Felix Fietkau 1144601118 ath9k: fix double calls to ath_radio_enable
With the enable_radio being uninitialized, ath_radio_enable() might be

Valentin Longchamp 2d20c72c02 setup correct int pipe type in ar9170_usb_exec_cmd
An int urb is constructed but we fill it in with a bulk pipe type.

Commit f661c6f8c6 implemented a pipe type
check when CONFIG_USB_DEBUG is enabled. The check failed for all the ar9170
usb transfers and the driver could not configure the wifi dongle.

This went unnoticed until now because most people don't have
CONFIG_USB_DEBUG enabled.

Tejun Heo 5a0e3ad6af include cleanup: Update gfp.h and slab.h includes to prepare for breaking implicit slab.h inclusion from percpu.h
percpu.h is included by sched.h and module.h and thus ends up being
included when building most .c files.  percpu.h includes slab.h which
in turn includes gfp.h making everything defined by the two files
universally available and complicating inclusion dependencies.

percpu.h -> slab.h dependency is about to be removed.  Prepare for
this change by updating users of gfp and slab facilities include those
headers directly instead of assuming availability.  As this conversion
needs to touch large number of source files, the following script is
used as the basis of conversion.

  http://userweb.kernel.org/~tj/misc/slabh-sweep.py

The script does the followings.

* Scan files for gfp and slab usages and update includes such that
  only the necessary includes are there.  ie. if only gfp is used,
  gfp.h, if slab is used, slab.h.

* When the script inserts a new include, it looks at the include
  blocks and try to put the new include such that its order conforms
  to its surrounding.  It's put in the include block which contains
  core kernel includes, in the same order that the rest are ordered -
  alphabetical, Christmas tree, rev-Xmas-tree or at the end if there
  doesn't seem to be any matching order.

* If the script can't find a place to put a new include (mostly
  because the file doesn't have fitting include block), it prints out
  an error message indicating which .h file needs to be added to the
  file.

The conversion was done in the following steps.

1. The initial automatic conversion of all .c files updated slightly
   over 4000 files, deleting around 700 includes and adding ~480 gfp.h
   and ~3000 slab.h inclusions.  The script emitted errors for ~400
   files.

2. Each error was manually checked.  Some didn't need the inclusion,
   some needed manual addition while adding it to implementation .h or
   embedding .c file was more appropriate for others.  This step added
   inclusions to around 150 files.

3. The script was run again and the output was compared to the edits
   from #2 to make sure no file was left behind.

4. Several build tests were done and a couple of problems were fixed.
   e.g. lib/decompress_*.c used malloc/free() wrappers around slab
   APIs requiring slab.h to be added manually.

5. The script was run on all .h files but without automatically
   editing them as sprinkling gfp.h and slab.h inclusions around .h
   files could easily lead to inclusion dependency hell.  Most gfp.h
   inclusion directives were ignored as stuff from gfp.h was usually
   wildly available and often used in preprocessor macros.  Each
   slab.h inclusion directive was examined and added manually as
   necessary.

6. percpu.h was updated not to include slab.h.

7. Build test were done on the following configurations and failures
   were fixed.  CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL was turned off for all tests (as my
   distributed build env didn't work with gcov compiles) and a few
   more options had to be turned off depending on archs to make things
   build (like ipr on powerpc/64 which failed due to missing writeq).

   * x86 and x86_64 UP and SMP allmodconfig and a custom test config.
   * powerpc and powerpc64 SMP allmodconfig
   * sparc and sparc64 SMP allmodconfig
   * ia64 SMP allmodconfig
   * s390 SMP allmodconfig
   * alpha SMP allmodconfig
   * um on x86_64 SMP allmodconfig

8. percpu.h modifications were reverted so that it could be applied as
   a separate patch and serve as bisection point.

Given the fact that I had only a couple of failures from tests on step
6, I'm fairly confident about the coverage of this conversion patch.
If there is a breakage, it's likely to be something in one of the arch
headers which should be easily discoverable easily on most builds of
the specific arch.

Felix Fietkau 4fdec031b9 ath9k: fix BUG_ON triggered by PAE frames
When I initially stumbled upon sequence number problems with PAE frames
in ath9k, I submitted a patch to remove all special cases for PAE
frames and let them go through the normal transmit path.
Out of concern about crypto incompatibility issues, this change was
merged instead:

commit 6c8afef551
Author: Sujith <Sujith.Manoharan@atheros.com>

    ath9k: Fix sequence numbers for PAE frames

After a lot of testing, I'm able to reliably trigger a driver crash on
rekeying with current versions with this change in place.
It seems that the driver does not support sending out regular MPDUs with
the same TID while an A-MPDU session is active.
This leads to duplicate entries in the TID Tx buffer, which hits the
following BUG_ON in ath_tx_addto_baw():

    index  = ATH_BA_INDEX(tid->seq_start, bf->bf_seqno);
    cindex = (tid->baw_head + index) & (ATH_TID_MAX_BUFS - 1);

    BUG_ON(tid->tx_buf[cindex] != NULL);

I believe until we actually have a reproducible case of an
incompatibility with another AP using no PAE special cases, we should
simply get rid of this mess.

This patch completely fixes my crash issues in STA mode and makes it
stay connected without throughput drops or connectivity issues even
when the AP is configured to a very short group rekey interval.

Bruno Randolf 5f13bfac07 ath5k: read eeprom IQ calibration values correctly for G mode
we read the IQ correction values (i_cal and q_cal) for G mode from a wrong
location (the same shifts as for A mode is applied which is incorrect). use
correct locations, matching the docs and HAL sources.

also we should write IQ correction only when we have that information in the
EEPROM, starting from version 4. also write it in the same way as we do in the
periodic recalibration (enable last), just to be sure.

Bruno Randolf 86415d43ef ath5k: fix I/Q calibration (for real)
I/Q calibration was completely broken, resulting in a high number of CRC errors
on received packets. before i could see around 10% to 20% CRC errors, with this
patch they are between 0% and 3%.

1.) the removal of the mask in commit "ath5k: Fix I/Q calibration
(f1cf2dbd0f)" resulted in no mask beeing used
when writing the I/Q values into the register. additional errors in the
calculation of the values (see 2.) resulted too high numbers, exceeding the
masks, so wrong values like 0xfffffffe were written. to be safe we should
always use the bitmask when writing parts of a register.

2.) using a (s32) cast for q_coff is a wrong conversion to signed, since we
convert to a signed value later by substracting 128. this resulted in too low
numbers for Q many times, which were limited to -16 by the boundary check later
on.

3.) checked everything against the HAL sources and took over comments and minor
optimizations from there.

4.) we can't use ENABLE_BITS when we want to write a number (the number can
contain zeros). also always write the correction values first and set ENABLE
bit last, like the HAL does.

Bruno Randolf 8bd8beab49 ath5k: use fixed antenna for tx descriptors
when using a fixed antenna we should use the antenna number in all tx
descriptors, otherwise the hardware will sometimes send the frame out on the
other antenna. it seems like the hardware does not always respect the default
antenna and diversity settings (esp.  AR5K_STA_ID1_DEFAULT_ANTENNA).

also i would like to note that antenna diversity does not always work correctly
on 5414 (at least) when only one antenna is connected: for example all frames
might be received on antenna A but still the HW tries to send on antenna B some
times, causing packet loss.

this is both verified with the antenna statistics output of the previous patch
and a spectrum analyzer.

Sujith 4fa0043731 mac80211: Fix HT rate control configuration
Handling HT configuration changes involved setting the channel
with the new HT parameters and then issuing a rate_update()
notification to the driver.

This behavior changed after the off-channel changes. Now, the channel
is not updated with the new HT params in enable_ht() - instead, it
is now done when the scan work terminates. This results in the driver
depending on stale information, defaulting to non-HT mode always.

Fix this by passing the new channel type to the driver.

Felix Fietkau 7bfbae10dc ath9k: disable RIFS search for AR91xx based chips
While ath9k does not support RIFS yet, the ability to receive RIFS
frames is currently enabled for most chipsets in the initvals.
This is causing baseband related issues on AR9160 and AR9130 based
chipsets, which can lock up under certain conditions.

This patch fixes these issues by overriding the initvals, effectively
disabling RIFS for all affected chipsets.

Felix Fietkau d8728ee919 ath9k: fix beacon timer restart after a card reset
In AP mode, ath_beacon_config_ap only restarts the timer if a TSF
restart is requested. Apparently this was added, because this function
unconditionally sets the flag for TSF reset.

The problem with this is, that ath9k_hw_reset() clobbers the timer
registers (specified in the initvals), thus effectively disabling the
SWBA interrupt whenever a card reset without TSF reset is issued
(happens in a few places in the code).

This patch fixes ath_beacon_config_ap to only issue the TSF reset flag
when necessary, but reinitialize the timer unconditionally. Tests show,
that this is enough to keep the SWBA interrupt going after a call to
ath_reset()

Felix Fietkau 5c0ba62fd4 ath9k: fix rate control fallback rate selection
When selecting the tx fallback rate, rc.c used a separate variable
'nrix' for storing the next rate index, however it did not use that as
reference for further rate index lowering. Because of that, it ended up
reusing the same rate for multiple multi-rate retry stages, thus
decreasing delivery probability under changing link conditions.

This patch removes the separate (unnecessary) variable and fixes
fallback the way it was intended to work.
This should result in increased throughput and better link stability.

Felix Fietkau 42c4568a4a ath9k: add a workaround for ack timeout issues
Adding support for setting the coverage class in some cases broke
association and data transfer, as it overwrote the initial ACK timeout
value from the initvals with a smaller value.
I don't know why the new value works in 5 GHz (matches the initval
there), but not in 2.4 GHz (initvals use 64us here), so until the
problem is fully understood, the value should be increased again.
