2010-02-08p54: remove get_tx_stats() mac80211 opKalle Valo
get_tx_stats() will be removed from mac80211. p54 uses struct ieee80211_tx_queue_stats also internally, so create a new identical struct p54_tx_queue_stats which the driver can use. Compile-tested only. Signed-off-by: Kalle Valo <kalle.valo@iki.fi> Tested-by: Christian Lamparter <chunkeey@googlemail.com> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>

This patch enhances the eeprom parser to generate customized channel list for every device. Signed-off-by: Christian Lamparter <chunkeey@web.de> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>
2009-07-24p54: re-enable power save featureChristian Lamparter
This patch re-enables p54's power save features and adds a workaround which temporarily alters the device's power state in order to allow ps-polls to be sent and buffered data to be retrieved during psm.

2009-04-22p54: utilize all available key slots for decryption offloadChristian Lamparter
This patch takes care of outstanding TODOs: /* TODO: some devices have 4 more free slots for rx keys */ Now the driver can utilize all available key slots instead of just 4. Obviously, this helps most in AP/IBSS(/MESH) mode, when we have to use more different keys. Signed-off-by: Christian Lamparter <chunkeey@web.de> Signed-off-by: John W.

2009-04-22p54: more SoftLED updatesChristian Lamparter
This patch hopefully finishes the SoftLED code: - It adds two more LEDs (rx and radio). (the FW claims it can support up to 16 LEDs, but I doubt that any vendor put more than 4 on a board) - update the LEDs in a _delayed_ workqueue. No one reported any more crashes. (see: "PATCH] p54: fix race condition in memory management") So we can stop burning the mm code.

2009-03-16p54: unify ieee80211 device registrationChristian Lamparter
All three drivers (p54pci, p54usb and p54spi) are implementing the same functionality three times. So, why not put it into the shared library?! Signed-off-by: Christian Lamparter <chunkeey@web.de> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>
2009-01-29wireless: restrict to 32 legacy ratesJohannes Berg
Since the standards only define 12 legacy rates, 32 is certainly a sane upper limit and we don't need to use u64 everywhere. Add sanity checking that no more than 32 rates are registered and change the variables to u32 throughout. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes@sipsolutions.net> Signed-off-by: John W.

2009-01-29p54: upgrade memrecord to p54_tx_infoChristian Lamparter
mac80211 reserves 24 bytes in skb->cb for the driver. So far, we only used them to keep track of used and free device memory. But p54spi will need a slice of it, as well as the stuck frame detection.

2009-01-29p54: refactor p54_alloc_skbChristian Lamparter
Old firmwares had no problems processing frames which filled eighth of the memory window. However we have to be a bit more careful with fat frames when we talk to new firmwares. Apart from that, I confess the old logic was a bit weird and not very sophisticated. Signed-off-by: Christian Lamparter <chunkeey@web.de> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>
2009-01-29p54: enable rx/tx antenna diversity by eeprom bitsChristian Lamparter

2008-12-19p54: remove free_on_tx parameterChristian Lamparter
This patch simplifies the tx code a bit and will be necessary for the upcoming stlc45xx<->p54 port. In detail: we no longer have to tell all back-end drivers directly, if we want to free a frame right after it was send to the firmware, or if we do it in the library callback later.

2008-12-19p54: more accurate rssi to dBm conversionChristian Lamparter

2008-12-19p54: move statistic timer update routine into a workqueueChristian Lamparter
This patch moves a good chunk of code from the former statistic update timer routine into a workqueue, which is kindly provided by mac80211. Also as a nice side-effect we can lay the foundation for other essential housekeeping features we want to do in the future. e.g: - drain the (clogged) tx_queue. - initiate bursts.

2008-12-05p54: refactoringChristian Lamparter
Thanks to the introduction of "changed" flags, we no longer have to do the bookkeeping of p54's firmware state for everything. Thus we can cut down redundancy code. Signed-off-by: Christian Lamparter <chunkeey@web.de> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>

2008-11-25p54: honour bss_info_changed's basic_rates and other settingsChristian Lamparter
As was pointed out in "p54: honour bss_info_changed's short slot time settings", bss_info_changed provides more useful settings that can be used by the driver. Signed-off-by: Christian Lamparter <chunkeey@web.de> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>

2008-10-31p54: integrate parts of lmac_longbow.h and other parts of stlc45xxJohn W. Linville

2008-10-31p54: fix memory managementChristian Lamparter
We have to be careful if multiple "control frames" are passed in a very short intervals to the device's firmware. As p54_assign_address always put them into same memory location. To guarantee that this won't happen anymore, we have to treat control frames like normal data frames in the devices own memory management.

2008-10-31mac80211: provide sequence numbersJohannes Berg
I've come to think that not providing sequence numbers for the normal STA mode case was a mistake, at least two drivers now had to implement code they wouldn't otherwise need, and I believe at76_usb and adm8211 might be broken. This patch makes mac80211 assign a sequence number to all those frames that need one except beacons. That means that if a driver only implements modes that do not do beaconing it need not worry about the sequence number. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes@sipsolutions.net> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>
2008-10-31p54: honour bss_info_changed's short slot time settingsChristian Lamparter
This patch was made on behalf of Johannes request. "mac80211 and IEEE80211_CONF_SHORT_SLOT_TIME" Of course, bss_info_changed provides some more useful data. e.g.: basic_rates, dtim_period, beacon_int and maybe even more. Everything can be hooked up if it's necessary. Signed-off-by: Christian Lamparter <chunkeey@web.de> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>

2008-09-08p54: better firmware supportChristian Lamparter
This patch hopefully contains all necessary changes to support firmwares for all devices up to atleast 2.13.3.0. (or: LowerMAC Protocol Rev: 5.5 ) And this is a big win, since: * newer firmwares are more stable and reliable than the old ones. * no problems anymore with packages > 1399 octets (without lowering the MTU). * monitor mode finally works on USB for more than just a few seconds.

2008-09-05p54: move eeprom code into common libraryChristian Lamparter
Both p54pci and p54usb uses a good chunk of device specific code to get the data from the device's eeprom into the drivers memory. So, this patch reduces the code size and will it make life easier if someone wants to implement ethtool eeprom dumping features.

2008-09-05p54: enhance firmware parser to reduce memory wasteChristian Lamparter
This patch greatly reduces one of biggest memory waste in the driver. The firmware headers provides the right values for extra head-/tailroom and mtu size which are usually much lower than the old hardcoded ones.

2008-08-22p54: rename prism54xyz -> p54xyzChristian Lamparter
It's been a long time, but fullmac prism54 driver is still around... I think we should rename every prism54* in order to avoid some confusion about "what is actually what" in the future ;-).

2008-08-07p54: Fix for TX sequence number problemLarry Finger
Following "mac80211: fix TX sequence numbers", if a packet has the IEEE80211_TX_CTL_ASSIGN_SEQ assigned, a sequence number must be supplied, either by hardware or software. AFAIK, no such hardware exists for the p54, thus it must be done in software. With this patch, a connection qith p54usb is stable, whereas the interface went off-line in 2-3 hours without this change. Note that this code will have to be reworked for proper sequence numbers on beacons. In addition, the sequence number has been placed in the hardware state, not the vif state.

2008-08-04p54: Fix potential concurrent access to private dataLarry Finger
Experience with the rtl8187 driver has shown that mac80211 can make calls to the config callback routine in rapid succession. This patch creates a mutex that protects the private data in several of the routines called by mac80211. Signed-off-by: Larry Finger <Larry.Finger@lwfinger.net> Signed-off-by: John W.

2008-05-07mac80211: clean up get_tx_stats callbackJohannes Berg
The callback takes a ieee80211_tx_queue_stats with a contained array of ieee80211_tx_queue_stats_data, remove the former, rename the latter to ieee80211_tx_queue_stats and make tx_stats() take the array directly.
