Johannes Berg 511b082d29 iwlagn: keep BT settings across restart
The BT SCO needs to be re-applied to the device,
while the traffic load just needs to be correct

Johannes Berg 59079949fa iwlagn: disable gen2b BT coexistence in IBSS
IBSS doesn't allow for coexistence, so it
should be disabled.

Additionally, disable reacting to the BT
profile notification when in IBSS mode,
it likely won't be sent by the device to
start with though.

Also, in IBSS mode, BT coexistence isn't as fully-featured
and we must use a single antenna only. So instead of
peppering the code with new checks, simply pretend
we are in high BT traffic load, which has the needed
effect of disabling antenna B use.

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.

mac80211, or from device when the operation is needed. Here
adding the support for device issue "flush" request.

When receive tx complete with status is TX_STATUS_FAIL_RFKILL_FLUSH,
issue REPLY_TXFIFO_FLUSH command to uCode to flush out all the tx frames
in queues.

In this condition, since mac80211 has no knowledge of "flush" operation,
driver need to stop all the tx queues and wait for the operation
completed before wake up the queues for frames transmission.

Daniel Halperin 278c2f6faa iwlwifi: update LQ for bcast station on channel change
The rate table in the bcast LQ is computed only when the station is
allocated, and chooses the lowest rate for the band. Because of when this
occurs, this is the 2.4 GHz band and uses the 0x420a (CCK, 1 Mbps) rate. In 5 GHz
beaconing mode, this rate will prevent beacons from being sent and any other
packets from being received.

We can fix this by re-initializing the bcast station's LQ command when the
channel is changed.

Johannes Berg 2c810ccdba iwlwifi: rework broadcast station management
Currently, the broadcast station is managed along
with the interface type, rather than always being
present. That leads to a bug with injection -- it
is currently not possible to inject frames when
the only virtual interface is a monitor, because
in that the required broadcast station is missing.

Additionally, allocating and deallocating the
broadcast station's LQ all the time is wasteful,
and the code to support this is fairly complex.

So this changes completely the way we manage the
broadcast station. Rather than manage it along
with any interface, we now allocate it when we
bring the device up, and remove it again when we
bring the device down. When we bring the device
up, we don't immediately program the broadcast
station into it, instead we just mark it active
and rely on the next restore cycle to upload it
to the device. This works because an unassociated
RXON is always required at least once to set up
device parameters, which implies a reprogramming
of stations into the device.

As we now manage all stations properly, there no
longer is a need for forcing a clearing of them
via iwl_clear_ucode_stations(), which can become
a lot simpler.

Wey-Yi Guy fa8f130c50 iwlwifi: code cleanup for connectivity recovery
Split the connectivity check and recovery routine into separated
functions based on the types
   1. iwl_good_ack_health() - check for ack count
   2. iwl_good_plcp_health() - check for plcp error

Based on the type of errors being detected, different recovery methods
will be used to bring the system back to normal operational state.

Because different NIC has different HW and uCode, the behavior is also
different; these functions thus now form part of the ops infrastructure,
so we can have more control on how to monitor and recover from error condition
case per device.

Move the plcp error checking into stand alone function and pointed by ops
to accommodate devices not needing this recovery.
