2011-04-13ath9k_htc: Drain packets on station removalSujith Manoharan
When a station entry is removed, there could still be pending packets destined for that station in the HIF layer. Sending these to the target is not necessary, so drain them in the driver itself.

2011-04-13ath9k_htc: Drain pending TX frames properlySujith Manoharan
When doing a channel set or a reset operation the pending frames queued up for transmission have to be flushed and sent to mac80211. Fixing this has to be done in two separate steps: * Flush queued frames and kill the URB TX completion handler. * Complete all the frames that in the TX pending queue. This patch adds proper support for draining and all the callsites namely, channel change/reset/idle/stop are fixed. A separate queue is used for handling failed frames.

2011-04-13ath9k_htc: Add TX slotsSujith Manoharan
Maintain a bitmap of slots for transmission and update the cookie field for every packet with the slot value. This value would be used for matching packets when TX completion processing is added.

2011-04-13ath9k_htc: Move endpoint header parsing to TX taskletSujith Manoharan
There is no need to do endpoint header removal in the ISR. Also, this is needed when TX slot management is added later on. Use a helper function to strip the driver header. Signed-off-by: Sujith Manoharan <Sujith.Manoharan@atheros.com> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>
2011-04-13ath9k_htc: Introduce new HTC APISujith Manoharan
A new routine that takes an endpoint explicitly is introduced. The normal htc_send() now retrieves the endpoint from the packet's private data. This would be useful in TX completion when the endpoint ID would be required. While at it, use a helper function to map the queue to endpoint. Data/mgmt/beacon packets use htc_send(), while WMI comamnds pass the endpoint to HTC. Signed-off-by: Sujith Manoharan <Sujith.Manoharan@atheros.com> Signed-off-by: John W.

2011-04-13ath9k_htc: Fix TX queue managementSujith Manoharan
Handle queue start/stop properly by maintaining a counter to check if the pending frame count has exceeded the threshold. Otherwise, packets would be dropped needlessly.

2011-04-13ath9k_htc: Use SKB's private area for TX parametersSujith Manoharan
For all packets sent through the USB_WLAN_TX_PIPE endpoint, the private area of the SKB's tx_info can be used to store driver-specific information. For packets sent through USB_REG_OUT_PIPE, this will not make a difference since they are routed through a separate routine that doesn't access the private region. This would help in situations where TX information is required in the URB callback. Signed-off-by: Sujith Manoharan <Sujith.Manoharan@atheros.com> Signed-off-by: John W.

2011-04-13ath9k_htc: Fix RX length checkSujith Manoharan

2011-02-23ath9k_htc: Remove OP_ASSOCIATED variableSujith Manoharan
mac80211 stores the association state in ieee80211_bss_conf. Use this and remove the local state, which is incorrect anyway since it is stored globally and not on a per-VIF basis. Restarting ANI and reconfiguration of HW beacon timers when a scan run ends requires more work. This is handled by iterating over the active interfaces. Finally, remove the useless check for associated status in RX processing. Signed-off-by: Sujith Manoharan <Sujith.Manoharan@atheros.com> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>

2010-11-15ath9k: rework tx queue selection and fix queue stopping/wakingFelix Fietkau
The current ath9k tx queue handling code showed a few issues that could lead to locking issues, tx stalls due to stopped queues, and maybe even DMA issues. The main source of these issues is that in some places the queue is selected via skb queue mapping in places where this mapping may no longer be valid. One such place is when data frames are transmitted via the CAB queue (for powersave buffered frames). This is made even worse by a lookup WMM AC values from the assigned tx queue (which is undefined for the CAB queue). This messed up the pending frame counting, which in turn caused issues with queues getting stopped, but not woken again. To fix these issues, this patch removes an unnecessary abstraction separating a driver internal queue number from the skb queue number (not to be confused with the hardware queue number). It seems that this abstraction may have been necessary because of tx queue preinitialization from the initvals. This patch avoids breakage here by pushing the software <-> hardware queue mapping to the function that assigns the tx queues and redefining the WMM AC definitions to match the numbers used by mac80211 (also affects ath9k_htc). To ensure consistency wrt. pending frame count tracking, these counters are moved to the ath_txq struct, updated with the txq lock held, but only where the tx queue selected by the skb queue map actually matches the tx queue used by the driver for the frame.
