the timer configuration we need to make sure it is bigger than that. Signed-off-by: Bruno Randolf <br1@einfach.org> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>
2010-09-28ath5k: Check and fix ATIM windowBruno Randolf
This patch adds sanity-checks for the beacon timers and especially the ATIM window to ath5k. It is basically the same what i did for madwifi two years ago and fixes a problem in IBSS mode which has been described as "ramping" pings. See the code comments for a more detailed description and these links: http://madwifi-project.org/ticket/1154 http://madwifi-project.org/changeset/3867 http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.drivers.madwifi.devel/6066 Signed-off-by: Bruno Randolf <br1@einfach.org> Signed-off-by: John W.

2010-09-28carl9170: revamp carl9170_tx_prepareChristian Lamparter
David Miller complained about the driver's excessive use of variables in __packed structs. While I did not fully agree with his sole "performance" argument on all accounts. I do see some room for improvement in hot-paths on architectures without an efficient access to unaligned elements. This first patch (dare I say?) optimizes an important tx hot-path in the driver: carl9170_tx_prepare. Signed-off-by: Christian Lamparter <chunkeey@googlemail.com> Signed-off-by: John W.

Broadcom's Windows driver for the 4313 advertises an ampdu density of 7 => 16 us. The AR9170 MAC on the other hand only supports densities up to 8 us.

2010-09-28carl9170: fix tx_ampdu_upload counterChristian Lamparter
tx_ampdu_upload was not decreased when an a-MPDU frame had to be kicked out from the tx_pending queues.

2010-09-28carl9170: remove lost-frame workaroundChristian Lamparter
This patch removes some cruft, which survived the RFC review phase. Originally, carl9170_tx_ampdu_queue erroneously dropped a lot of frames. As a result the ampdu scheduler bogged down quite frequently and the affected BA session timed out. However this bug has been fixed and the WA and its debugfs counter is no longer useful.

2010-09-28iwl3945: queue the right work if the scan needs to be abortedFlorian Mickler
iwl3945's scan_completed calls into the mac80211 stack which triggers a warn on if there is no scan outstanding. This can be avoided by not calling scan_completed but abort_scan in iwl3945_request_scan in the done: branch of the function which is used as an error out. The done: branch seems to be an error-out branch, as, for example, if iwl_is_ready(priv) returns false the done: branch is executed. NOTE: I'm not familiar with the driver at all. I just quickly scanned as a reaction to https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=17722 the users of scan_completed in the iwl3945 driver and noted the odd discrepancy between the comment above this instance and the comment in mac80211 scan_completed function.

2010-09-28wl1271: Optimize scan durationJuuso Oikarinen
Currently then dwell times for each channel in scans is set to an overly long value, and excessive number of probe-requests are transmitted on each channel (for active scans.) Based on testing, comparable results can be received with smaller dwell-time, and, with fever probe-requests - in fact, reducing the number of probe-requests to 2 seems to increase the number of found results. Configure more optimal values for per channel dwell times. Comparison for the different scan configurations (in my current office environment): dwell-time 60000 3x probe-req == ~60 results 40000 3x probe-req == ~50 results 30000 3x probe-req == ~40 results dwell-time 60000 2x probe-req == ~70 results 40000 2x probe-req == ~60 results 30000 2x probe-req == ~58 results The above are results for a cumulative 3 scan run. For individual scans, the number of results drop slightly more.

2010-09-28wl1271: Fix scan race conditionJuuso Oikarinen
In the scan state machine, the wl1271_mutex is unlocked first then relocked, and then the scan state variables are modified. This makes it possible for ieee80211_scan_complete to be called twice in some scenarios, as the scan completion event from the firmware may be processed while the mutex is unlocked. To fix the issue, move the ieee80211_scan_complete call last in the function. This is generally safer, but there still may be issues is functions calling the scan state machine rely on states checked before the unlocking of the global mutex. (forward ported from 2.6.32 -- this is not strictly needed anymore, because the mutex doesn't need to be unlocked anymore, but I'm applying this change anyway, so that the call to ieee80211_scan_complete is in the same place) Signed-off-by: Juuso Oikarinen <juuso.oikarinen@nokia.com> Reviewed-by: Saravanan Dhanabal <ext-saravanan.dhanabal@nokia.com> Signed-off-by: Luciano Coelho <luciano.coelho@nokia.com>
