Author: Ben Greear <greearb@candelatech.com>
Date: Fri Feb 4 11:54:17 2011 -0800
mac80211: Optimize scans on current operating channel.
we do not disable PS while going back to operational channel (on
ieee80211_scan_state_suspend) and deffer that until scan finish.
But since we are allowed to send frames, we can send a frame to AP
without PM bit set, so disable PS on AP side. Then when we switch
to off-channel (in ieee80211_scan_state_resume) we do not enable PS.
Hence we are off-channel with PS disabled, frames are not buffered
by AP.
To fix remove offchannel_ps_disable argument and always enable PS when
going off-channel and disable it when going on-channel, like it was
before.

During FT roaming, wpa_supplicant attempts to set the
key before association. This used to be rejected, but
as a side effect of my commit 66e67e4189
("mac80211: redesign auth/assoc") the key was accepted
causing hardware crypto to not be used for it as the
station isn't added to the driver yet.
It would be possible to accept the key and then add it
to the driver when the station has been added. However,
this may run into issues with drivers using the state-
based station adding if they accept the key only after
association like it used to be.
For now, revert to the behaviour from before the auth
and assoc change.

The rate scaling won't treat the information in a frame
with IEEE80211_TX_CTL_AMPDU set if IEEE80211_TX_STAT_AMPDU
is cleared. But all the frames coming from an AGG tx queue
have IEEE80211_TX_CTL_AMPDU set, and IEEE80211_TX_STAT_AMPDU
is set only if the frame was sent in an AMPDU.
This means that all the data in frames in AGG tx queues that
aren't sent as an AMPDU is thrown away.
This is even more harmful when in bad link conditions, the
frames are sent in an AMPDU and then finally sent as single
frame. So a lot of failures weren't reported and the rate
scaling got stuck in high rates leading to very poor
connectivity.
Fix that by clearing IEEE80211_TX_CTL_AMPDU when the frame
isn't part of an AMPDU.

The commit "ath9k: fix rx flush handling" added a deadlock that happens
because ath_rx_tasklet is called in a section that has already taken the
rx buffer lock.
It seems that the only purpose of the rxbuflock was a band-aid fix to the
reset vs rx tasklet race, which has been properly fixed in the commit
"ath9k: add a better fix for the rx tasklet vs rx flush race".
Now that the fix is in, we can safely remove the lock to avoid such issues.

Right now the rx flush is not doing anything useful on AR9003+, as it only
works if the buffers in the rx FIFO have not been purged yet, as is done
by ath_stoprecv.
To fix this, always call ath_flushrecv from within ath_stoprecv before
the FIFO is emptied, but still after the hw receive path has been stopped.
This ensures that frames received (and ACKed by the hardware) shortly before
a reset will be seen by the software, which should improve A-MPDU session
stability.

Recent versions of udev cause synchronous firmware loading from the
probe routine to fail because the request to user space would time
out. The original fix for b43 (commit 6b6fa58) moved the firmware
load from the probe routine to a work queue, but it still used synchronous
firmware loading. This method is OK when b43 is built as a module;
however, it fails when the driver is compiled into the kernel.
This version changes the code to load the initial firmware file
using request_firmware_nowait(). A completion event is used to
hold the work queue until that file is available. This driver
reads several firmware files - the remainder can be read synchronously.
On some test systems, the async read fails; however, a following synch
read works, thus the async failure falls through to the sync try.

This adds support for the 60 GHz 802.11ad Wilocity card
through a new driver, wil6210. Wilocity implemented the
firmware, QCA maintains the device driver.
Currently supported:
- STA: with security
- AP: limited to 1 connected STA, security disabled
- Monitor: due to a hardware/firmware limitation
either control or non-control frames are monitored
Using a STA and AP with this drive, one can assemble
a fully functional BSS. Throughput of 1.2Gbps is achieved
with iperf.
The wil6210 cards have on-board flash memory for the

When AP's SSID is hidden the BSS can appear several times in
cfg80211's BSS list: once with a zero-length SSID that comes
from the beacon, and once for each SSID from probe reponses.
Since the mac80211 stores its data in ieee80211_bss which
is embedded into cfg80211_bss, mac80211's data will be
duplicated too.
This becomes a problem when a driver needs the dtim_period
since this data exists only in the beacon's instance in
cfg80211 bss table which isn't the instance that is used
when associating.
Remove the DTIM period from the BSS table and track it
explicitly to avoid this problem.

Unfortunately, commit b22cfcfcae, intended to speed up roaming
by avoiding the synchronize_rcu() broke AP/mesh modes as it moved
some code into that work item that will still call into the driver
at a time where it's no longer expected to handle this: after the
AP or mesh has been stopped.
To fix this problem remove the per-station work struct, maintain a
station cleanup list instead and flush this list when stations are
flushed. To keep this patch smaller for stable, do this when the
stations are flushed (sta_info_flush()). This unfortunately brings
back the original roaming delay; I'll fix that again in a separate
patch.
Also, Ben reported that the original commit could sometimes (with
many interfaces) cause long delays when an interface is set down,
due to blocking on flush_workqueue(). Since we now maintain the
cleanup list, this particular change of the original patch can be
reverted.
