2011-04-07wl1251: Add support for idle modeJarkko Nikula
On Nokia N900 the wl1251 consumes the most power when the interface is up but not associated to access point (that supports PSM). In terms of battery current consumption, the consumption is ~180 mA higher when the interface is up but not associated and only ~5 mA higher when associated compared to interface down and driver not loaded cases. This patch adds support for the mac80211 idle notifications. Chip is put into idle very much the same way when entering into PSM by utilizing the Extreme Low Power (ELP) mode. I.e. idle is entered by setting necessary conditions in wl1251_ps_set_mode followed by a call to wl1251_ps_elp_sleep. It seems it is just enough the authorize ELP mode followed by CMD_DISCONNECT (thanks to Kalle Valo about the idea to use it). Without disconnect command the chip remains somewhat active and stays consuming ~20 mA. Idle mode is left by same way than PSM. The wl1251_join call is used to revert the CMD_DISCONNECT. Without it association to AP doesn't work when trying second time. With this patch the interface up but not associated case the battery current consumption is less than 1 mA higher compared to interface down case.

2011-04-07wl1251: Prepare for idle mode supportJarkko Nikula
RFC for WL1251 idle mode support brought a few issues that are worth to update before adding the idle mode support. Since the idle mode can reuse the code that is now used in Power Save Mode (PSM), the flag psm in struct wl1251 is changed to variable station_mode to be able to distinguish between PSM and idle modes. As the station mode is different than the power power save mode command that is sent to chip, the enum wl1251_cmd_ps_mod values are used only when communicating with the chip and new enum wl1251_station_mode values are used inside the driver. Confusing comment about psm and elp relation is removed since the PSM is actually activated by putting the chip into Entreme Low Power (ELP) mode.

2011-03-11wl1251: fix elp_work race conditionGrazvydas Ignotas
While working on PS I've noticed elp_work is kicking rather often, and sometimes the chip is put to sleep before 5ms delay expires. This seems to happen because by the time wl1251_ps_elp_wakeup is called elp_work might still be pending. After wakeup is done, the processing may take some time, during which 5ms might expire and elp_work might get scheduled. In this case, ss soon as 1st thread finishes work and releases the mutex, elp_work will then put the device to sleep without 5ms delay. In addition 1st thread will queue additional elp_work needlessly. Fix this by cancelling work in wl1251_ps_elp_wakeup instead.

2011-03-11wl1251: remove wl1251_ps_set_elp functionGrazvydas Ignotas
wl1251_ps_set_elp() only does acx_sleep_auth call and takes the chip from/to ELP, however all callers of wl1251_ps_set_mode() have already taken the chip out of ELP and puts it back to ELP when they finish. This makes ELP calls (and register writes they result in) superfluous. So remove wl1251_ps_set_elp function and call acx_sleep_auth directly.

2011-02-25mac80211: make tx() operation return voidJohannes Berg
The return value of the tx operation is commonly misused by drivers, leading to errors. All drivers will drop frames if they fail to TX the frame, and they must also properly manage the queues (if they didn't, mac80211 would already warn). Removing the ability for drivers to return a BUSY value also allows significant cleanups of the TX TX handling code in mac80211. Note that this also fixes a bug in ath9k_htc, the old "return -1" there was wrong.

Implement connection quality monitoring similar to the wl1271 driver. It triggers ieee80211_cqm_rssi_notify with the corresponding event when RSSI drops blow RSSI threshold or rises again above the RSSI threshold. It should be noted that wl1251 doesn't support RSSI hysteresis, instead it uses RSSI averageing and delays events until a certain count of frames proved RSSI change.

2011-02-03wl1251: fix queue stopping/waking for TX pathDavid Gnedt
The queue stopping/waking functionality was broken in a way that could cause the TX to stall if the right circumstances are met. The problem was caused by tx_work, which is scheduled on each TX operation. If the firmware buffer is full, tx_work does nothing. In combinition with stopped queues or non-continues transfers, tx_work is never scheduled again. Moreover the low watermark introduced by 9df86e2e702c6d5547aced7f241addd2d698bb11 never takes effect because of some old code. Solve this by scheduling tx_work every time tx_queue is non-empty and firmware buffer is freed on tx_complete. This also solves a possible but unlikely case: If less frames than the high watermark are queued, but more than firmware buffer can hold. This results in queues staying awake but the only scheduled tx_work doesn't transfer all frames, so the remaining frames are stuck in the queue until more frames get queued and tx_work is scheduled again.

2011-01-21cfg80211: Extend channel to frequency mapping for 802.11jBruno Randolf
Extend channel to frequency mapping for 802.11j Japan 4.9GHz band, according to IEEE802.11 section 17.3.8.3.2 and Annex J. Because there are now overlapping channel numbers in the 2GHz and 5GHz band we can't map from channel to frequency without knowing the band. This is no problem as in most contexts we know the band. In places where we don't know the band (and WEXT compatibility) we assume the 2GHz band for channels below 14. This patch does not implement all channel to frequency mappings defined in 802.11, it's just an extension for 802.11j 20MHz channels. 5MHz and 10MHz channels as well as 802.11y channels have been omitted. The following drivers have been updated to reflect the API changes: iwl-3945, iwl-agn, iwmc3200wifi, libertas, mwl8k, rt2x00, wl1251, wl12xx. The drivers have been compile-tested only.

2010-10-11wl1251: move to it's own directoryKalle Valo
wl1271 driver is under heavy development but on the other hand the older wl1251 driver is currently considered more as a legacy driver. To make it easier to develop wl1271 features move wl1251 to it's own directory, drivers/net/wireless/wl1251. There are no functional changes, only moving of files. One regression is that Kconfig won't be updated automatically and user needs to enable wl1251 manually with an older config file. Signed-off-by: Kalle Valo <kvalo@adurom.com> Signed-off-by: John W.
