block the cleanup of an existing aggregation session, if a retransmission

as possible, and immediately transmitting pending subframes as regular
HT frames instead of waiting for the cleanup to complete.

Drop all pending subframes while keeping track of the Block ACK window

stmmac: consolidate and tidy-up the COE support

The first version of the driver had hard-coded the logic
for handling the checksum offloading.

the STM platforms where:
o MAC10/100 supports no COE at all.
o GMAC fully supports RX/TX COE.

This is not good for other chip configurations where,
for example, the mac10/100 supports the tx csum in HW
or when the GMAC has no IPC.

draft of this patch that only reviewed the IPC for the
GMAC devices.

This patch also helps on SPEAr platforms where the
MAC10/100 can perform the TX csum in HW.
Thanks to Deepak SIKRI for his support on this.

In the end, GMAC devices for STM platforms have
a bugged Jumbo frame support that needs to have
the Tx COE disabled for oversized frames (due to

ath9k: fix enabling ANI / tx monitor after bg scan

ath9k's entire logic with SC_OP_SCANNING is incorrect due to the

we handle it in ath9k. This patch removes the flag completely in
preference for the SC_OP_OFFCHANNEL which is really what we wanted.

The scanning flag was used to ensure we reset ANI to the old values
when we go back to the home channel, but if we are offchannel we
use some defaults. The flag was also used to re-enable the TX monitor.

Without this patch we simply never re-enabled ANI and the TX monitor
after going offchannel. This means that after one background
scan we are prone to noise issues and if we had a TX hang we would
not recover. To get this to work properly we must enable ANI after
we have configured the beacon timers, otherwise hardware acts really
oddly.

ath9k: fix regression on beacon loss after bgscan

When we return to the home channel we were never reseting our beacon
timers, this was casued by the fact that the scanning flag was still
on even after we returned to our home channel. There are also other
reasons why we would get a reset and if we are not off channel
we always need to resynch our beacon timers, because a reset will
clear them.

This bug is a regression introduced on 2.6.36. The order of the
changes are as follows:

5ee08656 - Sat Jul 31 - ath9k: prevent calibration during off-channel activity
a0daa0e7 - Tue Jul 27 - Revert "mac80211: fix sw scan bracketing"

So 5ee08656 would have worked if a0daa0e7 was not committed but
it was so this means 5ee08656 was broken since it assumed that
when we were in the channel change routine the scan flag would
be lifted. As it turns out the scan flag will be set when we
are already on the home channel.

For more details refer to:

http://code.google.com/p/chromium-os/issues/detail?id=5715

These issues will need to be considered for our solution on

Luis R. Rodriguez [Thu, 16 Sep 2010 19:12:26 +0000 (15:12 -0400)]
ath9k: fix power save race conditions

ath9k has a race on putting the chip into network sleep and
having registers read from hardware. The race occurs because
although ath9k_ps_restore() locks its own callers it makes use
of some variables which get altered in the driver at different
code paths. The variables are the ps_enabled and ps_flags.

This is easily reprodicible in large network environments when
roaming with the wpa_supplicant simple bgscan. You'd get some
0xdeadbeef read out on certain registers such as:

ath: timeout (100000 us) on reg 0x806c: 0xdeadbeef & 0x01f00000 != 0x00000000
ath: RX failed to go idle in 10 ms RXSM=0xdeadbeef

ath: timeout (100000 us) on reg 0x7000: 0xdeadbeef & 0x00000003 != 0x00000000
ath: Chip reset failed

The fix is to protect the ath9k_config(hw, IEEE80211_CONF_CHANGE_PS)
calls with a spin_lock_irqsave() which will disable contendors for
these variables from interrupt context, timers, re-entry from mac80211
on the same callback, and most importantly from ath9k_ps_restore()
which is the only call which will put the device into network sleep.

There are quite a few threads and bug reports on these a few of them are:

encryption, software encryption was always used in AP mode, which resulted in a
high CPU load (and/or low thruput) on embedded devices. Instead of trying to
fix the implementation in ath5k it makes more sense to share the code with
ath9k.

This also enables HW encryption for AP mode again.

ath: Copy key cache management functions from ath9k to ath

Copied the key cache management functions from ath9k (common.c and hw.c) to
ath/key.c so we can use them from ath5k, later.

Minor changes have been made:
 - renamed ath9k_* to ath_*
 - replaced ah->caps.keycache_size with common->keymax
 - removed ATH9K_IS_MIC_ENABLED since it is always true.
 - the AR_PCU_MIC_NEW_LOC_ENA flag is replaced with (splitmic == 0).

14 years agonet: enable GRO by default for vlan devices

net: enable GRO by default for vlan devices

Currently vlan devices don't have GRO by default as none of the Ethernet
drivers add NETIF_F_GRO to their vlan_features.

As GRO is a software feature add GRO to dev->vlan_features in
register_netdevice() and let vlan_dev_init() take care that it gets
enabled only when dev->features has NETIF_F_GRO too.
