2008-01-28ath5k: always extend rx timestamp with tsfBruno Randolf
always extend the rx timestamp with the local TSF, since this information is also needed for proper IBSS merging. this is done in the tasklet for now, maybe has to be moved to the interrupt handler like in madwifi. drivers/net/wireless/ath5k/base.c: Changes-licensed-under: 3-Clause-BSD Signed-off-by: Bruno Randolf <bruno@thinktube.com> Signed-off-by: John W.

2008-01-28ath5k: configure backoff for IBSS beacon queueBruno Randolf
in "11.1.2.2 Beacon generation in an IBSS" the IEEE802.11 standard says, each STA should... "b) Calculate a random delay uniformly distributed in the range between zero and twice aCWmin × aSlotTime,". configure cwmin and cwmax of the beacon queue in IBSS mode according to this. unfortunately beacon backoff does not work reliably yet, so i suspect we have a problem somewhere else, since the same settings (and similar beacon timer configuration) work for madwifi. drivers/net/wireless/ath5k/base.c: Changes-licensed-under: 3-Clause-BSD Signed-off-by: Bruno Randolf <bruno@thinktube.com> Signed-off-by: John W.

2008-01-28ath5k: use SWBA to detect IBSS HW mergesBruno Randolf
use SWBA (software beacon alert) interrupts to keep track of the next beacon time und check if a HW merge (automatic TSF update) has happened on every received beacon with the same BSSID. this is necessary because the atheros hardware will silently update the local TSF in IBSS mode, but not its beacon timers. if the TSF is ahead of the beacon timers no beacons are sent until the timers wrap around (typically after about 1 minute). this solution is not very nice, since we have to look into every beacon, but there is apparently no other way to detect HW merges. drivers/net/wireless/ath5k/base.c: Changes-licensed-under: 3-Clause-BSD drivers/net/wireless/ath5k/base.h: Changes-licensed-under: 3-Clause-BSD Signed-off-by: Bruno Randolf <bruno@thinktube.com> Signed-off-by: John W.

2008-01-28ath5k: better beacon timer calculationBruno Randolf
update ath5k_beacon_update_timers() for better beacon timer calculation in a variety of situations. most important is the possibility to call it with the timestamp of a received beacon, when we detected that a HW merge has happened and we need to reconfigure the beacon timers based on that. we call this from the mac80211 callback reset_tsf now instead of beacon_update, and there will be more use of it in the next patch. drivers/net/wireless/ath5k/base.c: Changes-licensed-under: 3-Clause-BSD Signed-off-by: Bruno Randolf <bruno@thinktube.com> Signed-off-by: John W.

2008-01-28b43: Fix MAC control and microcode initMichael Buesch
This zeros out all microcode related memory before loading the microcode. This also fixes initialization of the MAC control register. The _only_ place where we overwrite the contents of the MAC control register is at the beginning of b43_chip_init(). All other places must do read() -> mask/set -> write() to not overwrite existing bits. This also adds a longer delay for waiting for the microcode to initialize itself. It seems that the current timeout is sufficient on all available devices, but there's no real reason why we shouldn't wait for up to one second. Slow embedded devices might exist. Better safe than sorry. Signed-off-by: Michael Buesch <mb@bu3sch.de> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>

2008-01-28igb: PCI-Express 82575 Gigabit Ethernet driverAuke Kok
We are pleased to announce a new Gigabit Ethernet product and its driver to the linux community. This product is the Intel(R) 82575 Gigabit Ethernet adapter family. Physical adapters will be available to the public soon. These adapters come in 2- and 4-port versions (copper PHY) currently. Other variants will be available later. The 82575 chipset supports significantly different features that warrant a new driver. The descriptor format is (just like the ixgbe driver) different. The device can use multiple MSI-X vectors and multiple queues for both send and receive. This allows us to optimize some of the driver code specifically as well compared to the e1000-supported devices. This version of the igb driver no lnger uses fake netdevices and incorporates napi_struct members for each ring to do the multi- queue polling. multi-queue is enabled by default and the driver supports NAPI mode only. All the namespace collisions should be gone in this version too. The register macro's have been condensed to improve readability.

2008-01-28iwlwifi: fix problem when rf_killswitch change during suspend/resumeZhu Yi
After we delay device initialization until interface up, there are more conditions for the hardware rf_kill switch states during suspend and resume. For example, before suspend we can have interface up or down, rf_kill enable or disable; before resume we can have rf_kill enable or disable. So there are totally 2^3 = 8 conditions to handle. This patch addressed this problem and makes sure every condition works correctly. This patch also merges the device suspend and resume handlers with the mac_start and mac_stop code since they are basically doing the same thing.

2008-01-28iwlwifi: delay firmware loading from pci_probe to network interface openZhu Yi
This patch moves the firmware loading (read firmware from disk and load it into the device SRAM) from pci_probe time to the first network interface open time. There are two reasons for doing this: 1. To support kernel buildin iwlwifi drivers. Because kernel initializes network devices subsystem before hard disk and SATA subsystem, it is impossible to get the firmware image from hard disk in the PCI probe handler. Thus delaying the firmware loading into the network interface open time is the way to go. Note, we only read the firmware image from hard disk the first time the interface is open. After this is succeeded, we cache the firmware image into the host memory. This is a performance gain when user open and close the interface multiple times and is necessary for device suspend and resume. 2. For better power saving. When the iwlwifi modules are loaded (or buildin the kernel) but the wireless network interface is not being used, it is a good practice the wireless device consumes as less power as possible. Unloading the firmware from the wireless device and unregister the driver's interrupt handler in the network interface close handler provides users a way to achieve this. User space network configuration tools (i.e NetworkManager) can also contribute here when it detects a wired cable is connected and close the wireless interface automatically. This patch also includes the pci_save/restore_state() fixed by Ian Schram upon the first version.
