Replenishment of receive buffers is done in the tasklet handling
received frames as well as in a workqueue. When we are in the tasklet
we cannot sleep and thus attempt atomic skb allocations. It is generally
not a big problem if this fails since iwl_rx_allocate is always followed
by a call to iwl_rx_queue_restock which will queue the work to replenish
the buffers at a time when sleeping is allowed.
We thus add the __GFP_NOWARN to the skb allocation in iwl_rx_allocate to
reduce the noise if such an allocation fails while we still have enough
buffers. We do maintain the warning and the error message when we are low
on buffers to communicate to the user that there is a potential problem with
memory availability on system

allocation failures" in

commit 10c994ca70e8e94bbc85a5bf13de5911ee8de4d2 "iwlwifi: fix remove key
error" fixed an error reported by mac80211 during interface down. The fix
involved changing an async command to synchronous. Unfortunately this was
inside a spinlock section in which we cannot sleep.
Modify the sending of the command back to async. This causes the mac80211
error "mac80211-phy0: failed to remove key (0, ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff) from
hardware (-16)." to return. This error is not serious since this occurs
during interface down and the keys will be cleared anyway when ucode is
unloaded. Having this error message is thus less serious than a potential
deadlock introduced when sleeping while holding a spinlock. We will have to
find another fix for that error.
This is a revert of the abovementioned commit.

There's a bug in 4965 powersave that appears to
be related to the way it keeps track of its data
during sleep, but we haven't found it yet. Due to
that, using powersave may spontaneously cause the
device to SYSASSERT when transitioning from sleep
to wake. Therefore, disable powersave for 4965,
until (if ever, unfortunately) we can identify
and fix the problem.

RX handling maintains a few lists that keep track of the RX buffers.
Buffers move from one list to the other as they are used, replenished, and
again made available for usage. In one such instance, when a buffer is used
it enters the "rx_used" list. When buffers are replenished an skb is
attached to the buffer and it is moved to the "rx_free" list. The problem
here is that the buffer is first removed from the "rx_used" list _before_ the
skb is allocated. Thus, if the skb allocation fails this buffer remains
removed from the "rx_used" list and is thus lost for future usage.
Fix this by first allocating the skb before trying to attach it to a list.
We add an additional check to not do this unnecessarily.

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
PLCP rate, for legacy packets).

Refactor and correct rate selection for outgoing transmitted

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

Over time, a whole bunch of drivers have come up
with their own scheme to delay the configure_filter
operation to a workqueue. To be able to simplify
things, allow configure_filter to sleep, and add
a new prepare_multicast callback that drivers that
need the multicast address list implement. This new
callback must be atomic, but most drivers either
don't care or just calculate a hash which can be
done atomically and then uploaded to the hardware
non-atomically.
A cursory look suggests that at76c50x-usb, ar9170,
mwl8k (which is actually very broken now), rt2x00,

The field called 'len' in struct iwl_rx_packet is in fact not just a length
field but also includes some flags from the flow handler. In several places
throughout the driver, this causes incorrect values to be interpreted as
lengths when the field is improperly masked.
In most situations the improper use is for debugging output, and simply results
in an erroneous message, such as:
[551933.070224] ieee80211 phy0: I iwl_rx_statistics Statistics notification received (480 vs -1367342620).
which should read '(480 vs 484)'.
In at least one case this could case bad things to happen:
void iwl_rx_pm_debug_statistics_notif(struct iwl_priv *priv,
struct iwl_rx_mem_buffer *rxb)
{
struct iwl_rx_packet *pkt = (struct iwl_rx_packet *)rxb->skb->data;
IWL_DEBUG_RADIO(priv, "Dumping %d bytes of unhandled "
"notification for %s:\n",
le32_to_cpu(pkt->len), get_cmd_string(pkt->hdr.cmd));
iwl_print_hex_dump(priv, IWL_DL_RADIO, pkt->u.raw, le32_to_cpu(pkt->len)
);
}
EXPORT_SYMBOL(iwl_rx_pm_debug_statistics_notif);
Given the rampant misuse of this field without proper masking throughout the
driver (every use but one), this patch renames the field from 'len' to
'len_n_flags' to reduce confusion. It also adds the proper masking when
this field is used as a length value.

Depending on required latency requested by pm_qos (via mac80211)
we can automatically adjust the sleep state. Also, mac80211 has
a user-visible dynamic sleep feature where we are supposed to
stay awake after sending/receiving frames to better receive
response frames to our packets, this can be integrated into the
sleep command.
Currently, and this patch doesn't change that yet, we default
to using sleep level 1 if PS is enabled. With a module parameter
to iwlcore, automatic adjustment to changing network latency
requirements can be enabled -- this isn't yet the default due
to requiring more testing.
The goal is to enable automatic adjustment and then go into the
deepest possible sleep state possible depending on the networking
latency requirements.
This patch does, however, enable IEEE80211_HW_SUPPORTS_DYNAMIC_PS
to avoid the double-timer (one in software and one in the device)
when transmitting -- the exact timeout may be ignored but that is
not of big concern.
Note also that we keep the hard-coded power indices around for
thermal throttling -- the specification of that calls for using
the specified power levels. Those can also be selected in debugfs
to allow easier testing of such parameters.

reliable mechanism for ucode loading. Unfortunately we hit a problem with
it frequently enough to make a 4965 unusable. The problem can be seen in
debug log below. What this code attempts is to set runtime ucode up to
load, start a timer to wait for the alive response from runtime ucode, and
if it times out it tries again. As can be seen below we receive the alive
response and wake the waiting task _before_ the tasks starts waiting. The
task thus times out as the alive response is not received while it is
waiting for it and it restarts the device. This starts the cycle all over
again.

should be unique per device.
We now re-introduce the per device debugging while maintaining the

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.

By echo "1" to "disable_ht40" file, iwlwifi driver will disable the

Because the information exchange happen during association time,

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

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.

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.

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.

Patch fixes the bug at
http://www.intellinuxwireless.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=1903
when SW rfkill is invoked by 'iwconfig txpower off',
the existing connection disassociates and led off command is sent
to the device which returns error as rfkill is 'true'.
Patch fixes this by just avoiding sending the led off/on command when
disassociated. The main purpose of the led_disassociate callback
is to start or stop the blinking.
There are three states in led
1) Always on when radio is on
2) Always off when radio is off
3) blink when associated and if there is some traffic.
In this callback 'allow_blinking' needs to be set false
when associated, as LED will be always on.

This patch completely rewrites the rfkill core to address
the following deficiencies:
* all rfkill drivers need to implement polling where necessary
rather than having one central implementation
* updating the rfkill state cannot be done from arbitrary
contexts, forcing drivers to use schedule_work and requiring
lots of code
* rfkill drivers need to keep track of soft/hard blocked
internally -- the core should do this
* the rfkill API has many unexpected quirks, for example being
asymmetric wrt. alloc/free and register/unregister
* rfkill can call back into a driver from within a function the
driver called -- this is prone to deadlocks and generally
should be avoided
* rfkill-input pointlessly is a separate module
* drivers need to #ifdef rfkill functions (unless they want to
depend on or select RFKILL) -- rfkill should provide inlines
that do nothing if it isn't compiled in
* the rfkill structure is not opaque -- drivers need to initialise
it correctly (lots of sanity checking code required) -- instead
force drivers to pass the right variables to rfkill_alloc()
* the documentation is hard to read because it always assumes the
reader is completely clueless and contains way TOO MANY CAPS
* the rfkill code needlessly uses a lot of locks and atomic
operations in locked sections
* fix LED trigger to actually change the LED when the radio state
changes -- this wasn't done before

will prevent from forgetting to hold locks and nic access in the right way and make code

Calling cancel_delayed_work() from inside
spin_lock_irqsave, introduces a potential deadlock.
As explained by Johannes Berg <johannes@sipsolutions.net>
A - lock
T - timer
phase CPU 1 CPU 2
---------------------------------------------
some place that calls
cancel_timer_sync()
(which is the | code)
lock-irq(A)
| "lock-irq"(T)
| "unlock"(T)
| wait(T)
unlock(A)
timer softirq
"lock"(T)
run(T)
"unlock"(T)
irq handler
lock(A)
unlock(A)
Now all that again, interleaved, leading to deadlock:
lock-irq(A)
"lock"(T)
run(T)
IRQ during or maybe
before run(T) --> lock(A)
"lock-irq"(T)
wait(T)
We fix this by moving the call to cancel_delayed_work() into workqueue.
There are cases where the work may not actually be queued or running
at the time we are trying to cancel it, but cancel_delayed_work() is
able to deal with this.
Also cleanup iwl_set_mode related to this call. This function
(iwl_set_mode) is only called when bringing interface up and there will
thus not be any scanning done. No need to try to cancel scanning.
Fixes http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=13224, which was also
reported at http://marc.info/?l=linux-wireless&m=124081921903223&w=2 .

This removes all the dead code that tries to adjust the power
saving level based on the system AC state (inacceptable policy
in the kernel) or based on overtemp conditions (unused).
Also, pass _all_ policy wrt. enabling PS to mac80211, since
we do not use the power_disabled internally I now use that to
mirror the mac80211 CONF_PS setting. When mac80211 turns off
CONF_PS we follow suit. This means that the user power level
(which can currently only be set from sysfs) is not touched
for mac80211 powersave changes.
This means no "association status" checks are necessary since
mac80211 will not allow power save to be enabled when not
associated.

iwlwifi internally needs to keep track of whether PS
is enabled in the firmware or not. To do this, it keeps
a bit in the status flags, called STATUS_POWER_PMI.
The code to set this bit looks as follows:
static int iwl_set_power(struct iwl_priv *priv, void *cmd)
{
return iwl_send_cmd_pdu_async(priv, POWER_TABLE_CMD,
sizeof(struct iwl_powertable_cmd),
cmd, NULL);
}
int iwl_power_update_mode(...)
{
[...]
if (final_mode != IWL_POWER_MODE_CAM)
set_bit(STATUS_POWER_PMI, &priv->status);
iwl_update_power_cmd(priv, &cmd, final_mode);
cmd.keep_alive_beacons = 0;
if (final_mode == IWL_POWER_INDEX_5)
cmd.flags |= IWL_POWER_FAST_PD;
ret = iwl_set_power(priv, &cmd);
if (final_mode == IWL_POWER_MODE_CAM)
clear_bit(STATUS_POWER_PMI, &priv->status);
else
set_bit(STATUS_POWER_PMI, &priv->status);
if (priv->cfg->ops->lib->update_chain_flags && update_chains)
priv->cfg->ops->lib->update_chain_flags(priv);
[...]
}
Now, this bit really needs to track what the _firmware_
thinks, not what the driver thinks. Therefore, there is
a race condition here -- the driver sets the bit before
it knows that the async command sent to the card in the
iwl_set_power function has been processed. As a result,
the call to update_chain_flags() may think that the card
has been woken up (PMI bit cleared) while in reality it
hasn't processed the async POWER_TABLE_CMD yet.
This leads to bugs -- any commands the update_chain_flags
function sends can get stuck and subsequent commands also
fail.
The fix is almost trivial: since there's no reason to send
an async command here (in fact, there almost never should
be since many mac80211 callbacks can sleep) just make the
function wait for the card to process the command and then
return and clear the PMI bit.

Some issues in PS prevent us from supporting it reliably.
When 4965 goes to sleep it stores some data in host DRAM, reads it back
when device wakes up. In 4965 there is a problem that the data is not
correct when ucode starts using it upon wakeup.
For all iwlagn devices there is a problem where command is sent when PS is

We currently have two beacon interval configuration knobs:
hw.conf.beacon_int and vif.bss_info.beacon_int. This is
rather confusing, even though the former is used when we
beacon ourselves and the latter when we are associated to
an AP.
This just deprecates the hw.conf.beacon_int setting in favour
of always using vif.bss_info.beacon_int. Since it touches all
the beaconing IBSS code anyway, we can also add support for
the cfg80211 IBSS beacon interval configuration easily.
NOTE: The hw.conf.beacon_int setting is retained for now due
to drivers still using it -- I couldn't untangle all
drivers, some are updated in this patch.

We need to be symmetrical in what is done when key is set and cleared.
This is important wrt the key flags as they are used during key
clearing and if they are not set when the key is set the key cannot be
cleared completely.
This addresses the many occurences of the WARN found in
iwl_set_tkip_dynamic_key_info() and tracked in
http://www.kerneloops.org/searchweek.php?search=iwl_set_dynamic_key
If calling iwl_set_tkip_dynamic_key_info()/iwl_remove_dynamic_key()
pair a few times in a row will cause that we run out of key space.
This is because the index stored in the key flags is used by
iwl_remove_dynamic_key() to decide if it should remove the key.
Unfortunately the key flags, and hence the key index is currently only
set at the time the key is written to the device (in
iwl_update_tkip_key()) and _not_ in iwl_set_tkip_dynamic_key_info().
Fix this by setting flags in iwl_set_tkip_dynamic_key_info().

This patch introduces a new attribute for a wiphy that tells

request frame can be at most. It also updates the at76 to
advertise that it cannot support that, and, for now until I
can fix that, iwlwifi too.

The STATUS_ALIVE value cannot be used because it is cleared when
interface is brought down and will not be set if rfkill is enabled when
interface is started again. The interface can thus not be brought up if
rfkill was enabled before stopping the interface and disabled after
starting the interface.
Change the test to use priv->is_open instead, this will be set when
interface is started whether rfkill is enabled or not.

Almost all drivers do not support user_claim, so remove it
completely and always report -EOPNOTSUPP to userspace. Since
userspace cannot really drive rfkill _anyway_ (due to the
odd restrictions imposed by the documentation) having this
code is just pointless.

A few issues wrt DMA were uncovered when using the driver with swiotlb.
- driver should not use memory after it has been mapped
- iwl3945's RX queue management cannot use all of iwlagn because
the size of the RX buffer is different. Revert back to using
iwl3945 specific routines that map/unmap memory.
- no need to "dma_syn_single_range_for_cpu" followed by pci_unmap_single,
we can just call pci_unmap_single initially
- only map the memory area that will be used by device. this is especially
relevant to the mapping of iwl_cmd. we should not map the entire
structure because the meta data at the beginning of structure contains
the address to be used later for unmapping. If the address to be used for
unmapping is stored in mapped data it creates a problem.
- ensure that _if_ memory needs to be modified after it is mapped that we
call _sync_single_for_cpu first, and then release it back to device with
_sync_single_for_device
- we mapped the wrong length of data for host commands, with mapped length
differing with length provided to device, fix that.

When debugging TX issues it is helpful to know the seq nr of the
frame being transmitted. The seq nr is printed as part of ucode's
log informing us which frame is being processed. Having this information
printed in driver log makes it easy to match activities between driver
and firmware.
Also make possible to print TX flags directly. These are already printed
as part of entire TX command, but having it printed directly in cpu format
makes it easier to look at.

This patch removes all the virtual A-MPDU-queue bookkeeping from
mac80211. Curiously, iwlwifi already does its own bookkeeping, so
it doesn't require much changes except where it needs to handle
starting and stopping the queues in mac80211.
To handle the queue stop/wake properly, we rewrite the software
queue number for aggregation frames and internally to iwlwifi keep
track of the queues that map into the same AC queue, and only talk
to mac80211 about the AC queue. The implementation requires calling
two new functions, iwl_stop_queue and iwl_wake_queue instead of the
mac80211 counterparts.
