2013-10-18ath9k: add TX99 supportLuis R. Rodriguez12-17/+522
TX99 support enables Specific Absorption Rate (SAR) testing. SAR is the unit of measurement for the amount of radio frequency(RF) absorbed by the body when using a wireless device. The RF exposure limits used are expressed in the terms of SAR, which is a measure of the electric and magnetic field strength and power density for transmitters operating at frequencies from 300 kHz to 100 GHz. Regulatory bodies around the world require that wireless device be evaluated to meet the RF exposure limits set forth in the governmental SAR regulations. In the examples below, for more bit rate options see the iw TX bitrate setting documentation: http://wireless.kernel.org/en/users/Documentation/iw#Modifying_transmit_bitrates Example usage: iw phy phy0 interface add moni0 type monitor ip link set dev moni0 up iw dev moni0 set channel 36 HT40+ iw set bitrates mcs-5 4 echo 10 > /sys/kernel/debug/ieee80211/phy0/ath9k/tx99_power echo 1 > /sys/kernel/debug/ieee80211/phy0/ath9k/tx99 Signed-off-by: Rajkumar Manoharan <rmanohar@qca.qualcomm.com> Signed-off-by: Luis R.

2013-10-18ath5k: fix regression in tx status processingFelix Fietkau1-3/+3
The regression was introduced in the following commit: 0967e01e8e713ed2982fb4eba8ba13794e9a6e89 "ath5k: make use of the new rate control API" ath5k_tx_frame_completed saves the intended per-rate retry counts before they are cleared by ieee80211_tx_info_clear_status, however at this point the information in info->status.rates is incomplete. This causes significant throughput degradation and excessive packet loss on links where high bit rates don't work properly. Move the copy from bf->rates a few lines up to ensure that the saved retry counts are updated, and that they are really cleared in info->status.rates after the call to ieee80211_tx_info_clear_status.

2013-10-16ath10k: remove unnecessary checksMichal Kazior1-21/+0
mac80211 interface iteration functions that were used originally iterated over interfaces that weren't re-added to the driver during recovery. Since internal vif list is now used it's safe to remove the safe-guard as internal vif list is based on add/remove_interface function which guarantees that vdev is created in FW before it is iterated over.

2013-10-16ath10k: fix scheduling while atomic config bugMichal Kazior1-84/+62
Recent HTC/WMI changes introduced the bug. ath10k was using _atomic iteration function with sleepable functions. mac80211 provides another iteration function but it cannot be safely called in hw_config() callback due to local->iflist_mtx being possibly acquired already. The patch uses internal vif list for iteration purposes and removes/refactors no longer necessary _iter functions.

2013-10-16ath10k: fix add_interface failure handlingMichal Kazior1-13/+40

2013-10-16ath10k: use workqueue to set WEP TX keyMichal Kazior2-18/+39
Recent WMI/HTC changes made it possible for WMI commands to sleep (if there's not enough HTC TX credits to submit a command). TX path is in an atomic context so calling WMI commands in it is wrong. This simply moves WEP key index update to a worker and fixes the 'scheduling while atomic' bug. This still leaves multiple WEP key handling laggy, i.e. some frames may be TXed with an old/different key (although recipient should still be able to RX them). kvalo: changed the title Signed-off-by: Michal Kazior <michal.kazior@tieto.com> Signed-off-by: Kalle Valo <kvalo@qca.qualcomm.com>

The most important ones are the addition of a new MGMT command to enable/disable LE advertisement and the introduction of the HCI user channel to allow applications to get directly and exclusive access to Bluetooth devices." As to the ath10k bits, Kalle says: "Bartosz dropped support for qca98xx hw1.0 hardware from ath10k, it's just too much to support it. Michal added support for the new firmware interface. Marek fixed WEP in AP and IBSS mode. Rest of the changes are minor fixes or cleanups." And also: "Major changes are: * throughput improvements including aligning the RX frames correctly and optimising HTT layer (Michal) * remove qca98xx hw1.0 support (Bartosz) * add support for firmware version 999.999.0.636 (Michal) * firmware htt statistics support (Kalle) * fix WEP in AP and IBSS mode (Marek) * fix a mutex unlock balance in debugfs file (Shafi) And of course there's a lot of smaller fixes and cleanup." For the wl12xx bits, Luca says: "Here are some patches intended for 3.13. Eliad is upstreaming a bunch of patches that have been pending in the internal tree. Mostly bugfixes and other small improvements." Along with that... Arend and friends bring us a batch of brcmfmac updates, Larry Finger offers some rtlwifi refactoring, and Sujith sends the usual batch of ath9k updates.
