20bd2a0952 ath9k_hw: clean up per-channel calibration data
The noise floor history buffer is currently not kept per channel, which
can lead to problems when changing channels from a clean channel to a
noisy one. Also when switching from HT20 to HT40, the noise floor
history buffer is full of measurements, but none of them contain data
for the extension channel, which it needs quite a bit of time to recover
from.

This patch puts all the per-channel calibration data into a single data
structure, and gives the the driver control over whether that is used
per-channel or even not used for some channels.

For ath9k_htc, I decided to keep this per-channel in order to avoid
creating regressions.

For ath9k, the data is kept only for the operating channel, which saves
some space. ath9k_hw takes care of wiping old data when the operating
channel or its channel flags change.

5ee0865615 ath9k: prevent calibration during off-channel activity
Previously the software scan callback was used to indicate to the hardware,
when it was safe to calibrate. This didn't really work properly, because it
depends on a specific order of software scan callbacks vs. channel changes.
Also, software scans are not the only thing that triggers off-channel
activity, so it's better to use the newly added indication from mac80211 for
this and not use the software scan callback for anything calibration related.

This fixes at least some of the invalid noise floor readings that I've seen
in AP mode on AR9160

308883380c ath9k: remove the two wiphys scanning at the same time message
When issuing two consecutive scans you could often end up
getting in the logs:

"ath9k: Two wiphys trying to scan at the same time"

This message is due to a race in mac80211 but addressing
that race requires some more major changes on the driver
and perhaps optimizations on mac80211 like removing the
scan complete callback alltogether. Its too late to address
this this kernel release so supress the complaint and annotate
this needs fixing for later.

6c3118e230 ath9k: Fix bug in starting ani
There are few places where ANI is started without checking
if it is right to start. This might lead to a case where ani
timer would be left undeleted and cause improper memory acccess
during module unload. This bug is clearly exposed with
paprd support where the driver detects tx hang and does a
chip reset. During this reset ani is (re)started without checking
if it needs to be started. This would leave a timer scheduled
even after all the resources are freed and cause a panic.

This patch introduces a bit in sc_flags to indicate if ani
needs to be started in sw_scan_start() and ath_reset().
This would fix the following panic. This issue is easily seen
with ar9003 + paprd.

e36b27aff1 ath9k: add new ANI implementation for AR9003
This adds support for ANI for AR9003. The implementation for
ANI for AR9003 is slightly different than the one used for
the older chipset families. It can technically be used for
the older families as well but this is not yet fully tested
so we only enable the new ANI for the AR5008, AR9001 and AR9002
families with a module parameter, force_new_ani.

The old ANI implementation is left intact.

Details of the new ANI implemention:

  * ANI adjustment logic is now table driven so that each ANI level
    setting is parameterized. This makes adjustments much more
    deterministic than the old procedure based logic and allows
    adjustments to be made incrementally to several parameters per
    level.

  * ANI register settings are now relative to INI values; so ANI
    param zero level == INI value. Appropriate floor and ceiling
    values are obeyed when adjustments are combined with INI values.

  * ANI processing is done once per second rather that every 100ms.
    The poll interval is now a set upon hardware initialization and
    can be picked up by the core driver.

  * OFDM error and CCK error processing are made in a round robin
    fashion rather than allowing all OFDM adjustments to be made
    before CCK adjustments.

  * ANI adjusts MRC CCK off in the presence of high CCK errors

  * When adjusting spur immunity (SI) and OFDM weak signal detection,
    ANI now sets register values for the extension channel too

  * When adjusting FIR step (ST), ANI now sets register for FIR step
    low too

  * FIR step adjustments now allow for an extra level of immunity for
    extremely noisy environments

  * The old Noise immunity setting (NI), which changes coarse low, size
    desired, etc have been removed. Changing these settings could affect
    up RIFS RX as well.

  * CCK weak signal adjustment is no longer used

  * ANI no longer enables phy error interrupts; in all cases phy hw
    counting registers are used instead

  * The phy error count (overflow) interrupts are also no longer used
    for ANI adjustments. All ANI adjustments are made via the polling
    routine and no adjustments are possible in the ISR context anymore

  * A history settings buffer is now correctly used for each channel;
    channel settings are initialized with the defaults but later
    changes are restored when returning back to that channel

  * When scanning, ANI is disabled settings are returned to (INI) defaults.

  * OFDM phy error thresholds are now 400 & 1000 (errors/second units) for
    low/high water marks, providing increased stability/hysteresis when
    changing levels.

  * Similarly CCK phy error thresholds are now 300 & 600 (errors/second)

84642d6bdd ath9k: fix queue stop/start based on the number of pending frames
Because there is a limited number of tx buffers available, once the
queue has been filled to a certain point, ath9k needs to stop accepting
new frames from mac80211. In order to prevent a full WMM queue from
stopping another queue with fewer frames, this patch limits the number
of queued frames to a quarter of the total available tx buffers, minus
some reserved frames to be used for other purposes (e.g. beacons).

Because tx buffers are reserved for frames when they're staged in
software queues as well, the actual queue depth cannot be used for
this, so this patch stores a reference to the tx queue in the ath_buf
struct and keeps track of the total number of pending frames.

03ceedea97 ath9k: Group Key fix for VAPs
When I set up multiple VAPs with ath9k, I encountered an issue that
the traffic may be lost after a while.

The detailed phenomenon is
1. After a while the clients connected to one of these VAPs will get
into a state that no broadcast/multicast packets can be transfered
successfully while the unicast packets can be transfered normally.
2. Minutes latter the unitcast packets transfer will fail as well,
because the ARP entry is expired and it can't be freshed due to the
broadcast trouble.

It's caused by the group key overwritten and someone discussed this
issue in ath9k-devel maillist before, but haven't work out a fix yet.

I referred the method in madwifi, and made a patch for ath9k.
The method is to set the high bit of the sender(AP)'s address, and
associated that mac and the group key. It requires the hardware
supports multicast frame key search. It seems true for AR9160.

Not sure whether it's the correct way to fix this issue. But it seems
to work in my test. The patch is attached, feel free to revise it.

Users wishing to tweak tx power want it to happen immediately,
try to respect that. This was tested by Lorenzo by measuring the

Changing the tx power on the AP produced these results:

1) iwconfig wlan0 txpower 20 ---> Rx power -37dbm
2) iwconfig wlan0 txpower 15 ---> Rx power -41dbm
3) iwconfig wlan0 txpower 10 ---> Rx power -45dbm
4) iwconfig wlan0 txpower 5 ---> Rx power -51dbm
5) iwconfig wlan0 txpower 0 ---> Rx power -37dbm

The result with 0 is an anomoly and would need to be
addressed through a separate patch.

ACK timeout (64 usec).
This patch uses the proper ath9k_hw functions for setting slot time and
timeouts and also implements the switch between short and long slot
time in 2.4 GHz

cc9c378aa5 ath9k: Fix queue handling
The TX queues have to be stopped during an
internal reset. Not handling this would result
in packet loss - fix this.

14acdde6e5 ath9k: re-enable ps by default for new single chip families
The newer single chip hardware family of chipsets have not been
experiencing issues with power saving set by default with recent
fixes merged (even into stable). The remaining issues are only
reported with AR5416 and since enabling PS by default can increase
power savings considerably best to take advantage of that feature
as this has been tested properly.

For more details on this issue see the bug report:

http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=14267

We leave AR5416 with PS disabled by default, that seems to require
some more work.
