2014-06-07ath9k: protect tid->sched checkStanislaw Gruszka
[ Upstream commit 21f8aaee0c62708654988ce092838aa7df4d25d8 ] We check tid->sched without a lock taken on ath_tx_aggr_sleep(). That is race condition which can result of doing list_del(&tid->list) twice (second time with poisoned list node) and cause crash like shown below: [424271.637220] BUG: unable to handle kernel paging request at 00100104 [424271.637328] IP: [<f90fc072>] ath_tx_aggr_sleep+0x62/0xe0 [ath9k] ...

2014-03-23ath9k: Fix ETSI compliance for AR9462 2.0Sujith Manoharan
commit b3050248c167871ca52cfdb2ce78aa2460249346 upstream. The minimum CCA power threshold values have to be adjusted for existing cards to be in compliance with new regulations. Newer cards will make use of the values obtained from EEPROM, support for this was added earlier. To make sure that cards that are already in use and don't have proper values in EEPROM, do not violate regulations, use the initvals instead.

2014-02-22ath9k_htc: make ->sta_rc_update atomic for most callsStanislaw Gruszka
commit 2fa4cb905605c863bf570027233af7afd8149ae4 upstream. sta_rc_update() callback must be atomic, hence we can not take mutexes or do other operations, which can sleep in ath9k_htc_sta_rc_update(). I think we can just return from ath9k_htc_sta_rc_update(), if it is called without IEEE80211_RC_SUPP_RATES_CHANGED bit. That will help with scheduling while atomic bug for most cases (except mesh and IBSS modes). For mesh and IBSS I do not see other solution like creating additional workqueue, because sending firmware command require us to sleep, but this can be done in additional patch.

2014-01-09ath9k: Fix interrupt handling for the AR9002 familySujith Manoharan
commit 73f0b56a1ff64e7fb6c3a62088804bab93bcedc2 upstream. This patch adds a driver workaround for a HW issue. A race condition in the HW results in missing interrupts, which can be avoided by a read/write with the ISR register. All chips in the AR9002 series are affected by this bug - AR9003 and above do not have this problem.

Similar to a race condition that exists in the tx path, the hardware might re-read the 'next' pointer of a descriptor of the last completed frame. This only affects non-EDMA (pre-AR93xx) devices.

2013-09-07ath9k_htc: Restore skb headroom when returning skb to mac80211Helmut Schaa
commit d2e9fc141e2aa21f4b35ee27072d84e9aa6e2ba0 upstream. ath9k_htc adds padding between the 802.11 header and the payload during TX by moving the header. When handing the frame back to mac80211 for TX status handling the header is not moved back into its original position. This can result in a too small skb headroom when entering ath9k_htc again (due to a soft retransmission for example) causing an skb_under_panic oops. Fix this by moving the 802.11 header back into its original position before returning the frame to mac80211 as other drivers like rt2x00 or ath5k do.

2013-07-25ath9k: Fix noisefloor calibrationSujith Manoharan
commit 696df78509d1f81b651dd98ecdc1aecab616db6b upstream. The commits, "ath9k: Fix regression in channelwidth switch at the same channel" "ath9k: Fix invalid noisefloor reading due to channel update" attempted to fix noisefloor calibration when a channel switch happens due to HT20/HT40 bandwidth change. This is causing invalid readings resulting in messages like: "ath: phy16: NF[0] (-45) > MAX (-95), correcting to MAX". This results in an incorrect noise being used initially for reporting the signal level of received packets, until NF calibration is done and the history buffer is updated via the ANI timer, which happens much later. When a bandwidth change happens, it is appropriate to reset the internal history data for the channel. Do this correctly in the reset() routine by checking the "chanmode" variable.

Almost all the DMA issues which have plagued ath9k (in station mode) for years are related to PS. Disabling PS usually "fixes" the user's connection stablility. Reports of DMA problems are still trickling in and are sitting in the kernel bugzilla. Until the PS code in ath9k is given a thorough review, disbale it by default.

2013-05-24ath9k_hw: improve performance for AR934x v1.3+Felix Fietkau
AR934x v1.3 no longer needs the DCU backoff reduction workaround for preventing rx overruns, but in turn needs the number of usable Tx buffers to be reduced slightly. Signed-off-by: Felix Fietkau <nbd@openwrt.org> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>
2013-05-24ath9k_hw: fix host interface reset on AR934xFelix Fietkau
If a local bus timeout has been detected, the host interface needs to be reset to clear the errors. AR934x uses a different synchronous interrupt bit to indicate this, so the check needs to be fixed.

2013-05-22ath9k: prevent aggregation session deadlocksFelix Fietkau
Waiting for all subframes of an existing aggregation session to drain before allowing mac80211 to start a new one is fragile and deadlocks caused by this behavior have been observed. Since mac80211 has proper synchronization for aggregation session start/stop handling, a better approach to session handling is to simply allow mac80211 to start a new session at any time. This requires changing the code to discard any packets outside of the BlockAck window in the A-MPDU software retry code. This patch implements the above and also simplifies the code.

2013-05-17ath9k: fix draining aggregation tid buffersFelix Fietkau
After a tx attempt, an A-MPDU subframe can still have fi->retries at 0 (if the retry count wasn't incremented due to powersave). In that case it is still tracked as part of the block ack window, so when draining the tid queue, its sequence number needs to be cleared from the pending frame bitmap.

2013-05-17ath9k: fix rate handling/reportingFelix Fietkau
This patch fixes some issues introduced in the rate control API rework. When not running aggregation, copy bf->rates into info->control.rates before applying the rate control status to it. In ath_lookup_rate, the rates need to be pulled from bf->rates, not the tx info. Signed-off-by: Felix Fietkau <nbd@openwrt.org> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>
2013-05-17ath9k: fix aggregation stop/flush handlingFelix Fietkau
When aggregation stop is requested, don't run the mac80211 aggregation stop callback yet, while the session is still blocked. Also, when aggregation flush is requested, don't run the callback at all.

2013-04-23ath9k: Use lockless variants for the RX fifo queueSujith Manoharan
The RX fifo can be accessed from the common tasklet or it can be reaped/cleaned when RX is stopped, which is done when doing a reset or channel change - this happens in process context. Since it is ensured that there are no pending tasklets when stopping RX and cleaning the FIFO, there is no need to use SKB queue functions which take internal locks.
