3bf30b56c4 ath9k_htc: Avoid setting QoS control for non-QoS frames
Setting tid information in the TX header is required only for QoS
frames. Not handling this case causes severe data loss with some APs.

488f6ba75b ath9k_hw: add support for reading EEPROM data from the internal OTP ROM
Some of the new AR9003 cards do not come with an external EEPROM chip
anymore. Calibration data on these cards is stored in the OTP ROM on
the chip.
This patch adds support for reading this data, and also adds support
for different EEPROM chip sizes (512 bytes instead of 1K).

2d42efc44e ath9k: store frame information used by aggregation inside the skb tx info
Since the pointers after the rates in the tx info cannot be used anymore
after frames have been queued, this area can be used to store information
that was previously stored in the ath_buf. With these changes, we can delay
the ath_buf assignment in the aggregation code until aggregates are formed.

That will not only make it possible to simplify DMA descriptor setup to
do less rewriting of uncached memory, but will also make it easier to
move aggregation out of the core of the ath9k tx path.

04caf86375 ath9k: more tx setup cleanups
- remove the BUF_HT flag, and instead check for IEEE80211_TX_CTL_AMPDU
  before calling ath_tx_send_ampdu.
- remove a few unused variables
- calculate frame length before adding the frame padding
- merge the misnamed ath_tx_start_dma function into ath_tx_start
- remove an unused argument for assign_aggr_tid_seqno

066dae93bd ath9k: rework tx queue selection and fix queue stopping/waking
The current ath9k tx queue handling code showed a few issues that could
lead to locking issues, tx stalls due to stopped queues, and maybe even
DMA issues.

The main source of these issues is that in some places the queue is
selected via skb queue mapping in places where this mapping may no
longer be valid. One such place is when data frames are transmitted via
the CAB queue (for powersave buffered frames). This is made even worse
by a lookup WMM AC values from the assigned tx queue (which is
undefined for the CAB queue).

This messed up the pending frame counting, which in turn caused issues
with queues getting stopped, but not woken again.

To fix these issues, this patch removes an unnecessary abstraction
separating a driver internal queue number from the skb queue number
(not to be confused with the hardware queue number).

It seems that this abstraction may have been necessary because of tx
queue preinitialization from the initvals. This patch avoids breakage
here by pushing the software <-> hardware queue mapping to the function
that assigns the tx queues and redefining the WMM AC definitions to
match the numbers used by mac80211 (also affects ath9k_htc).

To ensure consistency wrt. pending frame count tracking, these counters
are moved to the ath_txq struct, updated with the txq lock held, but
only where the tx queue selected by the skb queue map actually matches
the tx queue used by the driver for the frame.

This patch fixes a possible lengthy stall if the device
is operating as an experimental 11n AP and an STA
[during heavy txrx action] suddenly signalized to go
off-channel (old NetworkManager), or (sleep - which is
unlikely, because then it wouldn't be *active* at all!?).

Because the driver has to manage the BA Window, the
sudden PSM transition can leave active uplink BA
sessions to the STA in a bad state and a proper
cleanup is needed.

9d94674ab7 ath9k: simplify hw reset locking
The new PCU lock is better placed so we can just contend
against that when trying to reset hardware.

This is part of a series of patches which fix stopping
TX DMA completley when requested on the driver.
For more details about this issue refer to this thread:

78a7685e1e ath9k: add a debug warning when we cannot stop RX
We have seen several DMA races when we race against
stopping and starting the PCU. I suspect that when
we cannot stop the PCU we may hit some of these same
races so warn against them for now but only when
debugging (CONFIG_ATH_DEBUG) is enabled.

If you run into this warning and are a developer,
please fix the cause of the warning. The potential
here, although I cannot prove yet, is that the DMA
engine can be confused and start writing to a buffer
that was already DMA'd before and at least the kernel
assumes is not being accessed by hardware anymore.

ada9f1cacb ath9k_hw: optimize all descriptor access functions
Because all of the descriptor data structures are marked as __packed, GCC
assumes the worst case wrt. alignment and generates unaligned load/store
instructions on MIPS for access to all fields.
Since descriptors always have to be 4-byte-aligned, we can just mark the
data structures with __aligned(4), which allows GCC to generate much more
efficient code.
Verified through disassembly and OProfile comparisons.

4df3071ebd ath9k_hw: optimize interrupt mask changes
OProfile showed that ath9k was spending way too much time in
ath9k_hw_set_interrupts. Since most of the interrupt mask changes only
need to globally enable/disable interrupts, it makes sense to split
this part into separate functions, replacing all calls to
ath9k_hw_set_interrupts(ah, 0) with ath9k_hw_disable_interrupts(ah).

ath9k_hw_set_interrupts(ah, ah->imask) only gets changed to
ath9k_hw_enable_interrupts(ah), whenever ah->imask was not changed
since the point where interrupts were disabled.

f119da3015 ath9k_hw: Fix AR9280 surprise removal during frequent idle on/off
Bit 22 of AR_WA should be set to fix the situation where chip reset
is asynchronous to clock of analog shift registers, such that when
reset is released, it could mess up the values of analog shift registers
and cause some hw issue on AR9280.

This bit is write only, but the driver does a read-modify-write
on AR_WA without setting bit 22 in ar9002_hw_configpcipowersave()
during radio disable. This causes surprise removal of hw. It can
never recover from this state and the hw will become usable only
after a power on/off cycle, and sometimes only during a cold reboot.

This issue can be triggered by doing frequent roaming with the
simple/test-roam script available from the wifi-test project [1]
when roaming between APs quickly. When roaming there is a is a high
possibility that the device being put into idle (radio disable) state
by mac80211 during AUTH->ASSOC. A device hardware reset would fail
and the kernel would output:

This is currently only reproducible with some HB92 (Half Mini-PCIE)
cards but the fix applies to all AR9280 cards. This patch fixes this
issue by setting bit 22 during radio disable.

This patch has fixes for all kernels that has ath9k.

If ath5k_hw_attach fails it will free sc->ah (local variable ah) before
returning. However, when it reports failure the caller (ath5k_pci_probe)
will also free sc->ah. Let the caller handle the deallocation, it does
so on further errors as well.

e609e2ea2c ath9k: fix tx aggregation flush on AR9003
Completing aggregate frames can lead to new buffers being pushed into
the tid queues due to software retransmission.
When the tx queues are being drained, all pending aggregates must be
completed before the tid queues get drained, otherwise buffers might be
leaked.

7583c550c3 ath9k: add locking for starting the PCU on RX
There was some locking for starting some parts of
RX but not for starting the PCU. Include this otherwise
we can content against stopping the PCU.

This can potentially lead to races against different
buffers on the PCU which can lead to to the DMA RX
engine writing to buffers which are already freed.

1e45028528 ath9k: add locking for stopping RX
ath9k locks for starting RX but not for stopping RX. We could
potentially run into a situation where tried to stop RX
but immediately started RX. This allows for races on the
the RX engine deciding what buffer we last left off on
and could potentially cause ath9k to DMA into already
free'd memory or in the worst case at a later time to
already given memory to other drivers.

Fix this by locking stopping RX.

fac6b6a065 ath9k: resume aggregation immediately after a hardware reset
Since aggregation is usually triggered by tx completion, a hardware
reset (because of beacon stuck, tx hang or baseband hang) can
significantly delay the transmission of the next AMPDU (until the next
tx completion event).
Fix this by rescheduling aggregation after such a reset.

0299a50abb ath9k: fix handling of rate control probe frames
The ath9k aggregation code was already checking the rate control probe flag
to prevent starting an aggregate frame with a sampling rate. What was missing
was closing an aggregate before adding a probing frame to it.
Without that, rate control cannot have precise control over probing, which
delays using faster rates when the channel conditions improve.

0dfa6dbb73 ath9k_hw: Fix TX carrier leakage for IEEE compliance on AR9003 2.2
This updates the initvals for the AR9003 2.2 chipsets. The initvals
are the initial register values we use for our registers upon hardware
reset. This synchs up the initvals to match what our latest recommendation
from our systems engineering team.

The description of changes in this update:

        Improves ability to support very strong Rx conditions.
        Enhances DFS support for AP-mode.
        Improves performance of Tx carrier leak calibration.
        Adds support for Japan channel 14 Tx filtering requirements.
        Improves Tx power accuracy.

Impact:

        Update required to address degraded throughput at very short range.
        Update required for AP-mode DFS certification.
        Update required to comply to IEEE Tx carrier leak specification.
        May not meet expected +/- 2 dB Tx power accuracy without update.

The most important fix here would be the TX carrier leakage required
to comply with IEEE 802.11 specifications. The group of changes have
been tested all together in one release.

6038f373a3 llseek: automatically add .llseek fop
All file_operations should get a .llseek operation so we can make
nonseekable_open the default for future file operations without a
.llseek pointer.

The three cases that we can automatically detect are no_llseek, seq_lseek
and default_llseek. For cases where we can we can automatically prove that
the file offset is always ignored, we use noop_llseek, which maintains
the current behavior of not returning an error from a seek.

New drivers should normally not use noop_llseek but instead use no_llseek
and call nonseekable_open at open time.  Existing drivers can be converted
to do the same when the maintainer knows for certain that no user code
relies on calling seek on the device file.

The generated code is often incorrectly indented and right now contains
comments that clarify for each added line why a specific variant was
chosen. In the version that gets submitted upstream, the comments will
be gone and I will manually fix the indentation, because there does not
seem to be a way to do that using coccinelle.

Some amount of new code is currently sitting in linux-next that should get
the same modifications, which I will do at the end of the merge window.

Many thanks to Julia Lawall for helping me learn to write a semantic
patch that does all this.

ebd022873a ath9k: A-MPDU rate control info fix
This patch fixes the following problems with the rate control feedback
generated by ath9k for A-MPDU frames:

1. Rate control feedback is carried on the first frame of an aggregate
that is either ACKed, or has execeeded the software retry count and is
considered failed. However, ath9k would incorrectly assume the aggregate
had the length 1 if one of these conditions did not apply to the first
frame of the aggregate, but instead a later frame. This fix therefor
copies the bf_nframes field of the buffer in the same manner as the rates
field of the tx status.

2. Sometimes the ampdu_len and ampdu_ack_len fields of the tx status was
left uninitialized eventhough the IEEE80211_TX_STAT_AMPDU flag was set.
This is now avoid by setting flag and fields in the same place.

3. Even if a frame has been selected for aggregation by mac80211 and
marked with the IEEE80211_TX_CTL_AMPDU flag it can sometimes happen that
ath9k transmits the frame without aggregation. In these cases the
ampdu_ack_len field could be incorrectly computed because the nbad
parameter to ath_tx_rc_status was incorrect.

15a6321d1c ath9k_hw: Fix hw reset failure with HTC driver
The following commit removed DISABLE_REGWRITE_BUFFER ops. The unnecessary
REGWRITE_BUFFER_FLUSH was not removed properly which is causing failure on
hw reset.

fbab7390f9 ath9k: remove unnecessary power save flags.
drv_config callback is called only after the ack for the nullframe
is received and so driver need not do anything special for this.

So remove NULLFUNC_COMPLETED, PS_ENABLED flags and bf_isnullfunc
flags from ath9k as mac80211 already handles them properly.

95792178a5 ath9k_hw: merge ath9k_hw_ani_monitor_old and ath9k_hw_ani_monitor_new
After the last rounds of cleanup, these functions are now functionally
equivalent and can thus be merged.
Also get rid of some excessive (and redundant) debug messages.

8eb4980c33 ath9k_hw: remove function pointer abstraction for internal ANI ops
The code gets more concise and readable when making the new ANI functions
fall back to the old ones if ANI v2 is disabled. This also makes further code
cleanup easier.

Split out the PHY error counter update from ath9k_hw_ani_monitor_*, reuse
it in ath9k_hw_proc_mib_event (merged from ath9k_hw_proc_mib_event_old
and ath9k_hw_proc_mib_event_new).

093115b7fd ath9k_hw: clean up ANI state handling
ANI state is kept per channel, so instead of keeping an array of ANI states
with an arbitrary size of 255, move the ANI state into the channel struct.

Move some config settings that are not per-channel out of
the per-channel struct to save some memory.

With those changes, ath9k_ani_restart_old and ath9k_ani_restart_new can
be merged into a single function.

435c1610f4 ath9k_hw: clean up register write buffering
Throughout the code, DISABLE_REGWRITE_BUFFER is always called right after
REGWRITE_BUFFER_FLUSH. Since that's unlikely to change any time soon, that
makes keeping those ops separate rather pointless, as it only increases
code size and line number counts.

9dbebc7fd0 ath9k_hw: merge codepaths that access the cycle counter registers
The cycle counters are used by ANI to determine the amount of time that the
radio spent not receiving or transmitting. They're also used for debugging
purposes if the baseband watchdog on AR9003 detects a lockup.
In the future, we want to use these counters to determine the medium utilization
and export this information via survey. For that, we need to make sure that
the counter is only accessed from one place, which also ensures that
wraparounds won't occur at inconvenient points in time.

6497827f53 ath9k_hw: clean up calibration flags
The calibration actual calibration flags are only used by the per chip family
source files, so it makes more sense to define them in those files instead
of globally. That way the code has to test for less flags.

Also instead of using a separate callback for testing whether a particular
calibration type is supported, simply adjust ah->supp_cals in the calibration
init which is called right after the hardware reset, before any of the
calibrations are run.
