2009-10-27iwlwifi: showing accumulative ucode statistics countersWey-Yi Guy
Adding accumulative statistics counters in iwlwifi driver. Statistics counters are reported by uCode every beacon interval; but can be reset by uCode when needed. The accumulative statistics counters is maintained by driver to keep track of the history of all the counters. Update the ucode stats files in debugfs to display both latest and accumulative counters.

2009-10-27iwl3945: move iwl_power_initialize()Ben Cahill
iwl_power_initialize() initializes driver data (not device hardware), and does not need to execute more than once (when the driver initializes). Therefore, it does not belong in iwl3945_apm_init(), which initializes hardware, and may run more than once. Move it to iwl3945_pci_probe(), where it will run only once. This agrees with similar placement in iwl-agn.c's iwl_pci_probe(), although placement under "services" seemed more appropriate than under "mac80211".

2009-10-27iwlwifi: fix userspace setting of sleep_level_overrideReinette Chatre
The sleep_level_override debugfs file is used by the user to request a static power index instead of the dynamic sleep values. Users are expected to provide value from 1 to 5 as an index or -1 to disable it. The problem at the moment is that users can also provide 0 to this file which, together with the value 1, is translated to index 1. This is confusing and even more so when users write 0 to sleep_level_override and then read 1 from it afterwards. Modify checking to treat 0 as invalid.

Now that we're unconditionally using apm_ops.stop() to reset and power-down the device in __iwl3945_down(), the apm_ops.reset() is redundant. Removing this call will also allow us to remove iwl3945_apm_reset().

2009-10-27iwlwifi: turn off device when not used.Ben Cahill
In some cases (e.g. when mac80211 calls iwl_mac_stop() for suspend or user no longer wants device active), device has not been going into low power state via __iwl_down(). apm_ops.reset() does not put device into low power state; instead it resets the device, then puts it into a powered-up state ready to be re-loaded with uCode and re-started. This has needlessly warmed up user's laptops and drained batteries. With current architecture in which mac80211 controls device up/down (including resetting device after firmware errors), there is no need for apm_ops.reset() any more; apm_ops.reset() is basically a combination of apm_ops.stop() and apm_ops.init(). Instead, __iwl_down() now unconditionally places the device into a low-power state via apm_ops.stop(). Device may be re-started via __iwl_up() calling apm_ops.init() as soon as it may be needed (e.g. quickly for firmware errors), but in the meantime, device will stop wasting energy. Note that, even in this low power state, if driver re-enables interrupts, the device retains the ability to sense the hardware RF-KILL switch, and (except for 3945) interrupt the host when it changes.

Add resets for APMG interrupts and radio chip, formerly done only in iwl3945_apm_reset(); moving them here assures that apm_init() will do a complete job of preparing hardware not only after platform boot, but also after apm_stop() has executed (due to rfkill, ifconfig down, driver unload, etc.). This is in preparation to completely remove apm_reset(). Add some comments.

2009-10-07iwlwifi: validate the signature for EEPROM and OTPWey-Yi Guy
Both 1000 & 6000 series NICs contain on-chip OTP memory that replaces the off-chip EEPROM memory. The nature of OTP means there is a limited number of times a particular board can go through the factory flow and be (re)calibrated. As a consequence there will be some boards that contain EEPROM memory because OTP blocks were full. In the signature validation routine, iwlwifi needs to make sure "select bit" and "EEPROM/OTP signature" agree on the type of NVM to be used to configure the system.

2009-10-07iwlwifi: LED cleanupJohannes Berg
The iwlwifi drivers have LED blinking requirements that mac80211 cannot fulfill due to the use of just a single LED instead of different ones for TX, RX, radio etc. Instead, the single LED blinks according to transfers and is solid on the rest of the time. As such, having LED class devices registered that mac80211 triggers are connected to is pointless as we don't use the triggers anyway. Remove all the useless code and add hooks into the driver itself. At the same time, make the LED code abstracted so the core code that determines blink rate etc. can be shared between 3945 and agn in iwlcore. At the same time, the fact that we removed the use of the mac80211 LED triggers means we can also remove the IWLWIFI_LEDS Kconfig symbol since the LED support is now self-contained.

2009-10-07iwlwifi: reliable entering of critical temperature stateWey-Yi Guy
When uCode detects critical temperature it should send "card state notification" interrupt to driver and then shut itself down to prevent overheating. There is a race condition where uCode shuts down before it can deliver the interrupt to driver. Additional method provided here for driver to enter CT_KILL state based on temperature reading. How it works: Method 1: If driver receive "card state notification" interrupt from uCode; it enters "CT_KILL" state immediately Method 2: If the last temperature report by Card reach Critical temperature, driver will send "statistic notification" request to uCode to verify the temperature reading, if driver can not get reply from uCode within 300ms, driver will enter CT_KILL state automatically. Method 3: If the last temperature report by Card did not reach Critical temperature, but uCode already shut down due to critical temperature. All the host commands send to uCode will not get process by uCode; when command queue reach the limit, driver will check the last reported temperature reading, if it is within pre-defined margin, enter "CT_KILL" state immediately. In this case, when uCode ready to exit from "CT_KILL" state, driver need to restart the adapter in order to reset all the queues and resume normal operation. One additional issue being address here, when system is in CT_KILL state, both tx and rx already stopped, but driver still can send host command to uCode, it will flood the command queue since card was not responding; adding STATUS_CT_KILL flag to reject enqueue host commands to uCode if it is in CT_KILL state, when uCode is ready to come out of CT_KILL, driver will clear the STATUS_CT_KILL bit and allow enqueue the host commands to uCode to recover from CT_KILL state.

2009-10-07iwlwifi: add aggregation tables to the rate scaling algorithmDaniel C Halperin
Current rate scale algorithm fluctuates between different MIMO modes fairly rapidly, causing widely varying performance. These fluctuations occur because in the rate_scale tables for expected throughput the values are not very different for different modes. However, when aggregation is turned on and MAC overhead is reduced, the expected throughput for different MIMO modes grows and different modes have vastly different performance. Add expected throughput tables for this case. We also need to keep track of aggregation status per-station, so we add the "is_agg" field to struct lq_sta. Also includes cleanup of comments and variable names in/around the affected code.

2009-10-07iwlwifi: Use RTS/CTS as the preferred protection mechanism for 6000 seriesWey-Yi Guy
When 802.11g was introduced, we had RTS/CTS and CTS-to-Self protection mechanisms. In an HT Beacon, HT stations use the "Operating Mode" field in the HT Information Element to determine whether or not to use protection. The Operating Mode field has 4 possible settings: 0-3: Mode 0: If all stations in the BSS are 20/40 MHz HT capable, or if the BSS is 20/40 MHz capable, or if all stations in the BSS are 20 MHz HT stations in a 20 MHz BSS Mode 1: used if there are non-HT stations or APs using the primary or secondary channels Mode 2: if only HT stations are associated in the BSS and at least one 20 MHz HT station is associated. Mode 3: used if one or more non-HT stations are associated in the BSS. When in operating modes 1 or 3, and the Use_Protection field is 1 in the Beacon's ERP IE, all HT transmissions must be protected using RTS/CTS or CTS-to-Self. By default, CTS-to-self is the preferred protection mechanism for less overhead and higher throughput; but using the full RTS/CTS will better protect the inner exchange from interference, especially in highly-congested environment. For 6000 series WIFI NIC, RTS/CTS protection mechanism is the recommended choice for HT traffic based on the HW design.

2009-10-07iwlwifi: clarify and clean up chain settingsJohannes Berg
The chain settings we currently use in iwlwifi are rather confusing -- and we also go by the wrong settings entirely under certain circumstances. To clean it up, create a new variable in the current HT config -- single_chain_sufficient -- that tells us whether we need more than one chain. Calculate that based on the AP and operating mode (no IBSS HT implemented -- so no need for multiple chains, for station mode we use the AP's capabilities). Additionally, since APs always send disabled SM PS mode, keeping track of their sm_ps mode isn't very useful -- doubly not so for our _own_ RX config since that should depend on our, not the AP's, SM PS mode. Finally, document that our configuration of the number of RX chains used is currently wrong when in powersave (by adding a comment). All together this removes the two remaining items in struct iwl_ht_config that were done wrong there. For the future, the number of RX chains and some SM PS handshaking needs to be added to mac80211, which then needs to tell us, and the new variable current_ht_config.single_chain_sufficient should also be calculated by mac80211.

2009-10-07iwlwifi: Adjust blink rate to compensate Clock differenceWey-Yi Guy
Adjust led blink rate to compensate on a MAC Clock difference on every HW. Led blink rate analysis showed an average deviation of 0% on 3945, 5% on 4965 HW and 20% on 5000 series and up. Need to compensate on the led on/off time per HW according to the deviation to achieve the desired led frequency The calculation is: (100-averageDeviation)/100 * blinkTime For code efficiency the calculation will be: compensation = (100 - averageDeviation) * 64 / 100 NewBlinkTime = (compensation * BlinkTime) / 64 Signed-off-by: Wey-Yi Guy <wey-yi.w.guy@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Reinette Chatre <reinette.chatre@intel.com> Signed-off-by: John W.

2009-10-07iwlwifi: clean up ht config a littleJohannes Berg
is_ht can be bool instead of u8, and there's no need to use IWL_CHANNEL_WIDTH_* constants in supported_chan_width when that could just be named is_40mhz instead.

2009-10-07iwlwifi: separate set_hw_params function for 6000 seriesWey-Yi Guy
Separate set_hw_params() function for 6000 series from 5000/1000 series because: 1) 6000 series use different set of sensitivity range table 2) 6000 series has different uCode image size Also include the new sensitivity parameters needed by sensitivity algorithm.

2009-10-07iwlwifi: separate nic_config for different NICWey-Yi Guy
Different NIC has different requirements for configuration. Currently all 5000 series hardware and later share the same configuration function even though they do not need the same configurations. Fix this by separating the needed configuration actions for each hardware model. .5000 series: L1-ASPM H/W bug work-around configure radio write CSR_HW_IF_CONFIG_REG for uCode use work-around for NIC get stuck after early PCIe power off .1000 series: write CSR_HW_IF_CONFIG_REG for uCode use setting digital SVR for 1000 card to 1.32V .6000 series: configure radio write CSR_HW_IF_CONFIG_REG for uCode use write CSR_GP_DRIVER_REG to indicate radio sku Signed-off-by: Wey-Yi Guy <wey-yi.w.guy@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Reinette Chatre <reinette.chatre@intel.com> Signed-off-by: John W.
