Gertjan van Wingerde 736e3acadc rt2x00: Fix pointer errors.
Fix some pointer errors in the various calls to memcpy, memset and memmove.

Although none of these errors are fatal (the expression used now results in
the same pointer value) it is better to use the proper expression.
All errors are having to deal with arrays.

Ivo van Doorn 0b7fde54f9 rt2x00: Protect queue control with mutex
Add wrapper functions in rt2x00queue.c to
start & stop queues. This control must be protected
using a mutex.

Queues can also be paused which will halt the flow
of packets between the driver and mac80211. This doesn't
require a mutex protection.

Ivo van Doorn dbba306f2a rt2x00: Reorganize queue callback functions
As part of the queue refactoring, change the queue callback
function names to have 3 different actions: start, kick & stop.

We can now also remove the STATE_RADIO_RX_ON/STATE_RADIO_RX_OFF
device_state flags, and replace the usage with using the
start_queue/stop_queue callback functions.
This streamlines the RX queue handling to the
similar approach as all other queues.

special behavior inside rt2x00lib rather then the

Helmut Schaa 0204464329 rt2x00: Check for specific changed flags when updating the erp config
Previously rt2x00 was always updating all erp related config variables
even though mac80211 might only have changed one. Hence, pass the
changed flags to the config_erp driver callback so that the driver
can limit the changes to the correct values.

This fixes an issue in AP mode where the beacon interval is not
initialized (and thus zero) but still sent to the hardware causing an
interrupt storm on rt2800pci hanging the system.

Lars Ericsson 85f4d6488c rt2x00: Antenna diversity does not work in 2.6.35
The test if antenna diversity is at all enabled uses a local variable
'flags' to prepare the test condition, but uses 'ant->flags' when the test
is evaluated. The effect is that the diversity evaluation will never start.
I can see two solutions, use the 'flag' in the test condition or revert the
local flag change. My attached patch took alternative two.

Then the evaluation start but it will still not switch antenna. The problem
is a code section in rt2x00lib_config_antenna (). The effect of that code
section is that any change the diversity function perform will be
effectively shorten and no antenna selection command issued. The attached
patch will filter out any ANTENNA_SW_DIVERSITY setting but forward all
other

Ivo van Doorn e5ef5bad34 rt2x00: Remove ieee80211_rx_status from rt2x00_dev
rt2x00 was keeping a copy of ieee80211_rx_status embedded
into the rt2x00_dev structure. For each RX frame, this structure
was copied into the skb->cb where mac80211 would handle it further.

However at the moment only the fields current band, and frequency
were updated. Whereas the band was already provided directly within
the rt2x00_dev structure. Save a memcpy action, and reduce memory
a bit, by adding a curr_freq field to rt2x00_dev, and completely
remove the ieee80211_rx_status structure from rt2x00_dev.

Helmut Schaa ab8966ddc2 rt2x00: Add missing TSF sync mode for AP operation
Currently rt2x00 uses the TSF_SYNC_BEACON mode for all beaconing
interface types. However, TSF_SYNC_BEACON is meant for IBSS networks and
thus implements TSF merging in the hardware. Rename TSF_SYNC_BEACON to

TSF sync mode TSF_SYNC_AP_NONE which should be used for beaconing modes
that don't need TSF merging.

Ivo van Doorn 4789666e13 rt2x00: Hardcode TX ack timeout and consume time
The calculated values for the ACK timeout and ACK
consume time are different then the values as
used by the Legacy drivers.

After testing from James Ledwith it appeared that
the calculated values caused a high amount of TX
failures, and the values from the Legacy drivers
were the most optimal to prevent TX failure due to
excessive retries.

The symptoms of this problem:
 - Rate control module always falls back to 1Mbs
 - Low throughput when bitrate was fixed

Possible side-effects (not confirmed but highly likely)
 - Problems with DHCP
 - Broken connections due to lack of probe response

This should fix at least:
Kernel bugzilla reports: [13362], [13009], [9273]
Fedora bugzilla reports: [443203]
but possible some additional bugs as well.

rt2x00dev->default_ant should be initialized once by the driver,
and should not be changed afterwards. Because rt2x00lib_config_antenna()
was using a reference to the struct antenna_setup it actually had the oppurtunity
to change the default antenna setting and it actually did that during the validation.

Ivo van Doorn 6d64360ac5 rt2x00: Fix BUG_ON() with antenna handling
With the new configuration handling, and more specifically
splitting the configuration of the antenna from the normal
configuration steps allowed a BUG_ON() to be triggered
in the driver because the SW_DIVERSITY was send to the
driver. This fixes that by catching the value early in
rt2x00config.c and replacing it with a sensible value.

This also fixes a problem where the antenna is not being
initialized at all when the radio is enabled. Since it
no longer is part of the mac80211 configuration the
only place where rt2x00 configured it was the SW diversity
handler. Obviously this is broken for all non-diversity
hardware and breaks SW diversity due to a broken initialization.

When the radio is enabled the antenna will be configured
once as soon as the config() callback function is called.

prevent race conditions. The flags that are most important

which fixes some of the most obvious consequences of the
race conditions. Among those the notorious:

In rt2x00 the value was

This was caused because EIFS is: SIFS + DIFS + AckTime

the hw_value was reduced from 32bits to 16bits while rt2x00 used
the full 32bits. However the way rt2x00 used the value was inflexible
and needed to be changed anyway.

This patch creates a array containing information for each rate,
the hw_value passed to mac80211 is the index value for that array
including a field to indicate if short preamble should be enabled.

Johannes Berg 8318d78a44 cfg80211 API for channels/bitrates, mac80211 and driver conversion
This patch creates new cfg80211 wiphy API for channel and bitrate
registration and converts mac80211 and drivers to the new API. The
old mac80211 API is completely ripped out. All drivers (except ath5k)
are updated to the new API, in many cases I expect that optimisations
can be done.

Along with the regulatory code I've also ripped out the
IEEE80211_HW_DEFAULT_REG_DOMAIN_CONFIGURED flag, I believe it to be
unnecessary if the hardware simply gives us whatever channels it wants
to support and we then enable/disable them as required, which is pretty
much required for travelling.

Additionally, the patch adds proper "basic" rate handling for STA
mode interface, AP mode interface will have to have new API added
to allow userspace to set the basic rate set, currently it'll be
empty... However, the basic rate handling will need to be moved to
the BSS conf stuff.

I do expect there to be bugs in this, especially wrt. transmit
power handling where I'm basically clueless about how it should work.

Ivo van Doorn 6bb40dd13b rt2x00: Add per-interface structure
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.

Ivo van Doorn 05253c93fe rt2x00: Don't switch to antenna with low rssi
When rssi_a > rssi_b is true and the current antenna
was already antenna A, then rt2x00 incorrectly jumped
to antenna B.

Also don't configure the antenna when there has been
no change in the antenna setup.

Ivo van Doorn 61667d8d5b rt2x00: Add link tuner safe RX toggle states
This adds 2 new states which both are used to toggle
the RX. These new states are required for usage
inside the link tuner thread, because the normal
RX toggling will stop the link tuner thread.
While it is possible that the link tuner thread itself
is the caller of the RX toggle (when using software
antenna diversity).

DRV_NAME was always set to the KBUILD_MODNAME value,
lets clean everything up by removing DRV_NAME and just
use KBUILD_MODNAME directly.

Ivo van Doorn e25c4bb913 rt2x00: Disable RX when switching antenna
Antenna switching will be ignored when RX is enabled
during the switch. Make sure we disable the RX during
the switch and don't forget to reenable it later.
