Julia Lawall 3f9a79b5bb mwl8k: use ether_addr_equal_64bits
Ether_addr_equal_64bits is more efficient than ether_addr_equal, and can be
used when each argument is an array within a structure that contains at
least two bytes of data beyond the array.

The structures involved are:
ieee80211_hdr defined in include/linux/ieee80211.h and
mwl8k_priv defined in drivers/net/wireless/mwl8k.c

This was done using Coccinelle (http://coccinelle.lip6.fr/).

Jingoo Han e53c61a055 wireless: mwl8k: remove unnecessary pci_set_drvdata()
The driver core clears the driver data to NULL after device_release
or on probe failure. Thus, it is not needed to manually clear the

Nishant Sarmukadam bbf71a8f35 mwl8k: Fix the firmware hang issue for 8764
The firmware hang issue is not seen very often,
though it is still seen sometimes (once in 12
hours in local tests). The changes in the driver
,to interrupt the firmware, are needed when we
detect that firmware is stuck and when the host
queues are full and we begin to drop packets.
This is to ensure that the firmware does not
miss any PPA_RDY interrupts to cause the firmware
restart dont miss PPA_READY interrupt for SC2

Jonas Gorski 3f524559cf mwl8k: remove nonstandard rate 72 Mbps
This rate causes an overflow in the extended rates IE's data rate field,
with the overflowing bit setting the Basic Rate Set membership. This
results in a bogus 8 Mpbs basic rate, making clients checking them refuse
association.

Since the rate is likely unused anyway (HT will yield better rates between
supporting chips), we can just remove it.

This fixes association from wpa_supplicant and Android 4.x and newer.

Jonas Gorski fe21bb02ca mwl8k: always apply configuration even when device is idle
Fix settings not being applied when the device is idle and the firmware
gets reloaded (because of changing from STA to AP mode). This caused
the device using the wrong channel (and likely band), e.g. a 5 GHz only
card still defaulted to channel 6 in the 2.4 GHz band when left
unconfigured.

This issue was always present, but only made visible with "mwl8k: Do not
call mwl8k_cmd_set_rf_channel unconditionally" (0f4316b9), since before
that the channel was (re-)configured at the next _config call even when
it did not change from the mac80211 perspective.

Jonas Gorski c3f251a317 mwl8k: don't overwrite regulatory settings on fw reload
Currently the caps are parsed on every firmware reload, causing any
channel flags to be cleared.
When there is a firmware to interface mode mismatch, the triggered
firmware reload causes a reset of the regulatory settings, causing all
channels to become available:

Jonas Gorski d786f67e5c mwl8k: fix band for supported channels
The band field for the supported channels were left unpopulated, making
them default to 0 == IEEE80211_BAND_2GHZ, even for the 5GHz channels.

This resulted in null pointer accesses if anything tries to access
wiphy->bands[channel->band] of a 5GHz channel on 5GHz only cards, since
wiphy->bands[2GHZ] is NULL for them (e.g. cfg80211_chandef_usable does).

Currently, command path waits till all the tx host queues

expects driver to destroy ampdu queues immediately.

This requires corresponding commands i.e.

sent without waiting for the tx queues to be completely
empty.

Use "watchdog_event_pending" to ensure the above mentioned

Ampdu stream index can be derived from stream->idx.
So we no longer need stream->txq_idx, hence removing it.

Johannes Berg 18b559d5db mac80211: split TX aggregation stop action
When TX aggregation is stopped, there are a few
different cases:
 - connection with the peer was dropped
 - session stop was requested locally
 - session stop was requested by the peer
 - connection was dropped while a session is stopping

The behaviour in these cases should be different, if
the connection is dropped then the driver should drop
all frames, otherwise the frames may continue to be
transmitted, aggregated in the case of a locally
requested session stop or unaggregated in the case of
the peer requesting session stop.

Split these different cases so that the driver can
act accordingly; however, treat local and remote stop
the same way and ask the driver to not send frames as
aggregated packets any more.

In the case of connection drop, the stop callback the
driver is otherwise supposed to call is no longer
required.

Yogesh Ashok Powar f95275c48b mwl8k: Send BASTREAM firmware commands per vif
The firmware supports 8 macid's corresponding to 8 BSS that can be
created in an MBSS environment. Currently, BASTREAM commands were always
sent with macid 0. This macid is used to configure the hardware ampdu
registers with appropriate BSS address in an MBSS environment.
This mac address is used by the hardware for various ampdu related requirements
e.g. source address in BAR generation, BA interpretation e.t.c.
Using invalid macid results in this mac address not getting appropriately
configured in the hardware which results in issues during ampdu traffic.

Fix this by sending the BASTREAM commands with appropriate macid.

Nishant Sarmukadam b8d9e572cb mwl8k: Set packet timestamp to 0 when life time expiry is not used
Set tx packet timestamp to 0 in following scenarios:-
- All packets in STA mode
- Mgmt packets in AP mode
- Eapol packets in AP mode

In STA mode, this field is unused in the firmware. In AP
mode, we should not be expiring mgmt and eapol frames.
Setting timestamp to 0 will ensure that.

Yogesh Ashok Powar fd712f5f5e mwl8k: recheck if station still has valid rates
We have 6.5 Mbps is minimum rate of the link
as the criterion for creation of BA.

Although we check this before creating the BA
stream, by the time amdpu_action is called from
the workqueue, the link can get affected in the
meantime.
Hence, add an additional check in amdpu_action.

Thomas Huehn 36323f817a mac80211: move TX station pointer and restructure TX
Remove the control.sta pointer from ieee80211_tx_info to free up
sufficient space in the TX skb control buffer for the upcoming
Transmit Power Control (TPC).
Instead, the pointer is now on the stack in a new control struct
that is passed as a function parameter to the drivers' tx method.
