2011-11-28ath5k: Cleanups v2 + add kerneldoc on all hw functionsNick Kossifidis
No functional changes Add kernel doc for all ath5k_hw_* functions and strcucts. Also do some cleanup, rename ath5k_hw_init_beacon to ath5k_hw_init_beacon_timers, remove an unused variable from ath5k_hw_pcu_init and a few obsolete macros, mostly related to XR.

2011-08-08ath5k: clean up base.h and its usePavel Roskin
Remove unnecessary includes from base.h. Add includes to other files as necessary. Don't include base.h unless needed. Move declarations for functions in base.c from ath5k.h to base.h. Use a better named define to protect base.h against double inclusion. Signed-off-by: Pavel Roskin <proski@gnu.org> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>
2011-07-20ath5k: merge ath5k_hw and ath5k_softcPavel Roskin
Both ath5k_hw and ath5k_softc represent one instance of the hardware. This duplication is historical and is not needed anymore. Keep the name "ath5k_hw" for the merged structure and "ah" for the variable pointing to it. "ath5k_hw" is shorter than "ath5k_softc", more descriptive and more widely used. Put the combined structure to ath5k.h where the old ath5k_softc used to be. Move some code from base.h to ath5k.h as needed. Remove memory allocation for struct ath5k_hw and the corresponding error handling. Merge iobase and ah_iobase fields.

Comment the use of local variables to reduce the number of load/store operations on uncached memory, in hopes of not losing this optimization accidentally in the future. Signed-off-by: Felix Fietkau <nbd@openwrt.org> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>
2011-04-12ath5k: remove ts_retry from ath5k_tx_statusFelix Fietkau

2010-11-30ath5k: Reset cleanup and generic cleanupNick Kossifidis
* No functional changes * Clean up reset: Introduce init functions for each unit and call them instead of having everything inside ath5k_hw_reset (it's just c/p for now so nothing changes except calling order -I tested it with various cards and it's ok-) * Further cleanups: ofdm_timings belongs to phy.c rate_duration belongs to pcu.c clock functions are general and belong to reset.c (more to follow) * Reorder functions for better organization: We start with helpers and other functions follow in categories, init functions are last Signed-off-by: Nick Kossifidis <mickflemm@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: John W.

2010-06-16ath5k: review RX descriptor functionsBruno Randolf
Reviewed RX descriptor functions against the HAL sources. Some minor changes: - check size before making changes to the descriptor - whitespace - add comments about 5210 timestamps. this needs to be adressed later! - FIFO overrun error only available on 5210 - rs_phyerr should not be OR'ed - clear the whole ath5k_rx_status structure before using, instead of zeroing specific fields.

2010-06-16ath5k: take descriptor differences between 5210 and 5211 into accountBruno Randolf

2010-06-16ath5k: update 5210/5211 frame typesBruno Randolf
Update 5210 frame types to match the HAL. We have to apply the same bitshift to the constants as we use later. Add 5211 specific frame types. Signed-off-by: Bruno Randolf <br1@einfach.org> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>
2010-06-16ath5k: review and add comments for descriptorsBruno Randolf
I carefully reviewed desh.h against the HAL sources. Added comments and made differences between 5210, 5211 and 5212 more clear by adding _521x to the defines which are specific to that chipset.

2010-06-16ath5k: use direct function calls for descriptors when possibleBruno Randolf
Use direct function calls for ath5k_hw_setup_rx_desc() and ath5k_hw_setup_mrr_tx_desc() instead of a function pointer which always pointed to the same function in the case of ath5k_hw_setup_rx_desc() and which is easily unified in the case of ath5k_hw_setup_mrr_tx_desc(). Also simplify the initialization function for the remaining function pointers. Signed-off-by: Bruno Randolf <br1@einfach.org> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>

2010-04-07ath5k: Adaptive Noise Immunity (ANI) ImplementationBruno Randolf
This is an Adaptive Noise Imunity (ANI) implementation for ath5k. I have looked at both ath9k and HAL sources (they are nearly the same), and even though i have implemented some things differently, the basic algorithm is practically the same, for now. I hope that this can serve as a clean start to improve the algorithm later. This also adds a possibility to manually control ANI settings, right now only thru a debugfs file: * set lowest sensitivity (=highest noise immunity): echo sens-low > /sys/kernel/debug/ath5k/phy0/ani * set highest sensitivity (=lowest noise immunity): echo sens-high > /sys/kernel/debug/ath5k/phy0/ani * automatically control immunity (default): echo ani-on > /sys/kernel/debug/ath5k/phy0/ani * to see the parameters in use and watch them change: cat /sys/kernel/debug/ath5k/phy0/ani Manually setting sensitivity will turn the automatic control off. You can also control each of the five immunity parameters (noise immunity, spur immunity, firstep, ofdm weak signal detection, cck weak signal detection) manually thru the debugfs file. This is tested on AR5414 and nearly doubles the thruput in a noisy 2GHz band. Signed-off-by: Bruno Randolf <br1@einfach.org> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>
2010-03-10ath5k: fixing retries in ath5k_hw_setup_4word_tx_descAndrew Blaich
The rate control algorithm, default is Minstrel for ath5k, determines the number of retries to use for each rate. However, there exists in ath5k_hw_setup_4word_tx_desc (which is called for AR5212 like devices) a set number of retries defined by AR5K_TUNE_HWTXTRIES. The set number of tries is added to the tx_tries0 variable setup by the rate control algorithm. This changes the number of retries the rate control algorithm considers necessary. By removing the AR5K_TUNE_HWTXTRIES from the retry calculation the rate control algorithm is given control over the number of retries.

2010-03-10ath5k: Fix TX/RX padding for all framesBenoit Papillault
Currently, the padding position is based on ieee80211_get_hdrlen_from_skb(). This is not correct since the HW does padding on RX (and expect the same padding to be present on TX) at the following position : - management : 24 + 6 if 4-addr format - control : 24 + 6 if 4-addr format - data : 24 + 6 if 4-addr format + 2 if QoS - invalid : 24 + 6 if 4-addr format whereas ieee80211_get_hdrlen_from_skb() is : - management : 24 - control : 16 except for ACK/CTS where it is 10 - data : 24 + 6 if 4-addr format + 2 if QoS + 2 if QoS & order - invalid : 24 So, correct frames are not affected : management frames do not use 4-addr format, control frames have no body and invalid frames are ... not valid by definition. However, in order to use monitor interface for debugging purpose, one must be able to send/receive any frames, be it correct or not. Such frames are affected by incorrect padding. Moreover, since padding is added on TX, we need to remove it before calling ieee80211_tx_status. This affect TX packets received by monitor interfaces. It has been tested between an ath5k based card (AR5212) and an ar9170usb based card (netgear WNDA3100) using a frame generator and a monitor interface for each card. v2: Added ath5k_add_padding / ath5k_remove_padding Signed-off-by: Benoit Papillault <benoit.papillault@free.fr> Signed-off-by: John W.
