2010-01-12mwl8k: update MODULE_FIRMWARE tagsLennert Buytenhek
Add MODULE_FIRMWARE tags for the mwl8k firmware images that don't have them yet, and move them to where the firmware image names are declared. Signed-off-by: Lennert Buytenhek <buytenh@marvell.com> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>
2010-01-12mwl8k: move receive processing to taskletLennert Buytenhek
Like how TX reclaim is done in a tasklet, move receive processing to tasklet context as well. This can have nice benefits for CPU utilisation and throughput, especially at 3-stream rates. (Use the same CLEAR_SEL trick as the TX reclaim tasklet does, to avoid having to touch the interrupt mask registers.) Signed-off-by: Lennert Buytenhek <buytenh@marvell.com> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>
2010-01-12mwl8k: keep TX_DONE interrupt masked while transmit reclaim is runningLennert Buytenhek
By making use of the CLEAR_SEL feature of the mwl8k host interface interrupt controller, we can keep the TX_DONE interrupt source masked while the transmit reclaim tasklet is running (NAPI style) without having to touch the interrupt controller's interrupt mask register when entering or exiting polling mode, and without having to do any more register reads/writes than we do now. When CLEAR_SEL is enabled on the TX_DONE interrupt source, reading the interrupt status register will clear the TX_DONE status bit if it was set, allowing it to be set again if a new TX_DONE event arrives while we are running the TX reclaim tasklet, but such a new event will then not trigger another PCI interrupt until a zero is written to the TX_DONE interrupt status register bit. I.e., if we write a zero to the TX_DONE interrupt source bit in the interrupt status register when the TX reclaim tasklet thinks it's done, a PCI interrupt will be triggered if a new TX_DONE event arrived from the hardware between us deciding that there is no more work to do and re-enabling the TX_DONE interrupt source, thereby avoiding the classic NAPI poll mode exit race that would otherwise occur.

2010-01-12mwl8k: allow limiting the amount of transmit reclaim doneLennert Buytenhek
Add a limit argument to mwl8k_txq_reclaim(), to allow limiting the number of packets that it will reclaim, and make it return the number of packets that it reclaimed. Signed-off-by: Lennert Buytenhek <buytenh@marvell.com> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>
2010-01-12mwl8k: basic AP interface supportLennert Buytenhek
Add support for creating AP interfaces, and enabling beaconing. This allows running a basic AP (11b/g mode only for now). Signed-off-by: Lennert Buytenhek <buytenh@marvell.com> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>

2010-01-12mwl8k: implement AP firmware station database maintenanceLennert Buytenhek
STA firmware uses UPDATE_STADB to manipulate the hardware station database, whereas AP firmware uses SET_NEW_STN -- this implements the latter, and hooks it into mwl8k_sta_notify(), to be used if we're running on AP firmware. Signed-off-by: Lennert Buytenhek <buytenh@marvell.com> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>
2010-01-12mwl8k: add the AP version of USE_FIXED_RATELennert Buytenhek
As with the STA version, unicast will use auto rate adaptation, but the AP version allows setting the rates to be used for management and multicast transmissions, which can be set based on the BSS basic rate set. Signed-off-by: Lennert Buytenhek <buytenh@marvell.com> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>
2010-01-12mwl8k: simplify mwl8k_cmd_use_fixed_rate()Lennert Buytenhek
As we always use the auto rate adaptation feature and never pass in a rate table, USE_FIXED_RATE can be simplified somewhat. While we're at it, rename it to *_sta, as this is the STA version of the command. Signed-off-by: Lennert Buytenhek <buytenh@marvell.com> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>
2010-01-12mwl8k: bump the transmit wait timeout to 5 secondsLennert Buytenhek
While it is reasonable to expect that at least one transmit ring entry will be processed per second while we are waiting for the transmit rings to drain, the firmware can end up doing batching of transmit ring status writeback, which means that the transmit rings can appear stuck for more than a second at a time. Bump the TX drain wait timeout up from 1 to 5 seconds to account for this. Signed-off-by: Lennert Buytenhek <buytenh@marvell.com> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>
2010-01-12mwl8k: undo transmit queue 0/1 swapping in mwl8k_cmd_set_edca_params()Lennert Buytenhek
The comment and code in mwl8k_cmd_set_edca_params() suggest that the mapping between SET_EDCA_PARAMS queue numbers and transmit rings isn't actually 1:1, while tests show that the mapping is in fact 1:1. So, get rid of the transmit queue 0/1 swapping. Signed-off-by: Lennert Buytenhek <buytenh@marvell.com> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>

2010-01-05mwl8k: fix changed flags handling in mwl8k_bss_info_changed()Lennert Buytenhek
Previously, mwl8k_bss_info_changed() would refuse to do anything if the 'changed' argument indicated that the association status hadn't changed.

2010-01-05mwl8k: honor peer rate setLennert Buytenhek
When calling SET_RATE, SET_AID, or when creating a station database entry for our AP, pass in the AP's rate set instead of just blindly enabling all legacy rates, so as to end up doing the right thing when talking to 11b-only APs.

2010-01-05mwl8k: move ->peer_id from mwl8k_vif to mwl8k_staLennert Buytenhek
For STA firmware, move the per-peer hardware station ID to the driver-private part of struct ieee80211_sta, where it belongs. (Since issuing a hardware station database maintenance command sleeps, we can't hold a reference to the ieee80211_sta * across the command, and since we won't know the station ID until after the command completes, we need to re-lookup the sta when the command is done to write the returned station ID back to its driver-private part.)

2009-12-28mwl8k: fix up AP vs. STA firmware image receive descriptor handlingLennert Buytenhek
The receive descriptor ops that are currently marked as being for 8687 only are actually used for all STA firmware images, whereas the receive descriptor ops marked as 8366 are only used on 8366 when an AP firmware image is in use. Rename the receive descriptor ops to reflect this, use the STA ops unconditionally if the firmware image loaded reported the STA ready code, and rename the mwl8k_device_info::rxd_ops member to ap_rxd_ops to indicate that it should only be used if we are running on AP firmware.
