The calculated values for the ACK timeout and ACK
consume time are different then the values as
used by the Legacy drivers.
After testing from James Ledwith it appeared that
the calculated values caused a high amount of TX
failures, and the values from the Legacy drivers
were the most optimal to prevent TX failure due to
excessive retries.
The symptoms of this problem:
- Rate control module always falls back to 1Mbs
- Low throughput when bitrate was fixed
Possible side-effects (not confirmed but highly likely)
- Problems with DHCP
- Broken connections due to lack of probe response
This should fix at least:
Kernel bugzilla reports: [13362], [13009], [9273]
Fedora bugzilla reports: [443203]
but possible some additional bugs as well.

When the driver receives "connection terminated" event from device,
it could be caused by 2 reasons: the firmware is roaming or the
connection is lost (AP disappears). For the former, an association
complete event is supposed to come within 3 seconds. For the latter,
the driver won't receive any event except the connection terminated.
So we kick a delayed work (5*HZ) when we receive the connection
terminated event. It will be canceled if it turns out to be a roaming
event later. Otherwise we notify SME and userspace the disconnection.

The old function rt2x00queue_payload_align() handled
both adding and removing L2 padding and some basic
frame alignment. The entire function was being abused
because it had multiple functions and the header length
argument was somtimes used to align the header instead
of the payload.
Additionally there was a bug when inserting L2 padding
that only the payload was aligned but not the header. This
happens when the header wasn't aligned properly by mac80211,
but rt2x00lib only moves the payload.
A secondary problem was that when removing L2 padding during

Some concerns were raised about the automatic adjustment
of sleep intervals to all the same, potentially high,
value, and I can imagine the hardware behaving better
when we don't ask too much of it.
So let's convert to use a succession of sleep levels
when requesting to go to deeper sleeps (which can only
happen with large DTIM intervals), using the succession
values from power level three, which have the benefit of
also having been tested extensively already.
As a result, the automatic sleep level adjustment will
now be mostly equivalent to power level three, except
for the RX/TX timeouts and possibly using smaller sleep
vectors to account for networking latency.

For HT packets, mac80211 expects the rate_idx to be an MCS number, which is the
lower byte of rate_n_flags. However, iwl_hwrate_to_plcp_idx takes the MCS
number and reduces it down to the range 0-8 (6 to 60 Mbps), removing the bits
that signify multiply streams, HT40 Duplicate mode, or unequal modulation.
This version is used for various internal purposes through the driver.
Add the function iwl_hwrate_get_mac80211_idx, an alternate version which takes
the rate and the band and returns the mac80211 index (MCS, for HT packets, and

Refactor and correct rate selection for outgoing transmitted
packets.
First, note that HT rates in the mac80211 rate table do not provide valid
indices when ieee80211_get_tx_rate is called; the check to see if we could to
abort a transmission early in iwl_tx_skb() would thus occasionally read invalid
memory and occasionally stall transmission (if the erroneous byte was 0xff).
We remove that code; the check wasn't valid anyway.
Second, iwl_tx_cmd_build_rate() also called ieee80211_get_tx_rate to be used
for sending management packets, which do not use the uCode station table. This
patch refactors that function and adds comments to enhance legibility, replaces

Commit 1ccb84d87d04df3c76cd4352fe69786d8c7cf016 by Wey-Yi Guy
("iwlwifi: clean up unused NL80211_IFTYPE_MONITOR for Monitor mode")
broke injection of non-broadcast frames to unassociated stations
(causing a SYSASSERT for all such injected frames), due to injected
frames no longer automatically getting a broadcast station ID assigned.
This patch restores the old behavior, fixing the aforementioned
regression.
Also, consistently check for IEEE80211_TX_CTL_INJECTED instead of
iwl_is_monitor_mode in the TX path, as TX_CTL_INJECTED specifically
means that a given packet is coming from a monitor interface, while
iwl_is_monitor_mode only shows whether a monitor interface exists
on the device.

The CF8305 is a very old silicon running firmware version 3.0 . This card also
needs some special treatment as it's so old it can't do unaligned register
access. But since that happens only at one place, there were no changes made to
the register access functions, but instead that particular place was fixed.
Also, this card uses only one-stage firmware which is loaded the same way as
helper firmware. The second-stage firmware isn't loaded on this card and doesn't
therefore have to be supplied.

The patch "mac80211: fix PS-poll response race" somehow broke
broadcast buffering in a funny way.
During normal operation - stations are awake - the firmware refused
to transmit broadcast frames and reported P54_TX_PSM_CANCELLED.
But everything worked as soon as one station entered PSM.
The reason:
The stack sets IEEE80211_TX_CTL_SEND_AFTER_DTIM for outgoing
broadcast frames as soon as a station is marked as sleeping.
This flag triggers a path which will reroute these frames
into p54's "content after beacon" queue, which is designed
to cope with the demands for psm.
This patch restores the old behavior.
IEEE80211_TX_CTL_CLEAR_PS_FILT will once again be used to signalize
the firmware to ignore the ps canceling for certain frames.

Bartlomiej Zolnierkiewicz reported an atomic order-6 allocation failure
for ipw2200 firmware loading in kernel 2.6.30. High order allocation is
likely to fail and should always be avoided.
The patch fixes this problem by replacing the original order-6
pci_alloc_consistent() with an array of order-1 pages from a pci pool.
This utilized the ipw2200 DMA command blocks (up to 64 slots). The
maximum firmware size support remains the same (64*8K).

RTL8187B always needs MSR_LINK_ENEDCA flag to be set even when it is in
no link mode, otherwise it'll not be able to associate when this flag is
not set after the change "mac80211: fix managed mode BSSID handling".
By accident, setting BSSID of AP before association makes 8187B to
successfuly associate even when ENEDCA flag isn't set, which was the
case before the mac80211 change. But now the BSSID of AP we are trying
to associate is only available after association is successful, and
any attempt to associate without the needed flag doesn't work.

The current mwl8k_priv->fw_lock spinlock doesn't actually protect
against multiple commands being submitted at once, as it is not kept
held over the entire firmware command submission. And since waiting
for command completion sleeps, we can't use a spinlock anyway.
To fix mwl8k firmware command serialisation properly, we have the
following requirements:
- Some commands require that the packet transmit path is idle when
the command is issued. (For simplicity, we'll just quiesce the
transmit path for every command.)
- There are certain sequences of commands that need to be issued to
the hardware sequentially, with no other intervening commands.
This leads to an implementation of a "firmware lock" as a mutex that
can be taken recursively, and which is taken by both the low-level
command submission function (mwl8k_post_cmd) as well as any users of
that function that require issuing of an atomic sequence of commands,
and quiesces the transmit path whenever it's taken.
