2009-11-23iwlwifi: by default, dump entire sram data portionWey-Yi Guy
For "sram" debugfs file, if user did not specify the offset and length, dump the entire data portion of sram by default. Data portion is 0x800000 - 0x80ffff, but the actual data size is known to the driver from the ucode file.

2009-11-23iwlwifi: separate IO tracingJohannes Berg
Since IO tracing is usually not needed and generates a lot of data, separate it into its own trace system so that we can always enable iwlwifi:* and not have to worry about getting too much data. If IO tracing is then really needed we can enable iwlwifi_io:* in addition and get that data.

2009-11-23iwlwifi: reset led_tpt when clear tx/rx traffic byte countsWey-Yi Guy
LED blink rate is based on the traffic load, when tx/rx traffic counts got reset, we also need to reset the led_tpt to prevent incorrect blink rate being calculated. Merge both clear_tx_statistics() and clear_rx_statistics() into single clear_traffic_statistics() function, when reset the traffic byte counts, both tx and rx need to be reset at the same time, to make sure calculated the correct led blink rate.

2009-11-23iwlagn: Use iwl_write8() for CSR_INT_COALESCING registerBen Cahill
CSR_INT_COALESCING previously had only one, but now has two single-byte fields. With only one single-byte field (lowest order byte) it was okay to write via iwl_write32(), but now with two, an iwl_write32() to the lower order field clobbers the other field (odd-address CSR_INT_PERIODIC_REG, offset 0x5), and an iwl_write32() to CSR_INT_PERIODIC_REG could clobber the lowest byte of the next-higher register (CSR_INT, offset 0x8). Fortunately, no bad side effects have been produced by the iwl_write32() usage, due to order of execution (low order byte was always written before higher order byte), and the fact that writing "0" to the low byte of the next higher register has no effect (only action is when writing "1"s). Nonetheless, this cleans up the accesses so no bad side effects might occur in the future, if execution order changes, or more bit fields get added to CSR_INT_COALESCING. Add some comments regarding periodic interrupt usage. Signed-off-by: Ben Cahill <ben.m.cahill@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Reinette Chatre <reinette.chatre@intel.com> Signed-off-by: John W.

2009-11-23b43: Rewrite DMA Tx status handling sanity checksMichael Buesch
This rewrites the error handling policies in the TX status handler. It tries to be error-tolerant as in "try hard to not crash the machine". It won't recover from errors (that are bugs in the firmware or driver), because that's impossible. However, it will return a more or less useful error message and bail out. It also tries hard to use rate-limited messages to not flood the syslog in case of a failure. Signed-off-by: Michael Buesch <mb@bu3sch.de> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>

2009-11-19mac80211: request TX status where neededJohannes Berg
Right now all frames mac80211 hands to the driver have the IEEE80211_TX_CTL_REQ_TX_STATUS flag set to request TX status. This isn't really necessary, only the injected frames need TX status (the latter for hostapd) so move setting this flag. The rate control algorithms also need TX status, but they don't require it. Also, rt2x00 uses that bit for its own purposes and seems to require it being set for all frames, but that can be fixed in rt2x00. This doesn't really change anything for any drivers but in the future drivers using hw-rate control may opt to not report TX status for frames that don't have the IEEE80211_TX_CTL_REQ_TX_STATUS flag set.

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.
