2014-12-01ath9k: do not access hardware on IRQs during resetFelix Fietkau

2014-11-17ath9k: Handle failure to send NoASujith Manoharan

2014-11-17ath9k: Cancel pending offchannel operationsSujith Manoharan
This patch makes sure that pending roc/scan operations are cancelled properly when a new context is assigned/unassigned. The flush_work() call to flush out any scheduled channel context work is removed, instead, sc->mutex is dropped to allow any pending work to get a chance to complete by the channel scheduler. Also, increase the timeout to allow a switch to an active GO. Signed-off-by: Sujith Manoharan <c_manoha@qca.qualcomm.com> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>

It will fail, with iw events looking like this (in these logs, several sta are trying to come up, but symptom is the same with just one) The patch causing the regression made quite a few changes, but the part I think caused this particular problem was not recalculating the bssid mask when adding and removing interfaces.

2014-10-27ath9k: fix processing RXORN interruptsFelix Fietkau
The "goto chip_reset" is a bit misleading, because it does not actually issue a chip reset. Instead it is bypassing processing of other interrupts and assumes that the tasklet will issue a chip reset. In the case of RXORN this does not happen, so bypassing processing of other interrupts will simply allow them to fire again. Even if RXORN was triggering a reset, it is not critical enough to need the bypass here. Signed-off-by: Felix Fietkau <nbd@openwrt.org> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>
2014-10-27ath9k: Do not start BA when scanningSujith Manoharan
mac80211 currently has a race which can be hit with this sequence: * Start a scan operation. * TX BA is initiated by ieee80211_start_tx_ba_session(). * Driver sets up internal state and calls ieee80211_start_tx_ba_cb_irqsafe(). * mac80211 adds a packet to sdata->skb_queue with type IEEE80211_SDATA_QUEUE_AGG_START. * ieee80211_iface_work() doesn't process the packet because scan is in progress. * ADDBA response timer expires and the sta/tid is torn down. * Driver receives BA stop notification and calls ieee80211_stop_tx_ba_cb_irqsafe(). * This is also added to the queue by mac80211. * Now, scan finishes. At this point, the queued up packets might be processed if some other operation schedules the sdata work. Since the tids have been cleaned up already, warnings are hit. If this doesn't happen, the packets are left in the queue until the interface is torn down. Since initiating a BA session when scan is in progress leads to flaky connections, especially in MCC mode, we can drop the TX BA request. This improves connectivity with legacy clients in MCC mode.

2014-10-27ath9k: Improve flush() in mcc modeSujith Manoharan
The flush timeout in MCC mode is very small, since we are constrained by the time slice for each channel context, but since only the HW queues are flushed when switching contexts, it is acceptable. Since the SW queues are also emptied in the mac80211 flush() callback, a larger duration is needed. Add an override argument to __ath9k_flush() and set it when flush() is called in MCC mode. This allows the driver to drain both the SW and HW queues. Signed-off-by: Sujith Manoharan <c_manoha@qca.qualcomm.com> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>
2014-10-27ath9k: Fix HW scan abortSujith Manoharan
Instead of using ATH_CHANCTX_EVENT_ASSIGN to abort a HW scan when a new interface becomes active, use the mgd_prepare_tx() callback.

2014-10-27ath9k: Check for active GO in mgd_prepare_tx()Sujith Manoharan

2014-10-27ath9k: Send AUTHORIZED event only for station modeSujith Manoharan
ATH_CHANCTX_EVENT_AUTHORIZED is required to trigger the MCC scheduler when a station interface becomes authorized. But, since the driver gets station state notifications when the current operating mode is AP too, make sure that we send ATH_CHANCTX_EVENT_AUTHORIZED only when the interface is in station mode.

2014-10-27ath9k: Check for pending frames properlySujith Manoharan
Pending frames in the driver can be present either in the HW queues or SW. ath9k_has_pending_frames() currently checks for the HW queues first and then checks if any ACs are queued in the driver. In MCC mode, we need to check the HW queues alone, since the SW queues are just marked as 'stopped' - they will be processed in the next context switch. But since we don't differentiate this now, mention whether we want to check if there are frames in the SW queues. * The flush() callback checks both HW and SW queues. * The tx_frames_pending() callback does the same. * The call to __ath9k_flush() in MCC mode checks HW queues alone.

2014-10-27ath9k: Use configurable timeout for flushSujith Manoharan

2014-10-27ath9k: Set ATH_OP_HW_RESET before HW resetSujith Manoharan
When a HW reset is done, the interrupt tasklet is disabled before ISRs are disabled in the HW. This allows a small window where the HW can still generate interrupts. Since the tasklet is disabled and not killed, it is not scheduled but deferred for execution at a later time. This happens because ATH_OP_HW_RESET is not set when ath_reset() is called. When the hw_reset_work workqueue is used, this problem doesn't arise because ATH_OP_HW_RESET is set and the ISR bails out. Set ATH_OP_HW_RESET properly in ath_reset() to avoid this race - all the ath_reset_internal() callers have been converted to use ath_reset() in the previous patch.

2014-10-27ath9k: Unify reset APISujith Manoharan

2014-10-27ath9k: Enable multi-channel properlySujith Manoharan
In MCC mode, currently the decision to enable the multi-channel state machine is done based on the association status if one of the interfaces assigned to a context is in station mode. This allows the driver to switch to the other context before the current station is able to complete the 4-way handshake in case it is required and this causes problems. Instead, enable multi-channel mode when the station moves to the authorized state. This disallows an early switch to the other channel.

2014-10-23ath9k: Enable HW queue control only for MCCSujith Manoharan

2014-10-07ath9k: Fix crash in MCC modeSujith Manoharan
When a channel context is removed, the hw_queue_base is set to -1, this will result in a panic because ath9k_chanctx_stop_queues() can be called on an interface that is not assigned to any context yet - for example, when trying to scan.

2014-10-02ath9k: Fix queue handling for channel contextsSujith Manoharan
When a full chip reset is done, all the queues across all VIFs are stopped, but if MCC is enabled, only the queues of the current context is awakened, when we complete the reset. This results in unfairness for the inactive context. Since frames are queued internally in the driver if there is a context mismatch, we can awaken all the queues when coming out of a reset. The VIF-specific queues are still used in flow control, to ensure fairness when traffic is high. Signed-off-by: Sujith Manoharan <c_manoha@qca.qualcomm.com> Signed-off-by: John W.

2014-09-26ath9k: Fix p2p address managementSujith Manoharan
When multiple channel contexts are enabled, a p2p interface that is assigned to a context will have an address that is different from the device mac address, which is used by wpa_s as the p2p device ID. Certain frames like provision requests use the device address and these get dropped since ath9k_calculate_summary_state() iterates over only the active interfaces in a context and the device address is not used.
