2014-10-23ath9k: Enable HW queue control only for MCCSujith Manoharan

2014-10-08ath9k: Fix sequence number assignmentSujith Manoharan
Currently, ath9k uses a global counter for all frames that need to be assigned a sequence number. QoS-data frames are handled properly since they have a per-tid counter. But, beacons and other management frames use the same counter even if multiple interfaces or contexts are present. Fix this issue by making the counter per-interface and using it when mac80211 sets IEEE80211_TX_CTL_ASSIGN_SEQ. Signed-off-by: Sujith Manoharan <c_manoha@qca.qualcomm.com> Signed-off-by: John W.

2014-09-26ath9k: Use normal queues for offchannel framesSujith Manoharan
There is no reason why frames marked with IEEE80211_TX_CTL_TX_OFFCHAN have to be sent using the UAPSD queue. Since mac80211 makes sure that RoC is done before pushing an offchannel frame to the driver, we can use the normal TX queues for transmission.

2014-09-26ath9k: Fix queue managementSujith Manoharan
Since we use IEEE80211_HW_QUEUE_CONTROL now, the CAB/Offchannel queues are registered as the last two queues. There is no need to check and reassign the queues in the TX start()/done() routines. CAB frames will not reach the tx() callback since we set IEEE80211_HW_HOST_BROADCAST_PS_BUFFERING and pull the buffered frames during beacon transmission.

2014-07-23ath9k: fix aggregation session lockupFelix Fietkau
If an aggregation session fails, frames still end up in the driver queue with IEEE80211_TX_CTL_AMPDU set. This causes tx for the affected station/tid to stall, since ath_tx_get_tid_subframe returning packets to send.

2014-07-18ath9k: fix pending tx frames accountingFelix Fietkau
Packets originally buffered for the regular hardware tx queues can end up being transmitted through the U-APSD queue (via PS-Poll or U-APSD). When packets are dropped due to retransmit failures, the pending frames counter is not always updated properly. Fix this by keeping track of the queue that a frame was accounted for in the ath_frame_info struct, and using that on completion to decide whether the counter should be updated. This fixes some spurious transmit queue hangs. Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org Signed-off-by: Felix Fietkau <nbd@openwrt.org> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>

2014-04-30ath9k: remove tid->paused flagFelix Fietkau
There are some corner cases where the driver could get stuck with a full tid queue that is paused, leading to a software tx queue hang. Since the tx queueing rework, pausing per-tid queues on aggregation session setup is no longer necessary. The driver will assign sequence numbers to buffered frames when a new session is established, in order to get the correct starting sequence number. mac80211 prevents new frames from entering the queue during setup.

2014-03-13ath9k: Fix sequence number assignment for non-data framesHelmut Schaa
Since commit 558ff225de80ac95b132d3a115ddadcd64498b4f (ath9k: fix ps-poll responses under a-mpdu sessions) non-data frames would have gotten a sequence number from a TIDs sequence counter instead of using the global sequence counter. This can lead to instable connections. To fix this only select the correct TID if we are processing a data frame. Furthermore, prevent non-data frames to get a sequence number from a TID sequence counter by adding a check to ath_tx_setup_buffer.

TX99 support enables Specific Absorption Rate (SAR) testing. SAR is the unit of measurement for the amount of radio frequency(RF) absorbed by the body when using a wireless device. The RF exposure limits used are expressed in the terms of SAR, which is a measure of the electric and magnetic field strength and power density for transmitters operating at frequencies from 300 kHz to 100 GHz. Regulatory bodies around the world require that wireless device be evaluated to meet the RF exposure limits set forth in the governmental SAR regulations.

2013-09-30ath9k: fix powersave response handling for BA session packetsFelix Fietkau
When a packet is passed from mac80211 to the driver with the IEEE80211_TX_CTL_PS_RESPONSE flag set, it bypasses the normal driver internal queueing and goes directly to the UAPSD queue. When that happens, packets that are part of a BlockAck session still need to be tracked as such inside the driver, otherwise it will create discrepancies in the receiver BA reorder window, causing traffic stalls. This only happens in AP mode with powersave-enabled clients.
