2009-11-18mac80211: convert aggregation to operate on vifs/stasJohannes Berg
The entire aggregation code currently operates on the hw pointer and station addresses, but that needs to change to make stations purely per-vif; As one step preparing for that make the aggregation code callable with the station, or by the combination of virtual interface and station address.

2009-11-18iwlwifi: handle unicast PS bufferingJohannes Berg
Using the new mac80211 functionality, this makes iwlwifi handle unicast PS buffering correctly. The device works like this: * when a station goes to sleep, the microcode notices this and marks the station as asleep * when the station is marked asleep, the microcode refuses to transmit to the station and rejects all frames queued to it with the failure status code TX_STATUS_FAIL_DEST_PS (a previous patch handled this correctly) * when we need to send frames to the station _although_ it is asleep, we need to tell the ucode how many, and this is asynchronous with sending so we cannot just send the frames, we need to wait for all other frames to be flushed, and then update the counter before sending out the poll response frames. This is handled partially in the driver and partially in mac80211. In order to do all this correctly, we need to * keep track of how many frames are pending for each associated client station (avoid doing it for other stations to avoid the atomic ops) * tell mac80211 that we driver-block the PS status while there are still frames pending on the queues, and once they are all rejected (due to the dest sta being in PS) unblock mac80211 Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes@sipsolutions.net> Signed-off-by: Reinette Chatre <reinette.chatre@intel.com> Signed-off-by: John W.

2009-11-11iwlwifi: fix FIFO vs. queue confusionJohannes Berg
When I added that code setting the swq_id, I evidently did not understand the distinction between FIFO and TX queue yet and added code to compare a queue ID and a FIFO number, which is bogus. However, the code there need not be this specific, it can just set all queues to the identity mapping which will be overwritten by the aggregation queue code. As a bit of defensive coding, don't assign an swq_id to the command queue so that if we ever use it for frames we notice quickly.

2009-10-27iwlwifi: use paged RxZhu Yi
This switches the iwlwifi driver to use paged skb from linear skb for Rx buffer. So that it relieves some Rx buffer allocation pressure for the memory subsystem. Currently iwlwifi (4K for 3945) requests 8K bytes for Rx buffer. Due to the trailing skb_shared_info in the skb->data, alloc_skb() will do the next order allocation, which is 16K bytes. This is suboptimal and more likely to fail when the system is under memory usage pressure. Switching to paged Rx skb lets us allocate the RXB directly by alloc_pages(), so that only order 1 allocation is required. It also adjusts the area spin_lock (with IRQ disabled) protected in the tasklet because tasklet guarentees to run only on one CPU and the new unprotected code can be preempted by the IRQ handler. This saves us from spawning another workqueue to make skb_linearize/__pskb_pull_tail happy (which cannot be called in hard irq context). Finally, mac80211 doesn't support paged Rx yet. So we linearize the skb for all the management frames and software decryption or defragmentation required data frames before handed to mac80211. For all the other frames, we __pskb_pull_tail 64 bytes in the linear area of the skb for mac80211 to handle them properly. Signed-off-by: Zhu Yi <yi.zhu@intel.com> Signed-off-by: John W.

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.

2009-08-31iwlwifi: 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.

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.

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.

iwl_cmd_queue_free needs to be used to free up the cmd_queue, as TFD slots for cmd_queue and tx_queue are different. Signed-off-by: Abhijeet Kolekar <abhijeet.kolekar@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Reinette Chatre <reinette.chatre@intel.com> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>
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.

2009-01-29iwl3945: 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.
