2012-03-15rt2x00: rt2800usb: rework txstatus codeStanislaw Gruszka1-2/+8
Currently we read tx status register after each urb data transfer. As callback procedure also trigger reading, that causing we have many "threads" of reading status. To prevent that introduce TX_STATUS_READING flags, and check if we are already in process of sequential reading TX_STA_FIFO, before requesting new reads. Change timer to hrtimer, that make TX_STA_FIFO overruns less possible. Use 200 us for initial timeout, and then reschedule in 100 us period, this values probably have to be tuned. Make changes on txdone work. Schedule it from rt2800usb_tx_sta_fifo_read_completed() callback when first valid status show up. Check in callback if tx status timeout happens, and schedule work on that condition too. That make possible to remove tx status timeout from generic watchdog. I moved that to rt2800usb. Loop in txdone work, that should prevent situation when we queue work, which is already processed, and after finish work is not rescheduled again.

We are getting more and more fields in struct rt2x00_dev that are specific to one or two of the low-level drivers. Instead of putting these fields inside the main structure and thus clobbering all low-level drivers with these fields, introduce the concept of driver data inside struct rt2x00_dev, whose size is indicated by the low-level driver and which can be populated by the low-level driver.

2011-11-15rt2x00: Fix sleep-while-atomic bug in powersaving code.Gertjan van Wingerde1-0/+1
The generic powersaving code that determines after reception of a frame whether the device should go back to sleep or whether is could stay awake was calling rt2x00lib_config directly from RX tasklet context. On a number of the devices this call can actually sleep, due to having to confirm that the sleeping commands have been executed successfully. Fix this by moving the call to rt2x00lib_config to a workqueue call.

Implementing this callback function will cause mac80211 refrain from going to powersave state when there are still untransmitted TX frames in the queues. This would exactly mimic the behaviour of the legacy vendor driver which also doesn't go in powersave mode if there are still TX frames that are not transmitted.

Implement the get_antenna and set_antenna callback functions, which will allow clients to control the antenna for all non-11n hardware (Antenna handling in rt2800 is still a bit magical, so we can't use the set_antenna for those drivers yet). To best support the set_antenna callback some modifications are needed in the diversity handling. We should never look at the default antenna settings to determine if software diversity is enabled. Instead we should set the diversity flag when possible, which will allow the link_tuner to automatically pick up the tuning.

2011-04-19rt2x00: Decrease association time for USB devicesIvo van Doorn1-1/+1
When powersaving is enabled, assocaition times are very high (for WPA2 networks, the time can easily be around the 3 seconds). This is caused, because the flushing of the queues takes too much time. Without the flushing callback mac80211 assumes a timeout of 100ms while scanning. Limit all flush waiting loops to the same maximum. We can apply this maximum by passing the drop status to the driver, which makes sure the driver performs extra actions during the waiting for the queue to become empty. After these changes, association times fall within the healthy range of ~0.6 seconds with powersaving enabled. The difference between association time between powersaving enabled and disabled is now only ~0.1 second (which can also be due to the measuring method).

2011-04-19rt2800usb: add timer to handle TX_STA_FIFOJohannes Stezenbach1-0/+6
TX status is reported by the hardware when a packet has been sent (or after TX failed after possible retries), which is some time after the DMA completion. Since the rt2800usb hardware can not signal interrupts we have to use a timer, otherwise the TX status would only be read by the next packet's TX DMA completion, or by the watchdog thread.

2011-04-19rt2800usb: read TX_STA_FIFO asynchronouslyJohannes Stezenbach1-0/+1
Trying to fix the "TX status report missed" warnings by reading the TX_STA_FIFO entries as quickly as possible. The TX_STA_FIFO is too small in hardware, thus reading it only from the workqueue is too slow and entries get lost. Start an asynchronous read of the TX_STA_FIFO directly from the TX URB completion callback (atomic context, thus it cannot use the blocking rt2800_register_read()). If the async read returns a valid FIFO entry, it is pushed into a larger FIFO inside struct rt2x00_dev, until rt2800_txdone() picks it up. A .tx_dma_done callback is added to struct rt2x00lib_ops to trigger the async read from the URB completion callback.

2011-04-19rt2x00: Split rt2x00dev->flagsIvo van Doorn1-36/+48
The number of flags defined for the rt2x00dev->flags field, has been growing over the years. Currently we are approaching the maximum number of bits which are available in the field. A secondary problem, is that one part of the field are initialized only during boot, because the driver requirements are initialized or device requirements are loaded from the EEPROM. In both cases, the flags are fixed and will not change during device operation. The other flags are the device state, and will change frequently. So far this resulted in the fact that for some flags, the atomic bit accessors are used, while for the others the non-atomic variants are used. By splitting the flags up into a "flags" and "cap_flags" we can put all flags which are fixed inside "cap_flags". This field can then be read non-atomically. In the "flags" field we keep the device state, which is going to be read atomically. This adds more room for more flags in the future, and sanitizes the field access methods.

2011-01-31rt2x00: Refactor beacon code to make use of start- and stop_queueHelmut Schaa1-0/+4
This patch allows to dynamically remove beaconing interfaces without shutting beaconing down on all interfaces. The only place to start and stop beaconing are now the start- and stop_queue callbacks. Hence, we can remove some register writes during interface bring up (config_intf) and only write the correct sync mode to the register there. When multiple beaconing interfaces are present we should enable beaconing as soon as mac80211 enables beaconing on at least one of them. The beacon queue gets stopped when the last beaconing interface was stopped by mac80211. Therefore, introduce another interface counter to keep track ot the number of enabled beaconing interfaces and start or stop the beacon queue accordingly. To allow single interfaces to stop beaconing, add a new driver callback clear_beacon to clear a single interface's beacon without affecting the other interfaces. Don't overload the clear_entry callback for clearing beacons as that would introduce additional overhead (check for each TX queue) into the clear_entry callback which is used on the drivers TX/RX hotpaths. Furthermore, the write beacon callback doesn't need to enable beaconing anymore but since beaconing should be disabled while a new beacon is written or cleared we still disable beacon generation and enable it afterwards again in the driver specific callbacks. However, beacon related interrupts should not be disabled/enabled here, that's solely done from the start- and stop queue callbacks. It would be nice to stop the beacon queue just before the beacon update and enable it afterwards in rt2x00queue itself instead of the current implementation that relies on the driver doing the right thing. However, since start- and stop_queue are mutex protected we cannot use them for atomic beacon updates.

Instead of protecting delayed_flags with a spinlock use atomic bitops to make the code more readable.

2011-01-04rt2x00: remove intf->mac field.Gertjan van Wingerde1-5/+0
The mac field of the rt2x00_intf structure is written to once and used twice. In both these uses the mac address is available via other means. Remove this field as it does not appear to be necessary.

The bssid field in struct rt2x00_intf is only written to once, and is never read from. Remove this field, as it appears to not be needed.
