* mwl8k: Fix the firmware hang issue for 8764Nishant Sarmukadam2013-05-241-2/+9
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The firmware hang issue is not seen very often, though it is still seen sometimes (once in 12 hours in local tests). The changes in the driver ,to interrupt the firmware, are needed when we detect that firmware is stuck and when the host queues are full and we begin to drop packets. This is to ensure that the firmware does not miss any PPA_RDY interrupts to cause the firmware restart dont miss PPA_READY interrupt for SC2 Signed-off-by: Nishant Sarmukadam <nishants@marvell.com> Signed-off-by: Yogesh Ashok Powar <yogeshp@marvell.com> Signed-off-by: John W.

* mwl8k: remove nonstandard rate 72 MbpsJonas Gorski2013-04-221-6/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This rate causes an overflow in the extended rates IE's data rate field, with the overflowing bit setting the Basic Rate Set membership. This results in a bogus 8 Mpbs basic rate, making clients checking them refuse association. Since the rate is likely unused anyway (HT will yield better rates between supporting chips), we can just remove it. This fixes association from wpa_supplicant and Android 4.x and newer.

* | mwl8k: always apply configuration even when device is idleJonas Gorski2013-03-271-6/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Fix settings not being applied when the device is idle and the firmware gets reloaded (because of changing from STA to AP mode). This caused the device using the wrong channel (and likely band), e.g. a 5 GHz only card still defaulted to channel 6 in the 2.4 GHz band when left unconfigured. This issue was always present, but only made visible with "mwl8k: Do not call mwl8k_cmd_set_rf_channel unconditionally" (0f4316b9), since before that the channel was (re-)configured at the next _config call even when it did not change from the mac80211 perspective.

|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When TX aggregation is stopped, there are a few different cases: - connection with the peer was dropped - session stop was requested locally - session stop was requested by the peer - connection was dropped while a session is stopping The behaviour in these cases should be different, if the connection is dropped then the driver should drop all frames, otherwise the frames may continue to be transmitted, aggregated in the case of a locally requested session stop or unaggregated in the case of the peer requesting session stop. Split these different cases so that the driver can act accordingly; however, treat local and remote stop the same way and ask the driver to not send frames as aggregated packets any more. In the case of connection drop, the stop callback the driver is otherwise supposed to call is no longer required. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>

* mwl8k: Send BASTREAM firmware commands per vifYogesh Ashok Powar2012-11-161-6/+7
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The firmware supports 8 macid's corresponding to 8 BSS that can be created in an MBSS environment. Currently, BASTREAM commands were always sent with macid 0. This macid is used to configure the hardware ampdu registers with appropriate BSS address in an MBSS environment. This mac address is used by the hardware for various ampdu related requirements e.g. source address in BAR generation, BA interpretation e.t.c. Using invalid macid results in this mac address not getting appropriately configured in the hardware which results in issues during ampdu traffic. Fix this by sending the BASTREAM commands with appropriate macid.

* mwl8k: Set packet timestamp to 0 when life time expiry is not usedNishant Sarmukadam2012-11-141-0/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | Set tx packet timestamp to 0 in following scenarios:- - All packets in STA mode - Mgmt packets in AP mode - Eapol packets in AP mode In STA mode, this field is unused in the firmware. In AP mode, we should not be expiring mgmt and eapol frames. Setting timestamp to 0 will ensure that. Signed-off-by: Nishant Sarmukadam <nishants@marvell.com> Signed-off-by: John W.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | We have 6.5 Mbps is minimum rate of the link as the criterion for creation of BA. Although we check this before creating the BA stream, by the time amdpu_action is called from the workqueue, the link can get affected in the meantime. Hence, add an additional check in amdpu_action.

Instead, the pointer is now on the stack in a new control struct that is passed as a function parameter to the drivers' tx method.
