Sujith Manoharan 7c5c73cde0 ath9k: Fix error condition for corrupt descriptors
In case a descriptor has the "done" bit clear and the
next descriptor has it set, we drop both of them. If
the packet that is received after these two packets
is dropped for some reason, "discard_next" will not cleared.
Fix this.

Felix Fietkau e96542e55a ath9k: fix rx descriptor related race condition
Similar to a race condition that exists in the tx path, the hardware
might re-read the 'next' pointer of a descriptor of the last completed
frame. This only affects non-EDMA (pre-AR93xx) devices.

To deal with this race, defer clearing and re-linking a completed rx
descriptor until the next one has been processed.

Sujith Manoharan 07236bf3c6 ath9k: Use lockless variants for the RX fifo queue
The RX fifo can be accessed from the common tasklet or it can
be reaped/cleaned when RX is stopped, which is done when doing
a reset or channel change - this happens in process context.

Since it is ensured that there are no pending tasklets when
stopping RX and cleaning the FIFO, there is no need to use
SKB queue functions which take internal locks.

If AR_CRCErr, AR_PHYErr, AR_DecryptCRCErr or AR_MichaelErr is indicated
in the rx status word, but AR_RxFrameOK is also set, the descriptor
contents are typically invalid. This can show up as a warning about
invalid MCS rates in a frame. Even with those checks in place, a
descriptor with invalid MCS rates can still sometimes make it through to
the driver (mostly on older hardware like AR91xx).

Detect such errors in the last descriptor of a frame and discard the
whole frame if present.

Felix Fietkau 723e711356 ath9k: fix handling of broken descriptors
As the comment in ath_get_next_rx_buf indicates, if a descriptor with
the done bit set follows one with the done bit cleared, both descriptors
should be discarded, however the driver is not doing that yet.

To fix this, use the rs->rs_more flag as an indicator that the following
frame should be discarded. This also helps with the split buffer case:
if the first part of the frame is discarded, the following parts need to
be discarded as well, since they contain no valid header or usable data.

Sven Eckelmann 4ab0b0aa57 ath9k: Update spectral scan output data
The sample data received through the spectral scan can be either in big or
little endian byteorder. This information isn't stored in the output file.
Therefore it is not possible for the analyzer software to find the correct byte
order.

It is relative common to get the data from a low end AP in big endian mode and
transfer it to another computer in little endian mode to analyze it. Therefore,
it would be better to store it in network (big endian) byte order.

The extension of the 8 bit bins for each bin to 16 bit is not necessary. This
operation can be done in userspace or on a different machine. Instead the
max_exp defining the amount of shifting required for each bin is exported to
userspace.

The change of the output format requires a change of the type in the sample
tlv to allow the userspace program to correctly detect the bin format.

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.

Felix Fietkau 4b883f021b ath9k: fix rx flush handling
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.

Simon Wunderlich e93d083f42 ath9k: add spectral scan feature
Adds the spectral scan feature for ath9k. AR92xx and AR93xx chips
are supported for now. The spectral scan is triggered by configuring
a mode through a debugfs control file. Samples can be gathered via
another relay debugfs file.

Essentially, to try it out:

echo chanscan > /sys/kernel/debug/ieee80211/phy0/ath9k/spectral_scan_ctl
iw dev wlan0 scan
cat /sys/kernel/debug/ieee80211/phy0/ath9k/spectral_scan0 > samples
echo disable > /sys/kernel/debug/ieee80211/phy0/ath9k/spectral_scan_ctl

This feature is still experimental.

The special "chanscan" mode is used to perform spectral scan while
mac80211 is scanning for channels. To allow this,
sw_scan_start/complete() ops have been added.

The patch contains code snippets and information from Zefir Kurtisi and
information provided by Adrian Chadd and Felix Fietkau.

Thomas Pedersen 96d21371ac ath9k: RX timestamp is reported at end of frame
Accurate RX timestamp reporting is important for proper IBSS merging,
mesh synchronization, and MCCA scheduling. Namely, knowing where the TSF
is recorded is needed to sync with the beacon timestamp field.

Tested with AR9280.

When WLAN is idle ensure we downgrade to FTP_STOMP_LOW weight
(from STOMP_LOW) to provide more bandwidth for BT FTP profile.
WLAN's idleness can be estimated by taking into account of the
rx data packets and just ignore beacons, qos nullfunc etc.

Also update bt_wait_time even if the chip is in NETWORK SLEEP
mode. This should help BT throughput when WLAN is idle.

Lorenzo Bianconi e1352fde56 ath9k: fix decrypt_error initialization in ath_rx_tasklet()
ath_rx_tasklet() calls ath9k_rx_skb_preprocess() and ath9k_rx_skb_postprocess()
in a loop over the received frames. The decrypt_error flag is
initialized to false
just outside ath_rx_tasklet() loop. ath9k_rx_accept(), called by
ath9k_rx_skb_preprocess(),
only sets decrypt_error to true and never to false.
Then ath_rx_tasklet() calls ath9k_rx_skb_postprocess() and passes
decrypt_error to it.
So, after a decryption error, in ath9k_rx_skb_postprocess(), we can
have a leftover value
from another processed frame. In that case, the frame will not be marked with
RX_FLAG_DECRYPTED even if it is decrypted correctly.
When using CCMP encryption this issue can lead to connection stuck
because of CCMP
PN corruption and a waste of CPU time since mac80211 tries to decrypt an already
deciphered frame with ieee80211_aes_ccm_decrypt.
Fix the issue initializing decrypt_error flag at the begging of the
ath_rx_tasklet() loop.

Felix Fietkau bed3d9c0b7 ath9k: fix dynamic WEP related regression
commit 7a532fe713
ath9k_hw: fix interpretation of the rx KeyMiss flag

This commit used the rx key miss indication to detect packets that were
passed from the hardware without being decrypted, however it seems that
this bit is not only undefined in the static WEP case, but also for
dynamically allocated WEP keys. This caused a regression when using
WEP-LEAP.

This patch fixes the regression by keeping track of which key indexes
refer to CCMP keys and only using the key miss indication for those.

When BT FTP/PAN transmits while WLAN is idle, the one of 9462 chain

Felix Fietkau 846d936350 ath9k_hw: fix a regression in key miss handling
The commit "ath9k_hw: Fix incorrect key_miss handling" changed the code
to only report key miss errors if a MIC error wasn't reported.
When checking the flags in that order in the MAC code, it might miss some
real events, because the value of the MIC error flag is undefined under
some conditions.

The primary issue addressed by the previous commit is making sure that
MIC errors are properly reported on the STA side. This can be fixed in
a better way by adding a separate rx status flag for key miss and
ignoring it for multicast frames.

This fix slightly improves stability in AP mode on some older hardware,
like AR9132.

Felix Fietkau 3483288caf ath9k: ensure that rx is not enabled during a reset
During a reset, rx buffers are flushed after rx has been disabled. To avoid
race conditions, rx needs to stay disabled during the reset, so avoid any
calls to ath9k_hw_rxena in that case.

On non-MIMO chips with rx diversity (e.g. 9285), this configures the rx

Felix Fietkau 66760eac00 ath9k: improve reliability of MIC error detection
For unicast the hardware sometimes reports MIC errors even though the
frame that it received actually contains a valid MIC - on some chips this
can happen frequently enough to trigger TKIP countermeasures.
Fix this issue by not reporting MIC errors for unicast frames with a
valid key, letting mac80211 validate the MIC instead.

Additionally, strip the MIC for all frames that the hardware considers
valid to avoid wasting CPU cycles re-validating it.

Alexey Dobriyan b7f080cfe2 net: remove mm.h inclusion from netdevice.h
Remove linux/mm.h inclusion from netdevice.h -- it's unused (I've checked manually).

To prevent mm.h inclusion via other channels also extract "enum dma_data_direction"
definition into separate header. This tiny piece is what gluing netdevice.h with mm.h
via "netdevice.h => dmaengine.h => dma-mapping.h => scatterlist.h => mm.h".
Removal of mm.h from scatterlist.h was tried and was found not feasible
on most archs, so the link was cutoff earlier.

Hope people are OK with tiny include file.

Note, that mm_types.h is still dragged in, but it is a separate story.
