2011-05-13iwlagn: support multiple TBs per commandJohannes Berg
The current "huge" command handling is a bit confusing, and very limited since only one command may be huge at a time. Additionally, we often copy data around quite pointlessly since we could instead map the existing scan buffer for example and use it directly. This patch makes that possible. The first change is that multiple buffers may be given to each command (this change was prepared earlier so callsites don't need to change). Each of those can be mapped attached to a TB in the TFD, and the command header can use a TB (the first one) in the TFD as well. Doing this allows getting rid of huge commands in favour of mapping existing buffers. The beacon transmission is also optimised to not copy the SKB at all but use multiple TBs.

2011-05-10iwlagn: fix iwl_is_any_associatedJohannes Berg
The function iwl_is_any_associated() was intended to check both contexts, but due to an oversight it only checks the BSS context. This leads to a problem with scanning since the passive dwell time isn't restricted appropriately and a scan that includes passive channels will never finish if only the PAN context is associated since the default dwell time of 120ms won't fit into the normal 100 TU DTIM interval. Fix the function by using for_each_context() and also reorganise the other functions a bit to take advantage of each other making the code easier to read.

2011-05-06iwlwifi: support the svtool messages interactions through nl80211 test modeCindy H. Kao
This patch adds the feature to support the test mode operation through the generic netlink channel NL80211_CMD_TESTMODE between intel wireless device iwlwifi and the user space application svtool. The main purpose is to create a transportation layer between the iwlwifi device and the user space application so that the interaction between the user space application svtool and the iwlwifi device in the kernel space is in a way of generic netlink messaging. The detail specific functions are: 1. The function iwl_testmode_cmd() is added to digest the svtool test command from the user space application. The svtool test commands are categorized to three types : commands to be processed by the device ucode, commands to access the registers, and commands to be processed at the driver level(such as reload the ucode). iwl_testmode_cmd() dispatches the commands the corresponding handlers and reply to user space regarding the command execution status. Extra data is returned to the user space application if there's any. 2. The function iwl_testmode_ucode_rx_pkt() is added to multicast all the spontaneous messages from the iwlwifi device to the user space. Regardless the message types, whenever there is a valid spontaneous message received by the iwlwifi ISR, iwl_testmode_ucode_rx_pkt() is invoked to multicast the message content to user space. The message content is not attacked and the message parsing is left to the user space application. Implementation guidelines: 1. The generic netlink messaging for iwliwif test mode is through NL80211_CMD_TESTMODE channel, therefore, the codes need to follow the regulations set by cfg80211.ko to get the actual device instance ieee80211_ops via cfg80211.ko, so that the iwlwifi device is indicated with ieee80211_ops and can be actually accessed. Therefore, a callback iwl_testmode_cmd() is added to the structure iwlagn_hw_ops in iwl-agn.c. 2. It intends to utilize those low level device access APIs from iwlwifi device driver (ie. iwlagn.ko) rather than creating it's own set of device access functions. For example, iwl_send_cmd(), iwl_read32(), iwl_write8(), and iwl_write32() are reused. 3. The main functions are maintained in new files instead of spreading all over the existing iwlwifi driver files. The new files added are : drivers/net/wireless/iwlwifi/iwl-sv-open.c - to handle the user space test mode application command and reply the respective command status to the user space application. - to multicast the spontaneous messages from device to user space. drivers/net/wireless/iwlwifi/iwl-testmode.h - the commonly referenced definitions for the TLVs used in the generic netlink messages Signed-off-by: Cindy H.

2011-04-30iwlagn: prefer BSS contextJohannes Berg
If an interface type changes from a type that is only supported on the PAN context (e.g. P2P GO) to a type that is supported on the BSS context, and the BSS context is not in use, then we need to use the BSS context instead of changing the device type within the context. To achieve this, refuse the type change, which causes a down/up cycle that will allocate the BSS context for the interface.

There are a few cases like the WoWLAN support I'm writing that require attempting to access the NIC when it is known that it might not be accessible, e.g. after the system woke up and the platform might have reset the device.

2011-04-30iwlagn: avoid hangs when restarting deviceJohannes Berg
If a device error happens while the uCode is being loaded or initialised, we will attempt to restart the device (which will likely fail again, but that's not the issue here). During this new restart, we turn off the device, but as the uCode failed to initialise it already is turned off. As a consequence, grabbing NIC access will fail and cause excessive messages and hangs. To fix this issue, introduce a new status bit and only attempt to reprogram the device when it isn't already disabled.

That changed default behaviour of driver. Previously we initialized device to transmit at maximum available power by default.
