Felix Fietkau 6252fcb9f8 ath9k: add a separate debug level for stuck beacons
Stuck beacons are a useful indicator for debugging various PHY
issues such as calibration. Putting them on the same debug level
as the other beacon stuff makes it hard to spot them in huge amounts
of spam.

Ben Hutchings 1ac62ba7c9 mac80211: Don't squash error codes in key setup functions
ieee80211_add_key() currently returns -ENOMEM in case of any error,
including a missing crypto algorithm.  Change ieee80211_key_alloc()
and ieee80211_aes_{key_setup_encrypt,cmac_key_setup}() to encode
errors with ERR_PTR() rather than returning NULL, and change
ieee80211_add_key() accordingly.

Compile-tested only.

Johannes Berg a85d7cca12 iwlwifi: track IBSS manager status
Only the IBSS manager, ie. the station that sent
the IBSS beacon last, should be replying to probe
responses. This requires implementing the mac80211
tx_last_beacon callback, which we can do thanks to
the ucode beacon notification.

Johannes Berg a1699b75a1 mac80211: unify scan and work mutexes
Having both scan and work mutexes is not just
a bit too fine grained, it also creates issues
when there's code that needs both since they
then need to be acquired in the right order,
which can be hard to do.

Therefore, use just a single mutex for both.

Felix Fietkau ffd2778bb9 mac80211: fix driver offchannel notification when the channel does not change
When running in client mode and associating to an AP, the channel
change is usually performed with the offchannel flag still set.
However after the assoc is complete, the following channel change event
is suppressed because the run time channel is already set to the operating channel.
Fix this by sending channel change notifications to the driver even if
only the offchannel flag changes.

This patch implement basic infrastructure to support use of NAPI by
mac80211-based hardware drivers.

Because mac80211 devices can support multiple netdevs, a dummy netdev
is used for interfacing with the NAPI code in the core of the network
stack.  That structure is hidden from the hardware drivers, but the
actual napi_struct is exposed in the ieee80211_hw structure so that the
poll routines in drivers can retrieve that structure.  Hardware drivers
can also specify their own weight value for NAPI polling.

Maxim Levitsky 6ccf15a1a7 ath5k: disable ASPM L0s for all cards
Atheros PCIe wireless cards handled by ath5k do require L0s disabled.
For distributions shipping with CONFIG_PCIEASPM (this will be enabled
by default in the future in 2.6.36) this will also mean both L1 and L0s
will be disabled when a pre 1.1 PCIe device is detected. We do know L1
works correctly even for all ath5k pre 1.1 PCIe devices though but cannot
currently undue the effect of a blacklist, for details you can read
pcie_aspm_sanity_check() and see how it adjusts the device link
capability.

It may be possible in the future to implement some PCI API to allow
drivers to override blacklists for pre 1.1 PCIe but for now it is
best to accept that both L0s and L1 will be disabled completely for
distributions shipping with CONFIG_PCIEASPM rather than having this
issue present. Motivation for adding this new API will be to help
with power consumption for some of these devices.

Example of issues you'd see:

  - On the Acer Aspire One (AOA150, Atheros Communications Inc. AR5001
    Wireless Network Adapter [168c:001c] (rev 01)) doesn't work well
    with ASPM enabled, the card will eventually stall on heavy traffic
    with often 'unsupported jumbo' warnings appearing. Disabling
    ASPM L0s in ath5k fixes these problems.

  - On the same card you would see a storm of RXORN interrupts
    even though medium is idle.

Credit for root causing and fixing the bug goes to Jussi Kivilinna.

Some APs advertise that they may be HT40 capable in the capabilites
but the current operating channel configuration may be only HT20.
This causes disconnection as ath9k_htc sets WLAN_RC_40_FLAG despite

Hence set this flag only if the current channel configuration

Mat Martineau db12d647cc Bluetooth: Use 3-DH5 payload size for default ERTM max PDU size
The previous value of 672 for L2CAP_DEFAULT_MAX_PDU_SIZE is based on
the default L2CAP MTU.  That default MTU is calculated from the size
of two DH5 packets, minus ACL and L2CAP b-frame header overhead.

ERTM is used with newer basebands that typically support larger 3-DH5
packets, and i-frames and s-frames have more header overhead.  With
clean RF conditions, basebands will typically attempt to use 1021-byte
3-DH5 packets for maximum throughput.  Adjusting for 2 bytes of ACL
headers plus 10 bytes of worst-case L2CAP headers yields 1009 bytes
of payload.

This PDU size imposes less overhead for header bytes and gives the
baseband the option to choose 3-DH5 packets, but is small enough for
ERTM traffic to interleave well with other L2CAP or SCO data.
672-byte payloads do not allow the most efficient over-the-air
packet choice, and cannot achieve maximum throughput over BR/EDR.

remote_tx_win is intended to be set on receipt of an L2CAP
configuration request.  The value is used to determine the size of the
transmit window on the remote side of an ERTM connection, so L2CAP
can stop sending frames when that remote window is full.

An incorrect remote_tx_win value will cause the stack to not fully
utilize the tx window (performance impact), or to overfill the remote
tx window (causing dropped frames or a disconnect).

This patch removes an extra setting of remote_tx_win when a
configuration response is received.  The transmit window has a
different meaning in a response - it is an informational value
less than or equal to the local tx_win.

Mat Martineau 86b1b26326 Bluetooth: Fix endianness issue with L2CAP MPS configuration
Incoming configuration values must be converted to native CPU order
before use.  This fixes a bug where a little-endian MPS value is
compared to a native CPU value.  On big-endian processors, this
can cause ERTM and streaming mode segmentation to produce PDUs
that are larger than the remote stack is expecting, or that would
produce fragmented skbs that the current FCS code cannot handle.

Johannes Berg 94597ab23e iwlagn: fix rts cts protection
Currently the driver will try to protect all frames,
which leads to a lot of odd things like sending an
RTS with a zeroed RA before multicast frames, which
is clearly bogus.

In order to fix all of this, we need to take a step
back and see what we need to achieve:
 * we need RTS/CTS protection if requested by
   the AP for the BSS, mac80211 tells us this
 * in that case, CTS-to-self should only be
   enabled when mac80211 tells us
 * additionally, as a hardware workaround, on
   some devices we have to protect aggregated
   frames with RTS

To achieve the first two items, set up the RXON
accordingly and set the protection required flag
in the transmit command when mac80211 requests
protection for the frame.

To achieve the last item, set the rate-control
RTS-requested flag for all stations that we have
aggregation sessions with, and set the protection
required flag when sending aggregated frames (on
those devices where this is required).

Since otherwise bugs can occur, do not allow the
user to override the RTS-for-aggregation setting
from sysfs any more.

Finally, also clean up the way all these flags get
set in the driver and move everything into the
device-specific functions.

Jeff Kirsher 2d0bb1c1f4 e100/e1000*/igb*/ixgb*: Add missing read memory barrier
Based on patches from Sonny Rao and Milton Miller...

Combined the patches to fix up clean_tx_irq and clean_rx_irq.

The PowerPC architecture does not require loads to independent bytes
to be ordered without adding an explicit barrier.

In ixgbe_clean_rx_irq we load the status bit then load the packet data.
With packet split disabled if these loads go out of order we get a
stale packet, but we will notice the bad sequence numbers and drop it.

The problem occurs with packet split enabled where the TCP/IP header
and data are in different descriptors. If the reads go out of order
we may have data that doesn't match the TCP/IP header. Since we use
hardware checksumming this bad data is never verified and it makes it
all the way to the application.

This bug was found during stress testing and adding this barrier has
been shown to fix it.  The bug can manifest as a data integrity issue
(bad payload data) or as a BUG in skb_pull().

This was a nasty bug to hunt down, if people agree with the fix I think
it's a candidate for stable.

Previously Submitted to e1000-devel only for ixgbe

http://marc.info/?l=e1000-devel&m=126593062701537&w=3

We've now seen this problem hit with other device drivers (e1000e mostly)
So I'm resubmitting with fixes for other Intel Device Drivers with
similar issues.
