5f13bfac07 ath5k: read eeprom IQ calibration values correctly for G mode
we read the IQ correction values (i_cal and q_cal) for G mode from a wrong
location (the same shifts as for A mode is applied which is incorrect). use
correct locations, matching the docs and HAL sources.

also we should write IQ correction only when we have that information in the
EEPROM, starting from version 4. also write it in the same way as we do in the
periodic recalibration (enable last), just to be sure.

86415d43ef ath5k: fix I/Q calibration (for real)
I/Q calibration was completely broken, resulting in a high number of CRC errors
on received packets. before i could see around 10% to 20% CRC errors, with this
patch they are between 0% and 3%.

1.) the removal of the mask in commit "ath5k: Fix I/Q calibration
(f1cf2dbd0f)" resulted in no mask beeing used
when writing the I/Q values into the register. additional errors in the
calculation of the values (see 2.) resulted too high numbers, exceeding the
masks, so wrong values like 0xfffffffe were written. to be safe we should
always use the bitmask when writing parts of a register.

2.) using a (s32) cast for q_coff is a wrong conversion to signed, since we
convert to a signed value later by substracting 128. this resulted in too low
numbers for Q many times, which were limited to -16 by the boundary check later
on.

3.) checked everything against the HAL sources and took over comments and minor
optimizations from there.

4.) we can't use ENABLE_BITS when we want to write a number (the number can
contain zeros). also always write the correction values first and set ENABLE
bit last, like the HAL does.

8bd8beab49 ath5k: use fixed antenna for tx descriptors
when using a fixed antenna we should use the antenna number in all tx
descriptors, otherwise the hardware will sometimes send the frame out on the
other antenna. it seems like the hardware does not always respect the default
antenna and diversity settings (esp.  AR5K_STA_ID1_DEFAULT_ANTENNA).

also i would like to note that antenna diversity does not always work correctly
on 5414 (at least) when only one antenna is connected: for example all frames
might be received on antenna A but still the HW tries to send on antenna B some
times, causing packet loss.

this is both verified with the antenna statistics output of the previous patch
and a spectrum analyzer.

8e59340e4f libipw: split ieee->networks into small pieces
The ieee->networks consists of 128 struct libipw_network entries. If
we allocate this chunk of memory altogether, it ends up with an
order 4 page allocation. High order page allocation is likely to fail
on system high load. This patch splits the big chunk memory allocation
into small pieces, each is 344 bytes, allocates them with 128 times.

1382c71c76 Revert "iwlwifi: Send broadcast probe request only when asked to"
This reverts commit 21b2d8bd2f.

As explained by Johannes:
When we
build a probe request frame in the buffer with the SSID, we could
arrive over the limit of 200 bytes. When we build it in the buffer
without the SSID (wildcard) we don't arrive over 200 bytes, but the
ucode still allows direct probe in addition because it has an internal
buffer that is larger when it inserts the SSID...

1d79e53c56 iwl3945: fix memory corruption
Recent patch "iwlwifi: move 3945 clip groups to 3945 data" exposed a memory
corruption problem. When initializing the clip groups the code was
mistakenly using the iwlagn rate count, not the 3945 rate count. This
resulted in more memory being written than was allocated.

"iwlwifi: move 3945 clip groups to 3945 data" moved the location where the
clip groups are stored and the impact is now severe in that the number of
configured TX queues is modified. Previously the
"temperature" field was overwritten, which did not seem to affect the
operation.

Fix this one instance where wrong rate count was used. I also noticed one
more location where the iwlagn rate count was used to index an iwl3945
array, fix this. I also modified one location that modified the iwlagn rate
count to obtain the iwl3945 rate count ... just use the iwl3945 rate count
directly.

This fixes http://bugzilla.intellinuxwireless.org/show_bug.cgi?id=2165 and
http://bugzilla.intellinuxwireless.org/show_bug.cgi?id=2168

4fa0043731 mac80211: Fix HT rate control configuration
Handling HT configuration changes involved setting the channel
with the new HT parameters and then issuing a rate_update()
notification to the driver.

This behavior changed after the off-channel changes. Now, the channel
is not updated with the new HT params in enable_ht() - instead, it
is now done when the scan work terminates. This results in the driver
depending on stale information, defaulting to non-HT mode always.

Fix this by passing the new channel type to the driver.

b08dfd0435 iwlwifi: load firmware asynchronously before mac80211 registration
At the wireless summit in Portland we discussed a way of
loading firmware asynchronously from ->probe() before
registration to mac80211, in order to register with the
wireless subsystems with complete information in cases
where firmware is required to know parameters.

This is not yet the case in iwlwifi, but for some new
features we're working on it will be the case since
those will only be supported by new firmware images.

Hence, to start with, convert iwlwifi to load firmware
asynchronously from probe, unbinding the device when
firmware loading fails, and only registering with the
wireless subsystems after firmware has been loaded
successfully.

Future patches will hook into this to register the
new firmware capabilities, depending on the firmware
API version.

9e3bd91908 b43: fall back gracefully to PIO mode after fatal DMA errors
This makes the b43 driver just automatically fall back to PIO mode when
DMA doesn't work.

The driver already told the user to do it, so rather than have the user
reload the module with a new flag, just make the driver do it
automatically. We keep the message as an indication that something is
wrong, but now just automatically fall back to the hopefully working PIO
case.

7bfbae10dc ath9k: disable RIFS search for AR91xx based chips
While ath9k does not support RIFS yet, the ability to receive RIFS
frames is currently enabled for most chipsets in the initvals.
This is causing baseband related issues on AR9160 and AR9130 based
chipsets, which can lock up under certain conditions.

This patch fixes these issues by overriding the initvals, effectively
disabling RIFS for all affected chipsets.

Increase the buffer size for commands with "huge"
bit set. This has been recently observed for 6050 cards where
for even with huge bit set few commands were not properly allocated
memory with the command overwriting the buffer allocated for it..
Also add a check to see if command size exceeds the
maximum allowable size.

ab9bdc34d6 Revert "iwlwifi: Monitor and recover the aggregation TX flow failure"
This reverts commit 1db5950f1d.

The goal of "iwlwifi: Monitor and recover the aggregation TX flow failure"
is to first detect when data transmission stalls and then to recover from
this situation with a reset of the radio or the firmware, depending on how
bad the transmission failures are.

Unfortunately we have found that this change causes excessive resets with
its current detection algorithm. It also performs its recovery action when
none is really needed, like when we are not associated.

Revert this change until the issues have been addressed.

counting the number of tfds can be free, the tfds_in_queue only

d8728ee919 ath9k: fix beacon timer restart after a card reset
In AP mode, ath_beacon_config_ap only restarts the timer if a TSF
restart is requested. Apparently this was added, because this function
unconditionally sets the flag for TSF reset.

The problem with this is, that ath9k_hw_reset() clobbers the timer
registers (specified in the initvals), thus effectively disabling the
SWBA interrupt whenever a card reset without TSF reset is issued
(happens in a few places in the code).

This patch fixes ath_beacon_config_ap to only issue the TSF reset flag
when necessary, but reinitialize the timer unconditionally. Tests show,
that this is enough to keep the SWBA interrupt going after a call to
ath_reset()

5c0ba62fd4 ath9k: fix rate control fallback rate selection
When selecting the tx fallback rate, rc.c used a separate variable
'nrix' for storing the next rate index, however it did not use that as
reference for further rate index lowering. Because of that, it ended up
reusing the same rate for multiple multi-rate retry stages, thus
decreasing delivery probability under changing link conditions.

This patch removes the separate (unnecessary) variable and fixes
fallback the way it was intended to work.
This should result in increased throughput and better link stability.
