2011-01-25ath9k_hw: read and backup AR_WA register value even before chip reset on.Senthil Balasubramanian
We need to read and backup AR_WA register value permanently and reading this after the chip is awakened results in this register being zeroed out. This seems to fix the ASPM with L1 enabled issue that we have observed. The laptop becomes very slow and hangs mostly with ASPM L1 enabled without this fix.

2011-01-25ath9k_hw: Fix incorrect macversion and macrev checksSenthil Balasubramanian
There are few places where we are checking for macversion and revsions before RTC is powered ON. However we are reading the macversion and revisions only after RTC is powered ON and so both macversion and revisions are actully zero and this leads to incorrect srev checks Incorrect srev checks can cause registers to be configured wrongly and can cause unexpected behavior. Fixing this seems to address the ASPM issue that we have observed. The laptop becomes very slow and hangs mostly with ASPM L1 enabled without this fix. fix this by reading the macversion and revisisons even before we start using them. There is no reason why should we delay reading this info until RTC is powered on as this is just a register information.

2011-01-19mac80211: track receiver's aggregation reorder buffer sizeJohannes Berg
The aggregation code currently doesn't implement the buffer size negotiation. It will always request a max buffer size (which is fine, if a little pointless, as the mac80211 code doesn't know and might just use 0 instead), but if the peer requests a smaller size it isn't possible to honour this request. In order to fix this, look at the buffer size in the addBA response frame, keep track of it and pass it to the driver in the ampdu_action callback when called with the IEEE80211_AMPDU_TX_OPERATIONAL action. That way the driver can limit the number of subframes in aggregates appropriately. Note that this doesn't fix any drivers apart from the addition of the new argument -- they all need to be updated separately to use this variable!

2011-01-19ath9k: Fix up hardware mode and beacons with multiple vifs.Ben Greear
When using a mixture of AP and Station interfaces, the hardware mode was using the type of the last VIF registered. Instead, we should keep track of the number of different types of vifs and set the mode accordingly. In addtion, use the vif type instead of hardware opmode when dealing with beacons. Attempt to move some of the common setup code into smaller methods so we can re-use it when changing vif mode as well as adding/deleting vifs.

2011-01-19ath9k: fix excessive BAR sending when a frame exceeds its retry limitFelix Fietkau

2011-01-19ath9k: try more than one tid when scheduling a new aggregateFelix Fietkau
Sometimes the first TID in the first AC's list is not available for forming a new aggregate (the BAW might not allow it), however other TIDs may have data available for sending. Prevent a slowdown of other TIDs by going through multiple entries until we've either hit the last one or enough AMPDUs are pending in the hardware queue.

2011-01-19ath9k_htc: keep calibrated noise floor value for oper channelRajkumar Manoharan
The ath9k_hw assumes that caldata is valid only for oper channel. But with ath9k_htc case, the caldata is passed for all channels on hw_reset though we are not doing calibration on that channel. So the oper channel's nf history got cleared to default due to mismatch in channel flags. This patch also saves some space.

2011-01-19ath9k_hw: partially revert "fix dma descriptor rx error bit parsing"Felix Fietkau
The rx error bit parsing was changed to consider PHY errors and various decryption errors separately. While correct according to the documentation, this is causing spurious decryption error reports in some situations. Fix this by restoring the original order of the checks in those places, where the errors are meant to be mutually exclusive. If a CRC error is reported, then MIC failure and decryption errors are irrelevant, and a PHY error is unlikely. Signed-off-by: Felix Fietkau <nbd@openwrt.org> Signed-off-by: John W.

2011-01-19ath9k: reduce the likelihood of baseband hang check false positivesFelix Fietkau
Since baseband hangs are rare, but the hang check function has a high false positive rate in some situations, we need to add more reliable indicators. In AP mode we can use blocked beacon transmissions as an indicator, they should be rare enough. In station mode, we can skip the hang check entirely, since a true hang will trigger beacon loss detection, and mac80211 will rescan, which leads to a hw reset that will bring the hardware back to life. To make this more reliable, we need to skip fast channel changes if the hardware appears to be stuck. Signed-off-by: Felix Fietkau <nbd@openwrt.org> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>

2011-01-19ath9k: fix initial sequence number after starting an ampdu sessionFelix Fietkau
txtid->seq_start may not always be up to date, when there is HT non-AMPDU traffic just before starting an AMPDU session.

2011-01-19ath9k: fix bogus sequence number increases on aggregation tid flushFelix Fietkau
