2009-11-30mac80211: fix spurious delBA handlingJohannes Berg
Lennert Buytenhek noticed that delBA handling in mac80211 was broken and has remotely triggerable problems, some of which are due to some code shuffling I did that ended up changing the order in which things were done -- this was commit d75636ef9c1af224f1097941879d5a8db7cd04e5 Author: Johannes Berg <johannes@sipsolutions.net> Date: Tue Feb 10 21:25:53 2009 +0100 mac80211: RX aggregation: clean up stop session and other parts were already present in the original commit d92684e66091c0f0101819619b315b4bb8b5bcc5 Author: Ron Rindjunsky <ron.rindjunsky@intel.com> Date: Mon Jan 28 14:07:22 2008 +0200 mac80211: A-MPDU Tx add delBA from recipient support The first problem is that I moved a BUG_ON before various checks -- thereby making it possible to hit. As the comment indicates, the BUG_ON can be removed since the ampdu_action callback must already exist when the state is != IDLE. The second problem isn't easily exploitable but there's a race condition due to unconditionally setting the state to OPERATIONAL when a delBA frame is received, even when no aggregation session was ever initiated. All the drivers accept stopping the session even then, but that opens a race window where crashes could happen before the driver accepts it. Right now, a WARN_ON may happen with non-HT drivers, while the race opens only for HT drivers. For this case, there are two things necessary to fix it: 1) don't process spurious delBA frames, and be more careful about the session state; don't drop the lock 2) HT drivers need to be prepared to handle a session stop even before the session was really started -- this is true for all drivers (that support aggregation) but iwlwifi which can be fixed easily. The other HT drivers (ath9k and ar9170) are behaving properly already.

2009-08-31iwlwifi: remove incorrect uses of ieee80211_get_tx_rate to prevent TX stallDaniel C Halperin
Refactor and correct rate selection for outgoing transmitted packets. First, note that HT rates in the mac80211 rate table do not provide valid indices when ieee80211_get_tx_rate is called; the check to see if we could to abort a transmission early in iwl_tx_skb() would thus occasionally read invalid memory and occasionally stall transmission (if the erroneous byte was 0xff). We remove that code; the check wasn't valid anyway. Second, iwl_tx_cmd_build_rate() also called ieee80211_get_tx_rate to be used for sending management packets, which do not use the uCode station table. This patch refactors that function and adds comments to enhance legibility, replaces the call to ieee80211_get_tx_rate() with a direct lookup, and adds error handling in case the table entry is invalid.

2009-08-28iwlwifi: Make injection of non-broadcast frames work againGábor Stefanik
Commit 1ccb84d87d04df3c76cd4352fe69786d8c7cf016 by Wey-Yi Guy ("iwlwifi: clean up unused NL80211_IFTYPE_MONITOR for Monitor mode") broke injection of non-broadcast frames to unassociated stations (causing a SYSASSERT for all such injected frames), due to injected frames no longer automatically getting a broadcast station ID assigned. This patch restores the old behavior, fixing the aforementioned regression. Also, consistently check for IEEE80211_TX_CTL_INJECTED instead of iwl_is_monitor_mode in the TX path, as TX_CTL_INJECTED specifically means that a given packet is coming from a monitor interface, while iwl_is_monitor_mode only shows whether a monitor interface exists on the device.

2009-08-20iwlwifi: prevent read outside array boundsReinette Chatre
With EDCA and HCCA we have 16 potential tid values. This is accommodated by mac80211, but iwlwifi only supports EDCA. With this implementation it is thus possible for mac80211 to request a tid that will cause iwlwifi to read outside array bounds. A similar problem exists if traffic is received in an unsupported category. We add error checking to catch these situations.

2009-08-14iwlwifi: re-introduce per device debuggingReinette Chatre
Commit "iwlwifi: make debug level more user friendly" cleaned up the debug level handling. In doing so it created a single global debug level for all devices. Some setups do consits of more that one iwlwifi device and in these setups there is a requirement that debug levels should be unique per device. We now re-introduce the per device debugging while maintaining the cleanup effort of the previous patch. The maintain the global debug level and now introduce a per-device debug level that will be used if it (the per-device debug level) is set. The per-device debug level can be controlled via the debug_level sysfs file while the global debug level is controlled by the debug module parameter.

2009-07-27iwlwifi: fix up command sendingJohannes Berg
The current command sending in iwlwifi is a bit of a mess: 1) there is a struct, iwl_cmd, that contains both driver and device data in a single packed structure -- this is very confusing 2) the on-stack data and the command metadata share a structure by embedding the latter in the former, which is also rather confusing because it leads to weird unions and similarly odd constructs 3) each txq always has enough space for 256 commands, even if only 32 end up being used This patch fixes these things: 1) rename iwl_cmd to iwl_device_cmd and keep track of command metadata and device command separately, in two arrays in each tx queue 2) remove the 'meta' member from iwl_host_cmd and only put in the required members 3) allocate the cmd/meta arrays separately instead of embedding them into the txq structure Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes@sipsolutions.net> Signed-off-by: Reinette Chatre <reinette.chatre@intel.com> Signed-off-by: John W.

2009-07-27iwlwifi: fix TX queue raceJohannes Berg
I had a problem on 4965 hardware (well, probably other hardware too, but others don't survive my stress testing right now, unfortunately) where the driver was sending invalid commands to the device, but no such thing could be seen from the driver's point of view. I could reproduce this fairly easily by sending multiple TCP streams with iperf on different TIDs, though sometimes a single iperf stream was sufficient. It even happened with a single core, but I have forced preemption turned on. The culprit was a queue overrun, where we advanced the queue's write pointer over the read pointer. After careful analysis I've come to the conclusion that the cause is a race condition between iwlwifi and mac80211. mac80211, of course, checks whether the queue is stopped, before transmitting a frame. This effectively looks like this: lock(queues) if (stopped(queue)) { unlock(queues) return busy; } unlock(queues) ... <-- this place will be important there is some more code here drv_tx(frame) The driver, on the other hand, can stop and start queues, which does lock(queues) mark_running/stopped(queue) unlock(queues) [if marked running: wake up tasklet to send pending frames] Now, however, once the driver starts the queue, mac80211 can see that and end up at the marked place above, at which point for some reason the driver seems to stop the queue again (I don't understand that) and then we end up transmitting while the queue is actually full. Now, this shouldn't actually matter much, but for some reason I've seen it happen multiple times in a row and the queue actually overflows, at which point the queue bites itself in the tail and things go completely wrong. This patch fixes this by just dropping the packet should this have happened, and making the lock in iwlwifi cover everything so iwlwifi can't race against itself (dropping the lock there might make it more likely, but it did seem to happen without that too). Since we can't hold the lock across drv_tx() above, I see no way to fix this in mac80211, but I also don't understand why I haven't seen this before -- maybe I just never stress tested it this badly. With this patch, the device has survived many minutes of simultanously sending two iperf streams on different TIDs with combined throughput of about 60 Mbps.

2009-07-24iwlwifi: make debug level more user friendlyReinette Chatre
* Deprecate the "debug50" module parameter used to obtain 5000 series and up debugging. Replace it with "debug" module parameter to match with original driver and be consistent between them. The "debug50" module parameter can still be used, except that the module parameter is not writable in keeping with its previous state. We currently just mark it as "deprecated" and do not have it in the feature-removal-schedule. Some more cleanup of module parameters needs to be done and can then be entered together. * Only make "debug" module parameters visible if the driver is compiled with CONFIG_IWLWIFI_DEBUG. This will eliminate a lot of confusion where users think they have set debug flags but yet cannot see any debug output. * Make module parameters writable. This eliminates the need for the "debug_level" sysfs file, which can now also be deprecated and added to feature-removal-schedule. This file is in significant use though with many iwlwifi documents and text referring users to it. We can thus not take its removal lightly and keep it around. With iwlcore shared between iwlagn and iwl3945 we really do not need debug module parameters for each but can instead have one debug module parameter for the iwlcore module. The same issue is here as with the sysfs file - a lot of iwlwifi documentation and text (like bug reports) rely on iwlagn and iwl3945 having this module parameter, so changing this to a module parameter of iwlcore will have significant impact and we do not do this for that reason. One consequence of this patch is that if a user is running a system with both 3945 and later hardware then the setting of the one module parameter will affect the value of the other. The likelihood of this seems low - and even if this setup is present it does not seem like an issue for both modules to run with the same debug level.

2009-04-21iwlwifi: DMA fixesReinette Chatre
A few issues wrt DMA were uncovered when using the driver with swiotlb. - driver should not use memory after it has been mapped - iwl3945's RX queue management cannot use all of iwlagn because the size of the RX buffer is different. Revert back to using iwl3945 specific routines that map/unmap memory. - no need to "dma_syn_single_range_for_cpu" followed by pci_unmap_single, we can just call pci_unmap_single initially - only map the memory area that will be used by device. this is especially relevant to the mapping of iwl_cmd. we should not map the entire structure because the meta data at the beginning of structure contains the address to be used later for unmapping. If the address to be used for unmapping is stored in mapped data it creates a problem. - ensure that _if_ memory needs to be modified after it is mapped that we call _sync_single_for_cpu first, and then release it back to device with _sync_single_for_device - we mapped the wrong length of data for host commands, with mapped length differing with length provided to device, fix that.

2009-03-27mac80211/iwlwifi: move virtual A-MDPU queue bookkeeping to iwlwifiJohannes Berg
This patch removes all the virtual A-MPDU-queue bookkeeping from mac80211. Curiously, iwlwifi already does its own bookkeeping, so it doesn't require much changes except where it needs to handle starting and stopping the queues in mac80211. To handle the queue stop/wake properly, we rewrite the software queue number for aggregation frames and internally to iwlwifi keep track of the queues that map into the same AC queue, and only talk to mac80211 about the AC queue. The implementation requires calling two new functions, iwl_stop_queue and iwl_wake_queue instead of the mac80211 counterparts.

2009-02-27iwlwifi: dma mapping read and write changesFenghua Yu
When iwlwifi runs on IOMMU, IOMMU generates a lot of PTE write faults because PTE write bit is not set on some of PTE's. This is because iwlwifi driver calls DMA mapping with PCI_DMA_TODEVICE which is read only in mapping PTE. But iwlwifi device actually writes to the mapped page to update its contents. This issue is not exposed in swiotlb. But VT-d hardware can capture this fault and stop the fault transaction. The iwl TX command contains a scratch field that is updated by uCode to indicate retry counts. For 5000 series the patch is required also for regular frames, but this patch does not differenciate.

2009-01-29iwlwifi: iwl_tx_queue_alloc : fix warning in printk formattingWinkler, Tomas
This patch fix compilation warning in printk formatting iwl_tx_queue_alloc function. Cleanup the code a bit on the way. Signed-off-by: Tomas Winkler <tomas.winkler@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Reinette Chatre <reinette.chatre@intel.com> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>
2009-01-29iwl3945: Use iwlcore TX queue management routinesSamuel Ortiz
By adding an additional hw_params (tfd_size) and a new iwl_lib ops (txq_init), we can now use the iwlcore TX queue management routines. We had to add a new hw_params because we need to allocate the right DMA buffer for TFDs, and those have a different sizes depending if you're on 3945 or agn.

2009-01-29iwlwifi: make iwl_tx_queue->tfds void*Samuel Ortiz
Instead of having both tfds and tfds39, we can just have a void *tfds. It makes the tx_queue structure nicer, and the code cleaner. It also helps with further TX queues management code merging.

2009-01-29iwl3945: Use iwl-hcmd host command routinesSamuel Ortiz
With the previously added tfd related ops, we can now use the iwl-tx.c host command enqueue routine. Since the 3945 host command specific routines are identical to the agn ones, we can just remove them from the 3945 code.

2009-01-29iwlwifi: Add TFD library operationsSamuel Ortiz
The TFD structures for 3945 and agn HWs are fundamentally different. We thus need to define operations for attaching and freeing them. This will allow us to share a fair amount of code (cmd and tx queue related) between both drivers.
