Vasanthakumar Thiagarajan e5348a1e33 ath6kl: Make sure wiphy is registered before calling regulatory_hint()
As regulatory events are processed even before the wiphy is registered,
calling regulatory_hint() at early stage should be fixed.

Vasanthakumar Thiagarajan 13423c3119 ath6kl: Make foreground scan a deterministic one
This makes the device get into scan state as soon as a
scan request is received, instead of blocking the scan
request till the traffic comes down. It is  necessary
for the deterministic foreground scan particularly when
having multiple vif operating where, if the scan is non-
deterministic, scan on one interface will not start
as long as there are traffic on the other interface. This
change passes 50 msec as foreground scan interval to fix this.

Johannes Berg 8860020e0b cfg80211: restructure AP/GO mode API
The AP/GO mode API isn't very clearly defined, it
has "set beacon" and "new beacon" etc.

Modify the API to the following:
 * start AP -- all settings
 * change beacon -- new beacon data
 * stop AP -- stop AP mode operation

This also reflects in the nl80211 API, rename
the commands there correspondingly (but keep
the old names for compatibility.)

Overall, this makes it much clearer what's going
on in the API.

Kalle developed the ath6kl changes, I created
the rest of the patch.

Raja Mani 081c7a84e9 ath6kl: Wait for host sleep mode cmd processed event during WOW suspend
For every WMI_SET_HOST_SLEEP_MODE_CMDID command (send from the host),
the firmware sends WMI_SET_HOST_SLEEP_MODE_CMD_PROCESSED_EVENTID as
an acknowledgement to the host.

In order to being sync with the firmware, the host has to wait for
WMI_SET_HOST_SLEEP_MODE_CMD_PROCESSED_EVENT event before going to
the suspend state. This patch ensures ath6kl_wow_suspend() waits
until it gets this event after sending set host sleep mode command.

This patch adds,
 * New command WMI_SET_HOST_SLEEP_MODE_CMD_PROCESSED_EVENTID in
   WMI event table.
 * New WMI function ath6kl_wmi_host_sleep_mode_cmd_prcd_evt_rx()
   to process the event.
 * New flag HOST_SLEEP_MODE_CMD_PROCESSED in VIF flags to record
   the arrival of the event.

Raja Mani d91e8eee04 ath6kl: Configure WOW patterns while going to wow_suspend
First preference is given to the user configured WOW patterns.
If the user doesn't configure any patterns (for ex, via iw command),
the default patterns will be configured based on the current mode
(vif->nw_type) while going to WOW suspend.

Summary of changes:

  * ath6kl_wow_ap() is added to configure the below default
    patterns when the system enters into WOW suspend in AP mode.
      + Unicast IP, EAPOL-like and ARP packet pattern
      + ARP packet pattern
      + mDNS/SSDP/LLMNR pattern
      + DHCP broadcast pattern

 * ath6kl_wow_sta() is added to configure the below default
   patterns when the system enters into WOW suspend in STA mode.
      + Unicast packet pattern
      + mDNS/SSDP/LLMNR pattern

  * Move the user provided WOW patterns configuration code
    from ath6kl_wow_suspend() to a separate function called
    ath6kl_wow_usr().

  * Two argument variable's ('filter' and 'mask) data type in
    ath6kl_wmi_add_wow_pattern_cmd() are changed from 'u8 *' to
    'const u8 *'. This is needed to make all pattern and mask
    arrays to be 'static const u8' in the caller function.

  * New conditional check is added to make sure user
    configured pattern count is within the limit (WOW_MAX_FILTERS_PER_LIST).

* A new APSD power save queue is added in the station structure.
* When a station has APSD capability and goes to power save, the frame
  designated to the station will be buffered in APSD queue.
* When the host receives a frame which the firmware marked as trigger,
  host delivers the buffered frame from the APSD power save queue.
  Number of frames to deliver is decided by MAX SP length.
* When a station moves from sleep to awake state, all frames buffered
  in APSD power save queue are sent to the firmware.
* When a station is disconnected, all frames bufferes in APSD power save
  queue are dropped.
* When the host queues the first frame to the APSD queue or removes the
  last frame from the APSD queue, it is indicated to the firmware using
  WMI_AP_APSD_BUFFERED_TRAFFIC_CMD.

Sujith Manoharan 8232736dab ath6kl: Fix listen interval handling
This patch addresses a few problems with the commit:

"ath6kl: Implement support for listen interval from userspace"

* The debugfs file required for reading/writing the listen interval
  wasn't created. Fix this.

* The interface index was being hardcoded to zero. Fix this.

* Two separate parameters, "listen_interval_time and listen_interval_beacons"
  were being used. This fails to work as expected because the FW assigns
  higher precedence to "listen_interval_beacons" and "listen_interval_time"
  ends up being never used at all.

  To handle this, fix the host driver to exclusively use listen interval
  based on units of beacon intervals.

To set the listen interval, a user would now do something like this:

echo "10" > /sys/kernel/debug/ieee80211/*/ath6kl/listen_interval

Aarthi Thiruvengadam 3ca9d1fc9a ath6kl: support for P2P mgmt operations on station interface
This patch enables support for doing P2P management operations like device
discovery on top of a station interface. After group formation, the station
interface will become a P2P GO/client interface as the case may be.

This feature requires modifications to a couple of existing WMI structures and
therefore new command ids and structures have been defined in order to be
compatible with older firmware versions and other chips. The exception here is
the wmi_connect_cmd. Adding a new field to the end of the structure will not
cause any issues with previous firmware versions since firmware only checks for
minimum length of the command. The other structures are of variable length,
hence it was not possible to add new fields to the end.

The new command ids have to be added to the end of enum wmi_cmd_id, so it has
updated to match the firmware.

The driver will support both the 'old' and the 'new' commands for a while by
checking the firmware capabilities.

Vasanthakumar Thiagarajan f143379dbf ath6kl: Find ar->max_norm_iface in firmware IE parsing
Currently the max number of vifs which can be used for non-p2p

supported vifs are parsed from firmware IE in ath6kl_fetch_fw_api2()
which would happen after ath6kl_core_alloc().

Vasanthakumar Thiagarajan 774439ad88 ath6kl: Remove modparam multi_norm_if_support
This modparam was introduced to enable non-p2p mode operation
on two virtual interfaces. It does not seem to be necessary to
have a separate module parameter to do that. Instead, this option
can be enabled when any one of the interfaces is not going to be
used for p2p (ath6kl_p2p).

Vasanthakumar Thiagarajan 59500b4864 ath6kl: Fix AP mode operation after interface down/up
When operating AP interface is brough down the mode is reset to
STA. This STA will be reconfigured into AP mode when the interface
is brought up again. This sequence will be successful only when
change_virtual_intf() returns with no error, but there is a
check in this callback which does the type change only when
that interface is active. This callback does nothing more
than saving the new interface type to vif and wdev, so the
sanity check for interface state and wmi state is not necessary.
This makes the AP interface functional again after interface down/up.

  (&(&ar->lock)->rlock){+.-...}, at: [<ffffffffa0492d13>] ath6kl_indicate_tx_activity+0x83/0x110 [ath6kl]
 but this lock took another, SOFTIRQ-unsafe lock in the past:
  (&(&ar->list_lock)->rlock){+.+...}

 and interrupts could create inverse lock ordering between them.

 other info that might help us debug this:
  Possible interrupt unsafe locking scenario:

        CPU0                    CPU1
        ----                    ----
   lock(&(&ar->list_lock)->rlock);

   <Interrupt>
     lock(&(&ar->lock)->rlock);

  *** DEADLOCK ***

softirqs have to be disabled when acquiring ar->list_lock to avoid
the above deadlock condition. When the above warning printed the
interface is still up and running without issue.

Also fix a bug where we were comparing firmware scan status values

that ath6kl didn't detect when firmware informed about failed scans. I
doubt that this fix doesn't make any difference in practise but it
still needs to be fixed. This is fixed by adding an enum for the success

Jouni Malinen 01cac476a4 ath6kl: Fix BSS update on roaming
This fixes the BSS "update" just before the connected or roamed event.
The previous implementation was completely broken: it forced a hardcoded
signal strength and IEs from Association _Request_ frame instead of any
Beacon information. This broke various things, including PMKSA caching.

The current workaround for creating a dummy BSS entry before the roamed
event is not exactly ideal, but that is quite a bit better than the
previous state. As a future improvement, cfg80211 could potentially be
extended to allow this type of use or ath6kl could delay sending the
roamed event before receiving a BSS info event.

Sometimes, the network manager is failing to connect to the AP due
to the below kernel crash message. The reason behind this,
after issuing the connect command to the chip, the chip is sending
disconnect event and then immediately one connect event to the host
in some random cases.

The host driver resets all states (including cfg80211 state machine)
when it receives disconnect event from the chip. But, still the host
driver reports the next received connect event to cfg80211, at that time
cfg80211 SME state would have been in IDLE state, which was causing
the below kernel crash.

Now, host driver's sme state machine is checked every time before
delivering connect event to cfg80211

Kalle Valo 6fd1eacec1 ath6kl: fix crash when interface is closed but scan is ongoing
When ath6kl module was removed while a scan was ongoing the driver would
crash in ath6kl_cfg80211_scan_complete_event().

Fix the function not to iterate nodes when the scan is aborted. The nodes
are already freed when the module is being unloaded. This patch removes the
null check entirely as the wmi structure is not accessed anymore during
module unload.

Also fix a bug where the status was checked as a bitfield with '&' operator.
But it's not a bitfield, just a regular error code.

This is a port of my patch from ath6kl staging with the same title.

Kalle Valo cf104c2a20 ath6kl: fix atomicity in ath6kl_cfg80211_scan_node()
ath6kl_cfg80211_scan_node() was calling cfg80211_inform_bss_frame()
with CFP_KERNEL but the function is executed with a spin lock taken.
This is wrong and the function must use GFP_ATOMIC instead.

Kalle Valo b2c76bbe00 ath6kl: don't force foreground scan when connected
In my setup data transfer stalls when there's data transmission during
scan. After some testing I found out that using background scan
when connected to makes the problem go away. This is more like
a workaround than a proper fix, but as the stall is so severe the
workaround is justified.

With a dual band card this increases scan time when connected from
1.9s to 4.4s. When not connected the scan time is not affected and
is the same 1.9s.

Kalle Valo bdcd817079 Add ath6kl cleaned up driver
Last May we started working on cleaning up ath6kl driver which is
currently in staging. The work has happened in a separate
ath6kl-cleanup tree:

http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/kvalo/ath6kl-cleanup.git;a=summary

After over 1100 (!) patches we have now reached a state where I would
like to start discussing about pushing the driver to the wireless
trees and replacing the staging driver.

The driver is now a lot smaller and looks like a proper Linux driver.
The size of the driver (measured with simple wc -l) dropped from 49
kLOC to 18 kLOC and the number of the .c and .h files dropped from 107
to 22. Most importantly the number of subdirectories reduced from 26
to zero :)

There are two remaining checkpatch warnings in the driver which we
decided to omit for now:

drivers/net/wireless/ath/ath6kl/debug.c:31:
  WARNING: printk() should include KERN_ facility level
drivers/net/wireless/ath/ath6kl/sdio.c:527:
  WARNING: msleep < 20ms can sleep for up to 20ms;
  see Documentation/timers/timers-howto.txt

The driver has endian annotations for all the hardware specific
structures and there are no sparse errors. Unfortunately I don't have
any big endian hardware to test that right now.

We have been testing the driver both on x86 and arm platforms. The
code is also compiled with sparc and parisc cross compilers.

Notable missing features compared to the current staging driver are:

o HCI over SDIO support
o nl80211 testmode
o firmware logging
o suspend support

Testmode, firmware logging and suspend support will be added soon. HCI
over SDIO support will be more difficult as the HCI driver needs to
share code with the wifi driver. This is something we need to research
more.

Also I want to point out the changes I did for signed endian support.
As I wasn't able to find any support for signed endian annotations I
decided to follow what NTFS has done and added my own. Grep for sle16
and sle32, especially from wmi.h.

Various people have been working on the cleanup, the hall of
fame based on number of patches is:
