2013-01-22ath9k: clean up processing of pending tx frames on resetFelix Fietkau4-59/+32
Dropping packets from aggregation sessions is usually not a good idea, as it might upset the synchronization of the BlockAck receive window of the remote node. The use of the retry_tx parameter to reset/tx-drain functions also seemed a bit arbitrary. This patch removes this parameter altogether and ensures that pending tx frames are not dropped for no good reason. Signed-off-by: Felix Fietkau <nbd@openwrt.org> Signed-off-by: John W.

When AP responds with appropriate status code, we forward that code correctly to cfg80211. But sometimes when there is no response from AP, our firmware uses proprietary status codes.

2013-01-22rt2x00: Improve TX status handling for BlockAckReq framesHelmut Schaa4-5/+169
Since rt2800 hardware isn't capable of reporting the TX status of BlockAckReq frames implement the TX status handling of BARs in rt2x00lib. We keep track of all BARs that are send out and try to match incoming BAs to the appropriate BARs. This allows us to report a more or less accurate TX status for BAR frames which in turn improves BA session stability. This is loosley based on Christian Lamparter's patch for carl9170 "carl9170: fix HT peer BA session corruption". We have to walk the list of pending BARs for every rx'red BA even though most BAs don't belong to any of these BARs as they are just acknowledging an AMPDU. To keep that overhead low use RCU which allows us to walk the list of pending BARs without the need to acquire a lock. This however requires us to _copy_ relevant information from the BAR (RA, TA, control field, start sequence number) into our BAR list entry.

2013-01-16iwlwifi: audit single frames from AGG queue in RSEmmanuel Grumbach1-0/+2
The rate scaling won't treat the information in a frame with IEEE80211_TX_CTL_AMPDU set if IEEE80211_TX_STAT_AMPDU is cleared. But all the frames coming from an AGG tx queue have IEEE80211_TX_CTL_AMPDU set, and IEEE80211_TX_STAT_AMPDU is set only if the frame was sent in an AMPDU. This means that all the data in frames in AGG tx queues that aren't sent as an AMPDU is thrown away. This is even more harmful when in bad link conditions, the frames are sent in an AMPDU and then finally sent as single frame. So a lot of failures weren't reported and the rate scaling got stuck in high rates leading to very poor connectivity. Fix that by clearing IEEE80211_TX_CTL_AMPDU when the frame isn't part of an AMPDU. This bug was introduced by 2eb81a40aa521035ff9c8c8309e482dff523f8c9 iwlwifi: don't clear CTL_AMPDU on frame status This fix basically reverts the aforementioned commit.

The commit "ath9k: fix rx flush handling" added a deadlock that happens because ath_rx_tasklet is called in a section that has already taken the rx buffer lock. It seems that the only purpose of the rxbuflock was a band-aid fix to the reset vs rx tasklet race, which has been properly fixed in the commit "ath9k: add a better fix for the rx tasklet vs rx flush race".

2013-01-11ath9k: fix rx flush handlingFelix Fietkau3-21/+12
Right now the rx flush is not doing anything useful on AR9003+, as it only works if the buffers in the rx FIFO have not been purged yet, as is done by ath_stoprecv. To fix this, always call ath_flushrecv from within ath_stoprecv before the FIFO is emptied, but still after the hw receive path has been stopped. This ensures that frames received (and ACKed by the hardware) shortly before a reset will be seen by the software, which should improve A-MPDU session stability.
