2008-08-01rt2500pci: restoring missing linePeter Chubb
In kernel version 2.6.26-rc9 my wireless LAN card worked; but in the released 2.6.26, my RaLink rt2500 card wouldn't associate. Git-bisect led me to this patch: 61486e0f68d1f8966c09b734566a187d42d65c54 rt2x00: Remove ieee80211_tx_control argument from write_tx_desc() I believe that there is a problem with that patch --- it (inadvertantly) removes an extra line of code, that used to set the DATABYTE_COUNT field. This patch reinstates that line, and with it my card works again. Signed-off-by: Peter Chubb <peterc@gelato.unsw.edu.au> Acked-by: Ivo van Doorn <IvDoorn@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: John W.

2008-07-14rt2x00: Reorganize beacon handlingIvo van Doorn
With the new beacon handling from mac80211 we can reorganize the beacon handling in rt2x00 as well. This patch will move the function to the TX handlers, and move all duplicate code into rt2x00queue.c. After this change the descriptor helper functions from rt2x00queue.c no longer need to be exported outside of rt2x00lib and can be declared static.

2008-07-14mac80211: revamp beacon configurationJohannes Berg
This patch changes mac80211's beacon configuration handling to never pass skbs to the driver directly but rather always require the driver to use ieee80211_beacon_get(). Additionally, it introduces "change flags" on the config_interface() call to enable drivers to figure out what is changing. Finally, it removes the beacon_update() driver callback in favour of having IBSS beacon delivered by ieee80211_beacon_get() as well.

2008-07-09rt2x00: Disable synchronization during initializationIvo van Doorn
As soon as init_registers() was called, the rt2400/rt2500 would start raising beacondone interrupts. Since this is highly premature since no beacons were provided yet, we should initialize the synchronization register to 0. This will make all drivers initialize it to 0 regardless if they are raising beacondone interrupts or not, since it only makes sense to have it completely disabled.

2008-06-26rt2x00: Cleanup symbol exportsIvo van Doorn
With a bit of code moving to rt2x00lib within the TX and RX paths we can now remove a lot of EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL() statements. This cleans up the interface between rt2x00lib and the drivers and has the additional benefit that rt2x00pci and rt2x00usb are trimmed down in size as well since they have less to do.

2008-06-26rt2x00: Replace statically allocated DMA buffers with mapped skb's.Gertjan van Wingerde
The current PCI drivers require a lot of pre-allocated DMA buffers. Reduce this by using dynamically mapped skb's (using pci_map_single) instead of the pre- allocated DMA buffers that are allocated at device start-up time. At the same time move common RX path code into rt2x00lib from rt2x00pci and rt2x00usb, as the RX paths now are now almost the same.

At the same time clean up the device administration a bit, by storing a pointer to struct device instead of a void pointer that is dependent on the type of device.

2008-06-14rt2x00: Don't kick TX queue after each frameIvo van Doorn
TX queues shouldn't be kicked after each frame that is put into the queue. This could cause problems during RTS and CTS-to-self as well as with fragmentation. In all those cases you want all frames to be send out in a single burst. Off course we shouldn't let the queue fill up entirely, thus we introduce a 10% threshold which, when reached, will force the frames to be send out regardless of the frame. In addition we should prevent queues to become full in such a way that the tx() handler can fail. Instead of stopping the queue when it is full, we should stop it when it is below the threshold.

This patch converts mac80211 and all drivers to have transmit information and status in skb->cb rather than allocating extra memory for it and copying all the data around.

Split rt2x00lib_write_tx_desc() up into a TX descriptor initializor and TX descriptor writer. This split is required to properly allow mac80211 to move its tx_control structure into the skb->cb array. The rt2x00queue_create_tx_descriptor() function will read all tx control information and convert it into a rt2x00 TX descriptor information structure. After that function is complete, we have all information we needed from the tx control structure and are free to start writing into the skb->cb array for our own purposes. rt2x00queue_write_tx_descriptor() will be in charge of really sending the TX descriptor to the hardware and kicking the TX queue.

feature. With the integration of the mac80211 multiqueue patches it has become possible that the mac80211 layer modifies the number of TX queues that is stored inside the ieee80211_hw structure, especially when multi-queue is not selected. The rt2x00 drivers are not well suited to handle that situation, as they allocate the queue structures before mac80211 has modified the number of queues it is going to use, and also expect the number of allocated queues to match the hardware implementation. Hence, ensure that rt2x00 maintains by itself the number of queues that the hardware supports, and, at the same time, making is not dependent on the preservation of contents inside a mac80211 structure.

2008-05-21rt2x00: Fix TX status reportingIvo van Doorn
The tx_status enumeration was broken since the introduction of rt61pci. That driver uses different values to report the status of the tx action. This would lead to frames that were reported as success but actually failed to be send out, or frames that were neither successfull or failure which were reported as failure. Fix this by change the TX status reporting and more explicitely check for failure or success. Note that a third possibility is added "unknown". Not all hardware (USB) can report the actual TX status, for rt61pci some frames will receive this status because the TXdone handler is never called for those frames. This unknown will now be handled as neither success or failure, so we no longer increment the failure counter while this conclusion could not be determined from the real status of the frame.

2008-05-14mac80211: use hardware flags for signal/noise unitsBruno Randolf
trying to clean up the signal/noise code. the previous code in mac80211 had confusing names for the related variables, did not have much definition of what units of signal and noise were provided and used implicit mechanisms from the wireless extensions. this patch introduces hardware capability flags to let the hardware specify clearly if it can provide signal and noise level values and which units it can provide. this also anticipates possible new units like RCPI in the future. for signal: IEEE80211_HW_SIGNAL_UNSPEC - unspecified, unknown, hw specific IEEE80211_HW_SIGNAL_DB - dB difference to unspecified reference point IEEE80211_HW_SIGNAL_DBM - dBm, difference to 1mW for noise we currently only have dBm: IEEE80211_HW_NOISE_DBM - dBm, difference to 1mW if IEEE80211_HW_SIGNAL_UNSPEC or IEEE80211_HW_SIGNAL_DB is used the driver has to provide the maximum value (max_signal) it reports in order for applications to make sense of the signal values. i tried my best to find out for each driver what it can provide and update it but i'm not sure (?) for some of them and used the more conservative guess in doubt. this can be fixed easily after this patch has been merged by changing the hardware flags of the driver.

The TO_DS filter does not only depend on the FIF_PROMISC_IN_BSS flag provided by mac80211, but also on the intf_ap_count count. This makes sense, since when Master mode is active, we should all frames that are send to the active AP (the device itself). This means that when an interface is added we should force the packet filter to be updated during the next mac80211 call of configure_filter() to make sure the intf_ap_count field is checked.

2008-03-13rt2x00: Fix rt2400pci signalIvo van Doorn
After sampling hundreds of RX frame descriptors, the results were conclusive: - The Ralink documentation regarding the SIGNAL and RSSI are wrong. It turns out that of the 5 BBR registers, we should not use BBR0 and BBR1 for SIGNAL and RSSI respectively, but actually BBR1 and BBR2. BBR0 does show values, but the exact meaning remains unclear, but they cannot be translated into a SIGNAL or RSSI field. BBR3, BBR4 and BBR5 are always 0, so their meaning is unknown. As it turns out, the reported SIGNAL is the PLCP value, this in contradiction to what was expected looking at rt2500pci which only reported the PLCP values for OFDM rates and bitrate values for CCK rates. This means we should let the driver raise the flag about the contents of the SIGNAL field so rt2x00lib can always do the right thing based on what the driver reports.

2008-03-13rt2x00: Only disable beaconing just before beacon updateIvo van Doorn
We should not write 0 to the beacon sync register during config_intf() since that will clear out the beacon interval and forces the beacon to be send out at the lowest interval. (reported by Mattias Nissler). The side effect of the same bug was that while working with multiple virtual AP interfaces a change for any of those interfaces would disable beaconing untill an beacon update was provided. This is resolved by only updating the TSF_SYNC value during config_intf(). In update_beacon() we disable beaconing temporarily to prevent fake beacons to be transmitted.

2008-02-29rt2x00: Add per-interface structureIvo van Doorn
Rework the interface handling. Delete the interface structure and replace it with a per-interface structure. This changes the way rt2x00 handles the active interface drastically. Copy ieee80211_bss_conf to the this rt2x00_intf structure during the bss_info_changed() callback function. This will allow us to reference it later, and removes the requirement for the device flag SHORT_PREAMBLE flag which is interface specific. Drivers receive the option to give the maximum number of virtual interfaces the device can handle. Virtual interface support: rt2400pci: 1 sta or 1 ap, * monitor interfaces rt2500pci: 1 sta or 1 ap, * monitor interfaces rt2500usb: 1 sta or 1 ap, * monitor interfaces rt61pci: 1 sta or 4 ap, * monitor interfaces rt73usb: 1 sta or 4 ap, * monitor interfaces At the moment none of the drivers support AP and STA interfaces simultaneously, this is a hardware limitation so future support will be very unlikely. Each interface structure receives its dedicated beacon entry, with this we can easily work with beaconing while multiple master mode interfaces are currently active. The configuration handlers for the MAC, BSSID and type are often called together since they all belong to the interface configuration. Merge the 3 configuration calls and cleanup the API between rt2x00lib and the drivers. While we are cleaning up the interface configuration anyway, we might as well clean up the configuration handler as well. Signed-off-by: Ivo van Doorn <IvDoorn@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: John W.

2008-02-29rt2x00: Queue handling overhaulIvo van Doorn
This introduces a big queue handling overhaul, this also renames "ring" to "queues". Move queue handling into rt2x00queue.c and the matching header, use Kerneldoc to improve rt2x00 library documentation. Access to the queues is now protected under a spinlock, this to prevent race conditions which could corrupt the indexing system of the queue. Each queue entry allocates x bytes for driver/device specific data, this cleans up the queue structure significantly and improves code readability. rt2500usb no longer needs 2 entries in the beacon queue to correctly send out the guardian byte. This is now handled in the entry specific structure. rt61 and rt73 now use the correct descriptor size for beacon frames, since this data is written into the registers not the entire TXD descriptor was used but instead of a subset of it named TXINFO.

While it is possible that the link tuner thread itself is the caller of the RX toggle (when using software antenna diversity). Signed-off-by: Ivo van Doorn <IvDoorn@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: John W.

2008-01-28mac80211: add unified BSS configurationJohannes Berg
This patch (based on Ron Rindjunsky's) creates a framework for a unified way to pass BSS configuration to drivers that require the information, e.g. for implementing power save mode. This patch introduces new ieee80211_bss_conf structure that is passed to the driver via the new bss_info_changed() callback when the BSS configuration changes. This new BSS configuration infrastructure adds the following new features: * drivers are notified of their association AID * drivers are notified of association status and replaces the erp_ie_changed() callback. The patch also does the relevant driver updates for the latter change.

2008-01-28rt2x00: Move init_txring and init_rxring into rt2x00libIvo van Doorn
Prior to enabling the radio rt2x00lib should go through all rings and for each entry should call the callback function init_txentry() and init_rxentry(). Signed-off-by: Ivo van Doorn <IvDoorn@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>
2008-01-28rt2x00: Determine MY_BSS from descriptorIvo van Doorn
Use the MY_BSS descriptor field to determine if the received frame belongs to the same BSS as the interface. This can be used by rxdone to determine if the frame should be updated or not. Signed-off-by: Ivo van Doorn <IvDoorn@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>
2008-01-28rt2x00: Cleanup write_tx_desc() argumentsIvo van Doorn
Send the skb structure with write_tx_desc() and use the skbdesc structure to read all information about the frame. This saves several arguments in the function definition and it is easier to send more information later as well. Signed-off-by: Ivo van Doorn <IvDoorn@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: John W.
