2009-09-29b43: Always use block-I/O for the PIO data registersMichael Buesch
On SDIO the PIO data register seems to be hardwired to LE. So the MACCTL bit has no effect on the endianness. So also use block-I/O for the last word of the packet. block-I/O is always LE.

2009-09-08b43: Remove PIO RX workqueueMichael Buesch
This removes the PIO RX work. It's not needed anymore, because we can sleep in the threaded interrupt handler. Signed-off-by: Michael Buesch <mb@bu3sch.de> Tested-by: Larry Finger <Larry.Finger@lwfinger.net> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>
2009-09-08b43: Remove DMA/PIO queue locksMichael Buesch
This removes the DMA/PIO queue locks. Locking is handled by wl->mutex now. Signed-off-by: Michael Buesch <mb@bu3sch.de> Tested-by: Larry Finger <Larry.Finger@lwfinger.net> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>
2009-09-08b43: Use a threaded IRQ handlerMichael Buesch
Use a threaded IRQ handler to allow locking the mutex and sleeping while executing an interrupt. This removes usage of the irq_lock spinlock, but introduces a new hardirq_lock, which is _only_ used for the PCI/SSB lowlevel hard-irq handler. Sleeping busses (SDIO) will use mutex instead.

2009-08-04mac80211: redefine usage of the mac80211 workqueueLuis R. Rodriguez
The mac80211 workqueue exists to enable mac80211 and drivers to queue their own work on a single threaded workqueue. mac80211 takes care to flush the workqueue during suspend but we never really had requirements on drivers for how they should use the workqueue in consideration for suspend. We extend mac80211 to document how the mac80211 workqueue should be used, how it should not be used and finally move raw access to the workqueue to mac80211 only. Drivers and mac80211 use helpers to queue work onto the mac80211 workqueue: * ieee80211_queue_work() * ieee80211_queue_delayed_work() These helpers will now warn if mac80211 already completed its suspend cycle and someone is trying to queue work. mac80211 flushes the mac80211 workqueue prior to suspend a few times, but we haven't taken the care to ensure drivers won't add more work after suspend. To help with this we add a warning when someone tries to add work and mac80211 already completed the suspend cycle. Drivers should ensure they cancel any work or delayed work in the mac80211 stop() callback. Signed-off-by: Luis R. Rodriguez <lrodriguez@atheros.com> Signed-off-by: John W.

Add automagic feature flags, so the firmware can tell the driver about supported features and the driver can switch features on/off as needed.

2008-10-31mac80211/drivers: rewrite the rate control APIJohannes Berg
So after the previous changes we were still unhappy with how convoluted the API is and decided to make things simpler for everybody. This completely changes the rate control API, now taking into account 802.11n with MCS rates and more control, most drivers don't support that though.

2008-06-27b43: Fix PIO skb clobberMichael Buesch
This fixes a clobber of the skb that was introduced by the tx_control->cb conversion patches. This bug causes a crash when the skb destructor is invoked. That happens on skb_orphan or skb_kfree. Signed-off-by: Michael Buesch <mb@bu3sch.de> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>
2008-05-21mac80211: use multi-queue master netdeviceJohannes Berg
This patch updates mac80211 and drivers to be multi-queue aware and use that instead of the internal queue mapping. Also does a number of cleanups in various pieces of the code that fall out and reduces internal mac80211 state size. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes@sipsolutions.net> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>
2008-05-21mac80211: move TX info into skb->cbJohannes Berg
This patch converts mac80211 and all drivers to have transmit information and status in skb->cb rather than allocating extra memory for it and copying all the data around. To make it fit, a union is used where only data that is necessary for all steps is kept outside of the union. A number of fixes were done by Ivo, as well as the rt2x00 part of this patch.

2008-05-07mac80211: clean up get_tx_stats callbackJohannes Berg
The callback takes a ieee80211_tx_queue_stats with a contained array of ieee80211_tx_queue_stats_data, remove the former, rename the latter to ieee80211_tx_queue_stats and make tx_stats() take the array directly.

2008-04-08b43: Use SSB block-I/O to do PIOMichael Buesch
This changes the b43-PIO code to use the new SSB block-I/O. This reduces the overhead by removing lots of function calls, pointer dereferencing, if-conditionals any byteswapping for each packet data word. This also fixes a harmless sparse endianness warning.

2008-04-08b43: Add PIO support for PCMCIA devicesMichael Buesch
This adds PIO support back (D'oh!) for PCMCIA devices. This is a complete rewrite of the old PIO code. It does actually work and we get reasonable performance out of it on a modern machine. On a PowerBook G4 I get a few MBit for TX and a few more for RX. So it doesn't work as well as DMA (of course), but it's a _lot_ faster than the old PIO code (only got a few kBit with that). The limiting factor is the host CPU speed. So it will generate 100% CPU usage when the network interface is heavily loaded. A voluntary preemption point in the RX path makes sure Desktop Latency isn't hurt. PIO is needed for 16bit PCMCIA devices, as we really don't want to poke with the braindead DMA mechanisms on PCMCIA sockets. Additionally, not all PCMCIA sockets do actually support DMA in 16bit mode (mine doesn't). Signed-off-by: Michael Buesch <mb@bu3sch.de> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>
