after frames have been queued, this area can be used to store information
that was previously stored in the ath_buf. With these changes, we can delay

The current ath9k tx queue handling code showed a few issues that could
lead to locking issues, tx stalls due to stopped queues, and maybe even
DMA issues.
The main source of these issues is that in some places the queue is
selected via skb queue mapping in places where this mapping may no
longer be valid. One such place is when data frames are transmitted via
the CAB queue (for powersave buffered frames). This is made even worse
by a lookup WMM AC values from the assigned tx queue (which is
undefined for the CAB queue).
This messed up the pending frame counting, which in turn caused issues
with queues getting stopped, but not woken again.
To fix these issues, this patch removes an unnecessary abstraction
separating a driver internal queue number from the skb queue number
(not to be confused with the hardware queue number).
It seems that this abstraction may have been necessary because of tx
queue preinitialization from the initvals. This patch avoids breakage
here by pushing the software <-> hardware queue mapping to the function
that assigns the tx queues and redefining the WMM AC definitions to
match the numbers used by mac80211 (also affects ath9k_htc).
To ensure consistency wrt. pending frame count tracking, these counters
are moved to the ath_txq struct, updated with the txq lock held, but
only where the tx queue selected by the skb queue map actually matches
the tx queue used by the driver for the frame.

[during heavy txrx action] suddenly signalized to go
off-channel (old NetworkManager), or (sleep - which is

We have seen several DMA races when we race against

If you run into this warning and are a developer,
please fix the cause of the warning. The potential
here, although I cannot prove yet, is that the DMA
engine can be confused and start writing to a buffer
that was already DMA'd before and at least the kernel

Because all of the descriptor data structures are marked as __packed, GCC
assumes the worst case wrt. alignment and generates unaligned load/store
instructions on MIPS for access to all fields.
Since descriptors always have to be 4-byte-aligned, we can just mark the
data structures with __aligned(4), which allows GCC to generate much more
efficient code.
Verified through disassembly and OProfile comparisons.

OProfile showed that ath9k was spending way too much time in
ath9k_hw_set_interrupts. Since most of the interrupt mask changes only
need to globally enable/disable interrupts, it makes sense to split
this part into separate functions, replacing all calls to
ath9k_hw_set_interrupts(ah, 0) with ath9k_hw_disable_interrupts(ah).
ath9k_hw_set_interrupts(ah, ah->imask) only gets changed to
ath9k_hw_enable_interrupts(ah), whenever ah->imask was not changed
since the point where interrupts were disabled.

Bit 22 of AR_WA should be set to fix the situation where chip reset
is asynchronous to clock of analog shift registers, such that when
reset is released, it could mess up the values of analog shift registers
and cause some hw issue on AR9280.
This bit is write only, but the driver does a read-modify-write
on AR_WA without setting bit 22 in ar9002_hw_configpcipowersave()
during radio disable. This causes surprise removal of hw. It can
never recover from this state and the hw will become usable only
after a power on/off cycle, and sometimes only during a cold reboot.
This issue can be triggered by doing frequent roaming with the
simple/test-roam script available from the wifi-test project [1]
when roaming between APs quickly. When roaming there is a is a high
possibility that the device being put into idle (radio disable) state
by mac80211 during AUTH->ASSOC. A device hardware reset would fail
and the kernel would output:

This is currently only reproducible with some HB92 (Half Mini-PCIE)
cards but the fix applies to all AR9280 cards. This patch fixes this
issue by setting bit 22 during radio disable.

ath9k locks for starting RX but not for stopping RX. We could
potentially run into a situation where tried to stop RX
but immediately started RX. This allows for races on the
the RX engine deciding what buffer we last left off on
and could potentially cause ath9k to DMA into already
free'd memory or in the worst case at a later time to
already given memory to other drivers.
Fix this by locking stopping RX.

The ath9k aggregation code was already checking the rate control probe flag
to prevent starting an aggregate frame with a sampling rate. What was missing
was closing an aggregate before adding a probing frame to it.
Without that, rate control cannot have precise control over probing, which

This updates the initvals for the AR9003 2.2 chipsets. The initvals
are the initial register values we use for our registers upon hardware
reset. This synchs up the initvals to match what our latest recommendation
from our systems engineering team.
The description of changes in this update:
Improves ability to support very strong Rx conditions.
Enhances DFS support for AP-mode.
Improves performance of Tx carrier leak calibration.
Adds support for Japan channel 14 Tx filtering requirements.
Improves Tx power accuracy.
Impact:
Update required to address degraded throughput at very short range.
Update required for AP-mode DFS certification.
Update required to comply to IEEE Tx carrier leak specification.
May not meet expected +/- 2 dB Tx power accuracy without update.
The most important fix here would be the TX carrier leakage required
to comply with IEEE 802.11 specifications. The group of changes have
been tested all together in one release.

All file_operations should get a .llseek operation so we can make
nonseekable_open the default for future file operations without a
.llseek pointer.
The three cases that we can automatically detect are no_llseek, seq_lseek
and default_llseek. For cases where we can we can automatically prove that
the file offset is always ignored, we use noop_llseek, which maintains
the current behavior of not returning an error from a seek.
New drivers should normally not use noop_llseek but instead use no_llseek
and call nonseekable_open at open time. Existing drivers can be converted
to do the same when the maintainer knows for certain that no user code
relies on calling seek on the device file.
The generated code is often incorrectly indented and right now contains
comments that clarify for each added line why a specific variant was
chosen. In the version that gets submitted upstream, the comments will
be gone and I will manually fix the indentation, because there does not
seem to be a way to do that using coccinelle.
Some amount of new code is currently sitting in linux-next that should get
the same modifications, which I will do at the end of the merge window.
Many thanks to Julia Lawall for helping me learn to write a semantic
patch that does all this.

This patch fixes the following problems with the rate control feedback
generated by ath9k for A-MPDU frames:
1. Rate control feedback is carried on the first frame of an aggregate
that is either ACKed, or has execeeded the software retry count and is
considered failed. However, ath9k would incorrectly assume the aggregate
had the length 1 if one of these conditions did not apply to the first
frame of the aggregate, but instead a later frame. This fix therefor
copies the bf_nframes field of the buffer in the same manner as the rates
field of the tx status.
2. Sometimes the ampdu_len and ampdu_ack_len fields of the tx status was
left uninitialized eventhough the IEEE80211_TX_STAT_AMPDU flag was set.
This is now avoid by setting flag and fields in the same place.
3. Even if a frame has been selected for aggregation by mac80211 and
marked with the IEEE80211_TX_CTL_AMPDU flag it can sometimes happen that
ath9k transmits the frame without aggregation. In these cases the
ampdu_ack_len field could be incorrectly computed because the nbad
parameter to ath_tx_rc_status was incorrect.

purposes if the baseband watchdog on AR9003 detects a lockup.
In the future, we want to use these counters to determine the medium utilization
and export this information via survey. For that, we need to make sure that
the counter is only accessed from one place, which also ensures that

The hardware rx-filter was essentially disabled, because
of a serve, yet unidentifiable problem with iwlagn.
Due to these circumstances the driver and mac80211 were
left with the job of filtering.
This is very unfortunate and has proven to be expensive
in terms of latency, memory and load.
Therefore the new 1.8.8.3 firmware introduces a flexible
filtering infrastructure which allows the driver to
offload some of the checks (FCS & PLCP crc check,
RA match, control frame filter, etc...) whenever possible.
Note:
This patch also includes all changes to the
shared headers files since the inclusion.

The tid aggregation cleanup is a bit fragile, as it discards failed
subframes in some places, and retransmits them in others. This could
block the cleanup of an existing aggregation session, if a retransmission
for a tid is issued, yet the tid is never scheduled again because of
the cleanup state.
Fix this by getting rid of as many subframes as possible, as early
as possible, and immediately transmitting pending subframes as regular
HT frames instead of waiting for the cleanup to complete.
Drop all pending subframes while keeping track of the Block ACK window
during aggregate tx completion to prevent sending out stale subframes,
which could confuse the receiver side.

If we return a TX descriptor to the pool of available descriptors, while a
queues TXDP still points to it we could potentially run into all sorts of
troube.
It has been suggested that there is hardware which can set the descriptors
done bit before it reads ds_link and moves on to the next descriptor. While the
documentation says this is not true for newer chipsets (the descriptor contents
are copied to some internal memory), we don't know about older hardware.
To be safe, we always keep the last descriptor in the queue, and avoid dangling
TXDP pointers. Unfortunately this does not fully resolve the problem - queues
still get stuck!

ath9k's entire logic with SC_OP_SCANNING is incorrect due to the
way mac80211 currently implements the scan complete callback and
we handle it in ath9k. This patch removes the flag completely in
preference for the SC_OP_OFFCHANNEL which is really what we wanted.
The scanning flag was used to ensure we reset ANI to the old values
when we go back to the home channel, but if we are offchannel we
use some defaults. The flag was also used to re-enable the TX monitor.
Without this patch we simply never re-enabled ANI and the TX monitor
after going offchannel. This means that after one background
scan we are prone to noise issues and if we had a TX hang we would
not recover. To get this to work properly we must enable ANI after
we have configured the beacon timers, otherwise hardware acts really
oddly.
This patch has stable fixes which apply down to [2.6.36+], there
*may* be a to fix this on older kernels but requires a bit of
work since this patch relies on the new mac80211 flag
IEEE80211_CONF_OFFCHANNEL which was introduced as of 2.6.36.

When we return to the home channel we were never reseting our beacon
timers, this was casued by the fact that the scanning flag was still
on even after we returned to our home channel. There are also other
reasons why we would get a reset and if we are not off channel
we always need to resynch our beacon timers, because a reset will
clear them.
This bug is a regression introduced on 2.6.36. The order of the
changes are as follows:
5ee08656 - Sat Jul 31 - ath9k: prevent calibration during off-channel activity
a0daa0e7 - Tue Jul 27 - Revert "mac80211: fix sw scan bracketing"
543708be - Fri Jun 18 - mac80211: fix sw scan bracketing
mcgrof@tux ~/linux-2.6-allstable (git::master)$ git describe \
--contains 5ee0865615
v2.6.36-rc1~43^2~34^2~22
mcgrof@tux ~/linux-2.6-allstable (git::master)$ git describe \

--contains 543708be32
v2.6.36-rc1~571^2~107^2~187
So 5ee08656 would have worked if a0daa0e7 was not committed but
it was so this means 5ee08656 was broken since it assumed that
when we were in the channel change routine the scan flag would
be lifted. As it turns out the scan flag will be set when we
are already on the home channel.
For more details refer to:
http://code.google.com/p/chromium-os/issues/detail?id=5715
These issues will need to be considered for our solution on
reshifting the scan complete callback location on mac80211 on
current development kernel work.

ath9k has a race on putting the chip into network sleep and
having registers read from hardware. The race occurs because
although ath9k_ps_restore() locks its own callers it makes use
of some variables which get altered in the driver at different
code paths. The variables are the ps_enabled and ps_flags.
This is easily reprodicible in large network environments when
roaming with the wpa_supplicant simple bgscan. You'd get some
0xdeadbeef read out on certain registers such as:
ath: timeout (100000 us) on reg 0x806c: 0xdeadbeef & 0x01f00000 != 0x00000000
ath: RX failed to go idle in 10 ms RXSM=0xdeadbeef
ath: timeout (100000 us) on reg 0x7000: 0xdeadbeef & 0x00000003 != 0x00000000
ath: Chip reset failed
The fix is to protect the ath9k_config(hw, IEEE80211_CONF_CHANGE_PS)
calls with a spin_lock_irqsave() which will disable contendors for
these variables from interrupt context, timers, re-entry from mac80211
on the same callback, and most importantly from ath9k_ps_restore()
which is the only call which will put the device into network sleep.
There are quite a few threads and bug reports on these a few of them are:

To optimize register read/write operations, the HTC firmwares were patched
to change EP3 and EP4 pipe types from Interrupt to Bulk. So register writes
are submitted as bulk urbs, but register reads are not. Also changing the
register read endpoint pipe as bulk type when URBs are filled improves the
register reads considerably which results in reduced scan time and CPU
