2013-08-22ath9k_htc: Restore skb headroom when returning skb to mac80211Helmut Schaa1-0/+10
ath9k_htc adds padding between the 802.11 header and the payload during TX by moving the header. When handing the frame back to mac80211 for TX status handling the header is not moved back into its original position. This can result in a too small skb headroom when entering ath9k_htc again (due to a soft retransmission for example) causing an skb_under_panic oops. Fix this by moving the 802.11 header back into its original position before returning the frame to mac80211 as other drivers like rt2x00 or ath5k do.

2013-02-27ath9k_htc: fix signal strength handling issuesFelix Fietkau1-7/+11
The ath9k commit 2ef167557c0a26c88162ecffb017bfcc51eb7b29 (ath9k: fix signal strength reporting issues) fixed an issue where the reported per-frame signal strength reported to mac80211 was being overwritten with an internal average. The same issue is also present in ath9k_htc. In addition to preventing the driver from overwriting the value, this commit also ensures that the internal average (which is used for ANI) only tracks beacons of the AP that we're connected to.

2011-04-13ath9k_htc: Drain pending TX frames properlySujith Manoharan1-1/+30
When doing a channel set or a reset operation the pending frames queued up for transmission have to be flushed and sent to mac80211.

This patch adds proper support for draining and all the callsites namely, channel change/reset/idle/stop are fixed. A separate queue is used for handling failed frames.

2010-11-15ath9k: rework tx queue selection and fix queue stopping/wakingFelix Fietkau1-1/+8
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.
