2009-09-28iwlwifi: fix 3945 ucode info retrieval after failureReinette Chatre
When hardware or uCode problem occurs driver captures significant information from device to enable debugging. The format of this information is different between 3945 and 4965 and later devices, yet currently the 3945 uses the 4965 and later format. Fix this by adding a new library call that is initialized to the correct formatting routine based on device. This moves the iwlagn event and error log handling back to iwl-agn.c to make it part of iwlagn module. Also remove the 3945 sysfs file that triggers dump of event log - there is already a debugfs file that can do it for all drivers.

2009-09-14iwlwifi: disable powersave for 4965Johannes Berg
There's a bug in 4965 powersave that appears to be related to the way it keeps track of its data during sleep, but we haven't found it yet. Due to that, using powersave may spontaneously cause the device to SYSASSERT when transitioning from sleep to wake. Therefore, disable powersave for 4965, until (if ever, unfortunately) we can identify and fix the problem. Cf. http://bugzilla.intellinuxwireless.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1982 which was closed, but now has re-appeared with IDLE mode, which probably means we never really fixed it.

2009-08-31iwlwifi: use iwl_hwrate_get_mac80211_idx where appropriateDaniel C Halperin
For HT packets, mac80211 expects the rate_idx to be an MCS number, which is the lower byte of rate_n_flags. However, iwl_hwrate_to_plcp_idx takes the MCS number and reduces it down to the range 0-8 (6 to 60 Mbps), removing the bits that signify multiply streams, HT40 Duplicate mode, or unequal modulation. This version is used for various internal purposes through the driver. Add the function iwl_hwrate_get_mac80211_idx, an alternate version which takes the rate and the band and returns the mac80211 index (MCS, for HT packets, and PLCP rate, for legacy packets).

2009-08-28iwlwifi: fix ICT irq table endiannessJohannes Berg
The ICT IRQ table is a set of __le32 values, not u32 values, so when reading it we need to take into account that it has to be converted to CPU endianness.

2009-08-20mac80211: allow configure_filter callback to sleepJohannes Berg
Over time, a whole bunch of drivers have come up with their own scheme to delay the configure_filter operation to a workqueue. To be able to simplify things, allow configure_filter to sleep, and add a new prepare_multicast callback that drivers that need the multicast address list implement. This new callback must be atomic, but most drivers either don't care or just calculate a hash which can be done atomically and then uploaded to the hardware non-atomically. A cursory look suggests that at76c50x-usb, ar9170, mwl8k (which is actually very broken now), rt2x00, wl1251, wl1271 and zd1211 should make use of this new capability.

2009-08-20iwlwifi: fix erroneous use of iwl_rx_packet.len as a lengthDaniel C Halperin
The field called 'len' in struct iwl_rx_packet is in fact not just a length field but also includes some flags from the flow handler. In several places throughout the driver, this causes incorrect values to be interpreted as lengths when the field is improperly masked. In most situations the improper use is for debugging output, and simply results in an erroneous message, such as: [551933.070224] ieee80211 phy0: I iwl_rx_statistics Statistics notification received (480 vs -1367342620). which should read '(480 vs 484)'. In at least one case this could case bad things to happen: void iwl_rx_pm_debug_statistics_notif(struct iwl_priv *priv, struct iwl_rx_mem_buffer *rxb) { struct iwl_rx_packet *pkt = (struct iwl_rx_packet *)rxb->skb->data; IWL_DEBUG_RADIO(priv, "Dumping %d bytes of unhandled " "notification for %s:\n", le32_to_cpu(pkt->len), get_cmd_string(pkt->hdr.cmd)); iwl_print_hex_dump(priv, IWL_DL_RADIO, pkt->u.raw, le32_to_cpu(pkt->len) ); } EXPORT_SYMBOL(iwl_rx_pm_debug_statistics_notif); Given the rampant misuse of this field without proper masking throughout the driver (every use but one), this patch renames the field from 'len' to 'len_n_flags' to reduce confusion. It also adds the proper masking when this field is used as a length value.

2009-08-14iwlwifi: automatically adjust sleep levelJohannes Berg
Depending on required latency requested by pm_qos (via mac80211) we can automatically adjust the sleep state. Also, mac80211 has a user-visible dynamic sleep feature where we are supposed to stay awake after sending/receiving frames to better receive response frames to our packets, this can be integrated into the sleep command. Currently, and this patch doesn't change that yet, we default to using sleep level 1 if PS is enabled. With a module parameter to iwlcore, automatic adjustment to changing network latency requirements can be enabled -- this isn't yet the default due to requiring more testing. The goal is to enable automatic adjustment and then go into the deepest possible sleep state possible depending on the networking latency requirements. This patch does, however, enable IEEE80211_HW_SUPPORTS_DYNAMIC_PS to avoid the double-timer (one in software and one in the device) when transmitting -- the exact timeout may be ignored but that is not of big concern. Note also that we keep the hard-coded power indices around for thermal throttling -- the specification of that calls for using the specified power levels. Those can also be selected in debugfs to allow easier testing of such parameters.

2009-08-14iwlwifi: revert uCode Alive notification with timeoutReinette Chatre
commit "iwlwifi: uCode Alive notification with timeout" introduced a more reliable mechanism for ucode loading. Unfortunately we hit a problem with it frequently enough to make a 4965 unusable. The problem can be seen in debug log below. What this code attempts is to set runtime ucode up to load, start a timer to wait for the alive response from runtime ucode, and if it times out it tries again. As can be seen below we receive the alive response and wake the waiting task _before_ the tasks starts waiting. The task thus times out as the alive response is not received while it is waiting for it and it restarts the device. This starts the cycle all over again.

2009-08-03cfg80211: fix regression on beacon world roaming featureLuis R. Rodriguez
A regression was added through patch a4ed90d6: "cfg80211: respect API on orig_flags on channel for beacon hint" We did indeed respect _orig flags but the intention was not clearly stated in the commit log. This patch fixes firmware issues picked up by iwlwifi when we lift passive scan of beaconing restrictions on channels its EEPROM has been configured to always enable. By doing so though we also disallowed beacon hints on devices registering their wiphy with custom world regulatory domains enabled, this happens to be currently ath5k, ath9k and ar9170. The passive scan and beacon restrictions on those devices would never be lifted even if we did find a beacon and the hardware did support such enhancements when world roaming. Since Johannes indicates iwlwifi firmware cannot be changed to allow beacon hinting we set up a flag now to specifically allow drivers to disable beacon hints for devices which cannot use them. We enable the flag on iwlwifi to disable beacon hints and by default enable it for all other drivers. It should be noted beacon hints lift passive scan flags and beacon restrictions when we receive a beacon from an AP on any 5 GHz non-DFS channels, and channels 12-14 on the 2.4 GHz band. We don't bother with channels 1-11 as those channels are allowed world wide. This should fix world roaming for ath5k, ath9k and ar9170, thereby improving scan time when we receive the first beacon from any AP, and also enabling beaconing operation (AP/IBSS/Mesh) on cards which would otherwise not be allowed to do so. Drivers not using custom regulatory stuff (wiphy_apply_custom_regulatory()) were not affected by this as the orig_flags for the channels would have been cleared upon wiphy registration. I tested this with a world roaming ath5k card. Cc: Jouni Malinen <jouni.malinen@atheros.com> Signed-off-by: Luis R.

Part 1 of Thermal Throttling Management - Thermal Throttling feature is used to put NIC into low power state when driver detect the Radio temperature reach pre-defined threshold Two Thermal Throttling Management Methods; this patch introduce the Legacy Thermal Management: IWL_TI_0: normal temperature, system power state IWL_TI_1: high temperature detect, low power state IWL_TI_2: higher temperature detected, lower power state IWL_TI_CT_KILL: critical temperature detected, lowest power state Once get into CT_KILL state, uCode go into sleep, driver will stop all the active queues, then move to IWL_TI_CT_KILL state; also set up 5 seconds timer to toggle CSR flag, uCode wake up upon CSR flag change, then measure the temperature. If temperature is above CT_KILL exit threshold, uCode go backto sleep; if temperature is below CT_KILL exit threshold, uCode send Card State Notification response with appropriate CT_KILL status flag, and uCode remain awake, Driver receive Card State Notification Response and update the card temperature to the CT_KILL exit threshold.

2009-07-27iwlwifi: critical temperature enter/exit conditionWey-Yi Guy
If advance thermal throttling is used the driver need to pass both "enter" and "exit" temperature to uCode. Using different critical temperature threshold for legacy and advance thermal throttling management based on the type of thermal throttling method is used except 1000. For 1000, it use advance thermal throttling critical temperature threshold, but with legacy thermal management implementation until ucode has the necessary implementations in place.

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.

2009-07-24iwlwifi: uCode Alive notification with timeoutWey-Yi Guy
Wait for REPLY_ALIVE notification from init and runtime uCode. based on the type of REPLY_ALIVE, different status bit will be set to wake up the queue: STATUS_INIT_UCODE_ALIVE for init uCode STATUS_RT_UCODE_ALIVE for runtime uCode. If timeout, attempt to download the failing uCode image again. This can only be done for the init ucode images of all iwlagn devices and the runtime ucode image of the 5000 series and up. If there is a problem with the 4965 runtime ucode coming up we restart the interface and thus trigger a new download of the init ucode also.
