* mwl8k: Traffic to clients gets affected when one client leaves a cyrpto bssNishant Sarmukadam2011-08-221-3/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When a client disassociates from a crypto enabled bss, data traffic to other clients connected to the bss is stalled. This was due to a boolean variable used to keep track if HW crypto is enabled i.e. if set key has been called to add a key. This flag was being reset every time delete key was called e.g when a station leaves the bss. Once the flag is reset, rx status flags were not being set for connected clients which disrupts traffic to these clients. Fix this issue by not resetting the flag since we do not need to reset this flag during the life time of the bss. Signed-off-by: Nishant Sarmukadam <nishants@marvell.com> Signed-off-by: John W.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The tx_headroom required for mwl8k driver is 32 bytes and it can use the space for 802.11 header received from mac80211. mwl8k considers the smallest 802.11 frame (CTS2self of 10 bytes) that can be received from mac80211 to compute the extra_tx_headroom as 22 (32 - 10) bytes. When the wireless interface is part of bridge, this extra_tx_headroom requirement results in a memcpy in mac80211 (in function pskb_expand_head) for all the data frames needing L2 forwarding/bridging, when NET_SKB_PAD is defined as 32. This patch reduces the extra_tx_headroom by 8 bytes so that memcpy of data frames in mac80211 is avoided in this case. The resize will be required in driver for frames with 802.11 header size of less than 18 bytes.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This is in preparation to support life time expiry of packets in the hardware to avoid head-of-line blocking where a slow client can hog a tx queue and affect the traffic to a faster client from the same queue. Time stamp the packets in driver to allow dropping them in the hardware if they are queued for more than 500ms. If queues are stopped, packets will be queued up outside the driver. Since we will be able to timestamp the packets only after they hit the driver, the timestamp will be less accurate since we cannot consider the time the packets spent in queues outside the driver. With this commit, to achieve accurate timestamping, the tx queues will not be stopped in normal conditions. The only scenarios where the queues will be stopped are when firmware commands are executing or if the interface is brought down. Now, we need to be prepared for a situation where packets hit the driver even after the tx queues are full. Drop all such packets in the driver itself.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Firmware APIv2 adds the following enhancements: -- capabilities are reported by the firmware -- API supports up to 8 dedicated AMPDU streams -- optional packet timestamping and expiration can be enabled. Specifically, packets that are queued in firmware for longer than 500ms will be dropped if this option is used.

* | mwl8k: refactor in preparation for APIv2 updateBrian Cavagnolo2011-03-301-13/+38
|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | Specifically, APIv2 will specify a variable number of AMPDU queues in the MWL8K_CMD_GET_HW_SPEC. So init the tx queues after MWL8K_CMD_GET_HW_SPEC for ap fw. Also, we make it safe to deinit queues that have not been init'd. This happens if the mwl8k_get_hw_spec_ap routine fails, for example.

* mac80211: make tx() operation return voidJohannes Berg2011-02-251-10/+5
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The return value of the tx operation is commonly misused by drivers, leading to errors. All drivers will drop frames if they fail to TX the frame, and they must also properly manage the queues (if they didn't, mac80211 would already warn). Removing the ability for drivers to return a BUSY value also allows significant cleanups of the TX TX handling code in mac80211. Note that this also fixes a bug in ath9k_htc, the old "return -1" there was wrong.

| | | | | | | | | | | All mwl8k parts perform rate control in firmware. Make this known to mac80211 so that it does not launch minstrel. Also, because actual tx rate information is not available from the firmware, invalidate the rate status before returning the skb to mac80211.
