* iwlwifi: dvm: fix zero LQ CMD sending avoidanceEmmanuel Grumbach2013-05-271-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In 63b77bf489881747c5118476918cc8c29378ee63 iwlwifi: dvm: don't send zeroed LQ cmd I tried to avoid to send zeroed LQ cmd, but I made a (very) stupid mistake in the memcmp. Since this patch has been ported to stable, the fix should go to stable too.

* iwlwifi: dvm: don't send zeroed LQ cmdEmmanuel Grumbach2013-04-181-1/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | When the stations are being restored because of unassoc RXON, the LQ cmd may not have been initialized because it is initialized only after association. Sending zeroed LQ_CMD makes the fw unhappy: it raises SYSASSERT_2078.

* iwlwifi: use coherent DMA memory for command headerJohannes Berg2013-02-281-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Recently in commit 8a964f44e01ad3bbc208c3e80d931ba91b9ea786 ("iwlwifi: always copy first 16 bytes of commands") we fixed the problem that the hardware writes back to the command and that could overwrite parts of the data that was still needed and would thus be corrupted. Investigating this problem more closely we found that this write-back isn't really ordered very well with respect to other DMA traffic. Therefore, it sometimes happened that the write-back occurred after unmapping the command again which is clearly an issue and could corrupt the next allocation that goes to that spot, or (better) cause IOMMU faults. To fix this, allocate coherent memory for the first 16 bytes of each command, containing the write-back part, and use it for all queues. All the dynamic DMA mappings only need to be TO_DEVICE then. This ensures that even when the write-back happens "too late" it can't hit memory that has been freed or a mapping that doesn't exist any more. Since now the actual command is no longer modified, we can also remove CMD_WANT_HCMD and get rid of the DMA sync that was necessary to update the scratch pointer.

| * mac80211: stop modifying HT SMPS capabilityJohannes Berg2013-02-151-10/+7Star
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Instead of modifying the HT SMPS capability field for stations, track the SMPS mode explicitly in a new field in the station struct and use it in the drivers that care about it. This simplifies the code using it. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>
| * mac80211: stop toggling IEEE80211_HT_CAP_SUP_WIDTH_20_40Johannes Berg2013-02-151-14/+5Star
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | For VHT, many more bandwidth changes are possible. As a first step, stop toggling the IEEE80211_HT_CAP_SUP_WIDTH_20_40 flag in the HT capabilities and instead introduce a bandwidth field indicating the currently usable bandwidth to transmit to the station. Of course, make all drivers use it. To achieve this, make ieee80211_ht_cap_ie_to_sta_ht_cap() get the station as an argument, rather than the new capabilities, so it can set up the new bandwidth field. If the station is a VHT station and VHT bandwidth is in use, also set the bandwidth accordingly. Doing this allows us to get rid of the supports_40mhz flag as the HT capabilities now reflect the true capability instead of the current setting. While at it, also fix ieee80211_ht_cap_ie_to_sta_ht_cap() to not ignore HT cap overrides when MCS TX isn't supported (not that it really happens...)

* | iwlwifi: use threaded interrupt handlerJohannes Berg2013-02-051-2/+2
|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | With new transports coming up, move to threaded interrupt handling now. This has the advantage that we can use the same locking scheme with all different transports we may need to implement. Note that the TX path obviously still runs in a tasklet, so some spin_lock() calls need to change to spin_lock_bh() calls to properly lock out the TX path. In my test on a Calpella platform this has no impact on throughput or latency. Also add lockdep annotations to avoid lockups due to catch sending synchronous commands or using locks that connect with them from the irq thread.

* iwlwifi: Change define and struct names in iwl-eeprom-parse.hEytan Lifshitz2012-12-061-6/+6
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | Since we will have several forms of NVM (EEPROM, OTP, etc.) and they will have different layouts, make the parsed data more generic. This allows functional code to be independent of a specific layout. Also change some variables and function names from having "eeprom" to "nvm" in their name.

* iwlwifi: fix async station command crashJohannes Berg2012-09-201-3/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Before Emmanuel's change to use a copy of the command ("iwlwifi: get the correct HCMD in the response handler") the iwl_add_sta_callback() function would have used a random pointer to somewhere when processing responses to an async command, while that wasn't valid data it was at least a valid pointer. Now, the pointer will be NULL in this case, thus crashing. Fix this by exiting the function early if no command is passed back which means it was sent asynchronously.

* iwlwifi: get the correct HCMD in the response handlerEmmanuel Grumbach2012-07-261-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Until now, the response handler of a Host Command got the exact same pointer that was also given to the DMA engine. We almost never need to the Host Command that was sent while handling its response, but when we do need it, we see that the command has been modified. This mystery has been elucidated. The FH (our DMA engine) writes its meta data on the buffer in the DRAM. Of course it copies the buffer to the NIC first. This was known to happen for Tx command, but as a matter of fact, it happens to all TFD brought by the FH which doesn't care much about what it brings from DRAM to internal SRAM. So copy the Host Command to yet another buffer so that we can properly pass the buffer that was sent originally to the fw. Do that only if it was request by the user since very few flows need to get the HCMD sent in the response handler.

* iwlwifi: refactor EEPROM reading/parsingJohannes Berg2012-06-061-12/+18
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The EEPROM reading/parsing code is all mixed in the driver today, and the EEPROM is parsed only when we access data from it. This is problematic because the NVM needs to be parsed and that is independent of reading it. Also, the NVM format for new devices will be different and probably require a new parser. Therefore refactor the reading and parsing and create two independent components. Reading the EEPROM requires direct hardware accesses and therefore access to the transport, but parsing is independent and can be done on an NVM blob.
