2010-02-22mwl8k: convert to new station add/remove callbacksJohannes Berg
This converts mwl8k to use the new station add/remove callbacks instead of using the old sta_notify callback. The new callbacks can sleep, so a lot of code can be removed now.

2010-02-16mwl8k: disable softirqs when accessing sta_notify_listPavel Roskin
Use spin_[un]lock_bh in mwl8k_sta_notify(). The sta_notify handler is required to be atomic, yet it can be called in process context, so make sure one call won't preempt another. Signed-off-by: Pavel Roskin <proski@gnu.org> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>
2010-02-08mwl8k: remove get_tx_stats() mac80211 opKalle Valo
get_tx_stats() will be removed from mac80211. mwl8k used struct ieee80211_tx_queue_stats internally to track the queue lenght. Replace struct ieee80211_tx_queue_stats with a simple len field in struct mwl8k_tx_queue. Limit and count fields seemed to be unused. Compile-tested only.

2010-01-26mac80211: wait for beacon before enabling powersaveJohannes Berg
Because DTIM information is required for powersave but is only conveyed in beacons, wait for a beacon before enabling powersave, and change the way the information is conveyed to the driver accordingly. mwl8k doesn't currently seem to implement PS but requires the DTIM period in a different way; after talking to Lennert we agreed to just have mwl8k do the parsing itself in the finalize_join work.

2010-01-12mwl8k: enable multi-BSS AP operationLennert Buytenhek
As follows: - GET_HW_SPEC is now responsible for setting priv->{ap,sta}_macids_supported, which are bitmasks of supported macids for AP and STA mode. (Typically, STA firmware images will support only one macid, #0, in STA mode, and AP firmware images will support macids #0-7, in AP mode.) - Our wiphy ->interfaces_modes is now set based on the non-zero-ness of these two bitmasks. - We main priv->macids_used, a bitmask of which macids are currently in use. ->add_interface() will assign the lowest free macid for this interface type as it is created, or bail out if there are no more free macids to assign. ->delete_interface() will mark the macid as being free again. This enables the multi-BSS code added in the previous commits. Signed-off-by: Lennert Buytenhek <buytenh@marvell.com> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>
2010-01-12mwl8k: post per-vif firmware commands as per-vif commandsLennert Buytenhek
SET_BEACON, SET_MAC_ADDR, BSS_START and SET_NEW_STN are the currently supported firmware commands that are actually per-vif commands. Use mwl8k_post_pervif_cmd() for these commands, so that the macid of the vif they operate on gets passed down into the firmware.

2010-01-12mwl8k: prepare for posting per-vif firmware commandsLennert Buytenhek
One of the bytes in the mwl8k firmware command header is the 'macid' byte, which for per-vif commands indicates which of the BSSes this command is intended for. (For commands that are not per-vif commands, this byte can just be 0.) This patch adds mwl8k_post_pervif_cmd(), which will take the macid assigned to this interface (to be done in ->add_interface()), copy it into the command packet macid field, and post the command as usual.

2010-01-12mwl8k: use firmware capability field to decide which bands to registerLennert Buytenhek
Make the decision about whether to register the 2.4 and 5 GHz bands with mac80211 by looking at the capability field in GET_HW_SPEC (STA firmware only for now). This enables 5 GHz STA operation.

2010-01-12mwl8k: handle 5 GHz legacy rate bitmaps in firmware commandsLennert Buytenhek
Whenever mac80211 gives us a legacy rate bitmap in the context of the 5 GHz band, we need to remember to shift the bitmap left by 5 positions before giving it to the firmware, as the firmware follows the bitmap bit assignment of the 2.4 GHz rate table even if we're on the 5 GHz band, and the 2.4 GHz rate table includes five non-OFDM rates at the start that are not valid in the 5 GHz band.

2010-01-12mwl8k: properly set receive status rate index on 5 GHz receiveLennert Buytenhek
The mwl8k firmware uses indices into the 2.4 GHz band rate table for the receive descriptor channel field even if the packet was received on a 5 GHz channel, while mac80211 expects an index into the 5 GHz band rate table when packets are received on the 5 GHz band, which presents a mismatch as the 5 GHz band rate table lacks the five non-OFDM rates that the 2.4 GHz rate table starts with. To handle this properly, we need to substract 5 from the rate index field if the packet was received on a 5 GHz channel (and was not received at an MCS rate).

2010-01-12mwl8k: move receive processing to taskletLennert Buytenhek
Like how TX reclaim is done in a tasklet, move receive processing to tasklet context as well. This can have nice benefits for CPU utilisation and throughput, especially at 3-stream rates. (Use the same CLEAR_SEL trick as the TX reclaim tasklet does, to avoid having to touch the interrupt mask registers.) Signed-off-by: Lennert Buytenhek <buytenh@marvell.com> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>
2010-01-12mwl8k: keep TX_DONE interrupt masked while transmit reclaim is runningLennert Buytenhek
By making use of the CLEAR_SEL feature of the mwl8k host interface interrupt controller, we can keep the TX_DONE interrupt source masked while the transmit reclaim tasklet is running (NAPI style) without having to touch the interrupt controller's interrupt mask register when entering or exiting polling mode, and without having to do any more register reads/writes than we do now. When CLEAR_SEL is enabled on the TX_DONE interrupt source, reading the interrupt status register will clear the TX_DONE status bit if it was set, allowing it to be set again if a new TX_DONE event arrives while we are running the TX reclaim tasklet, but such a new event will then not trigger another PCI interrupt until a zero is written to the TX_DONE interrupt status register bit. I.e., if we write a zero to the TX_DONE interrupt source bit in the interrupt status register when the TX reclaim tasklet thinks it's done, a PCI interrupt will be triggered if a new TX_DONE event arrived from the hardware between us deciding that there is no more work to do and re-enabling the TX_DONE interrupt source, thereby avoiding the classic NAPI poll mode exit race that would otherwise occur.

2010-01-12mwl8k: implement AP firmware station database maintenanceLennert Buytenhek
STA firmware uses UPDATE_STADB to manipulate the hardware station database, whereas AP firmware uses SET_NEW_STN -- this implements the latter, and hooks it into mwl8k_sta_notify(), to be used if we're running on AP firmware.

2010-01-12mwl8k: add the AP version of USE_FIXED_RATELennert Buytenhek

2010-01-12mwl8k: simplify mwl8k_cmd_use_fixed_rate()Lennert Buytenhek

2010-01-12mwl8k: bump the transmit wait timeout to 5 secondsLennert Buytenhek
While it is reasonable to expect that at least one transmit ring entry will be processed per second while we are waiting for the transmit rings to drain, the firmware can end up doing batching of transmit ring status writeback, which means that the transmit rings can appear stuck for more than a second at a time. Bump the TX drain wait timeout up from 1 to 5 seconds to account for this. Signed-off-by: Lennert Buytenhek <buytenh@marvell.com> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>

The comment and code in mwl8k_cmd_set_edca_params() suggest that the mapping between SET_EDCA_PARAMS queue numbers and transmit rings isn't actually 1:1, while tests show that the mapping is in fact 1:1.

(Since issuing a hardware station database maintenance command sleeps, we can't hold a reference to the ieee80211_sta * across the command, and since we won't know the station ID until after the command completes, we need to re-lookup the sta when the command is done to write the returned station ID back to its driver-private part.)
