Unloading rt61pci can leave the device in such state that reloading
rt61pci would fail to reinitialize it. Bogus data would be read from
the EEPROM and the RF version won't be recognized.
It appears that unloading rt61pci with power saving enabled would have
such effect. To initialize the device properly, SOFT_RESET_CSR should
be set to the same value as rt61pci_config_ps() uses to wake up the

As shown in http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.kernel.wireless.general/36497,
mac80211 has a bug that allows a call to the TX routine after the queues have
been stopped. This situation will only occur under extreme stress. Although
b43legacy does not crash when this condition occurs, it does generate a WARN_ON
and also logs a queue overrun message. This patch recognizes b43legacy is not
at fault and logs a message only when the most verbose debugging mode is
enabled. In the unlikely event that the queue is not stopped when the DMA
queue becomes full, then a warning is issued.
This patch is based on the one used by b43.

The mac80211 workqueue exists to enable mac80211 and drivers
to queue their own work on a single threaded workqueue. mac80211
takes care to flush the workqueue during suspend but we never
really had requirements on drivers for how they should use
the workqueue in consideration for suspend.
We extend mac80211 to document how the mac80211 workqueue should
be used, how it should not be used and finally move raw access to
the workqueue to mac80211 only. Drivers and mac80211 use helpers
to queue work onto the mac80211 workqueue:
* ieee80211_queue_work()
* ieee80211_queue_delayed_work()
These helpers will now warn if mac80211 already completed its
suspend cycle and someone is trying to queue work. mac80211
flushes the mac80211 workqueue prior to suspend a few times,
but we haven't taken the care to ensure drivers won't add more
work after suspend. To help with this we add a warning when
someone tries to add work and mac80211 already completed the
suspend cycle.
Drivers should ensure they cancel any work or delayed work
in the mac80211 stop() callback.

Previously, we would store the operating mode at interface up time,
but only update the PCU registers when the next reset happened.
The result is that if beacon configuration (ops->bss_info_changed)
happens before ops->config, we will program the wrong things into
the timer registers. Consequently, beacons won't work in AP mode
until after a reset (channel change, scan etc.).
This is fragile anyway so just program the opmode as soon as
mac80211 gives it to us.

A regression was added through patch a4ed90d6:
"cfg80211: respect API on orig_flags on channel for beacon hint"
We did indeed respect _orig flags but the intention was not clearly
stated in the commit log. This patch fixes firmware issues picked
up by iwlwifi when we lift passive scan of beaconing restrictions
on channels its EEPROM has been configured to always enable.
By doing so though we also disallowed beacon hints on devices
registering their wiphy with custom world regulatory domains
enabled, this happens to be currently ath5k, ath9k and ar9170.
The passive scan and beacon restrictions on those devices would
never be lifted even if we did find a beacon and the hardware did
support such enhancements when world roaming.
Since Johannes indicates iwlwifi firmware cannot be changed to
allow beacon hinting we set up a flag now to specifically allow
drivers to disable beacon hints for devices which cannot use them.
We enable the flag on iwlwifi to disable beacon hints and by default
enable it for all other drivers. It should be noted beacon hints lift
passive scan flags and beacon restrictions when we receive a beacon from
an AP on any 5 GHz non-DFS channels, and channels 12-14 on the 2.4 GHz
band. We don't bother with channels 1-11 as those channels are allowed
world wide.
This should fix world roaming for ath5k, ath9k and ar9170, thereby
improving scan time when we receive the first beacon from any AP,
and also enabling beaconing operation (AP/IBSS/Mesh) on cards which
would otherwise not be allowed to do so. Drivers not using custom
regulatory stuff (wiphy_apply_custom_regulatory()) were not affected
by this as the orig_flags for the channels would have been cleared
upon wiphy registration.
I tested this with a world roaming ath5k card.

Commit "iwlwifi: Handle new firmware file with ucode build number
in header" introduced new ucode header parsing routines, but
neglected to initialize these routines for 1000. The system thus goes
into infinite loop trying to load ucode, failing every time with a null
pointer exception as it tries to parse the header.

Several arrays were read before checking whether the index was within
bounds. ARRAY_SIZE() should be used to determine the size of arrays.
rates->rates has an arraysize of 1, so calling get_common_rates()
with a rates_size of MAX_RATES (14) was causing reads out of bounds.
tmp_size can increment at most to (ARRAY_SIZE(lbs_bg_rates) - 1) *
(*rates_size - 1), so that should be the number of elements of tmp[].
A goto can be eliminated: ret was already set upon its declaration.

The current command sending in iwlwifi is a bit of a mess:
1) there is a struct, iwl_cmd, that contains both driver
and device data in a single packed structure -- this
is very confusing
2) the on-stack data and the command metadata share a
structure by embedding the latter in the former, which
is also rather confusing because it leads to weird
unions and similarly odd constructs
3) each txq always has enough space for 256 commands,
even if only 32 end up being used
This patch fixes these things:
1) rename iwl_cmd to iwl_device_cmd and keep track of
command metadata and device command separately, in
two arrays in each tx queue
2) remove the 'meta' member from iwl_host_cmd and only
put in the required members
3) allocate the cmd/meta arrays separately instead of
embedding them into the txq structure

Thermal Throttling feature is used to put NIC into low power state when

Two Thermal Throttling Management Methods; this patch introduce the
Legacy Thermal Management:
IWL_TI_0: normal temperature, system power state
IWL_TI_1: high temperature detect, low power state
IWL_TI_2: higher temperature detected, lower power state
IWL_TI_CT_KILL: critical temperature detected, lowest power state
Once get into CT_KILL state, uCode go into sleep, driver will stop all
the active queues, then move to IWL_TI_CT_KILL state; also set up 5
seconds timer to toggle CSR flag, uCode wake up upon CSR flag change,
then measure the temperature.
If temperature is above CT_KILL exit threshold, uCode go backto sleep;
if temperature is below CT_KILL exit threshold, uCode send Card State
Notification response with appropriate CT_KILL status flag, and uCode
remain awake, Driver receive Card State Notification Response and update
the card temperature to the CT_KILL exit threshold.

If advance thermal throttling is used the driver need to pass both
"enter" and "exit" temperature to uCode.
Using different critical temperature threshold for legacy and advance
thermal throttling management based on the type of thermal throttling
method is used except 1000.
For 1000, it use advance thermal throttling critical temperature
threshold, but with legacy thermal management implementation until ucode

I had a problem on 4965 hardware (well, probably other hardware too,
but others don't survive my stress testing right now, unfortunately)
where the driver was sending invalid commands to the device, but no
such thing could be seen from the driver's point of view. I could
reproduce this fairly easily by sending multiple TCP streams with
iperf on different TIDs, though sometimes a single iperf stream was
sufficient. It even happened with a single core, but I have forced
preemption turned on.
The culprit was a queue overrun, where we advanced the queue's write
pointer over the read pointer. After careful analysis I've come to
the conclusion that the cause is a race condition between iwlwifi
and mac80211.
mac80211, of course, checks whether the queue is stopped, before
transmitting a frame. This effectively looks like this:
lock(queues)
if (stopped(queue)) {
unlock(queues)
return busy;
}
unlock(queues)
... <-- this place will be important
there is some more code here
drv_tx(frame)
The driver, on the other hand, can stop and start queues, which does
lock(queues)
mark_running/stopped(queue)
unlock(queues)
[if marked running: wake up tasklet to send pending frames]
Now, however, once the driver starts the queue, mac80211 can see that
and end up at the marked place above, at which point for some reason the
driver seems to stop the queue again (I don't understand that) and then
we end up transmitting while the queue is actually full.
Now, this shouldn't actually matter much, but for some reason I've seen
it happen multiple times in a row and the queue actually overflows, at
which point the queue bites itself in the tail and things go completely
wrong.
This patch fixes this by just dropping the packet should this have
happened, and making the lock in iwlwifi cover everything so iwlwifi
can't race against itself (dropping the lock there might make it more
likely, but it did seem to happen without that too).
Since we can't hold the lock across drv_tx() above, I see no way to fix
this in mac80211, but I also don't understand why I haven't seen this
before -- maybe I just never stress tested it this badly.
With this patch, the device has survived many minutes of simultanously
sending two iperf streams on different TIDs with combined throughput
of about 60 Mbps.

* Deprecate the "debug50" module parameter used to obtain
5000 series and up debugging. Replace it with "debug" module
parameter to match with original driver and be consistent
between them. The "debug50" module parameter can still be used,
except that the module parameter is not writable in keeping
with its previous state. We currently just mark it as "deprecated"
and do not have it in the feature-removal-schedule. Some more
cleanup of module parameters needs to be done and can then be
entered together.
* Only make "debug" module parameters visible if the driver
is compiled with CONFIG_IWLWIFI_DEBUG. This will eliminate
a lot of confusion where users think they have set debug flags
but yet cannot see any debug output.
* Make module parameters writable. This eliminates the need for the
"debug_level" sysfs file, which can now also be deprecated and
added to feature-removal-schedule. This file is in significant
use though with many iwlwifi documents and text referring users
to it. We can thus not take its removal lightly and keep it around.
With iwlcore shared between iwlagn and iwl3945 we really do not need
debug module parameters for each but can instead have one debug
module parameter for the iwlcore module. The same issue is here as
with the sysfs file - a lot of iwlwifi documentation and text (like
bug reports) rely on iwlagn and iwl3945 having this module parameter,
so changing this to a module parameter of iwlcore will have significant
impact and we do not do this for that reason.
One consequence of this patch is that if a user is running a system
with both 3945 and later hardware then the setting of the one module
parameter will affect the value of the other. The likelihood of this
seems low - and even if this setup is present it does not seem like an
issue for both modules to run with the same debug level.

The hardware doesn't generate interrupts in some cases and so work
around this by monitoring the TX status periodically and reset the
chip if required.
This behavior of the hardware not generating the TX interrupts can
be noticed through ath9k debugfs interrupt statistics when heavy
traffic is being sent from STA to AP. One can easily see this behavior
when the STA is transmitting at a higher rates. The interrupt statistics
in the debugfs interface clearly shows that only RX interrupts alone
being generated and TX being stuck.
TX should be monitored through a timer and reset the chip only when
frames are queued to the hardware but TX interrupts are not generated
for the same even after one second. Also, we shouldn't remove holding
descriptor from AC queue if it happens to be the only descriptor and
schedule TX aggregation regarless of queue depth as it improves
scheduling of AMPDUs from software to hardware queue.

Running iperf along with p2p traffic on both TX and RX side then
stop one side, then stop the other side, then start it up again,
eventually the STA gets into a mode that it can not pass data at
all.
A hardware workaround for invalid RSSI can make FIFO write pointer
to jump over read pointer, causing RX data corruption and repeated
DMA. Both TX and RX works fine when the workaround is disabled.
To replace the original hardware work around, software looks for
frames with post delimiter CRC error and mark the RSSI invalid so
that the upperlayer will not use the RSSI associated with this
frame. So disable the hardware workaround by updating the appropriate
registers.

RSSI reported by the RX descriptor requires little manipulation.
Manipulate and report the correct RSSI to the stack. This will
fix the improper signal levels reported by iwconfig iw dev wlanX
station dump. Also the Link Quality reported seems to be varying
(falls to zero also sometimes) when iperf is run from STA to AP.
Also use the default noise floor for now as the one reported
during the caliberation seems to be wrong.

This is not a valid regulatory domain as such these users were

may have been possible the manufacturer intended to use 0x0

For AP mode we must tune ANI specially for 2 GHz and
for 5 GHz. We mask in only the flags we want to toggle
on ath9k_hw_ani_control() through the ah->ani_function
bitmask, this will take care of ignoring changes during
ANI reset which we were disabling before.

This changes the power_level file to adhere to the "one value

requested as it will be the number just written to this file. It

In addition it fixes a problem where powertop's parsing expects

The issue was, that the locking code in mkiss was assuming it was only
ever being called in process or bh context. Fixed by converting the
involved locking code to use irq-safe locks.
Review of other networking line disciplines shows that 6pack, both sync

Using the enable_beacon flag allows some simplifications and fixes
some corner cases in beacon handling. This change adds a state
variable for beaconing in ath5k_beacon_config and handles both
enabling and disabling, thus eliminating the need for
ath5k_beacon_disable. We also now configure the beacon when any
of the beacon parameters change, so ath5k_beacon_reconfig is no
longer needed (its mmiowb gets moved to ath5k_beacon_config).
Finally, by locking around the whole config function, we don't
need to worry about clearing the interrupt mask register before
installing the new mask.
The upshot is this correctly disables beaconing when the interfaces
are taken down, it fixes a potential restarting of beaconing
when ath5k_reset() is called, and ensures that updates to the
beacon interval take effect immediately.

We were not differentiating quality between legacy and HT
configurations. We change this to consider the differences.
New theory for reporting quality:
At a hardware RSSI of 45 you will be able to use MCS 7 reliably.
At a hardware RSSI of 45 you will be able to use MCS 15 reliably.
At a hardware RSSI of 35 you should be able use 54 Mbps reliably.
MCS 7 is the highets MCS index usable by a 1-stream device.
MCS 15 is the highest MCS index usable by a 2-stream device.
All ath9k devices are either 1-stream or 2-stream.
How many bars you see is derived from the qual reporting.
A more elaborate scheme can be used here but it requires tables
of SNR/throughput for each possible mode used. For the MCS table
you can refer to the wireless wiki:

This should fix this bug report:
