commit 0a6f3a8ebaf13407523c2c7d575b4ca2debd23ba upstream.
The current code uses the same index value both
for the channel information array and for the TX
power table. The index starts from 14, however the
index of the TX power table must start from zero.
Fix it, in order to get the correct TX power value
for a given channel.
The changes in rt61pci.c and rt73usb.c are compile
tested only.

commit a396e10019eaf3809b0219c966865aaafec12630 upstream.
We need to program the rfkill switch GPIO pin direction to input at
device initialization time, not only when the interface is brought up.
Doing this only when the interface is brought up could lead to rfkill
detecting the switch is turned on erroneously and inability to create
the interface and bringing it up.

module_param(bool) used to counter-intuitively take an int. In
fddd5201 (mid-2009) we allowed bool or int/unsigned int using a messy
trick.
It's time to remove the int/unsigned int option. For this version
it'll simply give a warning, but it'll break next kernel version.
(Thanks to Joe Perches for suggesting coccinelle for 0/1 -> true/false).

This converts the drivers in drivers/net/* to use the
module_usb_driver() macro which makes the code smaller and a bit
simpler.
Added bonus is that it removes some unneeded kernel log messages about
drivers loading and/or unloading.

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.
This should make powersaving and rt2x00 a better couple.

The USB drivers don't support automatically waking up when in powersaving mode,
add a work object which will wakeup the device in time to receive the next beacon.
Based on that beacon, we either go back into powersaving mode, or we remain awake
to receive the buffered frames for our station.
Some part of the code, especially rt2x00lib_find_ie and rt2x00lib_rxdone_check_ps
are inspired on the code from carl9170.

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.

Both USB and PCI drivers allow a system administrator to dynamically add
USB/PCI IDs to the device table that a driver supports via the
/sys/bus/{usb,pci,pci_express}/drivers/<driver-name>/new_id files.
However, for the rt2x00 drivers using this method currently crashes the
system with a NULL pointer failure.
This is due to the set-up of rt2x00 where the probe functions require a
rt2x00_ops structure in the driver_info field of the probed device. As
this field is empty for the dynamically added devices this fails for
these devices.
Fix this by introducing driver-specific probe wrappers that do nothing
but calling the bus-specific probe functions with the rt2x00_ops structure
as an argument, rather than depending on the driver_info field.

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.

HT and no-HT rt2x00 devices use a partly different TX descriptor.
Optimize the tx desciptor memory layout by putting the PLCP and HT
substructs into a union and introduce a new driver flag to decide which
TX desciptor format is used by the device.
This saves us the expensive PLCP calculation fOr HT devices and the HT
descriptor setup on no-HT devices.

In some cases (tx path for example) we don't need to check for non-tx
queues in rt2x00queue_get_queue. Hence, introduce a new method
rt2x00queue_get_tx_queue that is only valid for tx queues and use it in
places where only tx queues are valid.
Furthermore, this new method is quite short and as such can be inlined
to avoid the function call overhead.
This only converts the txdone functions of drivers that don't use an ATIM
queue and the generic tx path.

Both rt61pci and rt73usb check the Michael MIC in hardware and strip the
Michael MIC from received frames. This is perfectly allowed by mac80211 as
long as this is properly reported to mac80211.
Both these drivers reported the Michael MIC handling properly to mac80211, but
still contained a FIXME comment on this, which is not needed to be handled, since
mac80211 doesn't really need the Michael MIC in this case.

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.

As part of the queue refactoring, we now introduce
3 queue commands: start, kick, stop.
- Start: will enable a queue, for TX this will
not mean anything, while for beacons and RX
this will update the registers to enable the queue.
- Kick: This will kick all pending frames to
the hardware. This is needed for the TX queue
to push all frames to the HW after the queue
has been started
- Stop: This will stop the queue in the hardware,
and cancel any pending work (So this doesn't
mean the queue is empty after a stop!).
Move all code from the drivers into the appropriate
functions, and link those calls to the old rt2x00lib
callback functions (we will fix this later when we
refactor the queue control inside rt2x00lib).

Commit 0204464329c17ba6d293e1899f71223599a0e582 "Check for specific changed
flags when updating the erp config" changed the way in which a new beacon
interval gets handled. However, due to a bug in rt2800usb and rt2800pci the
beacon interval was reset during each scan, thus causing problems in AdHoc
mode.
Fix this by not cleaning up the beacon interval when killing the beacon queue
but just prevent the device from sending out beacons.

All rt2x00 devices used the same Tx and Rx ring size (24 entries) till
now. Newer devices (like rt2800) can however make use of a larger TX and
RX ring due to 11n capabilities (AMPDUs of size 64 for example).
Hence, bring rt2x00 in sync with the legacy drivers and use the same TX
and RX ring sizes. Also remove the global defines RX_ENTRIES, TX_ENTRIES,
BEACON_ENTRIES and ATIM_ENTRIES and use per driver values.
That is 24 entries for rt2400pci, 32 entries for rt2500pci, rt2500usb,
rt61pci and rt73usb and 128 (RX) and 64 (TX) for rt2800pci and rt2800usb.

Since rt2x00 USB devices have no chance to know when a beacon was sent
out in AP mode currently all broad- and multicast traffic is buffered in
mac80211 but never sent out at all.
Unfortunately we have no chance in sending the traffic out after a
DTIM beacon due to hw limitations. Hence, instead of never sending the
buffered traffic out better send it out immediately.

Previously rt2x00 was always updating all erp related config variables
even though mac80211 might only have changed one. Hence, pass the
changed flags to the config_erp driver callback so that the driver
can limit the changes to the correct values.
This fixes an issue in AP mode where the beacon interval is not
initialized (and thus zero) but still sent to the hardware causing an

maximum value (which is also handled as default value).
As a result, the TX power of the device was being limited to
the default value, which is often quite low compared to the
real maximum acceptable value.
This patch allows each driver to set the maximum value on a
per-channel basis which is forwarded to mac80211. The default
value will be preserved for now, in case we want to update
mac80211 to differentiate between the maximum and default txpower.
This fixes bug complaining about limited TX power values like:

write_tx_desc shouldn't pass a rt2x00dev and skb pointer,
instead it should use the same format as other TX frame
callback functions, which is passing the data_entry pointer
which contains all the information which is needed to work
on a TX frame.
Most callers of the kick_tx_queue and kill_tx_queue already
have the data_queue pointer, so rather then sending the QID
with the given function, when the driver requests a new
pointer to the data_queue, it is more efficient to just
send the data_queue pointer directly.

These changes may be slightly safer in some instances.
There are other kzalloc calls with a multiply, but those
calls are typically "small fixed #" * sizeof(some pointer)"
and those are not converted.

rt2x00 was keeping a copy of ieee80211_rx_status embedded
into the rt2x00_dev structure. For each RX frame, this structure
was copied into the skb->cb where mac80211 would handle it further.
However at the moment only the fields current band, and frequency
were updated. Whereas the band was already provided directly within
the rt2x00_dev structure. Save a memcpy action, and reduce memory
a bit, by adding a curr_freq field to rt2x00_dev, and completely
remove the ieee80211_rx_status structure from rt2x00_dev.

Use threaded interrupts for all rt2x00 PCI devices.
This has several generic advantages:
- Reduce the time we spend in hard irq context
- Use non-atmic mac80211 functions for rx/tx
Furthermore implementing broad- and multicast buffering will be
much easier in process context while maintaining low latency and
updating the beacon just before transmission (pre tbtt interrupt)
can also be done in process context.

Implement watchdog monitoring for USB devices (PCI support can
be added later). This will determine if URBs being uploaded to
the hardware are actually returning. Both rt2500usb and rt2800usb
have shown that URBs being uploaded can remain hanging without
being released by the hardware.
By using this watchdog, a queue can be reset when this occurs.
For rt2800usb it has been tested that the connection is preserved
even though this interruption.

While scanning the link tuner must be disabled. Otherwise
it will interfere with receiving all beacons for each channel
due to changing sensitivity levels.
